AI/ML Overview

This looks like a 510(k) summary for a medical device called "VistaScan™ USB Ultrasound Imaging System." Unfortunately, this document does not contain the details necessary to answer your specific questions about acceptance criteria and the comprehensive study that proves the device meets those criteria.

Here's why and what information is missing:

  • No specific acceptance criteria: The document mentions "predetermined acceptance criteria" for verification testing but does not list what those criteria actually are (e.g., specific performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, image resolution values, etc.).
  • No detailed study results: It states "VistaScan™ successfully passed verification testing" and "The results support substantial equivalence," but it does not provide the actual quantitative results of these tests against the acceptance criteria.
  • No information on clinical validation studies: While it states "VistaScan™ USB Ultrasound Imaging System introduces no new indication for use, modes, features, or technologies relative to the predicate devices that require animal or clinical safety and effectiveness of ultrasound systems with these characteristics are well accepted for both predicate and subject devices," this means they did not conduct a new clinical study. They are relying on the known safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices. Therefore, there are no details on sample size, data provenance, ground truth, expert opinions, MRMC studies, or standalone performance for this specific device's clinical performance.

Based on the provided document, I cannot create the requested table or answer most of your detailed questions regarding acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them because that information is not present.

The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, which is a regulatory pathway in the US that often relies on comparison to existing legally marketed devices rather than extensive de novo clinical trials for performance metrics.

Here's what I can extract from the document related to testing, but it falls short of your request:

Non-Clinical Performance Testing Mentioned:

The VistaScan™ USB Ultrasound Imaging System underwent evaluation against relevant requirements in the "Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers: Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff, June 27, 2019." The areas of evaluation included:

  • Acoustic Output
  • Clinical measurement accuracy and system sensitivity
  • Thermal, mechanical, and electrical safety
  • Patient-contacting materials
  • Cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and pyrogenicity
  • Software

Electrical Safety / Electromagnetic Compatibility:

  • Standards referenced: IEC 60601-1: 2005 + CORR. 1 (2006) + CORR. 2 (2007) and IEC/EN 60601-1-2:2014.
  • Conditions: Evaluation was performed for use of the transducer with a specific computer model (HP Netbook).
  • User Responsibility: Use of alternate USB 2.0 compatible computer hardware requires verification by the end user (as stated in the Instructions for Use).

Standards Conformity:

The device references the following FDA recognized standards:

  • IEC 60601-1: 2005 + CORR. 1 (2006) + CORR. 2 (2007) (FDA Recognition#: 19-4): Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance.
  • IEC/EN 60601-1-2:2014 4th Ed. (FDA Recognition#: 19-8): Medical electrical equipment - Part 1-2: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic disturbances - Requirements and tests.
  • IEC 60601-2-37:2007 (FDA Recognition#: 12-293): Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-37: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of ultrasonic medical diagnostic and monitoring equipment.

Regarding your specific questions, here's what the document indicates or lacks:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Not provided. The document states "predetermined acceptance criteria" were used and "VistaScan™ successfully passed verification testing," but does not list the criteria or the quantitative performance results.
  2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not provided. This document does not describe a performance study with a distinct test set of imaging data. The evaluations mentioned are primarily non-clinical engineering and safety tests.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable/Not provided. No clinical ground truth establishment for a test set is described.
  4. Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable/Not provided.
  5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: No, this type of study was not done. The document states that clinical safety/effectiveness is "well accepted for both predicate and subject devices" due to similar indications/features, implying no new clinical trials were performed for this submission.
  6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable/Not provided. This is an ultrasound imaging system, not an AI-driven image analysis or diagnostic algorithm in the sense of standalone performance evaluation like an AI CADe/CADx device. The "Software control" is listed as "Standalone," which refers to the software being self-contained, not a standalone AI algorithm's diagnostic performance.
  7. The type of ground truth used: Not applicable/Not provided. Clinical ground truth (pathology, expert consensus, outcomes) is not discussed because no clinical performance study for this device's imaging capabilities is detailed. The ground truth for engineering tests would be instrument readings or established safety limits.
  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable/Not provided. There is no mention of a training set as this document doesn't describe an AI/machine learning model that requires a training set for clinical diagnostic performance.
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable/Not provided.

In summary, this document is a regulatory submission demonstrating substantial equivalence based on technical specifications and non-clinical testing against recognized standards, rather than a detailed report of a clinical performance study with defined acceptance criteria and results against those criteria.
