Intended Use

The STARband and STARlight are intended for medical purposes for use on infants from 3 to 18 months of age, with moderate-to-severe non-synostotic positional plagiocephaly, including infants with plagiocephalic-, and scaphocephalic-shaped heads by applying mild pressure to prominent regions of the infant's cranium in order to improve cranial symmetry and/or shape. These devices are also indicated for adjunctive use for infants from 3 to 18 months of age whose synostosis has been surgically corrected, but who still have moderate-to-severe cranial deformities including plagiocephalic-, brachycephalic-, and scaphocephalic-shaped heads.

Device Description

The STARband and STARlight redirects the head growth to improve proportion and symmetry. The practitioner takes a plaster impression or 3-dimensional captured image of the infant's head to acquire the existing shape. The mold is sealed and filled with plaster or the 3-dimensional image is carved from a rigid polyurethane foam blank to create a positive model of the head shape. The positive model is modified to obtain greater symmetry and space in the areas of flattening. The STARband and STARlight provide total contact over the prominent or bossed areas of the baby's head to discourage growth there. Over the course of treatment, the inside of the band is further modified by the practitioner to provide space for growth to occur in the flat or depressed areas. The shape of the STARband and STARlight directs growth into the areas of least resistance and creates a precise pathway for the head shape to improve in symmetry and proportion.

The STARband Side Opening design and STARband Bi-Valve design is made with an outer shell of 5/32" polyethylene-polypropylene copolymer plastic with an inner liner made of 1/2" pelite polyethylene foam or 1/2" Aliplast foam (closed cell polyethylene). The STARlight Side Opening design and the STARlight Bi-Valve design are made of a plastic shell of 5/32" - 1/4" clear Surlyn or 1/8" - 7/32" Clear Co-Polyester. The STARlight PRO (Post-operative Remolding Orthosis) design is made of 1/4" to 3/8" clear Surlyn. Optional Aliplast (closed cell polyethylene) padding is available for the clear plastic bands and in addition, optional Reston (polyurethane - 3M Medical Product) foam is available for the STARlight PRO design.

The STARband Side Opening design and the STARlight Side Opening design has a top opening and a side opening. The band is held in place by a Velcro strap (1½" for STARband Side Opening and 1" for STARlight Side Opening) across the side opening. The STARlight PRO has two side openings, no top opening, and is held in place by a Velcro strap across each side opening. The STARlight Bi-Valve design and the STARband Bi-Valve design consist of two plastic shells that overlap with a superior sliding mechanism. The right and left overlap tabs are connected via a Velcro strap with chafe and loop.

The proposed device modification is a new software component for a previously cleared shape capture method, the STARscanner™ Data Acquisition System. The new software component is the Cranial Comparison Utility (CCU). The CCU is a separate software program that is designed to present specific measurements derived from a threedimensional (3D) digital model of a patient's cranium. These features are useful to medical professionals by providing more detailed shape data that can be incorporated into the patient evaluation/assessment and for tracking cranial head shape changes.

AI/ML Overview

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

The document describes the Cranial Comparison Utility (CCU) as a software component for the previously cleared STARscanner™ Data Acquisition System, which is used for the fabrication of STARband and STARlight Cranial Orthoses. The acceptance criteria and performance data specifically address the CCU.

Acceptance Criteria (Stated Goal for CCU)Reported Device Performance (CCU)
Accuracy of measurements"CCU Accuracy and Capabilities Study" was conducted. This study "Utilized a representative cranial shape that possesses a predefined shape with known dimensions" and "Compared CCU to manual measurements and 3D-CAD software." The study "Accessed accuracy of measurements and capabilities of model alignment, differential maps, calculations and reporting." The conclusion states: "The software program provides accurate information of 3D digital models from the STARscanner Data Acquisition System." and "an accuracy and capability study was conducted on the CCU and was determined to be acceptable. With sufficient accuracy..."
Capabilities (model alignment, differential maps, calculations, reporting)The CCU Accuracy and Capabilities Study "Accessed accuracy of measurements and capabilities of model alignment, differential maps, calculations and reporting." The conclusion states: "...the CCU demonstrated a safety and effectiveness profile similar to the predicate device for measuring pediatric head shapes digital models provided from the STARscanner."
Safety of software program"no concerns with the safety of the software program" was reported.
Non-interference with manufacturing"The CCU does not affect the operation of the STARscanner and is not used for manufacturing of the STARband or STARlight."

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

  • Test Set Sample Size: The document states that the "CCU Accuracy and Capabilities Study" "Utilized a representative cranial shape that possesses a predefined shape with known dimensions." It does not specify a numerical sample size in terms of the number of unique patient scans or models. Instead, it refers to a single "representative cranial shape." This suggests a phantom or a standardized model rather than a dataset of patient scans.
  • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin or if the data was retrospective or prospective. Given the nature of a "representative cranial shape" with "predefined shape and known dimensions," it is highly likely this refers to a synthetic or phantom model used in a controlled laboratory setting, rather than real patient data.

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

The document does not mention the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth for the CCU's test set. The ground truth was established by "predefined shape with known dimensions" and "manual measurements and 3D-CAD software." This suggests that the ground truth was derived from engineering specifications and objective measurements rather than subjective expert consensus on patient data.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:

Not applicable. The ground truth for the CCU's performance was established using objective "predefined shape with known dimensions" and comparison to "manual measurements and 3D-CAD software." There was no multi-reader or human adjudication process 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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The CCU is a software tool for measurement and analysis of 3D cranial models, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers. It provides "more detailed shape data that can be incorporated into the patient evaluation/assessment and for tracking cranial head shape changes" by medical professionals, but it does not describe human reader performance with or without the CCU.

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

Yes, a standalone study evaluating the CCU (algorithm only) was performed. The "CCU Accuracy and Capabilities Study" assessed the accuracy of measurements and capabilities entirely of the software by comparing its output to "manual measurements and 3D-CAD software" on a "representative cranial shape."

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

The ground truth used for the CCU's accuracy and capabilities study was based on:

  • "Predefined shape with known dimensions" of a representative cranial shape. This implies a precisely manufactured physical model or a digitally engineered model with exact specifications.
  • Comparison to "manual measurements and 3D-CAD software." This suggests that precise reference measurements from established tools were used as the gold standard.

8. The sample size for the training set:

The document does not describe a "training set" for the CCU. This suggests that the CCU software likely relies on deterministic algorithms for geometric measurements and comparisons, rather than machine learning models that require training data.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
As no training set is described for the CCU, the method for establishing its ground truth is not applicable.

IV. Description of Device/Modification

The STARband and STARlight redirects the head growth to improve proportion and symmetry. The practitioner takes a plaster impression or 3-dimensional captured image of the infant's head to acquire the existing shape. The mold is sealed and filled with plaster or the 3-dimensional image is carved from a rigid polyurethane foam blank to create a positive model of the head shape.

The shape of the STARband and STARlight directs growth into the areas of least resistance and creates a precise pathway for the head shape to improve in symmetry and proportion.

The STARband and STARlight product families as it was released in K140353 are essentially still the same devices. The STARband Side Opening design and STARband Bi-Valve design is made with an outer shell of 5/32" polyethylene-polypropylene copolymer plastic with an inner liner made of 1/2" pelite polyethylene foam or 1/2" Aliplast foam (closed cell polyethylene). The STARlight Side Opening design and the STARlight Bi-Valve design are made of a plastic shell of 5/32" - 1/4" clear Surlyn or 1/8" - 7/32" Clear Co-Polyester. The STARlight PRO (Post-operative Remolding Orthosis) design is made of 1/4" to 3/8" clear Surlyn. Optional Aliplast (closed cell polyethylene) padding is available for the clear plastic bands and in addition, optional Reston (polyurethane - 3M Medical Product) foam is available for the STARlight PRO design.

The STARband Side Opening design and the STARlight Side Opening design has a top opening and a side opening. The band is held in place by a Velcro strap (1½" for STARband Side Opening and 1" for STARlight Side Opening) across the side opening. The STARlight PRO has two side openings, no top opening, and is held in place by a Velcro strap across each side opening.

V. Statement of Indications and Intended Use

Statement of Indications:

The STARband and STARlight are intended for medical purposes for use on infants from 3 to 18 months of age, with moderate-to-severe non-synostotic positional plagiocephaly, including infants with plagiocephalic-, brachycephalic- and scaphocephalic-shaped heads by applying mild pressure to prominent regions of the infant's cranium in order to improve cranial symmetry and/or shape. The devices are also indicated for adjunctive use for infants from 3 to 18 months of age whose synostosis has been surgically corrected. but who still have moderate-to-severe cranial deformities including plagiocephalic-, brachycephalic- and scaphocephalic-shaped heads.

Intended Use:

The STARband and STARlight are designed to treat infants with abnormal head shapes from age 3 to 18 months and is available by prescription only. Since growth is the driving factor in head shape correction, the infants wear the STARband or STARlight for approximately 23 hours per day. The most common head deformities are positional plagiocephaly, brachycephaly, and scaphocephaly. The STARband and STARlight have also been cleared to treat unresolved head deformities in patients who have undergone surgery to correct craniosynostosis. The same principles of cranial remolding apply to positional deformities and post-operative patients.

{8}------------------------------------------------

The STARband and STARlight Cranial Orthosis have previously received FDA 510(k) clearance with the STARscanner Data Acquisition System under K011350 for the STARband and under K021207 for the STARlight. The CCU does not affect the operation of the STARscanner and is not used for manufacturing of the STARband or STARlight. The CCU is a separate software program designed to present specific measurements derived from a 3D digital model of the patient's cranium. The STARband and STARlight are the same devices as previously cleared with the predicate devices. The shape capture device has the same technological characteristics. Therefore, the STARband and STARlight Cranial Orthosis are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

The STARband and STARlight are essentially the same Cranial Orthosis. The main difference between the STARband and STARlight are the materials used to produce them. The STARband and STARlight materials have been biocompatibility tested, and the results of the tests are listed below in Table 2.

VIII. Summary and Conclusions of Non-Clinical Performance Data

The software program provides accurate information of 3D digital models from the STARscanner Data Acquisition System. The accuracy and reliability of the STARscanner has already been proven through accuracy analysis as well as repeatability and reproducibility (R&R) studies. An accuracy and capability study was conducted on the CCU and was determined to be acceptable. With sufficient accuracy, no concerns with the safety of the software program and the fact that it is not used in the manufacturing of the STARband and STARlight Cranial Orthosis, the CCU demonstrated a safety and effectiveness profile similar to the predicate device for measuring pediatric head shapes digital models provided from the STARscanner.
