Intended Use

The SecurAcath PICC is indicated for short or long term peripheral access to the central venous system. The catheter may be used for intravenous therapy, power injection of contrast media, blood sampling and/or infusion therapy. The maximum recommended infusion rate is 5 m/sec and the maximum pressure of power injectors may not exceed 300 psi. The SecurAcath PICC includes means to secure the catheter via a subcutaneous anchor below the insertion site.

Device Description

The SecurAcath is a single use, sterile, flexible PICC catheter with a useful lengths of up to 55 cm. The length of the catheter has markings at 1 cm interval to allow the user to trim the catheter to the required length. The catheter has a built in subcutaneous securement mechanism to stabilize and keep the catheter in place. The catheter has two lumens which are identical in properties and characteristics.

The device is compatible with all 0.018" and smaller guidewires. The proximal end of the catheter has the standard radiology PICC configuration plus the activation mechanism of the securement system built into the Y-body. The catheter has been tested to be compatible with MRI (MR conditional) and use with power contrast injectors.

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the 510(k) summary for the SecurAcath PICC, a catheter used for central venous access. Since the provided text focuses on regulatory approval and substantial equivalence, the performance data section is brief, and specific acceptance criteria with reported device performance in a detailed table or a structured study narrative are not explicitly presented.

Based on the provided information, the following can be extracted:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document states that "The performance test data is provided in the 510(k) submission. The performance data demonstrates that the device meets all the product specifications." However, specific acceptance criteria values and corresponding reported performance metrics are not detailed in the provided text.

The document lists broader categories of performance testing:

Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance
BiocompatibilityMeets specifications
Dimensional VerificationMeets specifications
Securement ReliabilityMeets specifications
Catheter Tensile StrengthMeets specifications
Power Injection CapabilitiesMeets specifications

Additionally, it states:

  • Maximum recommended infusion rate: 5 ml/sec
  • Maximum pressure of power injectors: 300 psi
  • MRI Compatibility: MR conditional
  • Guidewire compatibility: 0.018" and smaller guidewires

These points could be considered part of the performance specifications the device aims to meet.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not specify the sample size used for the test set. It also does not mention the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective nature of the data). The performance data mentioned appears to be derived from in-house testing rather than clinical study data.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

This information is not provided in the document. The performance data seems to be based on engineering and laboratory testing rather than expert-derived ground truth from human interpretation.

4. Adjudication Method

This information is not provided in the document. Given the nature of the listed performance tests (e.g., biocompatibility, tensile strength), an adjudication method in the context of expert review would likely not be relevant.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

There is no mention of an MRMC comparative effectiveness study, nor any assessment of human readers improving with or without AI assistance. This device is a medical catheter, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only)

This information is not applicable. The SecurAcath PICC is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or software. Standalone performance for an algorithm would not be relevant in this context.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the device's performance appears to be established through engineering specifications, laboratory test methods, and compliance with industry standards for similar medical devices. For example, biocompatibility would be assessed against established biological safety standards, and tensile strength against predefined mechanical limits.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not applicable. As a physical medical device, it does not involve a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI.

9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This information is not applicable as there is no training set for this device.
