The disposable insulin syringe is intended for medical purposes for the manual aspiration of insulin, and for the injection of insulin into parts of the body below the surface skin.
The Disposable Insulin Syringes are provided sterile, single use.
For the Disposable Insulin Syringes, they consist of six components: (1) orange needle cap (2) needle (3) piston (4) plunger (5) barrel (6) orange protective end cap. The materials for all components are listed in Table 1 Component material list.
The Disposable Insulin Syringes are available in different combination of syringe volumes and needle sizes. The range of syringe volume, needle gauge and needle length are listed in Table 2 syringe and needle specification.
This document describes the premarket notification for a Disposable Insulin Syringe (K151949). It does not contain information about an AI/ML powered device. Instead, it details the substantial equivalence to a predicate device, focusing on non-clinical performance and biocompatibility.
Therefore, many of the requested categories for AI/ML device studies are not applicable. I will extract the relevant information for the device's acceptance criteria and the studies conducted to meet them.
Here's the breakdown of the information that can be extracted from the provided text:

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for each test. The document generally refers to "non clinical tests" being conducted.
- Data Provenance: The device manufacturer is Jiangyin Caina Technology Company Incorporated, located in Jiangyin, Jiangsu, China. The testing was conducted as part of their submission without specifying the exact location of the testing laboratories, but it would presumably be in China or by accredited labs. The data is retrospective in the sense that it's submitted to demonstrate compliance for a device manufactured by the company.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
- Not Applicable: This is a submission for a non-AI/ML medical device. "Ground truth" in the context of expert consensus is not relevant here. Compliance is assessed against established international and ASTM standards for physical, chemical, and biological properties.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not Applicable: As this is not an AI/ML diagnostic or image interpretation device, adjudication methods by experts are not relevant. Compliance is measured against objective standards.
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 disposable insulin syringe, not an AI/ML powered diagnostic or clinical support tool.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
- Not Applicable: This device is not an algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Standards-based Compliance: The "ground truth" for this device's performance is adherence to recognized international and national standards (ISO, ASTM, USP) for medical devices. For biocompatibility, reliance was also placed on prior clearance (K113091) for materials with the same intended use.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not Applicable: This device does not involve a "training set" in the context of AI/ML. Manufacturing processes are validated through established quality control and testing protocols.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- Not Applicable: Not an AI/ML device.
§ 880.5860 Piston syringe.
(a)
Identification. A piston syringe is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of a calibrated hollow barrel and a movable plunger. At one end of the barrel there is a male connector (nozzle) for fitting the female connector (hub) of a hypodermic single lumen needle. The device is used to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, the body.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
