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

  • Test Set Sample Size:
    • For the Usability Study: 78 subjects.
    • For the Technical/Safety Bench Testing (Electrical safety, EMC, Software V&V, Biocompatibility): No specific sample size of "test subjects" is mentioned, as these are lab-based evaluations of the device itself (e.g., material samples for biocompatibility, the device unit for electrical tests).
  • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the usability study participants. Given the company's location (Shenzhen, China) and the correspondent's location (Guangzhou, China), it is highly probable the usability study was conducted in China. The study appears to be prospective for the usability testing as it involved new subjects interacting with the device.

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

  • Usability Study: The document does not specify the number or qualifications of "experts" used to establish ground truth. Usability studies primarily focus on lay-user performance and comprehension rather than expert-established clinical ground truth. The "ground truth" here is whether the average user can successfully and safely use the device and understand its instructions, as evaluated by direct observation and feedback from the 78 subjects.
  • For the technical tests (electrical safety, EMC, software V&V, biocompatibility), compliance is measured against established international standards and FDA guidance, meaning the "ground truth" is adherence to these predefined criteria, verified by qualified testing laboratories.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Usability Study: The document does not describe a formal adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1). Usability studies typically involve observing participants, analyzing their actions, and reviewing their responses to questions to determine if performance objectives are met. Discrepancies might be resolved through internal review by the study team, but no specific external adjudication process is mentioned.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was mentioned or performed. This device is an over-the-counter hair removal device. Clinical efficacy studies for such devices typically focus on hair reduction percentages rather than human reader interpretation of images. Human readers are not involved in the direct output or application of this device.

6. Standalone Performance Study

  • Yes, a standalone study was done in the form of the usability study and the bench testing.
    • The usability study (78 subjects) evaluates the device's performance when used by lay users, which is the "algorithm only" equivalent for a consumer-facing device where the "algorithm" is the user interface, instructions, and intended operation.
    • The bench testing (electrical safety, EMC, software V&V, biocompatibility) evaluates the device's physical and technical characteristics in a standalone manner against predefined standards.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Usability Study: The ground truth was based on lay user performance observation and comprehension metrics against predefined usability goals (e.g., successful self-selection, correct application, understanding labeling).
  • Technical Bench Testing: The ground truth was based on compliance with established international standards (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-57, ISO10993-5, ISO10993-10) and FDA guidance ("Guidance for PreMarket Submissions and for Software Contained in Medical Devices").

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not Applicable. This document describes a 510(k) submission for a physical medical device (an IPL hair removal device), not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a "training set." The software mentioned refers to internal device control, not a learning algorithm that would be "trained" on data.

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

  • Not Applicable. As explained above, there is no mention or implication of a "training set" for an AI/ML algorithm in this submission.

Comparison in Detail(s):

Note 1:

"Power Source(s)", "Weight", "Dimensions" is belong to basic characteristics. Although it is a little different from the predicate devices, it will not affect the main function and the intended use of the device. They all also comply with IEC 60601-1 requirements. So the differences will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

Note 2:

Although the Max. Fluence of subject device is a little larger than the one of the predicate device II, but comparing to Predicate device II, the energy density of subject device is less than 10 Joules/cm². And they all comply with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-57 requirement.

So the differences of function specification will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

Note 3:

Although the wavelength of subject device is a little different from the predicate devices, but they all comply with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-57 requirement.

And the wavelength of subject device is in the range of the one of predicted devices "PerfectSmooth"

So the differences of function specification will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

{10}------------------------------------------------

Note 4:

There are three types of "Spot Size (cm2)" of subject device, and there is minor difference between the subject device and the predicate device I, but in predicate device II, there is similar spot size to the size of bikini area /face lamp cartridge in subject device. And they all comply with IEC 60601-1.IEC60601-2-57 requirement.

So the differences of Spot size will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

Note 5:

For IPL light, the energy spectrum is Continuous wavelength range. So even there is minor value difference on the energy spectrum between subject device and predicate devices, but the total energy output density (Max. Fluence value) is similar; and they comply with IEC60601-2-57 Requirement. So the differences of energy spectrum will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

And for facial lamp cartridge and bikini lamp cartridge, even the max output energy is lower than the data of predicate devices of K161428/K160968 due to the difference of spot size, but the total energy output density (Max. Fluence value) is similar; and the maximum output energy density of subject device for facial lamp cartridge is about 3.52 J/cm2; and 3.61 J/cm2 for bikini lamp cartridge. Comparing with the predicate device of K 160968, the value range of energy density of predicate device of K160968 is 3-6 J/cm2, which can cover the maximum output energy density of subject device for facial lamp cartridge and bikini lamp cartridge. The phototherapy effectiveness is crucially related to the output energy density and wavelength parameters for IPL, and the output energy of one pulse is minor different to predicate devices because of its spot window size. The spot size of device only affect the treatment target skin area per each pulse flashing, it do not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

So the differences of output energy for facial lamp cartridge and bikini lamp cartridge will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

Finial Conclusion:

The subject device " IPL Hair Removal Device Joy Version, Model: CB-027" is substantial Equivalence to all predicate devices.
