2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size for Test Set: The document does not specify a distinct "test set" sample size for all studies. However, for the "Precision - Multi-Site with Clinical Specimens" and "Precision - Operator and Instrument Variability" studies, typical clinical specimens (both normal and abnormal) were used. The specific number of specimens for each study is not explicitly stated in the provided text.
  • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin. The "Clinical Accuracy" study mentions "the site's clinical diagnosis," indicating that the data likely came from clinical sites where the study was conducted. The studies appear to be prospective in nature, as they involve actively verifying performance, stability, and equivalency.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

  • For the "Clinical Accuracy" study, the comparison was made against "the site's clinical diagnosis of malignant or non-malignant outcome from the current standard of care." The interpretation of results for the device itself is stated to "be confirmed by a pathologist or equivalent professional in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings" (page 2). This indicates that pathologists or equivalent professionals establish the ground truth for clinical cases. The number of such experts is not specified.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • The document implies that the ground truth for "Clinical Accuracy" is established by "the site's clinical diagnosis...from the current standard of care" and confirmed by a "pathologist or equivalent professional." However, it does not explicitly describe an adjudication method (such as 2+1, 3+1, or none) for resolving discrepancies among multiple expert opinions on a specific case.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • The provided text does not describe a multi-reader, multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study involving human readers with and without AI assistance (which is not relevant for this device as it's a diagnostic reagent and flow cytometer system, not an AI interpretative software for human review).

6. Standalone Performance Study

  • The studies described, particularly those evaluating laser performance, instrument linearity, carryover, and reagent characteristics, are inherently standalone (algorithm/system only) performance studies. The system is evaluated on its ability to accurately detect and characterize cell populations. The "Clinical Accuracy" study also assesses the device's ability to identify abnormal populations against clinical outcomes, which is a standalone evaluation of its diagnostic capability.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • For various analytical studies (e.g., linearity, carryover, precision), the ground truth is established by reference standards, control materials, and comparative methods (e.g., predicate devices).
  • For the "Clinical Accuracy" study, the ground truth is based on clinical diagnosis of malignant or non-malignant outcome from the current standard of care, confirmed by pathologist or equivalent professional consensus in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • The document does not explicitly mention a "training set" as the devices described are diagnostic reagents and flow cytometers, not AI models that require specific training data in the context of machine learning. The studies listed are for performance verification and validation.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • As there is no explicit mention of a "training set" in the context of an AI/machine learning model, this information is not applicable and is not provided in the document.
