Device Description

The VAPR VUE Radiofrequency System is DePuy Mitek's next generation of VAPR Radiofrequency Systems. The system consists of a generator, wired or wireless footswitch and electrodes. The VAPR VUE generator was designed to provide comparable RF performance with legacy VAPR electrodes.

As with its predicate devices including the VAPR 3 generator, this electrosurgical system utilizes bipolar technology specifically designed to provide a range of arthroscopic surgical treatments including soft tissue ablation, contouring, cutting and coagulation and temperature control.

The VAPR VUE system offers five output types of operation: Vaporization (ablation), Coagulation, CP Vaporization (ablation), Blended Vaporization (ablation and coagulation) and temperature control coagulation. All types are present in the predicate device (VAPR3 generator) except the CP Vaporization (ablation).

The VAPR P50 and P90 Electrodes are an addition to the family of LPS Electrodes. These Suction Electrodes are soft tissue ablation and coagulation devices intended for use with the VAPR Electrosurgical Systems. They extend the utility of the system by removing bubbles created during activation from the operating site.

The VAPR CP90 Electrodes are identical in technological characteristics as the P90 electrode only it is intended to be run only off the VAPR VUE platform at pre-determined default settings specific for the device. The CP90 with Handcontrols offers the integration of handcontrol capabilities via three buttons molded on the existing one-piece handles. Those buttons control ablation, coagulation and the generator mode functions.

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

The document does not specify sample sizes for "test sets" in the context of clinical performance or accuracy in a medical imaging or diagnostic sense. The testing mentioned (electrical, safety, software, performance) would typically involve engineering verification and validation on the device itself and its components, rather than patient data test sets.

  • Test Set Sample Size: Not applicable/not specified in the provided text for clinical performance. The testing mentioned is for engineering verification and validation.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable, as no clinical/patient data test sets are described. The testing is device-centric.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts

This information is not provided because the submission explicitly states:

  • "No clinical studies are required to demonstrate safety and efficacy of the device in support of an application for premarket clearance."
  • Therefore, there were no "ground truth" derived from expert review of clinical cases.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable as there were no clinical test sets requiring adjudication by experts.

5. 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

  • No MRMC study was done. This device is an electrosurgical tool, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging device. The concept of "human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance" is not relevant to this type of device.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

  • Not applicable. This is a hardware-based electrosurgical system, not an algorithm, and does not operate in a standalone diagnostic capacity.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • No clinical grand truth was used. The "ground truth" for the device's performance is its compliance with engineering specifications, electrical safety standards, software standards, and its ability to achieve its intended physical effects (resection, ablation, coagulation) in laboratory or simulated environments, as demonstrated through non-clinical performance and safety testing.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not applicable. This device does not employ machine learning or AI that would require a "training set" of data.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

  • Not applicable. As no training set was used, no ground truth needed to be established for it.
