Device Description

Low profile Gastrostomy feeding tube and accessories to facilitate nutrition, medication delivery, and gastric decompression for single patient use.

The Kimberly-Clark* MIC-KEY* SF Low Profile Gastrostomy Tube external feeding head, feeding catheter, and disc-shaped retention balloon are manufactured with polyurethane. The feeding catheter is inserted into the stomach through a secured or formed stoma and is held in place with a retention balloon that is filled with sterile or distilled water. The device is provided with feeding catheter outer diameters that range from 10Fr to 24Fr, and with feeding tube lengths that range from 0.8cm to 6.0cm to fit different stoma diameters and lengths, respectively. The device incorporates a balloon fill indicator to alert the user when the balloon is not optimally inflated and incorporates an extension set connector that snaps with an audible double click that helps confirm that the connection of the extension set is secure. In addition, the feeding port includes a one-way dome valve that does not require a closure cap/strap.

The Kimberly-Clark* MIC-KEY* SF Bolus Feed Extension Set and Kimberly-Clark* MIC-KEY* SF Continuous Feed Extension Set engage to the feeding port using a snap-in connector and are made from DEHP-free materials. The feed valve and extension set ports have been designed to help prevent misconnections with Luer style connectors in alignment with ISO 80369-1 requirements.

The Kimberly-Clark* MIC-KEY* SF Over-the-Wire Stoma Measuring Device consists of a head, catheter, retention balloon, that are composed of polvurethane.

Missing Information:

The provided text does not contain any of the following information:

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective): The document only states "Summary of Testing" and lists standards without detailing specific test methodologies, sample sizes, or data provenance.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable, as this is a medical device for feeding tubes, not an AI or diagnostic imaging device requiring expert ground truth for interpretation. The testing focuses on biological safety and performance against established engineering standards.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable for the type of testing described (biocompatibility, sterilization, physical performance).
  4. 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, as this is a medical device (gastrostomy tube), not an AI or diagnostic imaging system.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): The ground truth for this device's performance is based on conformance to the established national and international standards listed, which often involve specific physical, chemical, and biological tests with predefined pass/fail criteria.
  7. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/machine learning device.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/machine learning device.

In summary: The document confirms that the Kimberly-Clark* MIC-KEY* SF Low Profile Gastrostomy Tube and Accessories underwent a series of tests to ensure compliance with relevant medical device standards (primarily ISO and AAMI/ANSI). All tests met acceptance criteria, concluding that the device is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices in terms of design, biocompatibility, performance, and principles of operation. However, the specific details of the acceptance criteria for each test and the methodologies (like sample size) are not elaborated in this 510(k) summary. The nature of the device (a physical medical implant/accessory) means that many of the AI/diagnostic-specific questions are not relevant.
