2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document explicitly states:
- "Validation studies were conducted using a validation load consisting of one instrument tray for a total weight of 25 lbs (11.3 kg)" for the Non Lumen Cycle.
- "Validation testing for all lumen sizes was conducted using a maximum of eight (8) lumens per load... using a validation load consisting of one pouched instrument tray and two pouched devices outside of the tray with a total weight of 4.0 lbs (~1.8kg)" for the Fast Cycle.
- "Validation studies were conducted using a validation load consisting of two instrument trays. One tray contained one flexible endoscope... and the second tray contained additional load and twelve (12) stainless steel lumens for a total load weight of 11 lbs (5 kg)" for the Flexible Cycle.
- "Validation testing for all lumen sizes was conducted using a maximum of twelve (12) stainless steel lumens per load... using a validation load consisting of one instrument tray and two pouches for a total weight of 11 lbs (5.0 kg)" for the Lumen Cycle.
The specific number of individual sterilization cycles performed for these validation studies (e.g., number of replicates for the biological indicator and simulated use tests) is not explicitly stated in the provided text.
Data Provenance: The document implies these studies were conducted by STERIS Corporation, the manufacturer, in support of their 510(k) submission to the FDA. The nature of these tests (validation studies, half-cycle kill, simulated use) strongly suggests they are prospective, experimentally designed studies within a controlled environment. The country of origin for the data is not specified beyond the fact that the company is located in Mentor, Ohio, USA, and is submitting to the U.S. FDA.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
This is an electromechanical sterilization device, not an AI or imaging device that typically uses human experts for ground truth. The "ground truth" for sterilization devices is established by microbiological testing (biological indicators) and chemical indicators which show whether a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) has been met. These are objective, quantitative measures of microbial inactivation.
Therefore, the concept of "experts" to establish ground truth in the traditional sense (e.g., radiologists for image interpretation) does not apply here. The "experts" would be the microbiologists and engineers who design, execute, and interpret the standardized sterilization test methods.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable in the context of an AI device requiring consensus from multiple readers. For sterilization devices, the results of biological indicator and chemical indicator tests (e.g., growth/no growth, color change) are objective and typically do not require adjudication.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
Not applicable. This is a sterilization device, not an AI diagnostic tool. No human readers or AI assistance in a diagnostic context are involved.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study
Not applicable. This is a physical sterilization system, not an algorithm. The device performance itself is the "standalone" performance in its intended function.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth used is based on biological indicators (BIs) and simulated use testing.
- Biological Indicators: Viable spores of a highly resistant microorganism (e.g., Geobacillus stearothermophilus) are placed in challenging locations within the device or test load. After the sterilization cycle, these BIs are cultured. No growth indicates successful sterilization to a defined Sterility Assurance Level (SAL).
- Simulated Use Testing: Involves placing inoculated test devices (with the resistant microorganism) into the sterilizer and running the cycle to verify sterilization effectiveness under conditions simulating actual use.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This is a physical device, not a machine learning model that requires a training set. The "design" and "development" of such a system would involve engineering principles and iterative testing, not algorithmic training on a dataset.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, as there is no training set for a device of this type.

STERIS Corporation Special Premarket Notification [510(k)] Modifications to V-PRO® s2 and V-PRO® 60 Low Temperature Sterilization Systems
The proposed device is identical to the predicate except for modification to the indications for use to allow sterilization of single and dual lumen stainless steel lumened devices with the following dimensions: ≥ 1.8 mm ID x ≤ 542 mm length in the Lumen, flexible and fast cycles. Note that with the addition of the 1.8mm x 542 mm stainless steel lumen claim, the previous claim (2mm ID x 400mm length) that falls within the new claim has been removed from the Flexible Cycle.
The Reference Devices, V-PRO® 1, V-PRO® 1 Plus, V-PRO® maX and V-PRO® maX 2 Low Temperature Sterilization Systems are 136 L chamber sterilizers. They have the same technological characteristics, mechanism of action and intended use as the proposed devices were cleared in K190103 for the same modification to the indications for use described in this submission.
