(268 days)
The SmartFlow™ Flex Ventricular Catheter is intended for injection of Cytarabine or removal of CSF from the ventricles during intracranial procedures. The device is not intended for implant. This device is intended for "single patient use only."
The Catheter has a stepped distal tip with a 30 cm removable rigid ceramic stylet protecting the fluid lumen while providing rigidity to the distal portion of the device. The stylet is removed after insertion to the desired point. Soft tubing protects the lumen in the center portion and at the distal end where it terminates. The fluid containing central lumen is manufactured from PEEK tubing.
The Catheter will be marketed in the following sizes:
Ventricular Catheter .008 x 7.5mm tip
Ventricular Catheter .008 x 15mm tip
Ventricular Cathcter .021 x 7.5mm tip
Ventricular Catheter .021 x 15mm tip
Each unit will provide for an approximate 23 inch tubing extension.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (MRII MR Compatible Ventricular Catheter) and focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than providing a study proving performance against specific acceptance criteria for a new AI/software device.
Therefore, the information required to populate most sections of the table and answer the subsequent questions is not present in the provided text, as this document describes a traditional medical device submission, not an AI/software device.
However, I can extract information related to the device's technical specifications and the Performance Testing – Bench section, which acts as the "study" proving the device meets certain operational criteria.
Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted based on the provided text:

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for each test, but phrases like "All samples" and "All Bone Anchors" suggest that specific, likely small, batches of devices/components were tested. The exact number of units per test is not provided.
- Data Provenance: The studies are described as "Bench testing" performed by "MRII, Inc." This indicates the data is from in-vitro (lab/bench) testing of the physical device, not patient data. No country of origin for data is specified beyond the company's location (Irvine, CA, USA). It's prospective in the sense that the tests were conducted specifically for this submission.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
Not applicable. This is a traditional device submission focused on physical and material properties, not an AI/software device requiring expert ground truth for classification or detection tasks. The "ground truth" for these tests is based on objective physical measurements and adherence to engineering specifications.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are used in studies involving human interpretation or subjective assessments, often for AI performance evaluation. The tests described here are objective bench tests.
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
Not applicable. This is not an AI/software device, and no MRMC study was performed.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is not an AI/software device. The device's "performance" is its physical function, not an algorithm's output.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The "ground truth" for the performance tests is derived from:
- Pre-defined engineering specifications and limits (e.g., specific flow rates, pressure limits, force thresholds).
- Comparative performance against the legally marketed predicate device.
- Objective physical measurements (e.g., fluid volume, pressure, force, visual inspection for damage/leaks).
- Compliance with recognized standards (e.g., ISO 10993 for biocompatibility, ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137-2 for sterility).
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This is not an AI/software device and does not involve training data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable. This is not an AI/software device.

7. Summary of difference from the predicate
The MRII ventricular catheter differs from that of the cannula in four principal ways.
- a) The fluid delivery tubing is composed of PEEK rather than the silica of the predicate
- b) The fluid delivery tubing is shorter (23 inch nominal) versus 4 and 10 feet of the predicate.
- c) The MRII ventricular cannula provides for a bone anchor, for subsequent infusions over a period of 24 hours.
- d) The rigid component of the catheter can be removed after insertion so that the catheter is flexible along its whole length. The cannula's rigid section is integrated into the assembly.
8. Testing:
Testing to applicable standards has been completed with acceptable outcomes. The following testing has been performed:
- . Sterilization and Shelf Life
- Biocompatibility: Both the ventricular catheter and the bone anchor were . tested under conditions of Good Laboratory Practices in the following tests with acceptable results.

10. Substantial Equivalence:
The MR Compatible Ventricular Catheter is as safe and effective as the predicate MRII Cannula. The MR Compatible Ventricular Catheter has the same intended uses and identical indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate device. The minor technological differences between the MR Compatible Ventricular Catheter and its predicate devices raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that the MR Compatible Ventricular Catheter is as safe and offective as the MRI Cannula. Thus the MR Compatible Ventricular Catheter is substantially equivalent.
