2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document does not describe a "test set" in the context of clinical data for performance evaluation. Instead, the "testing" refers to engineering and compliance testing of the device prototypes themselves. Therefore, the "sample size" is the manufactured device unit or units tested for compliance.

  • Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of a clinical test set. The testing was performed on the device models themselves (CMNS6-1 and CMNS6-2).
  • Data Provenance: Not specified as clinical data. The tests were likely conducted by the manufacturer in China, given their location. The studies are retrospective in the sense that they are proving equivalency to a device already on the market, but the testing on the new device would have been done prospectively for this submission.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

This information is not applicable as the ground truth for this type of submission is established through:

  • Engineering specifications and design requirements.
  • Compliance with recognized national and international safety standards (ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-10).
  • Demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device.

No human expert interpretation of clinical data (like radiology reads) is involved in establishing "ground truth" for this device's safety and performance claim.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This is not applicable as there is no clinical test set requiring human adjudication. The "adjudication" is done through engineering measurements and conformity assessments to established standards and predicate specifications.

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

This is not applicable. The device is an electro-acupuncture stimulator, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human readers. No MRMC study was conducted or required for this type of device.

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

This is not applicable. The device is a physical medical instrument, not a software algorithm. Its performance is inherent in its electrical and mechanical properties, not an algorithm's output.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

The "ground truth" for this submission is:

  • Engineering specifications and performance characteristics of the predicate device (K130768).
  • International and national safety standards (ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-10), which define acceptable limits for various electrical and physical parameters, ensuring patient and user safety.
  • The premise that if the new device operates within the same safety and performance parameters as a previously cleared predicate and complies with relevant standards, it is "safe and effective."

8. The sample size for the training set

This is not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a "training set."

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

This is not applicable. As it is not an AI/ML device, there is no training set or associated ground truth establishment process.

Note 1:

Compared with the predicate device, the proposed device can be connected to AC power. Both of the AC power and DC power of the proposed device have passed IEC 60601-1 and EMC tests, and the description of AC power supply has been added to user manual. Therefore, this difference doesn't raise any safety and effectiveness issues.

Note 2:

The weight, dimensions and appearance of the proposed device are a little different from the predicate device K130768, but these differences are insignificant in the terms of safety or effectiveness. Besides, there is a difference in treatment time range between the proposed device and predicate device. The treatment time can be adjusted by user as they want. So, the difference of treatment time range will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

Note 3:

There is a difference in the pulse width between the proposed device and predicate device. Based on the calculation of maximum current density, maximum power density, these parameters don't exceed the safety limit. All deviation and the worst case have been considered in risk analysis report, and all parameters have passed IEC 60601-2-10 test codes. So, the difference doesn't raise any new safety and effectiveness issues.

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

Note 4:

The Maximum Phase Charge of the proposed device are similar to the predicate device, and both of them comply with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-2-10 requirements. So, the differences will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.The maximum average current of the proposed device is smaller than that of the predicate device which means the better safety. The maximum current density and maximum power density are different between the proposed device and the predicate device because they are calculated by different needle surface areas. After calculation, both of them are within the safety limit. Therefore, this difference doesn't raise any safety and effectiveness issues.
