The reported performance of the subject device (Clarius Ultrasound Scanner) is identical to the predicate device (Clarius Ultrasound Scanner, K180799) across all listed criteria, indicating substantial equivalence.
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
The provided document does not mention a specific "test set" or its sample size for evaluating the performance of the new transducer models. The study primarily relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated for a dedicated test set. The submission focuses on nonclinical performance data related to compliance with various international standards, rather than direct human subject testing for the new transducer models.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth:
Not applicable. The document states that "The Clarius Ultrasound Scanner did not require clinical testing to establish substantial equivalence." Therefore, no experts were used to establish ground truth for a clinical test set. The substantial equivalence argument is based on technical specifications and adherence to recognized standards.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
Not applicable, as no clinical test set requiring expert adjudication was conducted or described in the provided information.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:
No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was mentioned or performed as per the provided document. The submission focuses on comparing the new device models to a predicate device based on technical and functional equivalence.
6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only):
The document does not describe a standalone algorithm-only performance study. The "Clarius Ultrasound Scanner" is described as a comprehensive ultrasound imaging system, not a device primarily driven by an AI algorithm requiring standalone performance evaluation in the context of this submission. The device is software-based but its performance evaluation within this 510(k) submission is related to hardware compliance and functional equivalence, not AI-driven diagnostic performance that would necessitate standalone algorithm studies.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used:
Not applicable. As clinical testing was not required for substantial equivalence, no clinical ground truth (e.g., expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data) was established or used for the evaluation of the subject device in this submission. The "ground truth" for the device's capabilities is implicitly established by its adherence to recognized industry standards for medical electrical equipment and its equivalence to the predicate device’s established performance.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set:
Not applicable. The provided information relates to a 510(k) submission for new transducer models, demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It does not mention machine learning or AI models requiring a training set for diagnostic or analytical performance.
9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
Not applicable, as no training set for a machine learning or AI model was mentioned in the provided text.
