Intended Use

Nanum Syringe is the plastic syringe for Single use, with/without needle is intended to be used for medical purposes to inject fluid into or withdraw fluid from body.

Device Description

A sterile device consisting of a calibrated barrel (cylinder) with plunger intended to be used for injection/withdrawal of fluids/gas (e.g., medication) to/from a medical device or the body (i.e., capable of both); a needle is not included. It is intended for various medical applications and is not dedication administration. At the distal end of the barrel is a male connector (typically Luer-lock/slip type) for the attachment to a hypodermic needle or an administration set. It is typically made of plastic and silicone materials and may have anti-stick plunger allowing smooth plunger movement, either manually or by a syringe pump. This is a single-use device.

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

The provided text does not explicitly state the sample sizes used for each individual test within the bench and biocompatibility studies. It only states that "Bench test were performed" and lists the tests.

  • Sample Size (Test Set): Not explicitly stated for each test.
  • Data Provenance: The tests are described as "Bench test were performed." This implies the data were generated in a laboratory setting, likely by Nanum Company Co., Ltd or a testing facility they contracted. The company is located in Daegu, Korea, suggesting the testing was performed there or outsourced. The studies are prospective in nature, as they involve newly manufactured devices being subjected to specific tests to determine their performance against established standards.

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

  • Number of Experts: This type of testing (bench and biocompatibility) generally relies on standardized protocols and objective measurements, not on human expert consensus to establish "ground truth" in the diagnostic sense. Therefore, the concept of "experts" establishing a ground truth as one would for image review or clinical outcomes is not applicable here.
  • Qualifications of Experts: Not applicable. The results are typically interpreted by qualified laboratory personnel following the specified test standards.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Adjudication Method: Not applicable. For bench and biocompatibility testing, results are typically objectively measured and compared against predefined pass/fail criteria outlined in the relevant ISO or ASTM standards. There is no mention of a subjective "adjudication" process akin to what would be used for clinical trial endpoints or image interpretation.

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

  • MRMC Study: No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not conducted. This is a medical device (syringe), not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive technology. The evaluation focuses on the physical and biological properties of the syringe.

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

  • Standalone Performance: No, a standalone performance evaluation (as defined for an algorithm) was not done. This device is a physical medical instrument, not a software algorithm.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this device's evaluation is based on established international and national standards for medical device performance and biocompatibility.

  • For mechanical/physical tests, the ground truth is defined by the objective pass/fail criteria specified in standards like ISO 7886-1:2017 and MFDA Notification No. 2018-72.
  • For biocompatibility tests, the ground truth is defined by the objective pass/fail criteria specified in standards like ISO 10993 series and ASTM F756-17, which evaluate the biological response to the device materials.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Sample Size (Training Set): Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device that requires a training set. The device is a physical product designed and manufactured to meet specific specifications.

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

  • Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device evaluation.

Dear Mr. Chung:

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.

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

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

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 (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.
