The proposed device(s) are sold non-sterile and are intended to be single use, disposable device.

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the premarket notification (510(k)) for a Disposable Surgical Face Mask, and as such, it does not detail a study involving AI or human reader performance for diagnostic purposes. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through non-clinical performance and biocompatibility testing.

Therefore, many of the requested criteria related to AI/human reader studies, expert ground truth, adjudication, and large-scale data sets for training/testing are not applicable to this type of device and submission.

However, I can provide the information that is available in the document regarding the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, primarily focusing on its physical and biological performance characteristics.


Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (for a Disposable Surgical Face Mask)

The acceptance criteria for this medical device are based on demonstrating that the proposed Disposable Surgical Face Mask is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device (K133070 Surgical Face Mask). This is primarily achieved through non-clinical testing against established industry standards.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are derived from ASTM F2100-11 for Level 2 classification, MIL-M-36945C, 16 CFR 1610, and ISO 10993 standards for biocompatibility. The reported device performance is the result of the non-clinical tests conducted on the proposed device.

ITEMAcceptance Criteria (ASTM F2100 Level 2 / Other Standard)Reported Device Performance (Proposed Device)Remark (vs. Predicate)
Fluid Resistance Performance (ASTM F1862-13)29 out of 32 pass at 120 mmHg32 out of 32 pass at 120 mmHgSE (Substantially Equivalent)
Particulate Filtration Efficiency (ASTM F2299)$\ge$ 98%98.46%SE
Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (ASTM F2101)$\ge$ 98%98.7%SE
Differential Pressure (Delta P) (MIL-M-36954C)< 5.0 mmH2O/cm²4.2 mmH2O/cm²SE
Flammability (16 CFR 1610)Class 1Class 1 (Non Flammable)SE
Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5)Not cytotoxicUnder the conditions of the study, not cytotoxicity effectSE
Irritation (ISO 10993-10)Not an irritantUnder the conditions of the study, not an irritantSE
Sensitization (ISO 10993-10)Not a sensitizerUnder conditions of the study, not a sensitizer.SE

Note: "SE" in the remark column indicates that the proposed device performed as well as, or better than, the predicate device and met the established performance requirements, thus demonstrating substantial equivalence.

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

The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes for the material performance tests (e.g., how many masks were tested for BFE or PFE). However, for Fluid Resistance, the sample size is explicitly stated as 32, with the acceptance criterion being 29 out of 32 passes.

The data provenance is from non-clinical tests conducted on the proposed device. The country of origin for the manufacturing and potentially the testing facility is China (Xiantao Rayxin Medical Products Co., Ltd. is located in Hubei, China). The studies are inherently prospective in nature, as they involve conducting new tests on specific samples of the manufactured device to demonstrate compliance.

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

This information is not applicable to this type of submission. The "ground truth" for material performance and biocompatibility is established by the standardized test methods themselves (e.g., ASTM, ISO standards). These standards outline the methodology and criteria for determining performance characteristics like filtration efficiency or biocompatibility, which are measured objectively. There are no human "experts" establishing unique ground truth interpretations for each test sample as in a diagnostic image analysis study. The tests are lab-based, quantitative measurements.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are used in studies where human readers interpret data (e.g., medical images) and their interpretations need to be reconciled to establish a consensus ground truth. In the case of material performance testing, the results are quantitative and objective, directly measured by laboratory instruments and procedures outlined in the test 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

This information is not applicable. This submission is for a physical medical device (surgical face mask), not an AI-powered diagnostic tool. Therefore, no MRMC study, human reader assistance, or AI component is involved.

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

This information is not applicable. This submission is for a physical medical device (surgical face mask), not an algorithm or software as a medical device (SaMD).

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this device is based on established industry standards and objective measurements of the device's physical and biological performance characteristics. These include:

  • Standard Specifications: ASTM F2100-11 for performance of materials in medical face masks.
  • Standard Test Methods: e.g., ASTM F1862-13 (Fluid Resistance), ASTM F2101-14 (BFE), ASTM F2299-03 (PFE), MIL-M-36945C (Differential Pressure), 16 CFR 1610 (Flammability).
  • Biocompatibility Standards: ISO 10993-5 (Cytotoxicity), ISO 10993-10 (Irritation and Skin Sensitization).

The ground truth is inherent in the pass/fail criteria or quantitative thresholds defined by these widely accepted standards.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not applicable. This submission is for a physical device, and does not involve AI or machine learning models that require training sets of data.

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

This information is not applicable for the reasons stated in point 8.

§ 878.4040 Surgical apparel.

(a)
Identification. Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must:
(A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and
(B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device.
(iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation.
(2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9.
