Curbell patient cables are used to connect electrodes and/or sensors placed at the appropriate sites on the patient to a monitoring device for general monitoring and/or diagnostic evaluation by a healthcare professional.
Curbell Patient Monitoring Cables comprise cables and lead wires that connect from sensors and/or electrodes to a monitor for the purpose of conducting ECG diagnosis, monitoring, and SPO2 monitoring. As per 21CFR801.109, this device is a prescription device.
The provided text describes the regulatory clearance of "Curbell Patient Monitoring Cables" (K182220) and outlines the product's characteristics, intended use, and substantial equivalence to predicate devices. However, the text does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets specific performance criteria in the format requested.
The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through comparisons of intended use, technological characteristics, and compliance with recognized standards for biocompatibility, electrical performance, and electrical safety. It lists the standards that the device has been assessed against (e.g., ANSI/AAMI EC53:2013, IEC 60601-1:2005) and the types of tests performed (e.g., cable and lead wire noise, flex life, tensile strength, connector retention force, contact resistance, dielectric withstand voltage).
The submission is a 510(k) premarket notification, which is a regulatory pathway to demonstrate that a device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate device. This process typically relies on comparing the new device to existing ones rather than presenting novel clinical performance data or statistically robust performance studies with detailed acceptance criteria and ground truth establishment as outlined in your request.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information in the specified format because it is not present in the provided text.
Here's an explanation of why each point of your request cannot be fulfilled based on the given document:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: While the document lists standards (e.g., ANSI/AAMI EC53:2013) that the device was assessed against, it does not provide specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., "noise must be less than X dB") nor the actual measured performance values of the Curbell Patient Monitoring Cables. It only states that the device "have been assessed to" these standards and that engineering verification and validation protocols have been used.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: The document mentions "Engineering Verification and Validation Protocols" and "Inspection Report" but does not specify the sample sizes used for testing nor the provenance of any data.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: This information is not applicable and not provided for a device like patient monitoring cables. Ground truth relevant to expert opinion is typically associated with diagnostic or prognostic devices where clinical interpretation is paramount. For cables, performance is primarily assessed against engineering and safety standards.
-
Adjudication method for the test set: This is not applicable and not provided for the same reasons as point 3.
-
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 patient monitoring cables, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: This is not applicable. The device is patient monitoring cables, not an algorithm.
-
The type of ground truth used: For a device like patient monitoring cables, the "ground truth" is defined by compliance with established engineering and safety standards (e.g., electrical safety, biocompatibility, mechanical integrity like flex life and tensile strength). The document indicates assessment against these standards (IEC 60601-1, ANSI/AAMI EC53, ISO 10993). However, it does not explicitly detail how the "ground truth" for each specific test parameter was established beyond referencing these standards.
-
The sample size for the training set: This is not applicable as the device is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established: This is not applicable as the device is not an AI/ML algorithm.

Trade/Device Name: Curbell Patient Monitoring Cables Regulation Number: 21 CFR 870.2900 Regulation Name: Patient Transducer And Electrode Cable (Including Connector) Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: DSA Dated: August 10, 2018 Received: October 16, 2018
Dear Michael Winter:
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. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part
{1}------------------------------------------------
801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
