Intended Use

The ESOTEST MULTI Temperature Monitoring System is composed of ESOTEST MULTI Monitor and ESOTEST MULTI Probe and is intended for the continuous detection, measurement and visualization (in °C) of esophageal temperature. The intended environments of use are operating rooms and interventional electrophysiology rooms.

The ESOTEST MULTI Monitor must be used in conjunction with the ESOTEST MULTI Probe.

Device Description

The ESOTEST MULTI Temperature Monitoring System is composed of the following device components:

  • Monitor ESOTEST MULTI MONITOR
  • Esophageal probe ESOTEST MULTI PROBE
  • Patient cable ESOTEST MULTI PATIENT CABLE

The LCD display of ESOTEST MULTI monitor shows the temperatures detected by the thermocouple sensors located in the probe, which is measuring the temperature of the patient's esophagus. Temperatures are displayed as numeric values and as scrolling plots. The user is able to set the value of an upper alarm threshold and that of a lower alarm threshold. If any measured temperature exceeds the upper alarm threshold or falls below the lower alarm threshold, ESOTEST MULTI monitor immediately emits visual and audible alarm signals.

The ESOTEST MULTI esophageal probe has a 7 French body equipped with 11 French sensors and is intended for the detection of esophageal temperature at multiple locations. The probe is connected to the monitor by ESOTEST MULTI patient cable.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the regulatory clearance of a medical device, the ESOTEST MULTI Esophageal Temperature Probe and Temperature Monitoring System, and details the non-clinical testing performed to demonstrate its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This is not an AI/ML powered device, therefore the information requested about the number of experts used to establish ground truth, the adjudication method, MRMC studies, or training set details are not applicable as these pertain to performance studies of AI/ML algorithms.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided document:

Study Details

The studies performed are non-clinical bench and lab tests, not clinical studies involving human subjects or AI/ML algorithm evaluation.

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

    • The document does not specify exact sample sizes for each non-clinical test (e.g., how many probes were tested for accuracy, or how many sterilization cycles were validated).
    • The data provenance is from non-clinical laboratory testing performed by the manufacturer, Fiab SpA, in Italy. The tests are retrospective in the sense that they were completed prior to the 510(k) submission.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • This question is not applicable as the device is a direct measurement medical thermometer, not an AI/ML algorithm requiring expert interpretation of complex data for ground truth establishment. Ground truth for the device's accuracy and performance parameters (e.g., temperature values, alarm functionality) is established by calibration against known standards and physical measurements.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • This question is not applicable as it pertains to the resolution of discrepancies in expert interpretations, typically for AI/ML performance studies, which is not relevant for this device.
  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:

    • This is not applicable. The device is an esophageal temperature monitoring system, not an imaging device or an AI-assisted diagnostic tool where human readers would be involved in interpreting data with or without AI assistance.
  5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • This is not applicable as there is no AI/ML algorithm in this device. The device performs direct physical measurements.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    • For temperature accuracy, the ground truth is established by calibrated reference standards (e.g., precision temperature baths and reference thermometers) that meet the requirements of relevant international standards (e.g., ISO 80601-2-56).
    • For other aspects like electrical safety, EMC, sterilization, and biocompatibility, the "ground truth" is compliance with the specific requirements and test methods outlined in the cited international standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1, ISO 11135-1, ISO 10993-1).
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • This is not applicable as there is no AI/ML algorithm requiring a training set for this device.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • This is not applicable as there is no AI/ML algorithm requiring a training set for this device.

Substantial Equivalence Discussion

The ESOTEST MULTI Temperature Monitoring System is intended for the same use as the predicate device. The differences between the ESOTEST MULTI Temperature Monitoring System and the predicate device are listed and discussed in the table below:.

DifferenceImpact on safety and effectiveness
ESOTEST MULTI makes use of an external power supply (included in the package of ESOTESTThe adoption of a medical grade external power supply and of a custom locking connector does not introduce new
DifferenceImpact on safety and effectiveness
MULTI monitor)questions of safety and effectiveness. It has been verified bytesting the power supply system together with the deviceaccording to the requirements of the applicable ElectricalSafety standards,
ESOTEST MULTI has a larger measurement rangeThe larger measurement range does not introduce newquestions of safety and effectiveness. It has been verifiedthough performance accuracy testing.
ESOTEST MULTI probe has 5 to 7 sensors insteadof 3 as the probe of the predicate deviceThe greater number of sensors allows the device to monitora longer portion of esophagus temperature and does notintroduce new questions of safety and effectiveness. Theprobes were verified through performance testing.
ESOTEST MULTI makes use of a touch screenuser interface instead of employing LED displaysand physical buttons as the predicate deviceThe adoption of an LCD display with adequate size andbrightness, along with the capacitive touch screen. Thisdoes not introduce new questions of safety andeffectiveness.
ESOTEST MULTI has a lower alarm threshold inaddition to the upper alarm threshold of thepredicate deviceThe presence of a second alarm threshold allows the user toemploy the alarm both during heating and coolingtreatments. This does not introduce new questions of safetyand effectiveness. The alarm thresholds were validatedthrough performance testing and the software wasverified/validated.
ESOTEST MULTI can tolerate a slightly largermains supply voltage rangeThis does not introduce new questions of safety andeffectiveness. It has been verified by testing the device inthe mains supply rated voltage range, according torequirements of applicable Electrical Safety standards
The main unit of ESOTEST MULTI is smaller andlighter and the interconnection cables are longerthan the corresponding components of the predicatedeviceThe fact that the main unit is smaller and lighter does notintroduce new questions of safety and effectiveness.
ESOTEST MULTI measures and displays thetemperature detected by 5 to 7 sensors instead of 3as the predicate deviceThe LCD display of the greater number of sensors does notintroduce new questions of safety and effectiveness.

l Response time is defined as the mean value of the measured time intervals associated to temperature increase (tr) or to temperature decrease (tf) necessary to cover the 63.3% of the total temperature excursion.
