The feeding tube is indicated for use in percutaneous placement of an enteral feeding tube in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication or decompression through an established gastrointestinal stoma tract.
The Entuit LP Patient Care Kit is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication administration or decompression through an Entuit LP Gastrostomy BR Balloon Retention Feeding Tube.
The Entuit LP Patient Care Kit with ENFit Connection is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication administration or decompression through an Entuit LP Gastrostomy BR Low Profile Balloon Retention Feeding Tube.
The feeding tube is indicated for use in percutaneous placement of an enteral feeding tube in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication, or decompression through an established gastrointestinal stoma tract.
The PromaX LP Patient Care Kit with ENFit is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication administration, or decompression through a PromaX Low Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tube.
The proposed low profile devices are constructed primarily of silicone and consists of a hub which is overmolded on to a previously extruded bi-lumen shaft. At the distal end, a silicone balloon is bonded to the shaft using a silicone RTV. The tip of the shaft is filled with radiopaque barium RTV. The hub has two ports. The top (center) port contains a reflux valve assembly which is keyed to accept the extension set connectors. Leaks are prevented by the reflux valve assembly (with cross-slit valve design). The second port is the inflation port and contains the inflation valve.
In use, the balloon end of the catheter is inserted through a gastrointestinal stoma tract and into the stomach. The balloon is then inflated with sterile or distilled water (per the recommended volume for the specific device size) to secure the device in place. To confirm placement of the device in the stomach, fluoroscopic procedures are typically used since the catheter shaft tip has radiopaque barium stripe present.
Accessories for the proposed devices include two extension set configurations (bolus and continuous, each available in both ENFit-compatible version and non-ENFit compatible version due to ENFit market transition status), an inflation syringe, a feeding syringe (similarly available in both ENFit compatible and non-ENFit compatible versions), gauzes, and a stoma measuring device (for the Entuit offering) to facilitate device placement and use.
This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence of new medical devices to legally marketed predicate devices. As such, it does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving device meets acceptance criteria for an AI/ML powered medical device. The document pertains to physical medical devices (gastrostomy feeding tubes and kits).
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the given text.
The typical structure for a 510(k) submission for a physical device like a feeding tube involves demonstrating:
- Substantial equivalence to a predicate device already on the market.
- Performance testing (bench testing, e.g., tensile strength, leak testing, biocompatibility, sterilization validation) to show the device meets specifications and is safe and effective for its intended use.
- Clinical tests (if applicable): Often not required for Class II devices like these if bench data and substantial equivalence is strong.
The document you provided outlines exactly this:
- It identifies predicate and reference devices (Section 5.3, 5.4).
- It describes the proposed devices and their technological characteristics, comparing them to the predicate (Section 5.5, 5.7, 5.7a).
- It lists non-clinical tests performed (biocompatibility, sterilization, performance bench testing like tensile, leak, connector strength, dimensional testing per ISO standards, pinch clamp testing, and resistance to chemical exposure) (Section 5.8.1).
- It explicitly states that animal and clinical tests were not required (Section 5.8.2, 5.8.3), which is common for devices demonstrating substantial equivalence through robust bench testing.
Essentially, for these types of physical devices, the "acceptance criteria" are the specifications and performance standards met during the non-clinical bench testing, and the "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" refers to the results of these bench tests demonstrating compliance with the standards and equivalence to the predicate. There is no AI/ML component described, so terms like "test set," "training set," "ground truth," "expert consensus," "MRMC study," or "standalone algorithm performance" are not applicable.

Dear Steve Murray:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. However, you are responsible to determine that the medical devices you use as components in the kit have either been determined as substantially equivalent under the premarket notification process (Section 510(k) of the act), or were legally on the market prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments. Please note: If you purchase your device components in bulk (i.e., unfinished) and further process (e.g., sterilize) you must submit a new 510(k) before including these components in your kit/tray. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

Table 5.5-1 - Proposed Devices
The Low Profile Gastrostomy Tube Family will be comprised of two different brands of low profile gastrostomy tube kits - the Entuit Low Profile Kits (ENFit and Legacy versions) and the PromaX Low Profile Kit (ENFit), There are several minor design differences between the Entuit and PromaX offerings, including: hub strap width, extension set valve connector stem height, ENFit connector grip surface, length of ENFit feeding and Y-port stem on continuous extension set, and cap/tether configuration of the extension set for PromaX.
The proposed low profile devices are constructed primarily of silicone and consists of a hub which is overmolded on to a previously extruded bi-lumen shaft. At the distal end, a silicone balloon is bonded to the shaft using a silicone RTV. The tip of the shaft is filled
{9}------------------------------------------------
with radiopaque barium RTV. The hub has two ports. The top (center) port contains a reflux valve assembly which is keyed to accept the extension set connectors. Leaks are prevented by the reflux valve assembly (with cross-slit valve design). The second port is the inflation port and contains the inflation valve.
In use, the balloon end of the catheter is inserted through a gastrointestinal stoma tract and into the stomach. The balloon is then inflated with sterile or distilled water (per the recommended volume for the specific device size) to secure the device in place. To confirm placement of the device in the stomach, fluoroscopic procedures are typically used since the catheter shaft tip has radiopaque barium stripe present.
Accessories for the proposed devices include two extension set configurations (bolus and continuous, each available in both ENFit-compatible version and non-ENFit compatible version due to ENFit market transition status), an inflation syringe, a feeding syringe (similarly available in both ENFit compatible and non-ENFit compatible versions), gauzes, and a stoma measuring device (for the Entuit offering) to facilitate device placement and use.
The proposed low profile devices are available in the configurations shown below in Table 5.5-2.

Table 5.5-2 – LP G-Tube Configurations (Length [cm] for Each FR Size)
The extension sets have a valve connector end that inserts into the LP G-Tube reflux valve. For ENFit Extension Sets, the opposite end has an ENFit-compatible connector complying with ISO 80369-3 (for prevention of misconnections with non-enteral feeding devices). The extension set can then connect to any ENFit-compatible enteral giving sets or ENFit-compatible syringes. For Legacy Extension Sets (for the Entuit offering), the opposite end has a connector that can accept connection from non-ENFit catheter tip syringes and giving sets.
The ISO 80369-3 standard for enteral feeding ENFit connections was released in its final form on July 1, 2016. Progression of healthcare facilities adopting enteral devices with ENFit connectors has been slow as reported by industry organizations such as GEDSA and ECRI. As a result, both ENFit Extension Sets and Legacy Extension Sets are being made available to meet short-term patient needs.
{10}------------------------------------------------
The PromaX Low Profile Kits will only be offered in an ENFit version, targeted at the long term full market transition to ENFit connections.

As can be seen from the above table, the changes are limited in scope and many characteristics are unchanged from the predicate device. The limited differences are as follows:
- The indications for use, while slightly changed in wording, does specify the same o intended use and therefore does support substantial equivalence;
- The balloon inflation volume rating change from a fixed value to a range does not change functionality nor use of the device but only provides flexibility in meeting individual patient needs for device retention;
- . The new reflux valve design (cross-slit) performs the same function as the predicate device's reflux valve and is shown to be equivalent or better based on performance testing, including creating an effective seal to the extension set valve connector;
- The inflation valve port has a minor dimensional change for improved manufacturability:
- . The extension connectors similarly perform the same function as those of the predicate but incorporates a material change for improved strength of the valve connector and ISO 80369-3 (ENFit) compliance for the feeding connector (latter for the ENFit version only on both Entuit and PromaX);
- . The new pinch clamp for the Continuous Extension Set performs the same function as the predicate but enables improved pinch clamp performance;
- Certain warning information is simply transferred from a warning tag to printing ● on the extension set pinch clamp itself;
- o Entuit legacy Continuous Extension Set has an added medication port adapter cap (instructions provided in related IFU);
- o In addition. PromaX valve connector has minor aesthetic differences (compared to Entuit) for market differentiation, including a slightly shorter stem.
Any differences noted above do not raise new or different questions of safety or effectiveness as compared to the predicate device. The proposed devices are deemed substantially equivalent.
