The IntubaidFlex" is intended for use as an aid in the placement of an Endotracheal Tube (ETT) directly or through an Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) during non difficult and difficult intubation procedures. The IntubaidFlex achieves its purpose by providing the user with a visual confirmation of where the tip of the device is in the human anatomy. The flexible tip of the IntubaidFlex allows the user to guide the ETT in the desired direction.
The IntubaidFlex" is a simple, disposable, single-patient use, sterile, handheld, portable stylet with a built in camera, that fits within an Endotracheal tube (ETT) directly or through an Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway(LMA) and provides for video-assisted visualization of the laryngeal inlet. The IntubaidFlex" can plug into any TV monitor, hand held monitor or PC (via USB) for live video visualization.
The provided text describes a medical device, the IntubaidFlex™, and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device for 510(k) clearance. However, it does not contain information about acceptance criteria, reported device performance in those criteria, or a study that specifically proves the device meets those criteria, particularly in the context of AI/ML performance.
The submission is for a medical device (a stylet/videoscope) and not an AI/ML powered device. The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through biocompatibility, electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and bench testing, as well as outlining its intended use.
Therefore, most of the requested information regarding AI/ML-specific acceptance criteria and studies cannot be extracted from this document.
Here's what can be answered based on the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
| Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Test/Standard | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Biocompatibility | ISO 10993 | In compliance |
| Electrical Safety | IEC 60601-1 | In compliance |
| EMC | IEC 60601-1-2 | In compliance |
| Bench Testing | ISO 8600-3 | In compliance |
| Bench Testing | ISO 8600-5 | In compliance |
| Bench Testing | Tensile Strength Test | Joints withstand 5.0 lb tensile load |
| Bench Testing | Drop Test | Withstands a 36-inch fall |
| Bench Testing | Fatigue Test | Plunger withstands multiple actuations without affecting image functionality |
Regarding the other requested information (2-9):
The provided text does not include the following information, as it pertains to a traditional medical device submission and not an AI/ML driven one:
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable to this type of device submission. The "test set" here refers to physical bench tests rather than data for an algorithm.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for a physical device's performance in these categories (biocompatibility, electrical safety, mechanical strength) is established through standardized laboratory testing, not expert consensus on data.
- Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
- If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable. This is not an AI-powered device.
- If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is not an AI-powered device.
- The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): Not applicable in the context of an AI/ML algorithm. Ground truth for this device's performance relies on physical and electrical measurements against established standards.
- The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is not an AI-powered device.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable. This is not an AI-powered device.

Description of Device: 5.4.
The IntubaidFlex" is a simple, disposable, single-patient use, sterile, handheld, portable stylet with a built in camera, that fits within an Endotracheal tube (ETT) directly or through an Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway(LMA) and provides for video-assisted visualization of the laryngeal inlet. The IntubaidFlex" can plug into any TV monitor, hand held monitor or PC (via USB) for live video visualization.
5.5. Intended Use
The IntubaidFlex™ is intended for use as an aid in the placement of an Endotracheal Tube (ETT) directly or through an Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) during non difficult and difficult intubation procedures. The IntubaidFlex achieves its purpose by providing the user with a visual confirmation of where the

{1}------------------------------------------------
tip of the device is in the human anatomy. The flexible tip of the IntubaidFlex allows the user to guide the ETT in the desired direction.
5.6. Comparison to Predicate Device:
The EZC Medical's IntubaidFlex™ is substantially equivalent to ETView Tracheoscopic Ventilation Tube (TVTTM) in intended use and operation (K082420).
Both the devices are endoscopic, and transmit images through a video camera to a video monitor and use a light source for illumination. Both the devices are disposable, single-patient use, sterile, have an embedded video camera, an embedded light source, and an integrated cable which connects to the video monitor.
The devices are different in design. The IntubaidFlex™ is an accessory to the ETT, where as TVT" is an Endotracheal Tube by itself. The IntubaidFlex " has an articulation capability, which TVT" does not have.
However, these differences do not impact the intended use or optical performance of the IntubaidFlex. The testing described below demonstrates that the differences in the devices do not raise any unresolved issues of safety or efficacy.
EZC Medical concludes that the devices are substantially equivalent.
5.7. Summary of Supporting Data:
Biocompatibility data demonstrates that the device is in compliance with ISO 10993.
Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility data demonstrates that the device is in compliance with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2.
Bench testing has demonstrated that the device is in compliance with ISO 8600-3 and ISO 8600-5. In addition the bench testing included the Tensile Strength test, Drop test and Fatigue test. The Tensile Strength Test demonstrated that joints can withstand a 5.0 lb tensile load, the Drop Test demonstrated that the device can withstand a 36 inch fall and the Fatigue test demonstrated that the plunger can withstand multiple actuations without affecting the image functionality of the device.
