AI/ML Overview

This document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device, specifically Dr. Fresh Dry Mouth Mouthwash, and focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This type of submission does not typically involve detailed clinical studies with acceptance criteria based on quantifiable performance metrics of the device as it would for a novel device. Instead, the "study" is a comparison to an already approved device.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

For a 510(k) submission, the "acceptance criteria" are typically defined by demonstrating that the new device has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as a legally marketed predicate device, and that any differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. The reported "device performance" is the comparison itself.

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

  • Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of this 510(k) summary. There is no "test set" of patient data for performance evaluation in the way a clinical trial would have. The "test" is the comparison of characteristics.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable. The "data" are the technical characteristics of the device being compared to a predicate, not patient data from a study.

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

  • Not applicable. Ground truth, in the sense of expert consensus on patient outcomes or diagnoses, is not established for this type of submission. The "ground truth" is essentially the established characteristics and regulatory approval of the predicate device. The FDA's review committee (Division of Anesthesiology, General Hospital, Infection Control and Dental Devices) acts as the expert body determining substantial equivalence.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Not applicable for the reasons stated above. The "adjudication" is the FDA's regulatory decision based on the submitted information.

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

  • Not applicable. This device is an artificial saliva substitute, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive technology. Therefore, an MRMC study is irrelevant to this submission.

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

  • Not applicable. This device is a physical product (mouthwash), not an algorithm or an AI system.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • The "ground truth" in this context is the established regulatory acceptance and performance profile of the legally marketed predicate device, GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Biotene Dry Mouth Oral Rinse (K101477). The substantial equivalence argument relies on demonstrating that the new device is sufficiently similar to this already approved device.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not applicable. This is not a machine learning model, so there is no "training set."

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

  • Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device submission.

Dear Ms. Thornton:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
