Intended Use

This intermittent catheter is a flexible tubular device that is inserted through the urethra by male, female and pediatric patients who need to drain urine from the bladder.

Device Description

This submission is to add an additional size (Fr 08) to the currently cleared 16-inch Pocket and Plus Pocket configurations of VaPro 2.

The VaPro 2 Pocket Line Extension is a hydrophilic coated, single use catheter to be used as a means of managing urinary incontinence by draining urine from the bladder. VaPro 2 Pocket Line Extension has the following features:

  • Hydrophilic-coated PVC catheter (phthalate free)
  • Two smooth catheter eyelets
  • Protective sleeve
  • Protective introducer tip as a way to shield the sterile catheter from bacteria in the distal urethra during insertion
  • Color-coded funnel.
  • Urine Collection bag (for the Plus Pocket version)

The packaging contains a sealed water compartment chamber from which the water migrates to the catheter compartment and hydrates (lubricates) the catheter. The outer packaging is designed to facilitate access for those with limited dexterity. The Pocket version is designed to be discreet and easy to store. In the Plus Pocket configuration, the urinary catheter is connected to a collection bag for use when drainage into a suitable receptacle is not feasible or practical.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (VaPro 2 Pocket Line Extension, a urological catheter). It outlines the device's characteristics, intended use, and a comparison to predicate and reference devices. However, this document does not contain any information about a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria related to standalone or human-in-the-loop AI performance, nor does it discuss ground truth establishment, expert consensus, or sample sizes for AI model training or testing.

The document details the following non-clinical testing for the catheter:

  • Physical performance properties: Met requirements of EN 1618, EN 1616, EN 13868. The Plus Pocket version also met ISO 8669-2 and ASTM-D1003-13.
  • Biocompatibility testing: Met requirements of ISO 10993-1, 10993-5, 10993-12. The Plus Pocket version also met ISO 10993-11.
  • Sterilization: Met requirements of ISO 11137-1, ISO 11137-2, AAMI/ANSI/ISO 11737-1, and AAMI/ANSI/ISO 11737-2.

This information refers to traditional medical device performance and safety testing, not the type of studies typically conducted for AI/ML-based medical devices (e.g., diagnostic algorithms, image analysis software). Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information about AI model acceptance criteria, study methodologies, or performance metrics from this document.

For a K-number submission like this, the device is considered substantially equivalent to a predicate device, meaning it has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics, and any differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The "acceptance criteria" here are that the physical and biological characteristics of the new device are comparable to those of the predicate device and meet relevant performance standards, as indicated by the brief description of non-clinical testing.

If you are looking for information regarding AI model validation in FDA submissions, you would typically find it in K-numbers for devices that explicitly leverage artificial intelligence or machine learning for their primary function, such as diagnostic assistance or image interpretation. This document does not describe such a device or study.

Dear Michelle Schiltz-Taing:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

{1}------------------------------------------------

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
