Intended Use

The NeoGen PSR System is intended for treatment of the following dermatological conditions:

  • Treatment of wrinkles and rhytides .
  • Superficial skin lesions .
  • Actinic Keratosis .
  • Viral Papillomata .
  • Seborrheic Keratosis .
  • Acne Scars .
Device Description

The NeoGen System is an electro-surgical device intended for use in dermatological applications by trained and duly qualified medical practitioners in hospitals and clinics. Treatment is achieved through controlled heating of the outer layers of the skin so that part or all of the epidermis becomes non-viable and there is controlled thermal modification to the underlying dermis. Similar biological changes to those from established laser-based dermatological surgical and skin resurfacing technologies are produced. A NeoGen PSR system comprises: NeoGen PSR generator, Footswitch, Handpiece/Cable Assembly, Procedure Pack (disposable nozzles), Nitrogen gas cylinder (not supplied). UHF energy from the Generator converts Nitrogen gas into plasma within the handpiece. The plasma emerges from the nozzle at the distal end of the handpiece and is directed onto the skin to be treated. Rapid heating of the skin occurs as the excited gas gives up energy to the skin.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the Energist Ltd NeoGen PSR System, an electrosurgical device. However, it does not contain information about acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria in the way typically associated with AI/ML device performance studies (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC).

Instead, this document is a 510(k) summary (K132754), which is a premarket notification for a medical device seeking clearance from the FDA. The primary objective of this document is to demonstrate "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device, not necessarily to perform a rigorous performance study against specific clinical acceptance criteria for a novel algorithm.

The core argument for substantial equivalence is based on:

  • Identical Intended Use: The NeoGen PSR System has the same intended use as its predicate, the Portrait PSR System (K082197).
  • Identical Technological Characteristics (with minor modifications): The device's technological characteristics are largely identical to the predicate, with minor modifications to the user interface, software, and outer casing design. The document states these differences "do not result in differences in performance or raise new questions of safety and efficacy."
  • Equivalent Principles of Operation and Energy Outputs: The device has the same principles of operation, mode of action, and equivalent energy outputs as the predicate device.
  • Compliance with Safety Standards: The device underwent testing to established international (IEC) and European (EN) safety standards for medical electrical equipment (IEC 60601-1, EN 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-2).
  • Laboratory Validation & Verification: This was undertaken to ensure design specifications were met and were substantially equivalent to the predicate.

Therefore, many of the requested categories for a typical AI/ML device performance study are not applicable or explicitly mentioned in this 510(k) summary.

Here's an attempt to fill out the table and answer the questions based only on the provided text, indicating where information is not available:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

| Acceptance Criteria Category | Acceptance Criteria (from text) | Reported Device Performance (from text) |

| Safety and Efficacy (General) | "minor differences to the systems do not raise additional concerns of safety and efficacy." (This is a conclusion rather than a specific criterion.) | "The NeoGen PSR System is therefore concluded to be substantially equivalent to the above named predicate device and minor differences to the systems do not raise additional concerns of safety and efficacy." |
| Compliance with Standards | Adherence to relevant medical device safety standards. | "IEC 60601-1:2005 + CORR.1 (2006) + CORR.2 (2007)", "EN 60601-1:2006 + A11:2011", "IEC60601-2-2:2009 (Fifth Ed)" were performed. The device is classified as "Class 1 (BS EN 60601-1:2006)" and "Type BF Applied Part". |
| Functional Equivalence to Predicate | Displayed Values Precision (Energy setting): 0.1 Joule. Max Output Energy: 4J. Treatment Pulse Repetition Rate: 1.0 to 2.5 Hz in Repeat Pulse mode; Single Pulse mode selectable. Pulse Width: Varied between 5.2 and 15.4 ms. RF Output Frequency: 2450 to 2480 MHz, typically 2470 MHz. Modulation: Pulsed CW. | The comparison table explicitly states that the NeoGen PSR System matches the predicate (Portrait PSR System) for all these specifications: - Displayed Values Precision (Energy setting): 0.1 Joule.- Max Output Energy: 4J.- Treatment Pulse Repetition Rate: 1.0 to 2.5 Hz in Repeat Pulse mode; Single Pulse mode selectable.- Pulse Width: Output RF pulse width is varied between 5.2 and 15.4 ms according to the energy to be delivered by each RF pulse.- RF Output Frequency: 2450 to 2480 MHz, typically 2470 MHz; No sub-harmonics.- Modulation: Pulsed CW (Carrier Wave). |
| Reproducible Tissue Effects | "The NeoGen System provides a predictable depth of thermal modification so limiting unwanted effects that may result in scarring." (This is a statement of desired outcome, implying it's an unstated criterion.) | "Through the combination within the handpiece of precisely controlled energy and Nitrogen gas, individual plasma pulses are produced that will give predictable tissue effects." "Performance data was provided to demonstrate that the system is capable of providing the outputs necessary to achieve its required treatment parameters." "The range of treatment energies and associated delivery times available has been determined from pre-clinical, clinical studies and expert opinion as being safe and effective for the intended applications..." |
| Clinical Efficacy (implicitly) | The intended uses (treatment of wrinkles/rhytides, superficial skin lesions, actinic keratosis, viral papillomata, seborrheic keratosis, acne scars) are implicitly a clinical acceptance criterion, met by being substantially equivalent to a device already cleared for these indications. | "The treatment is achieved through controlled heating of the outer layers of the skin so that part or all of the epidermis becomes non-viable and there is controlled thermal modification to the underlying dermis." "Similar biological changes to those from established laser-based dermatological surgical and skin resurfacing technologies are produced." "The range of treatment energies and associated delivery times available has been determined from pre-clinical, clinical studies and expert opinion as being safe and effective for the intended applications when employed by a dermatologist, plastic surgeon or other suitably qualified user." |

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • The document describes "Laboratory Validation & Verification" and refers to "pre-clinical, clinical studies and expert opinion" for determining the range of treatment energies and associated delivery times. However, no specific details on sample sizes for test sets, data provenance (country, retrospective/prospective), or subjects are provided for these studies. The focus is on demonstrating technical equivalence and safety compliance, not a novel clinical efficacy study with a defined test set.

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)

  • The document mentions "expert opinion" contributed to determining the safe and effective range of treatment energies. No specific number or qualifications of experts are provided. No ground truth in the sense of AI/ML evaluation (e.g., labeling images) is discussed.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

  • Not applicable as no AI/ML test set requiring adjudication for ground truth is described.

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

  • No MRMC study was done, as this is not an AI/ML device assisting human readers. The device itself performs the treatment.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

  • This is not an algorithm-only device. It's an electrosurgical system that is operated by a "trained and duly qualified medical practitioners." The "performance data" refers to the system's ability to produce specific physical outputs (energy, pulse width, frequency) and its compliance with safety standards, not an algorithm's diagnostic or predictive performance.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

  • For the technical validation, the "ground truth" would be the expected physical outputs and safety parameters as defined by the design specifications and relevant standards.
  • For the "pre-clinical, clinical studies and expert opinion" mentioned, the "ground truth" for efficacy would likely be based on clinical observations, histological analysis (pathology, although not explicitly stated), and physician assessment of patient outcomes. However, details are not provided.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable; this is not an AI/ML device that requires a "training set" in the computational sense. The "pre-clinical, clinical studies and expert opinion" inform the device's design and operating parameters, which is analogous to "training" in a broad sense, but specific sample sizes are not given.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

  • As per point 8, not applicable in the AI/ML sense. The "ground truth" for the device's design and operational parameters comes from established medical literature, clinical experience, and expert opinion in the field of dermatological treatments using energy-based systems, as implied by the statement: "The User should be familiar with the medical literature, complications and hazards associated with the use of light-based and other energy systems..." and "The range of treatment energies...has been determined from pre-clinical, clinical studies and expert opinion."

NeoGen PSR System

Device Description & Comparison

The NeoGen System is an electro-surgical device intended for use in dermatological applications by trained and duly qualified medical practitioners in hospitals and clinics. The User should be familiar with the medical literature, complications and hazards associated with the use of light-based and other energy systems in the treatment of facial and non-facial rhytides, acne scars and the removal of skin lesions. It is the responsibility of the user to select appropriate patients, to make a correct diagnosis, to determine the treatment required and the post-operative support required for the patient. It is stressed that some pre- and post-operative treatments for typical laser resurfacing procedures should NOT be applied either in preparation of or following a treatment using NeoGen, as this can lead to increased healing time and increased likelihood of unwanted side effects. Refer to the NeoGen Operators Manual for the Indications for Use and Relative Contraindications.

Treatment is achieved through controlled heating of the outer layers of the skin so that part or all of the epidermis becomes non-viable and there is controlled thermal modification to the underlying dermis. Similar biological changes to those from established laser-based dermatological surgical and skin resurfacing technologies are produced.

A NeoGen PSR system comprises:

NeoGen PSR generator

A mobile unit powered from a 100-120/230 VAC standard wall socket comprising a trolley and a generator section. During installation the generator section is attached to the trolley but may be subsequently removed by the user for easier transportation to a different site. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the handpiece/cable when the generator section is being transported in this way.

Footswitch

This is a single pedal type for activation of the output.

Handpiece/Cable Assembly

The handpiece has a single button on the top of its body for activation of the output. Disassembly of this from the generator requires a tool and is not described in this manual.

Procedure Pack

Comprising one or more disposable nozzles that is connected to the handpiece and which have an integral 'key' that is used by the generator to ensure the nozzle is not used bevond its operational life.

Nitrogen gas cylinder

This is not supplied as part of the NeoGen PSR system. Only medical grade (99.5% purity) nitrogen gas is to be used.

NEOGEN TECHNOLOGY

UHF energy from the Generator converts Nitrogen gas into plasma within the handpiece. The plasma emerges from the nozzle at the distal end of the handpiece and is directed onto the skin to be treated. Rapid heating of the skin occurs as the excited gas gives up enerav to the skin.

Through the combination within the handpiece of precisely controlled energy and Nitrogen gas, individual plasma pulses are produced that will give predictable tissue effects. Automatic adjustment of the UHF power level and UHF pulse width to the handpiece

Energist LtdNeoGen PSR System
Section 5

enables control of tissue effects by altering the amount of energy delivered by the plasma to tissue for each pulse. In practice, the energy per pulse is adjustable by the User from 1 to 4 Joules for a standard type nozzle.

The range of treatment energies and associated delivery times available has been determined from pre-clinical, clinical studies and expert opinion as being safe and effective for the intended applications when employed by a dermatologist, plastic surgeon or other suitably qualified user. In particular, the NeoGen System provides a predictable depth of thermal modification so limiting unwanted effects that may result in scarring.

To aid accurate distance from the skin surface, the nozzle is fitted with a 5mm stand-off leg. In practice, no pressure should be applied to the skin when using the stand-off, as this will cause variance of the distance of the nozzle from the skin surface, due to the elasticity of the skin, and could potentially result in an uneven application of energy.

Irrespective of the energy level employed for treatment, the effect is not ablative in that there is not an immediate removal of tissue at the time of application. This retention of the skin surface not only protects against the effects of over treatment but also behaves as a biological dressing to support the healing process over the first 4-5 days following treatment.

Comparison of Technological Characteristics

The NeoGen PSR System has an identical intended use to the predicate system and identical technological characteristics except for modifications to the device user interface and software and outer casing design. These differences do not result in differences in performance or raise new questions of safety and efficacy. The NeoGen PSR System also has the same principles of operation, mode of action and equivalent energy outputs that are used by the Portrait PSR system. Laboratory Validation & Verification utilising calibrated test equipment was undertaken to ensure all design specifications were met and were substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Performance data was provided to demonstrate that the system is capable of providing the outputs necessary to achieve its required treatment parameters.

Performance data was gained through the following tests:

  • IEC 60601-1:2005 + CORR.1 (2006) + CORR.2 (2007) .
  • . EN 60601-1:2006 + A11:2011
  • IEC60601-2-2:2009 (Fifth Ed) .
  • Laboratory Validation & Verification .

The NeoGen PSR System is therefore concluded to be substantially equivalent to the above named predicate device and minor differences to the systems do not raise additional concerns of safety and efficacy.
