AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the Silverlon® Wound Contact, Burn Contact Dressings. It describes the device, its indications for use, and a nonclinical (animal) study conducted to support an expanded indication.

Here's an analysis of the provided information, focusing on acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

The document describes a non-inferiority study performed on Gottingen minipigs. The acceptance criteria are based on a "non-inferiority margin" for a "histopathology composite score."

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Non-Inferiority Margin: 1.5 points (or 10% of maximum possible score of 15) for the total histopathology composite score. The subject device is considered non-inferior if its score is not substantially worse than the standard of care.Moderate Partial Thickness (DD) Injuries: Mean composite histopathology score for the subject device was 0.36 points higher than standard of care.
Superficial Partial Thickness (SD) Injuries: Mean composite histopathology score for the subject device was 0.01 points higher than standard of care.
Conclusion:The study demonstrated that the Silverlon Wound Contact, Burn Contact Dressing is non-inferior to standard of care for both moderate and superficial partial thickness mustard-induced vesicant injuries. For DD injuries, this was demonstrated when changed every 7 days, and for SD injuries, when changed every 4 days.

Explanation of Performance:
Since a higher histopathology score is implicitly better (as the device score was higher than the standard of care and still met non-inferiority), the device performed as well as or slightly better than the standard of care, falling within the pre-defined non-inferiority margin.


Study Details

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

  • Sample Size: 165 Gottingen minipigs.
  • Data Provenance: Nonclinical study, animal data (Gottingen minipigs). The study was a GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) nonclinical study.

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):

The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth (histopathology scores). It only mentions that the primary endpoint was the "histopathology composite score." Typically, a pathologist would be responsible for such assessments, but no details are provided here.

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

The document does not describe any expert adjudication method for the histopathology scores. It only refers to a "histopathology composite score," which implies a single score derived from the histological examination.

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. This was a nonclinical (animal) study comparing the wound dressing to standard of care. It was not an MRMC study and did not involve human readers or AI assistance.

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

No. This was a nonclinical study of a physical wound dressing device. It does not involve an algorithm or AI.

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

The primary endpoint (ground truth) was a histopathology composite score of dermal wounds. This suggests a pathology-based assessment.

8. The sample size for the training set:

Not applicable. This was a nonclinical study of a physical medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

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

Not applicable, as there was no training set.

4.13. Summary of Animal Testing

A GLP nonclinical study was conducted comparing use of the subject device and standard of care on vesicant-induced sulfur mustard injuries in 165 Gottingen minipigs. Superficial partial thickness (SD) and moderate partial thickness (DD) depth wounds were induced by sulfur mustard vapor followed by wet-to-wet debridement 48 hours post-injury and daily thereafter for 7 days. The wounds were then covered for 30 days with either the subject device or standard of care followed by 7 days of no wound coverage. The primary endpoint for the study was the histopathology composite score (total score of up to 15) of dermal wounds obtained at the end of the study (Study Day 46). The non-inferiority margin for the total histopathology score is 1.5 (or 10% of maximum possible score). In the DD depth injuries, those covered with the subject device had a mean composite histopathology score 0.36 points higher than those covered with standard of care. In the SD depth injuries, those covered with the subject device had a mean composite histopathology score 0.01 points higher than those covered with standard of care. Dressing moistening was performed three times daily with the subject device and once daily with standard of care. The study demonstrated that the Silverlon Wound Contact, Burn Contact Dressing is non-inferior to standard of care when it is changed every 7 days on moderate partial thickness depth decontaminated stable unroofed mustard-induced vesicant injuries not requiring skin grafting on Gottingen minipigs. The study also demonstrated that the Silverlon Wound Contact Burn Contact Dressing is noninferior to standard of care when it is changed every 4 days on superficial thickness depth decontaminated stable unroofed mustard-induced vesicant injuries not requiring skin grafting on Gottingen minipigs. There were no device-related adverse events during the study. The results of this study demonstrated that the new indication does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness and does not significantly increase any concerns of safety or effectiveness in comparison to use of the wound dressings on the other specified burn types in the predicate labeling.

Summary of Clinical Testing 4.14.

No clinical studies were conducted to support this premarket notification.
