Intended Use

Laparoscope Lens Shield Device (LENS), a sterile, single-use and disposable laparoscopic accessory lens shield device, for various sizes of laparoscopes including standard and bariatric laparoscope, intended to maintain the intra-operative view of the surgical site during minimally invasive surgery by physically shielding the laparoscope lens from debris, grease, blood, and bodily fluids.

Device Description

The Laparoscope Lens Shield Device (LENS) is a laparoscopic accessory lens shielding device consisting of multi-lumen sheath that slides over the laparoscope. The sheath assembling consists of 2 concentric sheaths one outer and one end-to-end connected inner sheaths. The outer sheath provides protection and cover for the inner sheath and shielding film. It is intended to maintain the intra-operative view of the surgical site during minimally invasive surgery by physically shielding the laparoscope lens from debris, grease, blood, and bodily fluids.

AI/ML Overview

The Medeon Biodesign, Inc. Laparoscope Lens Shield Device (LENS) is a laparoscopic accessory lens shielding device designed to maintain the intra-operative view during minimally invasive surgery by physically shielding the laparoscope lens from debris, grease, blood, and bodily fluids. The device was deemed substantially equivalent to a previously cleared predicate device (K160172).

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and supporting studies, based on the provided document:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The FDA 510(k) summary provided does not explicitly define quantitative acceptance criteria for device performance as would be expected for an AI/ML device. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device by comparing intended use, technological characteristics, and showing that design modifications do not negatively impact safety or effectiveness.

Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Criteria (Implicitly based on substantial equivalence to K160172)Reported Device Performance (LENS - K170103)
Intended UseMaintain intra-operative view by shielding laparoscope lens from debris, grease, blood, and bodily fluids.Same as predicate device.
Target Patient PopulationPatients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.Same as predicate device.

Compatibility (Trocar)12mm12mm
Mechanical IntegrityDesign specifications fulfilled, and design modifications do not affect safety and function.Demonstrated through mechanical testing.

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

The document describes performance testing which can be likened to a "test set" for evaluation.

  • Biocompatibility Testing: The sample size for biocompatibility testing is not explicitly stated in terms of number of devices or test repetitions. The provenance is implied to be laboratory testing conducted according to recognized international standards (ISO 10993).
  • Mechanical Testing: The sample size for mechanical testing is not explicitly stated. This would involve specific numbers of devices or components undergoing various mechanical stresses. The provenance is implied to be laboratory testing.
  • Functional Testing: "Device functionality was tested in the animal model." The document does not specify the number of animals used, the species, or other details of the animal model. The provenance is an animal study.

Given the nature of the device (a physical accessory, not an AI/ML system), the concept of "country of origin of the data" and "retrospective or prospective" as typically applied to clinical data or AI training/test sets is not directly applicable here. The testing described is primarily in-vitro (biocompatibility, mechanical) and pre-clinical (animal model functional).

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

This question is not applicable in the context of this device and the provided document. The ground truth for biocompatibility is established by the results of standardized assays against ISO 10993 criteria, not expert consensus. The "ground truth" for mechanical integrity is adherence to design specifications verified through engineering tests. The "ground truth" for functional testing in the animal model would be the observable ability of the device to shield the lens and maintain the intra-operative view, likely assessed by the surgical team performing the animal procedure, but explicit expert involvement and qualifications for establishing this "ground truth" are not detailed.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This question is not applicable. Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) are typically used in clinical studies for AI/ML devices to resolve discrepancies in expert interpretation of medical images or data. The testing described for this physical device does not involve such expert review or adjudication processes for its performance metrics.

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 question is not applicable. The device is a physical laparoscopic accessory, not an AI/ML system, and therefore does not involve "human readers" or "AI assistance" in the sense of an MRMC study for diagnostic or prognostic AI.

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

This question is not applicable. The device is a physical laparoscopic accessory, not an algorithm or AI system.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The "ground truth" in this context is implicitly derived from:

  • Biocompatibility: Adherence to established biological safety standards (ISO 10993) based on laboratory assays.
  • Mechanical Integrity: Compliance with engineering design specifications validated through mechanical testing.
  • Functional Performance: Observable effectiveness in maintaining intra-operative view in an animal model. This would likely be clinical observation by the surgical team in the animal study.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This question is not applicable. The device is a physical product, not an AI/ML system, and therefore does not have a "training set."

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

This question is not applicable, as it relates to AI/ML systems which this device is not.

7. Performance Testing

The following performance testing for the design modification demonstrated substantial equivalence to the previously cleared predicate:

Biocompatibility testing

Per material change, the biocompatibility evaluation and testing of the Laparoscope Lens Shield Device (LENS) was conducted in accordance with the following standards and guidance, as recognized by the FDA:

  • FDA Guidance - Use of International Standard ISO- 10993-1, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices, Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a risk management process". dated 06-16-2016
  • . ISO 10993-5, Biological evaluation of medical devices- Part 5: Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity
  • ISO 10993-10, Biological evaluation of medical devices- Part 10: Tests for irritation and skin sensitization
  • ISO 10993-11, Biological evaluation of medical devices- Part 11: Tests for systemic toxicity.

Mechanical testing

The mechanical function and structure integrity of modified device were tested to demonstrate that the design specifications from design input are fulfilled and the design modifications do not affect safety and function of the device.

Functional testing

Device functionality was tested in the animal model to demonstrate that the intended use is fulfilled. Design modifications do not affect the function and intended use of device.

  1. Conclusion Based on the intended use, technological characteristics, comparison to the predicate device and performance testing, the modified device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and raises no different question of safety or effectiveness.
