The use of the Dual Switch Adaptor does not change the indications for use of the Ultra MD CO2 laser system.

Device Description

The Dual Switch Adaptor is an accessory that can be mounted onto the Ultra MD CO2 Laser System currently manufactured by Laser Engineering, Inc. under the existing 510K numbers: K881580, K881581, K881582, K881583, K881584, K881585, K881587, K881588, and K905676.

The Dual Switch Adaptor allows the laser beam to exit the laser vertically through the articulating arm or horizontally through a flexible laser waveguide. The Dual Switch Adaptor provides an alternate delivery system for use in surgical procedures where a flexible delivery system would allow easier and more efficient delivery of laser energy to the targeted tissue. The Dual Switch Adaptor consists of a protective housing that is mounted into the path of the laser beam to divert the energy to the fiber coupler.

The Dual Switch Adaptor is designed to operate at 10.6um and has a broad enough transmission band to accommodate any laser operating in this region.

The laser energy can be supplied traditionally through the articulating arm or into a focusing lens that is coupled into the flexible waveguide, exiting to the tissue at the distal end.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the "Dual Switch Adapter." This type of document is for regulatory approval and focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than presenting a detailed study proving performance against acceptance criteria in the way a clinical trial or algorithm validation study would.

Therefore, many of the requested categories about acceptance criteria, study design, expert involvement, and ground truth are not applicable in this context. The document describes engineering-focused performance testing rather than clinical or AI-driven performance.

Here's a breakdown of what information is available and what is not:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Bench TestingEstablished percent transmission, optical alignment, and alignment stability.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

  • Sample Size: Not specified beyond "the Dual Switch Adaptor." It implies testing of the device itself, not a dataset of patient cases.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable. The testing is on the physical device.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

  • Number of experts: Not applicable. The testing is technical/engineering, not requiring expert clinical ground truth.
  • Qualifications of experts: Not applicable.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

  • Adjudication method: Not applicable. The testing is technical/engineering.

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

  • MRMC study: No. This is not an AI-assisted device.
  • Effect size: Not applicable.

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

  • Standalone performance: Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

  • Ground Truth Type: Not applicable. The "ground truth" for this device's performance would be engineering specifications and measurements (e.g., actual transmission values, physical alignment measurements).

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Training Set Sample Size: Not applicable. This is not a machine learning device.

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

  • Ground Truth Establishment for Training Set: Not applicable.
