The cannulae consist of a single-lumen wire-reinforced polymer body constructed and a distal tip. The distal tip is available in either a straight or curved shape with a collar or They are offered with or without a connector for attachment to the flange. cardiopulmonary bypass circuit.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the PureFlex Arterial Cannulae. It details the device's description, indications for use, technological characteristics, and non-clinical testing. However, it does not describe an AI medical device or a study involving an AI algorithm. Therefore, I cannot extract information related to acceptance criteria for an AI device, sample sizes for test or training sets, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, or standalone performance for an AI system.

The document focuses on the substantial equivalence of the PureFlex Arterial Cannulae to a predicate device (Aortic Arch Cannulae K162215) based on physical and performance characteristics, not on software or AI performance.

Below is the information regarding the medical device described in the document, based on the non-AI related testing performed.

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

The document does not specify sample sizes for the "in vitro testing" mentioned (Peak Tensile Force, Structural Integrity, etc.). It also does not explicitly state the provenance of data for these tests. It's safe to assume this data is collected during product development and testing activities by Sorin Group Italia, which is based in Italy.

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 information is not applicable as the device is a medical cannulae and the testing described is engineering/performance testing, not diagnostic or clinical interpretation by experts.

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

Not applicable for the type of device and testing described.

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

Not applicable as this is not an AI medical device.

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

Not applicable as this is not an AI medical device.

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

For the non-clinical testing, the "ground truth" refers to the established performance specifications and the requirements outlined in relevant standards such as ISO 10555-1 and ISO 10993-1. For biocompatibility, it's compliance with biological safety standards. For sterility, it's achieving the specified Sterility Assurance Level.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable as this is not an AI medical device.

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

Not applicable as this is not an AI medical device.

Dear Scott Light:

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. 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.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION:

The PureFlex Arterial Cannulae intended to be used to cannulate the arterial vessels during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.

The cannulae consist of a single-lumen wire-reinforced polymer body constructed and a distal tip. The distal tip is available in either a straight or curved shape with a collar or They are offered with or without a connector for attachment to the flange. cardiopulmonary bypass circuit.

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

The Arterial Cannulae are intended to be used as perfusion cannulae to return arterial blood from the extracorporeal circuit to the patient during cardiopulmonary surgery for periods of up to six hours.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:

As for the predicate Aortic Arch Cannulae, the PureFlex Arterial Cannulae consist of a soft flexible body with an encapsulated stainless steel spring for structural support. They are offered with either a straight or curved distal tip with either a collar or flange. The optional proximal connector is available with our without a vent port.

The PureFlex Cannulae and predicate Aortic Arch Cannulae have the same intended use, principles of operation and control mechanisms.

{4}------------------------------------------------

The PureFlex Arterial Cannulae and predicate Aortic Arch Cannulae are sterile, nonpyrogenic, single use devices. They are sterilized with ethylene oxide and have a sterility assurance level (SAL) of ≤10-6

The PureFlex Cannulae differs from the predicate Aortic Arch Cannulae as follows:

    1. Different materials were selected for the PureFlex for an improved appearance.
    1. The stainless steel spring encapsulated in the body of the PureFlex is shorter to provide a longer clamping area.
    1. The PureFlex Cannulae are offered in French sizes 18, 20, 22 and 24 (6 to 8mm) whereas the predicate Aortic Arch Cannulae are offered in French sizes ranging from 9 to 24 (3 to 8mm).
    1. The geometry of the PureFlex differs slightly from the predicate.

Since pressure and flow are dependent on the size and geometry of the cannulae, graphs are provided in the Instructions for Use.

Non Clinical Testing:

Biocompatibility testing was performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1 considering FDA's Guidance for Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a risk management process" issued June 16, 2016. The PureFlex cannulae are categorized as externally communicating, circulating blood, limited contact duration (<24hrs) devices.

IN VITRO TESTING:

Testing was conducted to verify compliance to the product's performance specifications and to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. The testing included relevant sections of ISO 10555-1 "Intravascular catheters - Sterile and singleuse catheters Part 1: General requirements".

The devices met the acceptance criteria for the following tests.

    1. Peak Tensile Force
    1. Structural Integrity
    1. Blood Trauma
    1. Kink Resistance
    1. Pressure Drop
    1. Leakage Under Pressure
    1. Shipping/Packaging

CONCLUSIONS:

The testing performed demonstrates the PureFlex cannulae are substantially equivalent to the predicate Aortic Arch Cannulae (K162215).
