Accurate data reception and transmission"The Monica IF24 CTG Interface Device accurately receives and transmits the correct data." (Demonstrated through "software validation and performance bench testing").
Substantial Equivalence to predicate devices"The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical tests, performance tests and the validation demonstrate that the Monica IF24 CTG Interface Device is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device."

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

The document does not explicitly state a "test set" in the context of clinical data for the IF24 device. The regulatory submission is primarily based on non-clinical tests (electrical safety, EMC, material safety, software validation, usability, and performance bench testing) to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices (Monica AN24, Philips Avalon CTS).

  • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable or not specified in terms of patient data. The testing involves engineering and software validation tests.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable in terms of patient data. The testing is described as non-clinical and performance bench testing, likely conducted in a laboratory or engineering environment. The manufacturer is Monica Healthcare Ltd, based in Nottingham, UK.

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

This information is not provided in the document. Given the non-clinical nature of the testing described, it's unlikely that "experts" (e.g., radiologists) in the typical sense for medical image interpretation were used for establishing ground truth for a clinical test set. The experts involved would likely be engineers, software testers, and regulatory compliance specialists responsible for executing and evaluating the non-clinical tests.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

Not applicable. There is no mention of an adjudication method for a clinical test set because the provided information focuses on non-clinical and bench testing.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study is not mentioned in the provided text. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence through non-clinical testing of the interface device itself, not on comparing human reader performance with or without AI assistance.

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

The concept of "standalone performance" as typically applied to an AI algorithm making a diagnosis or performing a task without human intervention doesn't directly apply here. The Monica IF24 is an interface device; its "performance" is in accurately receiving and transmitting data, not in making clinical interpretations. The "algorithm" in this context refers to the software controlling the device's functionality (e.g., conversion of wireless digital signal to analog), which was validated through "software validation and performance bench testing" to ensure accurate data handling.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" would be established by:

  • Compliance with published standards: For electrical safety, EMC, material safety, software, usability, and QMS, the ground truth is simply adherence to the requirements outlined in the specified standards (e.g., EN60601-1, IEC 62366).
  • Expected data values/behavior: For "accurate data reception and transmission," the ground truth would be the known input data values from the AN24 and the expected output values and waveform fidelity on the CTG monitor, verified through performance bench testing.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

Not applicable. The Monica IF24 is an interface device, not an AI model that requires a training set in the conventional sense of machine learning for classification or prediction tasks. The software involved handles data conversion and communication, which is validated, not "trained."

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

Not applicable, as there is no mention of a training set for an AI model.
