2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document does not explicitly state the specific sample sizes used for each individual test or the data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective). It generally refers to "test specimens" or "test samples" for each performance test. The performance testing was done to demonstrate compliance with recognized international and national standards.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g., radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This information is not applicable as the tests performed are physical, chemical, and biological performance tests for a medical device (sharps container), not diagnostic image analysis or clinical studies requiring expert ground truth establishment. The "ground truth" for these tests is defined by the technical specifications and acceptance criteria of the referenced standards.

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

This information is not applicable for the type of performance testing conducted. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical trials or studies involving human assessment or interpretation, not for objective engineering or laboratory tests.

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 information is not applicable. The device is a physical sharps container and not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool. Therefore, MRMC studies and AI assistance are irrelevant to its evaluation.

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

This information is not applicable. The device does not involve an algorithm or AI.

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

The ground truth used for these performance tests is based on objective measurements and predefined thresholds established by the relevant national and international standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM, DOT CFR). For biological tests, the ground truth is based on the absence of cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, or successful disinfection/cleaning as per the specified methods and criteria. No expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data were used to establish the ground truth for these device performance tests.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not applicable. The device is not an AI/machine learning model and therefore does not have a "training set."

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

This information is not applicable for the same reason as above; there is no training set for this type of device.
