AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Bionix Omni V SBRT Positioning System. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than presenting a detailed study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria through quantitative performance metrics.

Therefore, the requested information (acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, ground truth types, and training set sizes) cannot be fully extracted from this document because it is not typically included in a 510(k) summary for a device of this nature (a patient positioning system).

Here's what can be gathered and why other information is unavailable:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Not explicitly stated as quantitative performance metrics in this 510(k). The criteria rely on similarity to predicate devices rather than numerical thresholds.The Bionix Omni V SBRT Positioning System is described as "similar in design, features, radiolucency, and function" to the legally marketed BodyFix and BodyLoc systems. It performs "as well as" these predicate devices for stereotactic localization and positioning.

Explanation of "Acceptance Criteria" for this device:

For this type of device (a patient positioning system, classified as an accessory to an accelerator), the "acceptance criteria" for 510(k) clearance are primarily demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices. This means showing that the new device is as safe and effective as the predicate. The FDA does not have voluntary standards for this specific device type, meaning there are no pre-defined numerical thresholds the device needs to meet.

The document demonstrates equivalence by comparing:

  • Intended Use: Identical.
  • Design and Function: Similar components (base-plate, vacuum cushions, fixation/immobilization methods, reference systems).
  • Materials: Both use radiolucent materials (carbon fiber/foam composite for BodyFix, acrylic sheet for BodyLoc, acrylic/PVC alloy for Omni V).
  • Performance (qualitative): The Omni V is designed to achieve reproducible patient positioning and localization, minimize organ movement (via breath-suppression), and provide an external reference system, similar to the predicate devices.

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

  • Sample Size: Not applicable/Not provided. The 510(k) summary does not describe a performance study with a test set of patients or medical images.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable/Not provided.

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

  • Number of Experts: Not applicable/Not provided. No ground truth establishment is described for a performance study.
  • Qualifications of Experts: Not applicable/Not provided.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • Adjudication Method: Not applicable/Not provided. No test set adjudication is described.

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

  • MRMC Study: No. This type of study is typically done for diagnostic imaging devices where human readers interpret results, comparing performance with and without AI assistance. This device is a physical positioning system, not an imaging interpretation algorithm.
  • Effect Size of Human Reader Improvement: Not applicable.

6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only):

  • Standalone Study: No. This device is physical hardware, not a software algorithm used for standalone performance assessment. The "performance" is implicitly tied to its physical properties and design, verified through comparison to predicate devices, rather than a standalone algorithm test.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • Type of Ground Truth: Not applicable/Not provided. No performance study requiring ground truth is described. For this device, "ground truth" would relate to its physical properties (e.g., attenuation, rigidity, reproducibility of indexing), which are assessed through engineering design and comparison to existing products, rather than clinical outcomes or pathology from a dataset.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • Sample Size: Not applicable/Not provided. This device is a physical product, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

  • How Ground Truth Established: Not applicable/Not provided. As above, no training set or associated ground truth is relevant for this device type.

In summary: The provided 510(k) summary is for a physical medical device (patient positioning system) demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices using design, function, and material comparisons. It does not contain information about studies involving patient data, expert reviews, or algorithm performance metrics, as these are not typically required for this classification of device seeking 510(k) clearance by this method. The "acceptance criteria" are met by demonstrating the device is as safe and effective as the already-marketed predicate devices.

Intended Use:

The Omni V SBRT Positioning System from Bionix Development Corporation is intended to be used for stereotactic localization and positioning of patients undergoing or receiving a course of external beam radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer and other diseases.

Substantial Equivalence Device(s):

This product is similar in design and function to existing patient positioning devices currently in use as accessories to radiation therapy systems. One such device is the BodyFix, manufactured and legally marketed by Medical Intelligence, Germany. This device is listed under regulation number 892.5050, Accessory, Accelerator, Linear, Medical, and is classified as a Class II device. This device has been cleared by the FDA under K013391.

{1}------------------------------------------------

The BodyFix immobilization device is used to immobilize a patient in a fashion that allows stereotactic localization and verification of position. The BodyFix uses a reference system which is external to the patient's body. Using this reference system, the coordinates of a target can be reproducibly localized during a course of radiation therapy. The BodyFix uses a vacuum cushion posteriorly to position the patient, then achieves immobilization with a vacuum sheet anteriorly that evacuates to conform tightly to the patient's body.

Another such device is the BodyLoc system manufactured and legally marketed by Medical Instrumentation & Diagnostics Corporation (MIDCO), San Diego, CA. This device is listed under regulation number 892.5050, Accessory, Accelerator, Linear, Medical, and is classified as a Class II device. This device has been cleared by the FDA under K991336.

The MIDCO BodyLoc system is designed to immobilize and position patients for a course of stereotactic radiation therapy. The BodyLoc system achieves patient immobilization by the use of a vacuum molded cushion system for posterior areas, and low-melt thermoplastic (anteriorly) to cover large body surfaces in the anterior plane. The method of combined anterior and posterior form fitting custom molded immobilization materials that cover wide surface areas improves immobilization and repositioning, as well as minimizes diaphragmatic movements.

The BodyLoc is a body stereotactic localizer system which utilizes a coordinate reference system that can be used to reproducibly localize targets during diagnostic and treatment procedures. Patients immobilized in the frame are imaged with CT and/or MR imaging to localize the target area. The BodyLoc uses stereotactic localization fiducials positioned in the sides and base of the device, as well as a moveable arc localizer for target alignment. Targets are calculated and the patient, again immobilized in the frame, is positioned on the LINAC couch according to calculated stereotactic targets.

Device Description:

Overview.

This pre-market notification is being submitted in good faith in an effort to satisfy the requirements of the FDAMA guidelines. Additionally, the FDA does not have any voluntary standards for this device and no standards have been applied.

The Bionix Omni V stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) positioning system is intended to be used for stereotactic localization and positioning of patients undergoing or receiving a course of external beam radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. This device has been most likely classified as Class II by the FDA Panel on Radiology, falling under CFR 892.5050.

The Bionix Omni V SBRT system has been designed using the design control procedures of the Bionix Quality System in compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice

{2}------------------------------------------------

(GMP) Quality System Regulations of the FDA/CDRH. This pre-market notification will draw information from the Design History File for this device and format it for efficient review.

Background and Principles of Operation.

The Bionix Omni V stereotactic body radiation therapy positioning system is intended to be used for stereotactic localization and positioning of patients undergoing or receiving a course of external beam radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer and other cliseases.

The Omni V SBRT positioning system from Bionix Development Corporation has several component parts that are designed to work together to provide an easy to use means of reproducibly positioning a patient undergoing external beam stereotactic radiation therapy.

The Omni V system starts with the thermoformed base. The base is thermoformed from an acrylic/PVC alloy material so that the resulting contoured sheel is light-weight and thin-walled, providing low attenuation for unobstructed passage of the radiation therapy beam. This construction forms a light-weight, radiolucent, rigidly stable base support for the system. The base has molded-in attachment points for the other components of the system: the body support vacuum cushion, the upper arm support, and the thigh and foot bolster. Integrated rails that run the length of either side of the base provide attachment points for the breath-suppression and fiducial arches. The rails and attornment points are indexed to allow for reproducible positioning of the patient.

The Omni V thermoformed acrylic/PVC alloy shell displays minimal attenuation of the radiotherapy beam. This is due primarily to the fact that the thermoformed shell is relatively thin, with an open, air filled core that is radiolucent. The resulting structure provides strength and rigidity, and is ideal for producing a device that reproducibly positions patients and yet does not interfere with the administration of therapeutic radiation. Patient positioning devices with this type of structure are common in adiation therapy.

The Omni V base has attachment holes that allow it to mate with an attachment bar that can lock onto the treatment couch tabletop. This allows the Omni V SBRT system to be repeatedly located in the same position on the treatment couch tabletop for each therapy session.

The Omni V base has specific topographic features-central thermoformed opening and contoured ridges-that allow the use of a body support vacuum cushion as part of the patient immobilization process. These topographic features act to locate the body support vacuum cushion and lock it in place. Vacuum cushions contain expanded polystyrene beads in an airtight vinyl bag, with a valve for attachment to a vacuum pump. In practice, the patient is positioned atop the bag which is then evacuated using the vacuum pump. As the bag is evacuated, the polystyrene beads form a rigid cushion that accurately conforms to the contours of the patient's anatomy, and also to the contours of the

Bionix Development Corporation

{3}------------------------------------------------

thermoformed opening in the base. The latter allows the vacuum cushion to locate reproducibly onto the Omni V base, while the patient can be reproducibly located into the impression formed into the vacuum cushion. ·

The body support vacuum cushion for the Omni V SBRT positioning system differs from common vacuum cushions in significant ways. First, it is longer than average, allowing full support of the body from legs to head. This is needed to provide immobilization for the entire body, not just a small portion. Second, the Omni V body support vacuum cushions have multiple chambers, rather than one large, single-chambered bag. This novel approach allows separate body segments to be molded individually, giving greater control of the molding procedure to the radiation therapists and improving the body fixation process.

Patients undergoing stereotactic radiation therapy have to lie in one position for a lengthy time period. The Omni V SBRT system upper arm support takes the pressure off the arms, allowing the patient to remain comfortable and motionless during the treatment session. The Omni V upper arm support has two parts, a wing board that provides support for the patient's upper arms and assists positioning and molding of the upper body support vacuum cushion, and an arm rest. Both the wing board and the arm rest interlock with the Omni V base using the molded-in attachment points in the base. To account for patient size differences and comfort, the arm rest is adjustable and indexed for reproducibility.

To further position and immobilize the lower extremities, the Omni V features a thigh and foot bolster. Similar to the upper arm support, this component positions and holds the thighs and feet motionless during the treatment session. The thigh and foot bolster locks into the device base using the attachment points molded into the base. JIn use, the thigh and foot bolster will abut the patient support cushion to provide total body support for the patient. Again, like other components in this system, the thigh and foot bolster is adjustable and indexed for reproducibility.

Many internal organs, notably the lungs and prostate, show significant positional change with the act of respiration. Studies have shown that these positional changes can vange from millimeters to several centimeters with the prostate. This can lead to treatment field errors, and/or the need to expand the treatment field to include the entire region.nf rien movement. To improve treatment accuracy in stereotactic radiation therapy, it is desirable to reduce organ movement associated with respiration by limiting the respiratory effort. In the Omni V SBRT system, this is done by suppressing chest wall movement during respiration by applying pressure to the chest via the breath-suppression arch.

The breath-suppression arch attaches to the rails that run the length of either side of the Omni V base. The function of the breath-suppression arch is to apply compressive pressure to the chest to reduce chest-wall movement with breathing. The arch is designed to slide along the rails, allowing the therapist to locate the arch over the patient's donest, and then is locked into position on the rails, providing reproducible, indexed positioning.

{4}------------------------------------------------

A chest compression plate is lowered from the apex of the breath-suppression arch contacting the chest wall; this plate is lowered until the patient's chest wall movement is minimized without compromising the patient's respiratory ability. The Omni V SBRT system also includes a fiducial arch that slides along and fixes onto the rails of the thermoformed base in an indexed fashion, similar to the breathsuppression arch. The fiducial arch has markings that are visible on x-ray and MRI, providing a reference system that is external to the body. Using the fiducial arch, the coordinates of a target can be accurately and reproducibly localized during both the setup/simulation procedures and through a course of radiation therapy.

In clinical practice, the Bionix Omni V stereotactic body radiation therapy positioning system base is secured to the therapy couch tabletop by attachment to a lock-down bar. The patient is positioned on the Omni V, using the components of the Omni V SBRT system-body support vacuum cushion, upper arm support, and thigh and foot bolsterto immobilize the patient in a comfortable, indexed, and reproducible position. The breath-suppression arch is moved and lowered to constrain chest wall movement, and the fiducial arch is positioned to provide an external reference system to ensure treatment accuracy. Once positioned, the patient can then undergo simulation for treatment planning purposes, or begin his/her course of external beam radiation therapy as prescribed.

Comparison to Predicate Device:

This Omni V from Bionix Development Corporation is similar in design and function to existing patient positioning devices currently in use as accessories to radiation theraby systems. One such device is the BodyFix, manufactured and legally marketed by Medical Intelligence, Germany. The BodyFix immobilization device is used to immobilize a patient in a fashion that allows stereotactic localization and verification of position.

The principal parts of the BodyFix system are the base-plate, the vacuum cushion, fixation sheet, and the target positioner and localizer. The BodyFix base-plate is constructed of a carbon fiber/foam composite material for enhanced radiolucency. Such structures are commonplace in radiation therapy positioning products to provide rigidity and support while at the same time minimizing attenuation of the radiation therapy beam.

The base of the Omni V SBRT system is thermoformed from an acrylic/PVC alloy material. Such materials are commonly used in radiation therapy positioning devices to provide radiolucency and rigidity. The resulting base-plate for the Omni V is lightweight and thin-walled, providing low attenuation for unobstructed passage of the radigition therapy beam.

The BodyFix uses a vacuum cushion posteriorly to position the patient. Vacuum cushions contain expanded polystyrene beads in an airtight vinyl bag, with a value for attachment to a vacuum pump. In practice, the patient is positioned on the bag which is then evacuated using the vacuum pump. As the bag is evacuated, the nolystyrene beads form a rigid cushion that accurately conforms to the contours of the patient.

{5}------------------------------------------------

The Omni V also uses a patient support vacuum cushion, but it differs from common vacuum cushions in significant ways. First, it is longer than average, allowing full support of the body from legs to head. This is needed to provide immobilization for the entire body, not just a small portion. Second, the Omni V body support vacuum round have multiple chambers, rather than one large, single-chambered bag. This novel approach allows separate body segments to be molded individually, giving greater control of the molding procedure to the radiation therapists and improving the body fixation process.

Final patient immobilization in the BodyFix is achieved with a vacuum sheet anteriorly that evacuates to conform tightly to the patient's body. This limits bath patient movement as well as chest wall excursion during respiration.

For the Bionix Omni V, full patient immobilization is achieved by combining the body support vacuum cushion positioning with that of the upper arm support and the thire and foot bolster, all of which index to the thermoformed base-plate. Chest excursion during respiration is minimized through use of the breath-suppression. Ch.

The BodyFix uses a target positioner and localizer that are indexed to the base-plate to produce a reference system which is external to the patient's body. U ting this stereotactic system, the coordinates of a target can be reproducibly localized during a course of radiation therapy.

In similar fashion, the fiducial arch of the Bionix Omni V SBRT system provides an external reference system that may be used to reproducibly localize the patient during a course of radiation therapy.

Another such device is the BodyLoc system manufactured and legally marketed by Medical Instrumentation & Diagnostics Corporation (MIDCO), San Diego, CA. The MIDCO BodyLoc system is designed to immobilize and position patients for a course of stereotactic radiation therapy.

The main component parts of the MIDCO BodyLoc system are the base-plate, the posterior vacuum cushion, the anterior low-melt thermoplastic body mask, the stereotactic localization fiducials positioned in the sides and base of the device, and a moveable arc localizer for target alignment.

The MIDCO BodyLoc base-plate is constructed from acrylic sheet material. While commonly used in radiation therapy positioning devices due to its low cost and machineability, acrylic does not have the lower radiation attenuation values seen with thermoformed structures such as are used in the Bionix Omni V. The Omni V acrylic/PVC alloy thermoformed base is light-weight and thin walled yielding superior radiolucency while maintaining rigidity for patient support.

{6}------------------------------------------------

The BodyLoc system achieves patient immobilization by the use of a vacuum molded cushion system for posterior areas, and low-melt thermoplastic (anteriorly) to cover large body surfaces in the anterior plane. The method of combined anterior and posterior form fitting custom molded immobilization materials that cover wide surface areas improves immobilization and repositioning, as well as minimizes diaphragmatic movements.

The Bionix Omni V uses a unique, multi-chambered body support vacuum cushion to position the patient. This novel approach allows separate body segments to be molded individually, giving greater control and ease to the therapists and improving the body fixation process.

Low-melt thermoplastic is not used in the Omni V. Instead, full patient immobilization is achieved by combining the body support vacuum cushion positioning with that of the upper arm support and the thigh and foot bolster, all of which index to the thermoformed base. Chest excursion during respiration is minimized through use of the breathsuppression arch.

The BodyLoc has a body stereotactic localizer system which utilizes a coordinate reference system that can be used to reproducibly localize targets during diagnasti and treatment procedures. The BodyLoc uses stereotactic localization fiducials positioned in the sides and base of the device, as well as a moveable arc localizer for taxet aligned in Targets are calculated and the patient, again immobilized in the frome, is positioned on the LINAC couch according to calculated stereotactic targets.

In similar fashion, the fiducial arch of the Bionix Omni V SBRT system provides an external reference system that may be used to reproducibly localize the patient during a course of radiation therapy.

Conclusion:

The similarity of design, features, radiolucency, and function indicate that the Omni V stereotactic body radiation therapy positioning system from Bionix Development Corporation will perform as well as the legally marketed BodyFix system from Medical Intelligence and the legally marketed BodyLoc system from MIDCO for the intended use of stereotactic localization and positioning of patients undergoing or receiving a ourse of external beam radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer and other diseases.
