Intended Use

Aqua Naina Sterile Saline Solution is indicated only for rinsing soft contact lenses after cleaning and disinfection before use.

Device Description

Aqua Naina Sterile Saline Solution is a sterile, preservative-free, buffered, isotonic, clear colorless aqueous solution containing isotonic solution of sodium chloride, boric acid and sodium borate in purified water USP. Aqua Naina Sterile Saline Solution has pH of 6.30 to 7.80 and Osmolality of 280 to 320 mOsmol/kg The Sterile Saline Solution is packed in 4 fl oz (118ml) high density polyethylene (HDPE) container with a tamper evident seal.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the 510(k) Premarket Notification for Aqua Naina Sterile Saline Solution and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices. It focuses on the chemical composition, intended use, and various safety tests (sterility, biocompatibility, ocular irritation, cytotoxicity).

However, this document does not describe acceptance criteria, performance data, or study details relevant to a machine learning or AI device. The device in question is a sterile saline solution, which is a chemical product, not a medical imaging or AI diagnostic device. Therefore, the requested information about test sets, data provenance, expert consensus, MRMC studies, or training sets is not applicable to this submission.

The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in this context refers to a series of chemical and biological tests conducted on the saline solution to demonstrate its safety and performance, as outlined in section (7) "PERFORMANCE STSTANDARDS APPLIED".

Here's a breakdown of what is provided and why it doesn't fit the typical AI/ML device study format:

  • Device: Aqua Naina Sterile Saline Solution (a chemical product for contact lens care).

  • Acceptance Criteria & Reported Performance: These are presented implicitly through the successful completion of various tests against established standards for saline solutions.

    • Sterility: USP <71>
    • Bacteriostasis: USP <71>
    • Ocular irritation: Tested per ISO 10993-10:2010
    • Cytotoxicity (Direct contact test & MEM Elution test): Tested per ISO 10993-5:2009
    • Biocompatibility: Tested per ISO 10993-1:2009
    • pH: 6.30 to 7.80 (reported in description)
    • Osmolality: 280 to 320 mOsmol/kg (reported in description)
      The document states: "Results of all testing demonstrate the solution is non-toxic, is comparable to other currently marketed soft contact lens solution and is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicates." This is the reported device performance meeting the acceptance criteria set by these standards.
  • Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance: Not applicable. This refers to chemical and biological samples, not image datasets. The tests are laboratory-based, not based on patient data in the sense of AI/ML.

  • Number of Experts, Qualifications, Adjudication Method: Not applicable. These relate to human interpretation of diagnostic data, which is not relevant for testing a saline solution.

  • MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: Not applicable. This is for evaluating AI assistance in diagnostic tasks.

  • Standalone Performance (algorithm only): Not applicable, as there is no algorithm.

  • Type of Ground Truth: Not applicable in the AI/ML sense. Ground truth here is established by laboratory measurements and biological assays, comparing results against defined pass/fail criteria from recognized standards (e.g., USP, ISO).

  • Sample Size for Training Set & How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established: Not applicable. There is no machine learning model involved, therefore no training set. The "training" of the product is its formulation and manufacturing process, and its "ground truth" is its chemical and physical properties verified through standard laboratory testing.

In summary, the provided document details the regulatory clearance of a contact lens saline solution, not an AI/ML-based medical device. Therefore, the questions posed regarding AI/ML device acceptance criteria and study methodology cannot be answered from this information.

Dear Thomas Padula:

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 (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-safetyreporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) 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-devices/medical-device-safety/medical-devicereporting-mdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/medicaldevices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance) and CDRH Learn (https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/cdrh-learn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic. See the DICE website (https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-advice-comprehensive-regulatoryassistance/contact-us-division-industry-and-consumer-education-dice) for more information or contact DICE by email (DICE@fda.hhs.gov) or phone (1-800-638-2041 or 301-796-7100).
