Intended Use

The Fuse Gastroscopy System is intended for diagnostic visualization of the digestive tract. The system also provides access for therapeutic interventions using standard endoscopy tools. The Fuse Gastroscopy System is indicated for use within the upper digestive tract (including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum). The Fuse Gastroscopy System consists of camera heads, endoscopes, video system, light source and other ancillary equipment.

Device Description

The Fuse Gastroscopy System is a GI platform indicated for diagnostic visualization and therapeutic intervention of the upper digestive tract. The purpose of this submission is to propose new biopsy channel supplier and also to present several design changes that enhance device usability and robustness. The indications for use, fundamental technology and operation principals of the legally marketed device were not changed. The system labeled for healthcare facilities/hospitals enables physicians to view a high-resolution wide field of view of up to 245° (measured diagonally), or 210° (measured horizontally)

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the "Fuse® Gastroscopy System" by EndoChoice Inc. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Fuse PeerScope HG, K131422) after making modifications to the existing device. It does not contain information about a study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the context of diagnostic performance or a comparative effectiveness study with human readers.

The performance testing described here is focused on engineering verification and validation of design changes, ensuring safety and effectiveness after modifications, rather than establishing diagnostic performance acceptance criteria for a new AI or image analysis algorithm.

Therefore, many of the requested sections about acceptance criteria, diagnostic performance, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, and standalone algorithm performance cannot be extracted from this document.

Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted or inferred based on the provided text, and what cannot:

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
This information is not explicitly provided in terms of diagnostic performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or AUC against specific acceptance criteria. The performance testing section states: "All test results passed, demonstrating that the device is safe and effective in comparison with the predicate device." This refers to internal engineering/safety testing, not diagnostic accuracy.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:
Not applicable. The document discusses performance testing for mechanical, electrical, and reprocessing aspects, not a clinical diagnostic test set.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
Not applicable. Ground truth for diagnostic performance is not mentioned as this is not a diagnostic performance study.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:
Not applicable.

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 device is a gastroscopy system (an endoscope), not an AI or image analysis system intended to assist human readers in diagnosis.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This is not an AI or algorithm-based device.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
Not applicable, as it's not a diagnostic performance study.

8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable, as it's not an AI or algorithm-based device requiring training data.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable.

Summary of available information:

The document describes the modifications made to an existing medical device (Fuse® Gastroscopy System) and the engineering-focused performance testing conducted to ensure these modifications did not negatively impact the device's safety and effectiveness.

  • Acceptance Criteria & Performance (General): The general acceptance criterion was that "All test results passed," demonstrating the device is "safe and effective in comparison with the predicate device." This relates to bench tests (functional, performance, software), laboratory safety/EMC compatibility, biocompatibility, and reprocessing testing. Specific numerical acceptance criteria for these tests are not provided in this summary.
  • Study Type: This was a series of engineering verification and validation tests rather than a clinical diagnostic study. It aimed to demonstrate that design modifications (e.g., new biopsy channel supplier, angulation knob brake, umbilical cord plug, locking lever, 90-degree umbilical cord orientation, updated reprocessing methods) maintained the device's safety and effectiveness compared to the predicate.
  • Sample Size/Data Provenance for these engineering tests: Not explicitly stated, though implicitly the tests would have involved a number of manufactured devices or components. Data provenance is "within EndoChoice's laboratory or by accredited third parties."
  • Ground Truth for these engineering tests: Established by predefined engineering specifications, regulatory standards (listed in the document), and comparison to the performance of the predicate device. For example, reprocessing testing would have had objective criteria for efficacy.

Performance testing:

The following testing has been performed to demonstrate that the design outputs of the modified version meet the design input requirements. The tests were performed within EndoChoice's laboratory or by accredited third parties.

  • In house Bench tests functional, performance, and software testing ●
  • Laboratory Safety / EMC compatibility ●
  • Laboratory Biocompatibility testing ●
  • Laboratory Reprocessing testing ●

{5}------------------------------------------------

All test results passed, demonstrating that the device is safe and effective in comparison with the predicate device.

The following standards were used / relied upon for testing:

AAMI / ANSIES 60601-1:2005/(R) 2012 and C1:2009/(R) 2012 AAMI / ANSI ES60601-1:2005/A1:2012 IEC 60601-1-2: 2007-03 IEC 60601-2-18 2009-08 IEC 62304:2006 ISO 10993:2009 Part #1 ISO 10993:2009 Part #5 ISO 10993:2010 Part #10 ISO 10993:2012 Part #12 ISO 8600-1:2013 ISO 8600-3:1997 ISO 8600-4:2014 ISO 8600-6:2005 ASTM E 1837- 96 (reapproved 2007)

Substantial Equivalence:

The data presented above demonstrate that:

  • a. The modified version of the Fuse Gastroscopy System and the unmodified version PeerScope HG (K131422), the legally marketed predicate, have the same intended use and indications for use in the upper digestive tract.
  • b. The modified version of the Fuse Gastroscopy System uses the same technological characteristics as the predicate.
  • C. The modified version contains similar materials, and similar reprocessing techniques, except for working channel. This was tested for reprocessing and biocompatibility.

Conclusion:

Based on the results of verification, validation, and performance testing, the impact of the above differences is insignificant in terms of the device safety and effectiveness for the device's intended use. The modified device performs as well as the predicate in all testing performed. It is the opinion of EndoChoice Inc., that the modified version of the Fuse Gastroscopy System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness.
