Intended Use

ShineMed Reloadable Open Cutting Staplers (ROCS) have applications in abdominal, gynecological, pediatric and thoracic surgical procedures for resection, transection and creation of anastomosis.

ShineMed Curved Intraluminal Cutting Staplers (CICS) have applications throughout the alimentary tract for the creation of end-to-end, end-to-side and side-to-side anastomoses in both open and laparoscopic surgeries, including bariatric surgery.

Device Description

Both ShineMed Reloadable Open Cutting Staplers and predicate DST Series™ GIA™ Staplers place two, double-staggered rows of titanium staples and simultaneously divide the tissues between the two double rows. The size of the staples is determined by the selection of the appropriate single use loading unit that is available in 60mm, 80mm, and 100mm lengths:

  • . 3.8mm staple size single use loading unit (blue cartridge) (60mm, 80mm, and 100mm lengths)
  • . 4.8mm staple size single use loading unit (green cartridge) (60mm, 80mm, and 100mm lengths)

Both ShineMed Curved Intraluminal Cutting Staplers and predicate Autosuture™ Circular EEA™ Surgical Staplers place a circular, double staggered row of titanium staples and resect the excess tissue, creating a circular anastomosis. They are indicated for use in the creation of anastomoses in various surgical procedures in both open and laparoscopic surgeries. The stapler is offered in 25mm (white), 28mm (blue), and 31mm (green) diameters and with 4.8mm staple size.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the 510(k) premarket notification for two medical devices: the ShineMed Reloadable Open Cutting Stapler (ROCS) and the ShineMed Curved Intraluminal Cutting Stapler (CICS). The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, primarily through non-clinical bench testing. There is no information about an AI/algorithm-based device, nor is there data from a clinical trial or a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) study involving human readers.

Therefore, the following information is extracted and presented as per the request, acknowledging the absence of AI/clinical/MRMC data.


Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

The devices (ShineMed Reloadable Open Cutting Stapler and ShineMed Curved Intraluminal Cutting Stapler) were evaluated against the performance of their respective predicate devices. The acceptance criteria are implicit in the comparison studies and aim to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the legally marketed predicates.

Study Details

This submission is a 510(k) premarket notification primarily relying on non-clinical bench testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not on AI/algorithmic performance or human clinical studies.

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • The document does not specify a distinct "test set" in terms of patient data. The evaluation was done using non-clinical bench tests on the devices themselves.
    • Data Provenance: The data is from laboratory bench testing of the ShineMed devices and comparisons against predicate devices. Country of origin for the testing data is not explicitly stated, but the submission is to the U.S. FDA. The data is prospective as it pertains to the evaluation of the new ShineMed devices.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • This is not applicable as the evaluation was non-clinical bench testing. Ground truth in a clinical sense (e.g., expert consensus on medical images) was not established. Performance was directly measured or visually inspected against engineering specifications and predicate device performance.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not applicable, as this was non-clinical bench testing, not a clinical study requiring adjudication of expert interpretations.
  4. 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 MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The device is a surgical stapler, not an AI software/device that assists human readers.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:

    • Not applicable. The device is a physical surgical stapler, not an algorithm.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    • For performance metrics (e.g., staple integrity, leak/burst pressure, dimensional measurements), the "ground truth" or reference was based on engineering specifications, direct measurements, visual inspections compared to predicate device performance, and adherence to recognized standards (e.g., ASTM F1980 for shelf-life, ISO 10993 for biocompatibility).
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device.
