Intended Use

INTENDED USE:

The AMSure® Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter is inserted into the patient's bladder and indicated for intermittent use for the purpose of drainage of urine from the bladder. The catheter does not contain a balloon on its tip. An optional Water sachet is included to activate the hydrophilic-coated surface prior to use. The target populations for the subject device are Adults and Pediatrics.

Device Description

The AMSure® Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter is a urethral catheter intended to be passed through the urethra during urinary catheterization and into the bladder to drain urine. It is hydrophilic and lubricous coated flexible tube owns a hydrophilic polymer in the surface which makes the catheter highly lubricious and good adhesion upon contact with water, saline solution, body fluids. The catheter and gripper is manufactured with medical grade PVC, the surface is coated with a hydrophilic lowfriction coating (polyvinyl pyrrolidone, or PVP), the water sachet is with USP grade sterile water. Each catheter is provided in sterile, single-use packages, intended to be used by adults and pediatrics.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the AMSure® Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter. This document details the regulatory pathway for a medical device and typically does not include the specifics of a standalone algorithm study, MRMC comparative effectiveness study, or details like the number and qualifications of experts for ground truth establishment, which are more common for AI/ML-based device submissions.

Based on the provided text, here's a summary of the requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document lists "Test items" under "Performance Testing" which serve as the acceptance criteria for the device. The reported performance is that these tests were conducted and demonstrate the device's substantial equivalence. Specific quantitative performance metrics (e.g., specific friction values, flow rates, or strength measurements) that would constitute "acceptance criteria" are not reported in this summary, only the tests 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 the sample size used for performance testing (test set) for any of the listed items (e.g., number of catheters tested for leakage, kink resistance, etc.). The data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is also not mentioned.

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 and is not provided in the document. The device is a physical urological catheter, not an AI/ML diagnostic device requiring expert interpretation for ground truth.

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

This information is not applicable and is not provided in the document, as it relates to expert review for diagnostic devices, not performance testing of a physical medical device.

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

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was performed or mentioned. This type of study is relevant for AI-powered diagnostic devices, which this catheter is not.

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

A standalone algorithm performance study was not performed. The device is a physical medical device (catheter) and does not involve an algorithm.

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

The "ground truth" for the performance tests would be based on the established standards for each physical and chemical test (e.g., passing a specific leakage pressure, meeting a defined friction value, demonstrating sterility). For biocompatibility, the ground truth is generally adherence to ISO 10993 standards and the absence of adverse biological reactions. It's not a diagnostic "ground truth" in the AI/ML sense.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not applicable. The device is a physical catheter, not an AI/ML model that requires a training set.

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

This information is not applicable. The device is a physical catheter and does not involve a training set.

Dear Zoe Wu:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
