AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for Hydris™ Oral Rinse based on the provided document:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are implicitly derived from the comparison to the predicate device (Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse). The objective was to demonstrate that Hydris™ Oral Rinse is "not significantly different" in key performance characteristics.

Acceptance Criteria (Implicit from Predicate Comparison)Reported Device Performance (Hydris™ Oral Rinse)
Not significantly different in ability to retain moisture/hydrationPass / Not statistically different from Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse
Not significantly different in moisturization/hydration of soft tissue at a specific time and temperaturePass / Not statistically different from Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse

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

The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes used for the bench testing.
The data provenance is also not explicitly stated in terms of country of origin or whether it was retrospective or prospective. It is described as "Nonclinical Testing" and "Bench testing," implying laboratory-based testing rather than clinical trials with human subjects.

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

This information is not provided in the document. For this type of bench testing, "ground truth" would typically refer to established scientific methods and instruments used for measurement, rather than expert consensus on medical cases.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable as the evaluations were bench tests comparing physical properties, not interpretations of medical data requiring adjudication.

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

An MRMC study was not done. This document describes the clearance of an oral rinse, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device.

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

This question is not applicable as the device is an oral rinse, not an algorithm or AI system. The performance testing was standalone in the sense that it was bench testing of the product itself.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the performance evaluation was established through bench testing results using scientific measurements to assess properties like moisture retention and moisturization/hydration. The predicate device (Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse) served as the comparative standard.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This document does not describe the development of a machine learning algorithm, so there is no training set in this context.

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

This question is not applicable as there was no training set for a machine learning model.

Comparison of Predicate Device to Proposed device

{6}------------------------------------------------

Indications for Use Discussion

The wording found in the indications for use statement of the proposed Hydris™ Oral Rinse is consistent with that of the legally marketed primary predicate device. Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse. While there are differences in the wording of the indications-foruse statement for primary predicate Biotene Dry Mouth Oral Rinse and the proposed device Hydris Oral Rinse™ both devices share the same intended use, namely to provide symptomatic relief/treatment of dry mouth. Both the subject and predicate devices are also OTC.

Technological Characteristic Discussion

The predicate and proposed devices utilize the same fundamental technology. The mode of action of Hydris™Oral Rinse is substantially equivalent to that of the predicate device. The chemical composition of the proposed Hydris™Oral Rinse is similar to the primary predicate device Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse. Both the proposed and predicate devices contain ingredients such as water. humectants or moisturizers, thickening/binding agents, buffering agents, sweeteners, flavor, surfactants and preservatives, and both Hydris™Oral Rinse and its primary predicate Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse are similar in design, ingredients and packaging. Below is a summary of the technological characteristics compared to the primary predicate device.

Summary of Technological Characteristics Compared to Predicate Device

{7}------------------------------------------------

Discussion of Differences

There are also several differences between the proposed device and its primary predicate.

In particular, the variations in formula/composition for Hydris™Oral Rinse from the primary predicate device are as follows:

  • Sweeteners: Both devices use aqueous solutions and a sweetener, such as ● xylitol, sucralose or sodium saccharin as the sweetener. The proposed device features sodium Saccharin and sucralose as sweeteners, while the primary predicate employs xylitol. While the sweeteners vary between the two, in both predicate and proposed devices,
    the sweeteners are used to create a plant flavoring system and were chosen for their compatibility with the formula and the flavor.

  • Rheology Modifiers: Cellulose gum (carboxymethylcellulose, or CMC) was ● chosen
    as a thickener/rheology modifier for the gel based on its significant history of use in dental, oral care and food products. Xanthan gum was chosen for the proposed device for similar reasons. The resulting viscosity in the proposed Hydris™Oral Rinse and its predicate Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse are similar in nature to the predicate device.

  • Preservatives: An intentional decision was made not to use parabens in the proposed device. Alternatively, cetylpyridinium chloride, was added as a preservative as it is compatible with the formula at the given pH range. The choice of a binary preservative system results in an adequately preserved formulation of the proposed device when compared to its primary predicate. Despite differences in formula ingredients, these ingredients share similar functional roles within the formulas of both the proposed and predicate devices.
    To address the ingredients included in the proposed device, but not found in the primary predicate, a reference device, MedActive Gel and Spray (K152201), was introduced as it is a dry mouth formulation which contains the ingredients not found in the primary predicate. The table below distinguishes the specific ingredients found in Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse from those identified in the reference device, MedActive Gel and Spray.
