  • . XACT Computer Work Station which includes the user interface for trajectory planning and review of instrument position
  • XACT System Cart ●
AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the XACT Robotic System, a user-controlled positioning system intended to assist in CT-guided percutaneous procedures. While the document outlines several performance tests and mentions preliminary clinical data, it does not explicitly define acceptance criteria as a table with numerical targets, nor does it detail a comparative effectiveness study (MRMC) or a standalone AI algorithm. It provides some performance figures from pre-clinical and preliminary clinical studies.

Here's an attempt to extract the information based on the provided text, acknowledging the limitations regarding the completeness of "acceptance criteria" as you might expect in a formal table with specific thresholds:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document doesn't present "acceptance criteria" in a formal table with specific numerical thresholds for each test. Instead, it describes performance tests and their outcomes.

Performance Test CategoryReported Device Performance (Proxy for Acceptance)
Pre-clinical Animal Study (Porcine Model)- Target Reach: System reached the target in all 40 interventional procedures.
- Average Accuracy: 1.41mm ± 0.94mm (Distance from target).
- Adverse Events: No adverse events reported specific to the system (implied by "demonstrate the safety and effectiveness").
Preliminary Clinical Data- Target Reach/Success Rate: Device successfully reached the target in 27 out of 31 cases (87.1%).
- Procedure Completion (Manual Intervention): In 4 out of 31 subjects, the procedure was completed successfully with manual insertion after initial system use.
- Specifications Met: "The system met its predefined specifications for use to guide and advance an instrument during CT-guided interventional procedures." (Specific values not provided).
- Serious Adverse Events: No serious adverse events reported for any of the subjects.
Bench/Laboratory Tests (General Statements)- Mechanical Accuracy: In accordance with ASTM F2554-10 (standard met).
- Registration Precision: Assessed in a simulated clinical environment.
- CT Phantom Accuracy: Evaluated device performance and system accuracy.
- Rigidity: Tested under different weight loads.

- Body Contour & Movement/Respiration Synchronization: Evaluated compatibility and synchronization.
- System Lifetime Testing: Conducted.
- Electrical Safety: In accordance with IEC 60601-1 (standard met).
- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): In accordance with IEC 60601-1-2 (standard met).
- Biocompatibility: In accordance with ISO 10993 (standard met).

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

  • Test Set (Pre-clinical animal study):
    • Sample Size: 40 interventional procedures.
    • Data Provenance: Porcine model (animal study). Specific country of origin is not mentioned, but it's a pre-clinical study.
  • Test Set (Preliminary clinical data):
    • Sample Size: 31 cases (interim set of subjects).
    • Data Provenance: Clinical data gathered in 2 clinical centers. Specific country of origin is not mentioned. It is prospective data collection since it's described as "preliminary clinical data, to supplement the bench and preclinical animal testing."

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

The document does not specify the number of experts for "ground truth" establishment in the context of the animal or clinical studies. The results from the animal study (target reach, accuracy) and clinical study (successful target reach, adverse events) are presented as direct measurements. For the clinical data, the procedures were performed by physicians, as indicated by "physician defined trajectory path" and "manual insertion according to routine clinical procedure," implying the usual clinical practice standards would serve as the "truth" for procedure success and safety. However, the exact process of establishing ground truth by a panel of experts is not described.

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

The document does not describe any specific adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1 consensus) for establishing ground truth or evaluating outcomes in either the pre-clinical or preliminary clinical studies. Outcomes appear to be directly measured (e.g., distance from target, successful reach, reported adverse events).

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 is mentioned. The study focuses on the device's ability to assist in procedures, not on evaluating human reader performance with or without AI assistance, as the system is a robotic positioning system, not an AI-based diagnostic tool for image interpretation.

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

The device is a "user-controlled positioning system" and "intended to assist in the planning and advancement of an instrument." It is designed for human-in-the-loop operation, where the physician controls advancement and defines the trajectory. Therefore, a standalone (algorithm only) performance evaluation without human interaction would not be applicable or described for this type of device. The accuracy results (1.41mm ± 0.94mm) from the animal study could be considered a measure of the system's standalone (robotic execution) accuracy once a trajectory is defined.

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

  • Pre-clinical Animal Study: The ground truth for accuracy was based on direct measurement of the "distance from the target" following robotic insertion in animal models. Successful target reach was also a direct outcome. Safety was assessed through reporting of adverse events.
  • Preliminary Clinical Data: The ground truth for success appears to be whether the device "successfully reached the target" and whether the "procedure was completed successfully" (even if later by manual intervention). Safety was assessed by "no serious adverse events reported." These are outcomes-based or procedural success-based ground truths, likely determined by the operating physician and recorded.

8. The sample size for the training set

The document does not provide information about a "training set" for an AI algorithm because the XACT Robotic System is described as a "user-controlled positioning system," not explicitly an AI-driven image analysis or diagnostic tool that would typically undergo a separate training phase with a large dataset. While it has software for planning, the core function described is mechanical assistance and guidance.

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

As no training set for an AI algorithm is mentioned, the method for establishing its ground truth is also not applicable or described in the provided text.

  • . XACT Robot Positioning Unit & Insertion Module Assembly which is placed on the patient
  • XACT Control Unit (Central Computer) .
  • . XACT Computer Work Station which includes the user interface for trajectory planning and review of instrument position
  • XACT System Cart ●

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The XACT Robotic System is a user-controlled positioning system intended to assist in the planning and advancement of an instrument during Computed Tomography (CT) guided percutaneous procedures. The system is used for trajectory planning and is intended to assist the physician in positioning of an instrument, such as a needle, where CT imaging is used for target trajectory planning and intraoperative tracking.

Summary of Technological Characteristics

The XACT Robotic System allows for planning of percutaneous CT-guided procedures and tracking and positioning of the instrument during the procedure.

Both the XACT System and the cleared iSYS 1 predicate device are designed to provide positioning of instruments for percutaneous intervention under imaging guidance from CT scanners. The systems position the instrument according to a predefined trajectory following a registration process between the device's coordinate system and real-time CT images. achieving this, both the XACT Robotic System and the iSYS 1 System comprise similar components, namely a control unit, a bed/table, floor or patient mount, a robotic positioning unit and tool guide adapter and insertion module.

The XACT Robotic System robot positioning unit is placed directly on the patient in the region of interest for the percutaneous procedure, whereas the iSYS 1 System is placed on the bed/table using various adapters.

While the iSYS 1 System is only used to initially position the instrument prior to insertion into the patient and the insertion of the instrument is completed manually by the physician holding the instrument, the XACT Robotic System Insertion Module Assembly includes a jig which holds the instrument. Advancement of the instrument is controlled by the physician depressing a foot pedal to move the needle forward with the XACT Robotic System with the robot positioning unit making adjustments to the positioning of the instrument to ensure that the instrument remains on the physician defined trajectory path.

The XACT Robotic System also includes software for planning the instrument trajectory overlaid on CT images. The iSYS 1 System is used with separately cleared planning software to perform this function, though the cleared Perfint Maxio device includes its own planning software.

Performance Data

The following performance/safety tests were conducted with the XACT Robotics System:

  • . Mechanical Accuracy in accordance with the ASTM F2554-10 Standard Practice for Measurement of Positional Accuracy of Computer Assisted Surgical Systems
  • . Registration Precision in a simulated clinical environment under CT quidance
  • CT Phantom Accuracy to evaluate device performance and system accuracy under simulated clinical conditions under CT quidance.
  • . Rigidity of the system under different weight loads
  • . Axes Mapping to evaluate the performance specifications of each of the axes of movement when individually operated
  • . Needle Properties Testing to evaluate the mechanical strength of compatible needles under forces which may be applied by the XACT Robot during insertion
  • Body Contour & Movement/Respiration Synchronization to evaluate compatibility with different body contours and that the movement sensor is synchronized with patient breathing motions
  • System Lifetime Testing
  • Electrical safety in accordance with IEC 60601-1
  • . Electromagnetic compatibility in accordance with IEC 60601-1-2
  • . Biocompatibility in acordance with ISO 10993 for all patient-contacing componnets of the system

Pre-clinical animal testing was conducted on the XACT Robotic System to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the device. The study in a porcine model evaluated the accuracy of the XACT system as determined by the measurement of the distance from the target and reporting on adverse events. A total of 40 interventional procedures were performed in different body organs while animals were under general anesthesia. The XACT system reached the target in all of the 40 interventional procedures. The average accuracy of the system was 1.41mm ± 0.94mm.

The results of the testing demonstrate that the XACT System meets its specifications and that CT-quided interventional procedures can be performed safely and successfully consistent with the target accuracy specification.

Preliminary clinical data, to supplement the bench and preclinical animal testing and confirm the safety and performance of the system was gathered in 2 clinical centers, where the XACT Robotic System was used to plan an instrument trajectory and advance the instrument to the target in subjects undergoing CT-guided procedures in the abdominal area. Out of the 31 cases from an interim set of subjects where an instrument was inserted using the XACT Robotic System, the device successfully reached the target in 27 cases. In 4 out of the 31 subjects, the procedure was completed successfully with manual insertion according to routine clinical procedure. The system met its predefined specifications for use to guide and advance an instrument during CT-guided interventional procedures. There were no serious adverse events reported for any of the subjects.

Conclusions

The XACT Robotic System has the same intended uses and similar indications for use,

{6}------------------------------------------------

technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate device. The minor differences in indications do not alter the intended use of the device and do not affect its safety and effectiveness when used as labeled. In addition, the minor technological differences between the XACT Robotic System and its predicate devices do not raise different issues of safety or effectiveness. Preclinical performance data demonstrate that the XACT Robotic System meets its defined specifications and that it is as safe and effective as the predicate devices. Preclinical and clinical performance with the device further supports its substantial equivalence to the predicates, providing evidence that the XACT Robotic System can be used to assist in the planning and advancement of an instrument during CT-guided percutaneous procedures with no serious adverse events specific to use of the system. Thus, the XACT Robotic System is substantially equivalent.
