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

This is a premarket notification (510(k)) for substantial equivalence for a medical device (an electrotherapy and ultrasound combination unit), not a clinical trial of a diagnostic or AI-driven device. Therefore, there is no "test set" in the sense of a patient cohort evaluated for diagnostic or AI performance.

The "testing" mentioned typically involves internal engineering verification and validation (V&V) to ensure the device meets its design specifications and complies with relevant safety and performance standards. This V&V data is generally proprietary and summarized in the 510(k) submission, not provided in detail here.

  • Sample size for test set: Not applicable in the context of a clinical test set for diagnostic performance. Performance is evaluated against engineering specifications and comparison to the predicate device.
  • Data provenance: Not applicable. The data is internal engineering test data.

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

This is not applicable for this type of 510(k) submission. There is no "ground truth" derived from expert review of cases, as this is not a diagnostic device or an AI application with human-in-the-loop performance evaluation. The "truth" is established by adherence to design specifications and compliance with standards.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This is not applicable for this type of device. Adjudication methods like "2+1" are used in clinical studies where expert consensus is needed to establish a definitive diagnosis or outcome for a test case.

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

This is not applicable. This is not an AI-driven device or a diagnostic imaging system that would involve human readers and AI assistance for interpretation.

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

This is not applicable. This device is a physical therapy unit, not an algorithm or AI system.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (Expert Consensus, Pathology, Outcomes Data, etc.)

This is not applicable in the context of clinical "ground truth." The "ground truth" for this device's performance evaluation would be its conformance to specified electrical and ultrasonic output parameters as measured by calibrated equipment, and verification against design requirements and safety standards. The primary "ground truth" supporting its marketing is its substantial equivalence to the predicate device which has a history of safe and effective use.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This is not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML model that requires a training set.

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

This is not applicable. As it's not an AI/ML model, there is no training set or associated ground truth.

In Summary:

The provided 510(k) summary demonstrates compliance by comparing the proposed device's technical specifications and intended uses to those of a legally marketed predicate device (Sonicator® Plus 940). The acceptance criteria are largely implicit in demonstrating that the Sonicator® Plus 920 performs as intended and is as safe and effective as the predicate device by meeting similar engineering specifications and conforming to recognized electrical and medical device safety standards (e.g., IEC/EN 60601 series, ISO 14971, FDA 21 CFR 1050.10).

The study that "proves" the device meets acceptance criteria, in this context, is the technical comparison report (the "Comparison of Technological Characteristics" tables in the document) and documentation of compliance with various international standards. This type of submission relies on the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate device. Differences are highlighted (e.g., 2 channels vs. 4 channels, minor variations in output parameters or applicator ERAs), and the manufacturer's responsibility is to demonstrate that these differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

§ 890.5860 Ultrasound and muscle stimulator.

(a)
Ultrasound and muscle stimulator for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions —(1)Identification. An ultrasound and muscle stimulator for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions is a device that applies to specific areas of the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and that is intended to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as relief of pain, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, but not for the treatment of malignancies. The device also passes electrical currents through the body area to stimulate or relax muscles.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Ultrasound and muscle stimulator for all other uses —(1)Identification. An ultrasound and muscle stimulator for all other uses except for the treatment of malignancies is a device that applies to the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and applies to the body electrical currents and that is intended for the treatment of medical conditions by means other than the generation of deep heat within body tissues and the stimulation or relaxation of muscles as described in paragraph (a) of this section.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval).(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of PDP is required. A PMA or notice of completion of a PDP for a device described in paragraph (b) of this section is required to be filed with the Food and Drug Administration on or before July 13, 1999 for any ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, on or before July 13, 1999, been found to be substantially equivalent to an ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section shall have an approved PMA or declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
