The Amsco V-PRO I, V-PRO I Plus and V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization Systems, with VAPROX® HC Sterilant, are vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizers intended for use in the terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed and dried reusable metal and nonmetal medical devices used in healthcare facilities. The pre-programmed sterilization cycles (Lumen Cycle, Non Lumen Cycle, and Flexible Cycle) operate at low pressure and low temperature and are thus suitable for processing medical devices sensitive to heat and moisture.
The Amsco V-PRO 1, V-PRO 1 Plus and V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization Systems' Lumen Cycle, the subject of this submission, can sterilize:
- Lumened and non-lumened instruments with diffusion-restricted spaces such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors
- Medical devices, including single, dual and triple channeled rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes, with the following configurations:
- single channeled devices with a stainless lumen that is ≥ 0.77 mm internal diameter (ID) and ≤ 500 mm in length
- dual channeled devices with stainless steel lumens that are ≥ 0.77 mm ID and ≤ 527 mm in length
- triple channeled devices with stainless steel lumens that are either
- ≥ 1.2 mm ID and ≤ 275 mm in length
- ≥ 1.8 mm ID and ≤ 310 mm in length
- or
- ≥ 2.8 mm ID and ≤ 317 mm in length
- The validation studies for all channel/lumen configurations were conducted using a maximum of twenty (20) lumens per load. Hospital loads should not exceed the maximum number of lumens validated by this testing. The validation studies were performed using a validation load consisting of two instrument trays and two pouches for a total weight of 19.65 lbs.
The Amsco V-PRO 1 Plus and V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization Systems' Non Lumen Cycle, cleared under K083097, K102394 and K111810, can sterilize: - Non-lumened instruments including non-lumened rigid, semi-rigid and flexible endoscopes and non-lumened instruments with stainless steel diffusion-restricted areas such as the hinged portion of forceps or scissors.
- The validation studies were conducted using a validation load consisting of two instrument trays and two pouches for a total weight of 19.65 Ibs.
The Amsco V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization System's Flexible Cycle, cleared under K102330 and K112760, can sterilize single or dual lumen surgical flexible endoscopes (such as those used in ENT, Urology and Surgical Care) and bronchoscopes in either of two load configurations:
- The validation studies were conducted using a validation load consisting of two instrument trays and two pouches for a total weight of 19.65 Ibs.
-
- Two flexible endoscopes with a light cord (if not integral to endoscope) and mat with no additional load.
The flexible endoscopes may contain either:

- a single lumen that is ≥ 1 mm ID and ≤ 1050 mm in length
- or two lumens with:
- one lumen that is ≥ 1 mm ID and ≤ 998 mm in length
- and the other lumen that is > 1 mm and ≤ 850 mm in length
- The validation studies were conducted with a flexible endoscope in a tray with silicone mat and light cord (if not integral to endoscope). Also included in the load were an additional instrument tray and one pouch for a total load weight of 24.0 Ibs.
The Amsco V-PRO 1, V-PRO 1 Plus and V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization Systems are vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizers. The V-PRO Sterilizers use VAPROX® HC Sterilant to sterilize the intended devices through exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP). The pre-programmed V-PRO cycles all utilize a conditioning phase, a sterilization phase and an aeration phase. The packaged sterilized devices are ready for use at the completion of the cycle; no cool down or aeration period is required.
The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the Amsco V-PRO 1, V-PRO 1 Plus, and V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization Systems. It focuses on updating the indications for use statement for the Lumen Cycle.

Study Details
Based on the provided text, the document describes nonclinical tests primarily focused on verifying the sterilization efficacy of the device.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: The exact number of individual devices or lumens tested for each specific test is not explicitly stated in numerical form. However, for the "Lumen Cycle," the validation studies for all channel/lumen configurations were conducted using a maximum of twenty (20) lumens per load. The validation load consisted of two instrument trays and two pouches for a total weight of 19.65 lbs.
- Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin of the data. It is a 510(k) submission to the US FDA, implying the studies were conducted to meet US regulatory requirements. The studies appear to be prospective validation studies conducted by the manufacturer, STERIS Corporation, for the purpose of demonstrating the device's efficacy.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- The document does not mention the use of experts or their qualifications for establishing the ground truth. Sterilization efficacy studies like these typically rely on microbiological testing (e.g., spore-kill assays) to establish an objective "ground truth" of sterility, rather than expert human interpretation.
-
Adjudication method for the test set:
- Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are typically used in studies involving human readers or subjective assessments. This document describes objective performance testing (sterilization efficacy), so such adjudication methods are not applicable and therefore not mentioned.
-
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. This is a study on a sterilization device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device that would involve human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study and related effect sizes are not relevant or described.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Yes, in a sense. The tests described are "standalone" performance evaluations of the sterilization system's ability to achieve sterility without direct human intervention during the sterilization cycle itself. The device is an automated sterilizer, so its performance is inherently "algorithm-only" in its operation. However, no "algorithm" in the typical AI sense is discussed.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- The ground truth in these sterilization studies is microbiological sterility. The "½ Cycle Modified Total Kill Endpoint Verification" and "½ Cycle Sterilization Verification" tests indicate the use of biological indicators (spores) to definitively determine if sterilization was achieved (total kill/survival results). The "In Use Test" also mentions sterilization of "patient-soiled medical instruments," implying a microbiological assessment of sterility. Biocompatibility is assessed by "residue analysis."
-
The sample size for the training set:
- This document describes validation and verification studies for a physical sterilization device, not a machine learning model. Therefore, the concept of a "training set" for an algorithm is not applicable and not mentioned.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- As there is no training set for an AI algorithm, this information is not applicable.
