Intended Use

MADM™ is intended to deliver volatile anesthetic to a patient when placed in either circle or open anesthetic circuits. It vaporizes Isoflurane and Sevoflurane and delivers the vaporized anesthetic agent into the inspiratory limb of the breathing circuit.

MADM™ is also intended to monitor respiratory rate, CO2, and the anesthetic gases Isoflurane and Sevoflurane. It is intended to be connected to a patient breathing circuit for monitoring of patients to whom it is delivering volatile anesthetic gases.

Device Description

The MADM™ system is a portable vaporizer capable of delivering anesthetic to the inspiratory limb of a breathing circuit. Unlike other in-line vaporizers, MADMTM can be inserted into a circle system where some exhaled anesthetic is rebreathed. The MADM™ system measures the anesthetic concentration of incoming gas and reduces the anesthetic output to ensure the anesthetic concentration of gas delivered to the patient is as set on the dial.

MADM™ includes an internal battery backup capable of powering the device for 20 minutes, and an optional external battery base with hot swappable batteries capable of powering the system for over two hours. Anesthetic is stored in custom single agent anesthetic canisters.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification summary for the Thornhill Research Inc. MADM™ device. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing a detailed study proving acceptance criteria for its performance metrics.

However, based on the provided text, we can extract the following information regarding performance testing and acceptance criteria:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document broadly states that the device meets the acceptance criteria of international standards for anesthetic delivery accuracy and gas sensing accuracy. However, specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., ±X% accuracy) and the reported performance values are not explicitly provided in this summary. The summary states:

Performance MetricAcceptance Criteria (General)Reported Device Performance (General)
Anesthetic Delivery AccuracyMeets acceptance criteria of international standardsDemonstrates characteristics substantially equivalent to identified predicates
Gas Sensing Accuracy (CO2, Isoflurane, Sevoflurane)Meets acceptance criteria of international standardsDemonstrates characteristics substantially equivalent to identified predicates
Functionality across environmental rangeMeets system requirementsPerformance testing conducted and results demonstrate meeting system requirements
Battery LongevityMeets system requirementsTesting conducted and results demonstrate meeting system requirements
Anesthetic CompatibilityNon-reactivity of components in contact with anesthetic gasEvaluation demonstrating components were non-reactive to Isoflurane and Sevoflurane

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

The document mentions "Performance testing" and "Safety and Performance Testing" but does not specify the sample size for any test sets used. It also does not provide information on data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective nature of the data). This level of detail is typically found in the full test reports, which are not included in this summary.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications:

The summary does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for a test set. The performance testing described appears to be engineering and laboratory-based testing against established standards and internal system requirements, rather than clinical studies requiring expert consensus on subjective outcomes.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

Since there is no mention of experts or a "test set" in the context of expert review, no adjudication method is described.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

A Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done as this device is an anesthesia gas machine and monitor, not an interpretive diagnostic imaging or AI-driven system that would typically involve human readers. The document focuses on the device's standalone performance compared to standards and predicates.

6. Standalone Performance:

Yes, a standalone performance evaluation was done. The "Summary of Performance Testing" section details various tests conducted on the MADM™ device by itself to validate its system requirements and compliance with standards. This includes:

  • Performance testing across the intended environmental operating range.
  • Battery Longevity testing.
  • Anesthetic delivery accuracy.
  • Disturbance analysis.
  • Anesthetic compatibility evaluation.
  • Biocompatibility Evaluation.

The conclusion states that the performance characteristics demonstrate substantial equivalence and meet acceptance criteria of international standards.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

The ground truth used for the performance testing appears to be based on:

  • International standards and regulations: Compliance to AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-13, ISO 80601-2-55.
  • System requirements: The device's internal design specifications and functional requirements.
  • Physical measurements/instrumentation: For accuracy (anesthetic delivery, gas sensing) and longevity (battery).
  • Chemical/material compatibility testing: For anesthetic compatibility.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

The concept of a "training set" is typically applicable to machine learning or AI models that learn from data. The MADM™ device, as described, is a physical medical device (vaporizer, monitor) with embedded controls, not an AI system. Therefore, the notion of a "training set" is not relevant in this context, and no information about one is provided.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

As there is no "training set" in the context of this device, this question is not applicable. The device's design and operation are based on engineering principles and validated through testing against established physical and safety standards.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The MADM™ is of comparable type and is substantially equivalent to the following predicate devices:

Device510(k) #
PAC VaporizerK850648
Penlon Sigma Delta VaporizerK002343
Tec-6 Plus VaporizerK000275
IRMAK123043

Comparison to Predicate Device

MADM™ and the predicate devices have the same intended use. Namely, each device is intended for the controlled delivery of anesthetic vapor into the patient breathing circuit. MADM™ can operate in both flow-through and circle systems, both inside and outside the breathing circuit. A typical draw-over vaporizer cannot be inserted into a circle system as it would continually add anesthetic to that being inspired eventually leading to a hazard.

MADM™ includes an anesthetic sensor at its input which measures the content of the incoming gas, so that the delivered agent is reduced according to what is recirculated. A detailed risk analysis has been conducted to ensure that this configuration can function safely, and several safety features have been included. These include the inclusion of an anesthetic sensor at the mouth which causes automatic cessation of delivery if inhaled anesthetic exceeds a threshold above what is set. A safety interlock is in place which prevents anesthetic from being delivered if either anesthetic sensor is malfunctioning or not present.

Compliance to Standards and Regulations

AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1 IEC 60601-1-2 IEC 60601-2-13 ISO 80601-2-55

Summary of Performance Testing

Safety and Performance Testing was conducted in accordance with all referenced standards and regulations, and to validate all system requirements. Performance testing included:

  • . Performance testing across the intended environmental operating range.
  • Battery Longevity testing across the intended environmental operating range.
  • Anesthetic delivery accuracy across the anticipated clinical range of respiratory ● rates, fresh gas flows, and tidal volumes.
  • Disturbance analysis including step changes in Respiratory Rate, Fresh Gas Flow, and Tidal Volume.
  • Anesthetic compatibility evaluation demonstrating that components in contact with ● anesthetic gas were non-reactive to Isoflurane and Sevoflurane.
  • Biocompatibility Evaluation according to the 510(k) Memorandum - #G95-1

The results of performance testing demonstrate that the characteristics of MADMTM are substantially equivalent to the identified predicates and meet the acceptance criteria of international standards in terms of anesthetic delivery accuracy and gas sensing accuracy as well as all of its system requirements.
