Intended Use

KegelFit is a non-implanted muscle stimulator designed to treat female stress urinary incontinence. It applies stimulation to the pelvic floor muscles to improve strength and support. The KegelFit is intended for OTC sale.

Device Description

The KegelFit is a hand-held, home-use device designed to treat female stress urinary incontinence. The device is supplied with a vaginal two electrode stimulation probe (Trainer). The trainer connects to the control unit by cable and plug and is inserted into the vagina by the end user. Electrical stimulation is delivered via stainless steel electrodes on the trainer to induce a contraction of the pelvic floor muscles. Muscle stimulation is used to train and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles in a controlled manner. Muscle stimulation is used to improve the ability of muscles to hold a contraction for an extended period of time and is a treatment for urinary incontinence. During a session, stimulation is delivered to specific muscles to encourage their contraction. This contraction strengthens the muscles and also helps the end user recognize which muscles to activate during self-directed contractions. The level of electrical stimulation is easily controlled by the end user using manual, push-button controls. The device is battery powered single channel home use neuromuscular stimulation. Electrical stimulation is delivered via stainless steel electrodes on the inflatable probe to induce a contraction of the pelvic floor muscles. Muscle stimulation is used to train and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles in a controlled manner. Muscle stimulation is used to improve the ability of muscles to hold a contraction for an extended period of time and is a treatment for urinary incontinence. During a session, stimulation is delivered to specific muscles to encourage their contraction. This contraction strengthens the muscles and also helps the end user recognize which muscles to activate during self-directed contractions. The level of electrical stimulation is easily controlled by the end user using manual, push-button controls. The unit is intended for home use by the patient, and is designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind. It has two preset treatment programs, a preset treatment timer, a compliance monitor, and open circuit detectors.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text does not contain specific acceptance criteria with numerical thresholds, nor does it detail a clinical study with a control group and effect sizes to prove that the Tenscare KegelFit device meets such criteria. Instead, the submission focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices through comparisons of technological characteristics, intended use, and safety documentation.

Here's an breakdown of the information that can be extracted from the document, organized according to your request:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

As mentioned, explicit acceptance criteria with specific numerical targets (e.g., "sensitivity > 90%") for the device's clinical performance are not provided in this document. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than meeting novel performance criteria through new clinical endpoints.

Instead of formal "acceptance criteria," the document outlines areas of comparison to establish substantial equivalence. The "reported device performance" is framed in terms of its similarity to predicates and successful safety testing.

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

The "testing" mentioned is not a human clinical trial test set in the traditional sense, but rather a combination of:

  • Customer Reviews Analysis:
    • Sample Size: 13,758 OTC sales of the predicate device "itouch Sure" through Amazon UK.
    • Data Provenance: Retrospective, derived from customer reviews in the UK (EU market at the time).
  • Customer Questionnaires:
    • Sample Size: 21 responses received from 120 users of "itouch Sure" who purchased OTC through eBay UK.
    • Data Provenance: Prospective (questionnaires sent out), with data from UK (EU market).
  • Labeling Comparison: Not a "test set" in terms of subject count, but a comparison of documents.
  • Clinical Literature Evaluation: Not a specific test set, but a review of existing literature.

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

  • Customer Reviews/Questionnaires: No medical experts established "ground truth" for the usability and self-diagnosis aspects derived from customer feedback. The "truth" in this context is the aggregated perception and experience of lay users.
  • Labeling Comparison: The comparison was performed by the submission authors (Tenscare Ltd.). The qualifications of these individuals are not specified in the provided text.
  • Clinical Literature Review: This implies an expert review, but the number and specific qualifications of the individuals who conducted this review are not stated.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Customer Reviews/Questionnaires: There is no mention of a formal adjudication method by experts. The analysis involved reviewing customer feedback.
  • Labeling Comparison: This was a direct comparison done by the submitter, not requiring an adjudication panel.
  • Clinical Literature Review: No specific 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

No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device is an electrical muscle stimulator, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool requiring human reader interpretation of images or other data. This type of study is not relevant to this device.

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

The Tenscare KegelFit is a physical medical device (muscle stimulator) intended for home use by patients, not an algorithm. Therefore, a "standalone algorithm performance" study is not applicable. The device's performance is inherently linked to its use by a human operator. Its "standalone" performance might refer to its functional specifications (e.g., electrical parameters) which were tested in electrical safety and EMC tests, but not in a "standalone algorithm" context.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • For safety and effectiveness: The "ground truth" relies on:
    • Substantial equivalence to predicate devices: The established safety and effectiveness of the existing itouch Sure and Apex devices (which presumably had their own ground truth established in prior clearances).
    • Clinical literature evaluation: Existing medical literature on the efficacy of electrical stimulation for stress urinary incontinence.
  • For usability and self-selection for OTC use: The "ground truth" was established by:
    • Customer feedback/reviews: Direct user experience and statements regarding ease of use and understanding of instructions and contraindications. This serves as a proxy for "ground truth" in the context of user comprehension for an OTC product.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not Applicable. The Tenscare KegelFit is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a "training set" of data. It is a hardware medical device with pre-programmed settings.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

Not Applicable. As there is no AI/ML algorithm or training set, this question does not apply.

V The intended use of the device:

KegelFit is a non-implanted muscle stimulator designed to treat female stress urinary incontinence. It applies stimulation to the pelvic floor muscles to improve strength and support.

The intended use and indications for use of the new device are the same as those of the predicate device Apex K141158

KegelFit for over-the-counter use was evaluated for safety in two ways:-

-Ability to self-diagnose and identify whether contraindication apply was established by detailed comparison with labeling and instructional packaging of the predicate device Apex K141158

-Ability to use effectively was established by analysis of customer reviews over 4 years and 13758 OTC sales of the predicate device itouch Sure K103698 through Amazon UK. The user manual was revised three times over this period in response to customer feedback and to comply with EN60601-1-11.

The device labeling and packaging (which includes a box, detailed instructions for use, and laminated quick reference guide) allow the end user to accurately self-diagnose and use the product to treat stress urinary incontinence.

VI Equivalence Comparison to the Predicate Devices

Electrical muscle stimulation is the technological principle for both KeqelFit and the predicate devices, Apex (K141158) and itouch Sure (K103698). It is based on the use of the electrical muscle stimulator to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles.

Table 6 below summarizes the shared and unique technological elements between the KegelFit, itouch Sure, and Apex devices. The technology, engineering, performance and user interface for KegelFit is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Intended Use has been changed from prescription to OTC and from all types of incontinence only, and the available settings and labeling have been modified to allow for this change. The intended use, labeling and user interface for KegelFit is substantially equivalent to the predicate device Apex.

The KegelFit is a relabelled version of the itouch Sure(K103698). The components, electronics, and accessories are identical. The display and software have been modified in line with the change in Intended Use. The physical differences between the two versions of the product are:

KegelFitItouch SureExplanation

KeypadOn/Off Colour codedON/OFF buttons colour coded to clarify operation

{6}------------------------------------------------

The KegelFit is substantially equivalent to the itouch Sure, which has been approved for home and hospital use on prescription.

Safety and effectiveness for home use with professional instruction is therefore established.

The KegelFit packaging and instructions for use are substantially equivalent to that of the Apex for the relevant criteria:-

  • . How well the lay user can self-select themselves as being appropriate users
  • Whether the lay user can understand all indications, contraindications, warnings and . precautions, and be able to identify whether they are within any contraindicated group.

This Substantial Equivalence is established by detailed comparison of labeling in Section 12. The KegelFit uses identical or substantially equivalent wording, frequency of use, and positioning of Intended Audience, Contraindications, Warnings and Cautions.

The final comparison is that of the ability of the lay user to be able to apply the treatment safely and correctly according to the instructions for use without training.

TensCare presents analysis of Customer Reviews from OTC sales of 13,768 units of itouch Sure through Amazon UK and 21 customer questionnaires sent to 120 users of itouch Sure as evidence that the lay user finds the device easy to use and the instructions easy to follow.

Clinical Testing: A clinical literature evaluation was conducted to provide evidence of the safety and efficacv of electrical stimulation for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. See section 20.1 Labelling Comparison: The Labelling is substantially equivalent to that of the predicate device Apex for self diagnosis and identification of contraindications and to the predicate device itouch Sure for operating instructions. A detailed comparison of labeling between the KegelFit and the predicate device Apex was conducted to assess the safety of the KegelFit device for over-the-counter use. The objectives of this comparison were to: 1) determine if a subject can self-identify as having stress urinary incontinence using package labeling 2) self-limit usage if a contraindication is present

Customer Review Analysis:

An analysis of customer reviews of the predicate device itouch Sure from 13758 OTC sales in the EU was used to determine whether the subject can safely use the KeqelFit device using only the instructions for use (IFU) provided. A questionnaire was sent to a further 120 Ebay UK OTC customers.

Risk Management Summary

KeqelFit has been designed according to EasyMed's internal procedures with traceability between the design inputs, design outputs, verification and validation activities. KegelFit has been evaluated for risks according to EasyMed's internal procedures based on ISO 14971. The risks associated with KegelFit were reduced to as low as possible and the risk/benefit analysis was acceptable.

Conclusion

The non-clinical data supports the safety of the device, and the hardware and software verification and validation demonstrates thatKegelFit performs as intended in the specified use conditions.

The clinical literature evaluation, as well as the technological comparison to the predicate device, supports the use of electrical stimulation as an effective treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women.

Both KeqelFit and the predicate device Apex are intended for over-the-counter use. A comparison of labeling and instructions was completed to support the safety of the product labeling for selfdiagnosis and use.

An analysis of Customer Reviews of OTC sales in the EU of the predicate device itouch Sure was completed to support the Usability of the device without training. In addition, customer questionnaires were sent to 120 users of itouch Sure who purchased OTC through ebay UK, and 21 responses were received and analysed. The data included within this submission supports the use of KegelFit for over-the-counter as safe and effective. The KegelFit unit is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and any differences between the devices do not pose any new questions of safety and effectiveness.
