Intended Use

SureFine Pen Needle is intended for use with a pen injector for the subcutaneous injection of insulin.

Device Description

The SureFine Pen Needle is designed for use with a pen injector for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. The pen needle consists of a needle, hub, and shield assembly. Blister paper covers primary container. The primary container maintains sterility of the needle because primary container covers the hub and the needle tube with blister paper sealed on the opening hole of primary container.

The needle hub can be connected with the pen. The hub has internal threads, which allows it to be screwed onto the pen. The needle shield is intended to provide physical protection to the needle tube.

The SureFine Pen Needle is offered in various gauges sizes (29G, 30G, 32G) and Lengths (4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 12.7mm). These are sterile (Eo gas sterilization) and non-pyrogenic. The pen needles are disposable, single use devices.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the SureFine Pen Needle, a medical device. It does not describe a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria but rather demonstrates substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

Here's an analysis of the provided information in the context of your request:

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

The document provides a comparative table between the SureFine Pen Needle (Subject Device) and its predicate device (ShinaPen® K113186). The acceptance criteria are implied by the performance specifications of the predicate device, and the "reported device performance" is essentially the subject device's matching of these characteristics.

Beyond this comparative table, the document states that the SureFine Pen Needle was "designed and successfully tested to meet the applicable requirements outlined in ISO 7864:1993, ISO 9626:1991 and ISO 11608-2:2012." The specific clauses listed for each ISO standard represent the acceptance criteria for those performance aspects.

For example, for ISO 7864:1993, acceptance criteria would be:

  • Clause 4: Cleanliness requirements met.
  • Clause 5: Limits for acidity or alkalinity met.
  • Clause 6: Limits for extractable metals met.
  • Clause 7: Size designation accurate.
  • Clause 11.3: Freedom from defects.
  • Clause 11.4: Lubricant requirements met.
  • Clause 12: Needle point specifications met.
  • Clause 13.1: Bond between hub and needle tube specifications met.
  • Clause 13.2 a): Patency of lumen demonstrated.

Similar detailed acceptance criteria are implied for the other ISO standards and biocompatibility tests mentioned.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document broadly mentions "Performance Testing", "Biocompatibility Testing", and "Sterilization and Shelf-life Testing" without specifying the exact sample sizes for each test. These were non-clinical tests.

  • Test Type: Non-clinical (bench testing, biocompatibility, sterilization validation).
  • Data Provenance: The manufacturer is SHINA MED CORPORATION, located in the Republic of Korea. The testing was conducted to international standards (ISO).
  • Retrospective/Prospective: These are prospective tests on the SureFine Pen Needle device design.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This information is not applicable/provided in the context of this 510(k) submission. This type of submission relies on non-clinical performance and substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not expert-derived ground truth as would be relevant for diagnostic AI/imaging devices. The "ground truth" here is the adherence to established engineering standards (ISO) and the characteristics of the predicate device.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This information is not applicable/provided. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies, particularly for diagnostic devices where multiple readers interpret images or data, and discrepancies need resolution. This document describes bench testing and demonstrates substantial equivalence, not clinical evaluation with human readers.

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. This type of study is relevant for AI-powered diagnostic devices, which is not what the SureFine Pen Needle is. The document explicitly states: "No prospective clinical trials were conducted in support of this Traditional 510(k)."

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

A standalone performance evaluation was done in the sense that the device itself (the pen needle) was tested against technical specifications and international standards (ISO). However, this is not an "algorithm-only" standalone performance study as described for AI devices. The device's performance was evaluated inherently by its physical and material properties and its function when used with compatible pen injectors.

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

The "ground truth" for this device's evaluation is primarily engineering specifications, material science standards, and established international performance standards (ISO standards). For biocompatibility, the ground truth is defined by the results of specific biological evaluations (e.g., cytotoxicity, irritation, sensitization, systemic toxicity, pyrogenicity tests). For functional compatibility, the ground truth is simply successful operation with specified insulin injectors.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not applicable/provided. The SureFine Pen Needle is a mechanical medical device, not an AI or machine learning model. Therefore, there is no "training set" in the context of machine learning.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

This information is not applicable/provided. As explained above, there is no training set.

LAL testing was performed to demonstrate that bacterial endotoxins are adequately mitigated. Shelf-life testing supports a shelf-life of 3-years after sterilization.

Clinical Data

No prospective clinical trials were conducted in support of this Traditional 510(k).

8. Discussion

SureFine Pen Needle has the same intended use, technological characteristics, materials of construction and performance specifications as the predicate K113186 (Shina Pen Needle) and thus it performs in a substantial equivalent manner to the predicate device.

9. Conclusion

Based on the information provided in this premarket notification, SHINA MED CORPORATION concludes that the SureFine Pen Needle is substantially equivalent to predicate device.

§ 880.5570 Hypodermic single lumen needle.

(a)
Identification. A hypodermic single lumen needle is a device intended to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, parts of the body below the surface of the skin. The device consists of a metal tube that is sharpened at one end and at the other end joined to a female connector (hub) designed to mate with a male connector (nozzle) of a piston syringe or an intravascular administration set.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
