This document describes the TRUFORM® Ready-To-Wear Compression Arm Sleeve and TRUFORM® Ready-To-Wear Compression Gauntlet. The acceptance criteria and study detailed below focus on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than establishing de novo performance metrics for a novel technology.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
For the TRUFORM® Compression Arm Sleeve and Gauntlet, the primary acceptance criterion was substantial equivalence to their respective legally marketed predicate devices. This equivalence was assessed in terms of compression (mmHg) and user understanding/usability.
| Acceptance Criterion | Reported Device Performance | Study Type |
|---|---|---|
| Compression (e.g., mmHg) Substantially equivalent to predicate devices in measuring mmHg of compression. | TRUFORM® sleeves and gauntlets were found to be substantially equivalent to Jobst predicate sleeves and gauntlets in measuring mmHg of compression. | Comparative Compression Bench Test |
| Usability and Label Comprehension Over-the-counter purchaser can read and understand instructions and properly use the device. | User studies demonstrated that 100% of responses to questions were "strongly agree" or "agree", indicating successful comprehension and usability. | Usability and Label Comprehension Study |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and the Data Provenance
-
Comparative Compression Bench Test: The sample size for this test is not explicitly stated in the provided document. It refers to comparing "Jobst predicate sleeves and TRUFORM® sleeves" and "Jobst predicate gauntlets and ТЯυFоям® gauntlets," implying multiple units were tested from each.
- Provenance: The provenance of the data is not specified (e.g., country of origin). It appears to be an internal bench test conducted by Surgical Appliance Industries, Inc.
- Retrospective/Prospective: As a bench test, it is inherently prospective in its data collection from the manufactured devices.
-
Usability and Label Comprehension Study: The sample size for this study is not explicitly stated. It refers to "User studies conducted," but does not give a number of participants.
- Provenance: The provenance of the data is not specified. It implies a general user study, likely conducted within the US given the FDA submission.
- Retrospective/Prospective: This was a prospective study, directly involving users interacting with the device and its labeling.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts
This type of information is not applicable to the studies performed for this device.
- For the comparative compression bench test, the "ground truth" was established by objective compression measurements (mmHg) using standard methods, not expert interpretation.
- For the usability and label comprehension study, the "ground truth" was established by direct user responses and their ability to successfully use the product. Experts were not used for ground truth establishment.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable to the studies performed.
- The comparative compression test relied on quantitative measurements, not subjective interpretation requiring adjudication.
- The usability study relied on direct user feedback; any inconsistencies in responses would typically be analyzed rather than adjudicated by experts.
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
There was no MRMC comparative effectiveness study done. This device is a medical compression garment, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
There was no standalone (algorithm only) performance study done. This device is a physical compression garment.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
- Comparative Compression Bench Test: The ground truth was objective physical measurement of compression (mmHg). This is a direct physical property of the device, not based on expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data.
- Usability and Label Comprehension Study: The ground truth was direct user feedback and observed user behavior demonstrating comprehension and proper usage.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
There was no "training set" in the context of an AI/machine learning model, as this device is a physical product and not an AI-driven system.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
As there was no training set for an AI/machine learning model, this question is not applicable.
