Intended Use

The FloTrac sensor is indicated for use in intravascular pressure monitoring. It is also indicated for use with the Edwards arterial pressure based cardiac output monitoring devices or hardware to measure cardiac output.

The VolumeView sensor is indicated for use in intravascular pressure monitoring. It is also indicated for use with the Edwards arterial pressure based cardiac output monitoring devices or hardware to measure cardiac output.

Device Description

The Edwards Lifesciences FloTrac and VolumeView sensors are sterile, single use devices that monitors pressures when attached to pressure monitoring catheters. The FloTrac and VolumeView sensors are also capable of providing cardiac output measurements when connect to compatible Edwards monitoring systems.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the FloTrac Sensor and VolumeView Sensor. While it lists performance specifications and mentions functional safety testing, it does not contain a detailed study with acceptance criteria, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or specific reported device performance data in the way a clinical study report would.

Instead, the document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices (K043065 and K142749) through performance testing. The information provided is primarily related to the device's technical specifications and the conclusion that it is safe, effective, and substantially equivalent.

Here's an attempt to extract the requested information based on what is available, noting where information is explicitly not provided:


1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Acceptance Criteria (Key Performance Specifications)Reported Device Performance
Integral flush device: 3 mL/hr(Not explicitly stated as a separate measured result, but implied to meet this specification as part of performance testing)
Operating Pressure Range: -50 to + 300 mmHg(Not explicitly stated as a separate measured result, but implied to meet this specification as part of performance testing)
Nonlinearity and Hysteresis: ±1.5% of reading or ± 1 mmHg, whichever is greaterSuccessfully passed pressure accuracy (nonlinearity and hysteresis) testing post MRI exposure. (Specific numerical results are not provided).

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance

  • Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified. The document states "Performance testing was conducted" and "functional performance testing post MRI exposure" but does not give the number of devices or data points tested.
  • Data Provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective): Not specified.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

  • This information is not provided. The testing described appears to be technical performance testing against engineering specifications, not a clinical study requiring expert ground truth for interpretation.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

  • This information is not provided. As the testing appears to be technical performance validation against specifications, an adjudication method for ground truth in the context of clinical interpretation would not be 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. This device is a sensor for intravascular pressure monitoring and cardiac output measurement. It is not an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging device, so an MRMC comparative effectiveness study involving human readers and AI assistance is not applicable.

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

  • The device itself is a standalone sensor. The document states "Performance testing was conducted to compare the proposed device(s) to the predicate device(s)" and "The Flotrac and VolumeView Sensors have successfully passed functional performance testing post MRI exposure. This testing included pressure accuracy (nonlinearity and hysteresis)." This implies standalone technical performance testing of the device.

7. The type of ground truth used

  • The "ground truth" for the performance testing described would be the established engineering specifications or reference measurements for pressure accuracy, flush rate, and operating pressure range. For example, a calibrated pressure source would serve as the ground truth for pressure accuracy measurements.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable / Not provided. This device is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

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

  • Not applicable / Not provided. This device is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

Dear Andrew Mazurkiewicz:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in

{1}------------------------------------------------

the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address
