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

Precision Study:
- Sample Size: 9 different concentrations, with 50 tests performed for each concentration per lot (2 runs per day for 25 days). Since 3 lots were tested, this amounts to 9 concentrations * 50 tests/lot * 3 lots = 1350 tests in total for the precision study itself. The samples were prepared by spiking drug in "negative samples." The provenance is not explicitly stated but implies laboratory-prepared samples.
Comparison Studies (Clinical Samples):
- Sample Size: 80 unaltered clinical samples (40 negative and 40 positive).
- Data Provenance: The document states "unaltered clinical samples." The country of origin for these clinical samples is not specified. It is a retrospective analysis as the samples were collected and then tested.
Lay-User Study:
- Sample Size: 140 lay persons tested individual samples. There were 7 concentration levels, with 20 samples per concentration. So, 7 concentrations * 20 samples/concentration = 140 samples in total.
- Data Provenance: The samples were "spiked drug THC into drug free-pooled urine specimens." The country of origin is not specified. It is a prospective study in the sense that the lay users tested the devices with prepared samples, but the samples themselves were laboratory-prepared.

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

Precision Study: The ground truth was established by laboratory preparation of samples with known concentrations confirmed by LC/MS. No human experts are explicitly mentioned for ground truth.
Comparison Studies (Clinical Samples): The ground truth was established by LC/MS results. "LC/MS is the preferred confirmatory method." The number of LC/MS operators or analysts is not specified, nor are their qualifications.
Lay-User Study: The ground truth for the prepared urine samples was established by LC/MS. The number of LC/MS operators or analysts is not specified, nor are their qualifications.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Precision Study: Not applicable, as results were quantitative (known concentrations) rather than subjective interpretations needing adjudication.
Comparison Studies (Clinical Samples): The document mentions "three different laboratory assistants" performing the tests. Their results were compared to LC/MS. There is no explicit adjudication method stated for discrepancies between human readers or between human readers and LC/MS. The discordant results table simply lists them.
Lay-User Study: Not explicitly stated. Each lay person provided their own result. Their individual results were then compared to the LC/MS confirmed concentration.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs without AI Assistance

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done.
This device is a standalone diagnostic strip test intended for visual interpretation, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. Therefore, there is no AI component or human readers improving with/without AI assistance.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

Yes, in essence, the "device performance" in all studies represents a standalone performance relative to the ground truth (LC/MS). The device itself (the strip test) produces a visual result. While a human reads the result, the performance studies assess the accuracy of the device's output (presence/absence of a line) against known concentrations.
For the "Comparison Studies," the performance of the "Safecare THC Urine Strip Test" is measured for each viewer by comparing their reading of the device against LC/MS. This measures the combined device-human performance.
For the "Lay-User Study," it also measures the combined device-lay user performance.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

For all performance studies (Precision, Comparison, Lay-User), the ground truth was primarily established by LC/MS (Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry). This is a highly accurate and quantitative laboratory method.
For the precision study, it specifies "THC drug concentration was confirmed by LC/MS."
For the comparison studies, it states "The samples were blind labeled and compared to LC/MS results. LC/MS is the preferred confirmatory method."
For the lay-user study, it states "The concentrations of the samples were confirmed by LC/MS."

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Based on the provided document, this is a 510(k) submission for a diagnostic device. Such submissions typically focus on analytical and clinical performance validation rather than explicitly detailing a "training set" for an algorithm.
There is no information provided regarding a "training set" as this is not an AI/machine learning device. The immunoassay device relies on chemical reactions, not on data training.

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

As there is no mention of a "training set" or an algorithm that requires training, this question is not applicable based on the provided document.

9. Test Principle

SAFECARE THC Urine Strip Test devices are rapid tests for the qualitative detection of 11-nor-A9-THC-9 COOH in urine samples. Each assay test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay. During testing, a urine specimen migrates upward by capillary action. If target drug THC is present in the urine specimen below its cut-off concentration, it will not saturate the binding sites of its specific antibody (monoclonal mouse antibody) coated on the particles. The antibody-coated particles will then be captured by immobilized drug-conjugate and a visible colored line will show up in the test line region. The colored line will not form in the test line region if the target drug level exceeds its cutoffconcentration because it will saturate all the binding sites of the antibody coated on the particles. A band should form in the control region of the devices regardless of the presence of drug or metabolite in the sample.

10. Performance Characteristics
