- Sensitization: Under the conditions of the study, the device is nonsensitizing. (Passed)
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The sample sizes are indicated as the number of items tested for each specific criterion (e.g., "315/315 passed" for flame spread, or "309/315 passed" for synthetic blood penetration across three lots). The data provenance is implied to be from laboratory testing conducted on manufactured lots of the product. The manufacturer is Fujian MEO Medical Technology Limited, located in China. The study is a pre-market notification (510(k)) submission, meaning it is a prospective evaluation (tests are conducted specifically for the submission).
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts
Not applicable. The "ground truth" for a face mask's performance is established by standardized, objective laboratory testing methodologies (e.g., ASTM F2100-19) that measure physical properties, not by human expert interpretation of data.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. Performance is measured objectively according to specified test standards.
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
Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an AI algorithm.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an AI algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth used for this device is based on standardized laboratory testing protocols (e.g., those outlined in ASTM F2100-19) for measuring specific physical and performance characteristics of medical face masks (e.g., filtration efficiency, breathability, fluid resistance, flammability, and biocompatibility).
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an AI algorithm that requires a training set. The "training" for such a product would typically refer to the manufacturing process and quality control, not data training.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable. As above, this is a physical device.
