Intended Use

The Spacelabs Arkon Anesthesia Workstation is intended for use in the hospital environment and operating room. It may be used for the delivery of oxygen, air and nitrous oxide in a controlled manner to various patient breathing circuits with or without the use of mechanical ventilator, and may be used for the delivery of anesthetic vapor by use of a dismountable vaporizer.

The device is intended for use only by a suitably qualified physician.

Device Description

The Spacelabs Arkon Anesthesia Workstation (Arkon) is an anesthesia workstation that contains all the pneumatic circuitry, controls, monitoring, ancillaries and storage required to control, distribute and mix medical gases and anesthetic agents in order to deliver them to a patient system. It is capable of delivering oxygen, air and nitrous oxide in a controlled manner to various patient breathing circuits with or without the use of a mechanical ventilator, and may be used for the delivery of anesthetic vapor by use of a dismountable vaporizer.

AI/ML Overview

The Spacelabs Arkon Anesthesia Workstation (Arkon) underwent various performance and safety tests to demonstrate substantial equivalence to its predicate device. This submission does not contain information typically associated with AI/ML device performance studies (e.g., sample sizes for test/training, number of experts, specific metrics like sensitivity/specificity for diagnostic tasks). Instead, it focuses on compliance with established medical device standards for hardware and software.

Here's a breakdown of the available information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The device performance is reported as compliance with the listed standards and its predetermined specifications. Since this is a traditional medical device submission, the "acceptance criteria" are the successful completion of tests outlined by the referenced standards, and "reported device performance" is the statement that the Arkon complies with these standards.

Acceptance Criteria (Standard Compliance)Reported Device Performance
Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-1: 2009Materials comply with the standard.
Software Testing:Arkon software complies with predetermined specifications and applicable standards/guidance documents (FDA guidance: The content of premarket submissions for software, Off-the-shelf software use, General principles of software validation; IEC 62304: 2006, ISO 14971: 2007).
Electrical Safety Testing: IEC 60601-1: 1988 (Am1: 1991, Am2: 1995), UL 60601-1: 2006Arkon complies with the applicable standards.
Electromagnetic Compatibility Testing: IEC 60601-1-2: 2007Arkon complies with the applicable standard.
Performance Testing (Various Standards): IEC 60601-1-6: 2004, IEC 60601-1-8: 2006, ASTM F1101-90 (2003) e1, CGA C-9: 2004, CGA V-5: 2008, IEC 60601-2-13: 2003 (Am1: 2006), IEC 62366: 2007, ISO 5356-1: 2004, ISTA Procedure IBArkon complies with its predetermined specifications and the applicable standards.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

  • This is not applicable in the context of this 510(k) summary. The submission describes compliance with engineering and safety standards for a physical medical device, not a data-driven AI/ML system that would typically have a "test set" of patient data. The "tests" here refer to engineering verification and validation activities.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

  • Not applicable for this type of medical device submission. Ground truth, in the AI/ML sense, is not established for this device's performance claims.

4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

  • Not applicable.

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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is an anesthesia workstation, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or decision-support tool for human readers.

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

  • Not applicable. The device is a physical workstation that delivers gases and anesthetic agents, not a standalone algorithm. Its software is integral to its function, and its performance is assessed through compliance with software development and safety standards rather than standalone algorithmic performance metrics.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

  • Not applicable in the traditional sense for AI/ML. The "ground truth" for the Arkon is defined by the technical specifications for its various components (pneumatic circuitry, controls, monitoring, etc.) and the requirements stipulated by the referenced industry and regulatory standards for safety and performance (e.g., electrical safety limits, biocompatibility profiles, ventilator performance parameters).

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device relying on a "training set" of data.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

  • Not applicable.

Dear Mr. Kroenke:

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.
