Specific indications:

  • transcervical diagnosis and treatment (resection, vaporization, ablation, biopsy, cutting and coagulation) of intrauterine myomas, intrauterine polyps, synechias and endometrium (TCRis)
  • lysis of intrauterine septa -
  • endometrial ablation -
Device Description

The subject HF-Resection Electrodes consist of an active tip, PTFE color code identification, an insulator between the electrode and electrode tube, a guiding tube, telescope clip and arm (shaft). The accompanying HF cables consist of two lantern plugs on the instrument side and one generator plug on the generator side.

The design and dimensions of the electrodes vary to accommodate various procedural conditions. The active tips of the various electrodes may consist of loops, bands, rollers, needles or buttons. The electrodes have a shaft diameter of 24 Fr. range in length from 261.8-336.7mm, and range in compatibility with telescopes with a direction of view of 12° - 30°. The design of the HF cable plugs vary depending on which electrosurgical generator they are compatible with.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for Olympus Winter & Ibe GmbH's Resection Electrodes with HF cable (K171965). This is a premarket notification to the FDA to demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device, not necessarily to prove its absolute safety and effectiveness through a standalone clinical study involving acceptance criteria as typically understood for new major medical devices or AI algorithms.

Therefore, the acceptance criteria and study information typically requested for AI/ML performance are not present in this type of submission. This device is an accessory to electrosurgical units, and its substantial equivalence is primarily demonstrated through comparisons to predicate devices in terms of design, materials, indications for use, and adherence to recognized electrical safety and sterilization standards.

Here's how to interpret the available information against your request:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

This document does not present "acceptance criteria" for device performance in the typical sense of a clinical outcome or diagnostic accuracy. Instead, it relies on demonstrating compliance with recognized standards and equivalence to a predicate device. The "reported device performance" refers to its ability to meet these standards and exhibit similar characteristics to the predicate.

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Electrical SafetyComplies with AAMI/ANSI ES 60601-1:2005 + A1:2012, C1:2009 and A2:2010; AAMI/ANSI/IEC 60601-2-2:2009; IEC 60601-2-18:2009
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)Not applicable, as the device doesn't contain electrical components that can be influenced by electromagnetic emission or electrostatic discharge.
SterilizationComplies with ISO 11135, achieving a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10^-6 for EtO sterilization. EtO residuals are within limits.
Shelf LifeValidated for 3 years, including package integrity testing in accordance with ISO 11607-1:2006.
BiocompatibilityPatient-contacting materials are identical to the predicate (K152092) and previously successfully tested for biocompatibility.
Substantial Equivalence to PredicateDesign, manufacturing, materials, and technological principles are similar to or identical to the predicate device (K152092), with minor differences not negatively impacting safety or effectiveness.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

This information is not applicable and therefore not provided in the 510(k) summary. The submission focuses on engineering and bench testing, not clinical performance data that would involve a "test set" in the context of AI/ML or clinical trials. The performance data relies on testing previously reviewed and deemed acceptable in K152092.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This is not applicable to the type of device and submission. There is no "ground truth" to be established by clinical experts for the electrical safety, sterilization, or shelf-life testing of these electrodes.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This is not applicable for the reasons stated above.

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 is not applicable. This is a medical device accessory, not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive tool.

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

This is not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

For the technical aspects (electrical safety, sterilization, shelf life), the "ground truth" is adherence to established international and national standards (e.g., ISO, AAMI/ANSI IEC standards) and validated engineering test results. For substantial equivalence, the "ground truth" is the previously cleared predicate device (K152092) and its established safety and effectiveness.

8. The sample size for the training set

This is not applicable. There is no software algorithm or AI model being trained for this device.

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

This is not applicable.

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

Electrodes with HF-cable are part of a resectoscope system for endoscopic diagnosis and treatment in gynecological applications.

The general indications include transcervical resection, vaporization, ablation, cutting and coagulation of tissue in the uterus in conductive irrigation fluid as part of a resectoscope system.

Specific indications:

  • transcervical diagnosis and treatment (resection, vaporization, ablation, biopsy, cutting and coagulation) of intrauterine myomas, intrauterine polyps, synechias and endometrium (TCRis)
  • lysis of intrauterine septa -
  • endometrial ablation -

Although the subject and predicate devices have different indications for use statements, the intended use is the same. The subject device is indicated for gynecologic applications while the predicate device is indicated for urological indications. However, when the decision-making criteria specified in the FDA guidance document, "General/Specific Intended Use," (issued November 4, 1998) are applied, the subject device indications are determined to fall within the scope of the intended use of the predicate device. The specific gynecology indications of the subject device do not represent a different intended use since there is an extensive knowledge base regarding the use of bipolar electrosurgery for gynecological applications, including the disease states listed in the specific gynecologic indications. Therefore, the intended use comparison supports substantial equivalence.

6. Comparison of Technological characteristics

At a high level. the subject and predicate devices are based on the same technological principle with the same elements:

  • I Resection electrodes consisting of an active (distal) tip, PTFE color code identification at the distal and proximal ends, an insulator between the electrode and electrode tube, a stabilizing (guiding) tube, and arm (shaft)
  • . HF cables consisting of two lantern plugs on the instrument side and one generator plug on the generator side
  • I Used in combination with a resectoscope system
  • 트 Like the predicate electrodes, the subject device resection electrode series features loops, bands, needles, rollers, and a button as active tip shapes
  • . Resection electrodes utilizing ablation or for resection in saline (dependent on model)
  • I Respectively identical or similar outer dimensions

{8}------------------------------------------------

K171965 Page 5 of 6

  • Design changes of the electrodes and cables are minor and do not negatively impact safety or effectiveness of the subject devices
  • I The same or similar materials in patient contact are used in predicate and subject device and have all been successfully tested for biocompatibility.

As stated above, the subject and predicate devices have similar design characteristics and performance specifications, with the exception of the addition of the HF cables. These minor differences, however, do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. As demonstrated in the non-clinical testing (e.g., electrical safety, sterilization validation, and package integrity), the different technological characteristics do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject devices.

7. Performance Data

The subject device electrodes, including all patient-contacting materials, are identical in design and manufacturing to the predicate device (K152092). Therefore, the current submission relies on performance testing previously reviewed and deemed acceptable in K152092.

8. Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

Electrical Safety was tested according to

AAMI/ANSI ES 60601-1:2005 + A1:2012, C1:2009and A2:2010Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1.1 Generalrequirements for safety and essential performance.
AAMI/ANSI/IEC 60601-2-22009Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 2-2: ParticularRequirements for the Basic Safety And EssentialPerformance of High Frequency Surgical Equipmentand High Frequency Surgical Accessories
IEC 60601-2-18:2009Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-18: MedicalElectrical Equipment - Part 2-18: Particularrequirements for the basic safety and essentialperformance of endoscopic equipment.

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing according to IEC 60601-1-2 and IEC 60601-2-2 is not applicable to the Resection Electrodes. They do not contain any electrical components that can be influenced by electromagnetic emission as well as electrostatic discharge. From an electromagnetic compatibility point of view, it is a metal bar that cannot be influenced at any time.

{9}------------------------------------------------

9. Sterilization and Shelf Life

Sterilization is performed according to ISO 11135 and packaging conforms with AAMI ANSI ISO 11607-1:2006. The EtO sterilization cycle has been validated.

A sterility assurance level (SAL) of 106 was reached during validation and will be used for routine sterilization in compliance with regulations in force for sterile medical devices.

The EtO residuals are within the limits after tunnel degassing time.

Shelf Life testing, including package integrity testing in accordance with ISO 11607-1:2006, was conducted to support a shelf life of 3 years for the resection electrodes.

10. Conclusion

The performance data support the safety and effectiveness of the subject device and demonstrate that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

In conclusion, the Resection Electrodes with HF cable are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
