Intended Use

The XLR8 Plus (XLR8+) Wound Vacuum System is indicated for use in patients who would benefit from negative pressure wound therapy particularly as the device may promote wound healing by the removal of excess exudates, infectious material and tissue debris.

Device Description

The XLR8 Plus (XLR8+) Wound Vacuum System is portable, rechargeable battery powered wound suction pump with the intention to deliver negative pressure to the wound. The XLR8 Plus (XLR8 +) is a modification to the existing A4-XLR8 wound vacuum system with exactly the same internal components and accessories. The XLR8+ is a lightweight, portable wound suction device. It has a rechargeable battery, LCD screen for clear viewing, membrane overlay with buttons to control the device. It has 2 therapy options, continuous therapy and variable intermittent therapy. It consists of 5 alerts to notify the users of unwanted events, i.e. leakage in the dressing, blockage in the tubing, canister is full, low battery status.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Genadyne XLR8 Plus (XLR8+) Wound Vacuum System, seeking substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This type of document focuses on demonstrating that a new device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed device, rather than rigorously proving performance against pre-defined acceptance criteria through extensive studies in the way an AI/ML device submission might.

Therefore, the information required for acceptance criteria and the study proving it typically found in AI/ML device descriptions is not present in this document. This document details a special 510(k), which implies minor modifications to an existing device, and thus relies heavily on the equivalence of the modified device to the predicate device, rather than new performance studies.

Here's a breakdown of why each requested point cannot be fully addressed by this document:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This document doesn't define quantitative acceptance criteria for performance in the way an AI/ML device would (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC). Instead, it compares technical characteristics and intended use to a predicate device. The "performance" reported is essentially that it matches the predicate.

  2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective): No test set sample size or data provenance is mentioned. The device's substantial equivalence is primarily based on comparisons of its technical specifications to the predicate device, not on new clinical performance data from a test set. This is a common approach for "Special 510(k)" submissions for minor modifications.

  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. There is no mention of a test set requiring expert-established ground truth for the performance claims.

  4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable. As there's no mention of a test set requiring ground truth, no adjudication method 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: Not applicable. This device is a wound vacuum system, not an AI/ML imaging or diagnostic device. There is no concept of "human readers" or "AI assistance" in its function.

  6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML algorithm.

  7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): Not applicable. "Ground truth" in the context of clinical validation for AI/ML devices is not relevant here. The "truth" for this submission is that its physical and functional characteristics are substantially equivalent to the predicate.

  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This device does not involve a "training set" in the context of AI/ML.

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

Summary of the Study (as described in the document):

The "study" or justification for substantial equivalence is a comparison of technological characteristics and indications for use between the new device (XLR8 Plus) and its predicate device (A4-XLR8). The document emphasizes that "Everything in the XLR8 Plus (XLR8+) Wound Vacuum System is exactly the same as the predicate device... with the exception of an increment in depth of 1" to the back cover housing." This suggests that the "study" was primarily an engineering and design comparison, demonstrating that the minor physical change does not alter the fundamental safety and effectiveness or performance parameters of the device. The compliance with electrical safety standards (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2) for both devices further supports this claim of equivalence.

Dear Mr. Goh:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
