AI/ML Overview

The provided 510(k) summary for the APOTECA® Drug Compounding Dosing Device and I.V. Transfer Set details performance data primarily related to biocompatibility and basic physical properties, rather than diagnostic accuracy or comparative effectiveness with human readers. This device is a medical fluid transfer system, not an AI/ML-based diagnostic tool. Therefore, many of the requested categories (e.g., sample size for test set, number of experts, MRMC studies, standalone performance) are not applicable to the information provided.

However, I can extract the acceptance criteria and reported performance for the characteristics that were evaluated.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:
The document does not specify the exact sample sizes for each bench test conducted for the APOTECA® devices. The tests were "bench tests" performed based on risk analysis to verify the device's compatibility with the APOTECAchemo automatic pharmacy compounding system and general safety. Data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is not applicable to these types of bench tests, as they are laboratory evaluations of the device itself.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
Not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML-based diagnostic device requiring expert consensus for ground truth. The performance data relates to material biocompatibility and physical integrity, evaluated through standardized laboratory tests.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:
Not applicable. See point 3.

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/ML-based diagnostic device, so MRMC studies involving human readers and AI assistance are irrelevant.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or AI system. Its performance relates to its physical and material properties.

7. The type of ground truth used:
For biocompatibility tests (Hemolysis, Cytotoxicity, Systemic Toxicity, Intracutaneous Reactivity, EO Residual, Bacterial Endotoxins), the "ground truth" is defined by the objective pass/fail criteria established by international standards (ISO, USP) for specific biological responses or chemical levels. For physical tests (Leak proof, Airtight), the "ground truth" is observable evidence of passage (leaks, smoke) or lack thereof.

8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable. This is not a machine learning device and therefore does not have a "training set."

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable. See point 8.
