      • All lay users indicated the device instructions were easy to follow (Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level 7).

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

  • Precision Study: For each drug and concentration, two runs per day for 25 days per device (Dip Card and Cup), implying a total of 50 tests per concentration per lot. With 3 lots, this is 150 tests per concentration per format. There were 9 concentrations tested. So 150*9 = 1350 tests per drug per format.
  • Interference Study: Not explicitly stated, but tests were performed on "three batches of each device" for various interfering substances spiked into drug-free and drug-spiked urine samples.
  • Specificity Study: Not explicitly stated how many tests per compound, but "three batches of each device" were used.
  • Effect of Urine Specific Gravity and Urine pH Study: "three lots of each device" were used for samples spiked with target drugs at +/- 25% Cut-Off levels across the range of specific gravity and pH.
  • Method Comparison Study: 80 "unaltered clinical samples" for each drug (40 negative and 40 positive relative to cut-off). This was conducted "in-house." The provenance of the clinical samples is not specified beyond being "clinical samples."
  • Lay-user Study: 310 lay persons for each device format. The samples were prepared by spiking drugs into "drug free-pooled urine specimens." The concentrations were confirmed by LC/MS. Thus, the samples were prepared and not naturally occurring clinical samples.

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

  • For the Precision, Interference, Specificity, and Effect of Urine Specific Gravity and Urine pH Studies: The ground truth was established by precise laboratory preparation of samples where drug concentrations were known and confirmed by LC/MS. There were no human experts classifying these samples for ground truth.
  • For the Method Comparison Study: The ground truth was established by LC/MS results. LC/MS is a highly accurate and definitive analytical method. The text does not mention human experts establishing ground truth for these samples; it was based on the objective chemical analysis. The "three laboratory assistants" were operators performing the device tests, not establishing ground truth.
  • For the Lay-user Study: The ground truth was the known drug concentration of the prepared urine samples, confirmed by LC/MS.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Precision, Interference, Specificity, and Effect of Urine Specific Gravity and Urine pH Studies: No human adjudication was mentioned as the ground truth was based on precisely prepared samples with known concentrations.
  • Method Comparison Study: The device results were compared directly to LC/MS results. There was no adjudication mentioned involving human experts to reconcile discrepancies between device and LC/MS. Discrepancies were simply reported as "discordant results."
  • Lay-user Study: Comparisons were made against the known LC/MS confirmed concentrations of the prepared samples. No human adjudication was mentioned.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

  • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This device is a rapid diagnostic test (lateral flow immunoassay) for drug detection, where the "reading" is a visual interpretation of lines by a user (or laboratory assistant in the method comparison study). It does not appear to involve AI or sophisticated image analysis where human readers would be "assisted" by AI. The "lay-user study" involved multiple readers (310 lay persons), but it was designed to assess the ease of use and accuracy of the device itself by untrained individuals, not to compare human performance with and without AI assistance.

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

  • This device is a lateral flow immunoassay intended for visual interpretation. It does not have an "algorithm only" component in the sense of a software-based AI system. Its performance inherently involves a "human-in-the-loop" to view and interpret the test lines.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • The primary ground truth used throughout the studies (precision, interference, specificity, method comparison, and lay-user study) was LC/MS (Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry), which is a definitive analytical method for confirming drug concentrations in urine samples. For analytical studies, ground truth was also established by careful preparation of samples with known drug concentrations.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • This document describes performance studies for an immunochromatographic assay, which is a chemical/biological test, not a machine learning or AI model. Therefore, there is no "training set" in the context of AI model development. The assays are "trained" during their manufacturing and chemical formulation processes to react at specific cut-off levels.

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

  • As stated above, this device is not an AI/ML product and thus does not have a "training set" with ground truth in that context. The "training" of the assay refers to its inherent chemical design to react to certain drug concentrations, which relies on established analytical chemistry principles and known drug properties.

9. Test Principle

The SAFECARE® Dip Card Tests, and SAFECARE® Cup Tests are rapid tests for the qualitative detection of Amphetamine, Oxazepam, Cocaine, Cannabinoids, Methamphetamine, Morphine, Secobarbital, Methadone, Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, Oxycodone, Buprenorphine, Phencyclidine, Nortriptyline, Propoxyphen and 2-ethylidene-1, 5-dimethyl-3, 3diphenylpyrrolidine in urine samples. The tests are lateral flow chromatographic immunoassays. During testing, a urine specimen migrates upward by capillary action. If target drugs present in the urine specimen are below the cut-off concentration, it will not saturate the binding sites of its specific 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 cutoff-concentration because it will saturate all the binding sites of the antibody

{9}------------------------------------------------

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 to indicate that the tests have been performed properly.
