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

  • Sample Size: For almost all tests (Basis Weight, Grab Tensile, Mullen Burst, WVTR, Flammability, Trap Tear, Water Impact, Hydrostatic Pressure, ASTM F1670, ASTM F1671), the sample size used was n=32.
  • Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin of the data. However, it indicates that the tests were performed on "Final finished goods, that were twice EO sterilized (Cardinal Health SmartGown™ surgical gown)". This suggests the data is prospective as it's from testing the manufactured device against established performance standards.

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

This is a medical device (surgical gown) performance testing, not a diagnostic AI study. Therefore, there are no human experts establishing "ground truth" in the traditional sense of medical image interpretation or clinical diagnosis. The "ground truth" here is the adherence to established internationally recognized material testing standards and regulatory guidance (ASTM, AATCC, AAMI PB70:2012, FDA Guidance). The experts involved would be the testing laboratories and their personnel following these standard protocols. The document does not specify their individual qualifications beyond executing the tests according to the standards.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. As this is not a study involving human interpretation or clinical outcomes, there is no adjudication method in the context of resolving differing expert opinions. The outcome of each test is a direct measurement or observation against a predefined standard.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs Without AI Assistance

Not applicable. This is not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive device. It is a surgical gown, and its performance is evaluated through standardized physical and barrier protection tests, not through human reader interpretation.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or AI. It is a physical medical device.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used for this device's acceptance is based on established material testing standards and regulatory performance classifications:

  • ASTM International Standards: Various ASTM standards (e.g., D3776, D5034, D5733, D774, E96, F1670, F1671) define the methods for testing physical properties and barrier resistance.
  • AATCC Standards: AATCC standards (e.g., 42, 127) define methods for water resistance.
  • AAMI PB70:2012 Liquid Barrier and Performance Classification of Protective Apparel and Surgical Drapes: This standard sets the performance levels for surgical apparel, with the device aiming for Level 4.
  • 16 CFR Part 1610 (Flammability): A regulatory standard for flammability.

The device's performance is compared directly against the specified requirements within these standards.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device that requires a training set. The device is a physical product whose performance is evaluated through empirical testing against established standards.

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

Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

Table 4 highlights the equivalencies and comparison between proposed Cardinal Health SmartGown™ surgical gown and predicate Cardinal Health SmartGown™ surgical gown.

Final finished goods, that were twice EO sterilized (Cardinal Health SmartGown1™ surgical gown), were tested. The products were tested in the critical zones of the body and sleeve to generate test data shown in Table 4 above, including back panels where noted. Test results establish that the product meets predetermined acceptance criteria of specifications for intended use, to demonstrate device is safe and effective, as noted in Table 4 above.

Mass Per Unit Area (Basis Weight) of Woven Fabric .

ASTM D3776-09 Test Methods for Mass Per Unit Area (Weight) of Woven Fabric results were reported on the Body, Sleeve and Back Panel materials. This method was used to characterize the basis weight of each fabric. The basis weight test indicates how much a square meter of the fabric weighs. Each test specimen is cut to a specific size and the mass of the specimen is measured on a laboratory scale. The basis weight is calculated from that information. Results are reported in grams per square meter. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported in mean, min and max.

Breaking Strength and Elongation of Textile Fabrics (Grab tensile) .

ASTM D5034-09 Standard Test Method for Breaking Strength and Elongation of Textile Fabrics (Grab Test) results were reported on the Body, Sleeve and Back Panel materials. This method was used to characterize the tensile strength of each fabric. The grab tensile test indicates the force a fabric can withstand before tearing when pulled in a given direction. The test was performed in both roll orientations; cross direction (CD) and machine direction (MD). The test specimen is placed in the clamps of a tensile testing machine. The test specimen is subjected to an increasing force as the jaws move apart at a specified constant rate. Results are reported as peak force values. Peak values reflect the maximum force the sample endured before the initiation of failure. Results are reported in pounds of force. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported in mean, min and max.

Bursting Strength of Textile Fabrics (Mullen burst) .

{9}------------------------------------------------

ASTM D774/D774M-97 (2007) Standard Test Method for Bursting Strength of Textile Fabrics (Mullen Burst) results were reported on the Body and Sleeve materials. This method was used to characterize the burst strength of each fabric. The bursting strength test indicates how the fabric will resist puncture by a blunt object. Each fabric specimen is clamped over a flexible diaphragm. The diaphragm is expanded by pressure to the point of specimen rupture. The difference between the total pressure required to rupture the specimen and the pressure on the diaphragm at time of specimen burst with clamp released is reported as the Mullen burst strength. Results are reported in pounds per square inch. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported in mean, min and max.

Water Vapor Transmission of Materials, Upright cup ●

ASTM E96/E96M-13 Standard Test method for Water Vapor Transmission of Materials, Upright cup (WVTR) results were reported on the Body and Sleeve materials. This method was used to characterize the water vapor transmission rate of each fabric over a range of temperatures at 50%RH (23°C, 27°C, 32°C). The water vapor transmission rate test specimen is affixed over a sample cup of water. The prepped sample cup is weighed at time 0. The prepped sample cup is then is heated to the target temperature, in chamber with constant %RH. The prepped sample cup is then measured at predetermined time points to measure the mass loss (water vapor transmission thru the sample). The water vapor transmission rate results are reported as mass of water per unit of area per period of time (g/m2/24 hours). The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported in mean, min and max.

Standard for the Flammability of Clothing Textiles ●

16 CFR Part 1610, Standard for the Flammability of Clothing Textiles, provides methods of testing the flammability of clothing and textiles intended to be used for clothing, and establishes three classes of flammability. The standard sets forth the requirements which textiles shall meet to be so classified. Class 1 is the best performing class. Textiles meeting these requirements are generally accepted by the trade as having no unusual burning characteristics. The flammability test indicates the inherent flammability classification of the surgical gown. Flammability results were reported on the Body, Sleeve and Back Panel materials. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported as the Flammability Classification Level.

Tearing Strength of Nonwoven Fabrics by the Trapezoid Procedure (Trap tear) �

ASTM D5733-99 Standard Test Method for Tearing Strength of Nonwoven Fabrics by the Trapezoid Procedure results were reported on the Back Panel material. This method

{10}------------------------------------------------

was used to characterize the tear strength of the material. The trapezoidal tear test indicates how the fabric will resist tearing around an existing hole or tear. The test was performed in both roll orientations; cross direction (CD) and machine direction (MD). A tear of specified size and orientation is initiated on the test specimen. The test specimen is placed in the clamps of a tensile testing machine. The test specimen is subjected to an increasing force as the jaws move apart at a specified constant rate. Results are reported as average trapezoidal tear strength, in pounds of force. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported in mean, min and max.

. Water Resistance: Impact Penetration Test

AATCC 42-2013 Water Resistance: Impact Penetration Test results were reported on the Back Panel material. This method was used to characterize the water resistance to impact penetration of the material. The impact penetration test measures the fabric's resistance to penetration by liquids, which is a key barrier property. The test specimen and a fluid blotter paper are cut to a predetermined size. The blotter is then weighed prior to testing. The test specimen and blotter are then clamped onto the test fixture (test specimen on top of blotter). A predetermined amount of water is allowed to spray on the sample from a fixed distance and spray head. The blotter is then weighed to determine the amount of water penetration thru the sample. The amount of liquid penetration is the final blotter weight less the initial blotter weight. The results are reported in grams. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported in mean. min and max.

Water Resistance: Hydrostatic Pressure Test .

AATCC 127:2013 Water Resistance: Hydrostatic Pressure Test results were reported on the Back Panel material. This method was used to characterize the resistance of a fabric to the penetration of water under hydrostatic pressure, which is a key barrier property. The test specimen is clamped the test chamber, which is filled with water to contact the sample. The water pressure is gradually increased, exerting greater pressure onto the fabric. The unexposed side of the fabric is observed for water droplets, signaling failure of the barrier feature of the test fabric. Eventually, leakage occurs, marking the end of the test. The greater water pressure, the more repellent the fabric. Results are reported in centimeters of water. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported in mean, min and max.

  • Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing to Penetration by Synthetic . Blood - Gown

{11}------------------------------------------------

ASTM F1670-08, Standard Test Method for Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing to Penetration by Synthetic Blood, evaluates the effectiveness of materials used in protective clothing for protecting the wearer against contact with body fluids that potentially contain blood-borne pathogens. This test method is intended to identify protective clothing material candidates for further testing according to a more rigorous procedure involving a surrogate for blood-borne pathogens. The test specimen is clamped onto the open face of pressure chamber of defined size, with a retaining ring around the outer circumference of the specimen. The pressure chamber is filled with synthetic blood. The specimen is exposed to the synthetic blood for a defined dwell period of time at ambient pressure. Then, chamber is pressurized, at a specified constant rate, to a maximum of 2 psi, for a defined period of time. The chamber is then allowed to revert to ambient pressure, and the specimen is exposed to the synthetic blood for a defined dwell period of time, to the conclusion of the test. A mesh screen may be used to support the specimen. Throughout the cycle, the reverse side of the fabric is observed for synthetic blood droplets, signaling failure of the barrier feature of the test fabric. If no droplets are observed thru the entire cycle, the sample passes. Results are reported as pass/fail. Procedure B was used, with a mesh screen to support the sample during testing. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported as pass/fail.

Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing to Penetration by Blood-Borne Pathogens Using Phi-X174 Bacteriophage Penetration as a Test System - Gown

ASTM F1671/F1671M-13, Standard Test Method for Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing to Penetration by Blood-Borne Pathogens Using Phi-X174 Bacteriophage Penetration as a Test System, evaluates the effectiveness of materials used in protective clothing for protecting the wearer against contact with blood-borne pathogens using a surrogate microbe suspended in a body fluid simulant under conditions of continuous contact. The test specimen is clamped onto the open face of a pressure chamber, with a retaining ring around the outer circumference of the specimen. The pressure chamber is filled with fluid test media containing a surrogate microbe. The specimen is exposed to the fluid media for a defined dwell period of time under ambient pressure. Then, chamber is pressurized, at a specified constant rate, to a maximum of 2 psi, for a defined period of time. The chamber is then allowed to revert to ambient pressure, and the specimen is exposed to the fluid media for a defined dwell period of time, to the conclusion of the test. A mesh screen may be used to support the specimen. Throughout the cycle, the reverse side of the fabric is observed for fluid media droplets, signaling failure of the barrier feature of the test fabric. If no droplets are observed thru the entire cycle, the sample will then be plated for bacteriological assay. A specimen showing liguid penetration constitutes a failure. A specimen assay identifying evidence of viable microbe that penetrates the material, even when liquid penetration is not visible, constitutes a failure. Results are reported as passffail.

{12}------------------------------------------------

This method was used to characterize the AAMI PB70;2012 Liquid Barrier Performance Classification of Protective Apparel and Drapes Intended for Use in Health Care Facilities performance level, as compliant to level 4. Procedure B was used, with a mesh screen to support the sample during testing. The sample size used was n=32 and results were reported as pass/fail.

Nonwoven and nonwoven laminate materials are characterized by basis weight as opposed to thickness as basis weight is a more precise method to characterize nonwoven and nonwoven laminate performance. This is in compliance with physical specification requirements outlined in Section 3.a.1 of Guidance on Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions for Surgical Gowns and Surgical Drapes, issued on August 1, 1993, where it states that weight per square yard or thickness, may be used as applicable.
