AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the Aspira Peritoneal Drainage System. It outlines the device's intended use, indications for use, and a comparison to a predicate device. Crucially, it lists the performance data provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination, specifically focusing on bench testing and human factors engineering/user engineering.

However, the document does not provide specific acceptance criteria or detailed results in a table format. It states generally that "The results of the testing demonstrated that the subject Aspira Peritoneal Drainage System met the predetermined acceptance criteria applicable to the safety and efficacy of the device."

Furthermore, it does not include information on:

  • The sample size used for the test set or data provenance.
  • The number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications.
  • The adjudication method for the test set.
  • Whether a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done or the effect size.
  • Whether a standalone algorithm performance study was done.
  • The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.).
  • The sample size for the training set.
  • How the ground truth for the training set was established.

Therefore, based solely on the provided text, I cannot fulfill all parts of your request. The information required for a detailed description of acceptance criteria, study design, and ground truth establishment (especially related to AI/algorithm performance) is not present. The document focuses on regulatory submission for a medical device that appears to be mechanical/physical, not an AI/software as a medical device (SaMD).

If this were an AI/SaMD, the typical information regarding "acceptance criteria" would refer to performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, AUC, F1 score, etc., and the "study" would be a clinical validation of the algorithm. The provided text, however, refers to performance tests of a physical device.

Here's what can be extracted and inferred from the text, framed as if it were a full answer, but with caveats:

2. Sample Size and Data Provenance for Test Set:

  • The document does not specify the sample size used for the test set (e.g., number of units tested for each bench test, number of participants for human factors).
  • The data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective) is not stated. Given the context of a 510(k) summary, these are likely internal company tests performed to regulatory standards, rather than clinical trial data.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth:

  • This information is not provided. For physical device performance testing, "ground truth" might refer to engineering specifications or validated test methods, rather than expert interpretation of medical images. For human factors testing, "expert" might implicitly refer to human factors specialists and user testers, but their number and qualifications are not detailed.

4. Adjudication Method for Test Set:

  • This information is not provided and is generally not applicable to bench or human factors testing of this nature. It is typically relevant for studies involving subjective interpretation (e.g., image reading).

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

  • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was mentioned. This type of study (comparing human readers with and without AI assistance) is specific to AI/SaMD and not relevant to the physical device described.

6. Standalone Algorithm Performance Study:

  • No standalone algorithm performance study was mentioned. This device is not an AI/algorithm-based product.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • For the bench tests, the "ground truth" would be established engineering specifications, performance standards, and validated test methodologies. For human factors, it would be user feedback and observed performance against pre-defined usability metrics. No mention of expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data is made for establishing ground truth in this context.

8. Sample Size for Training Set:

  • Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

9. How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established:

  • Not applicable, as there is no training set for a physical device.

§ 876.5630 Peritoneal dialysis system and accessories.

(a)
Identification. (1) A peritoneal dialysis system and accessories is a device that is used as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions, and that consists of a peritoneal access device, an administration set for peritoneal dialysis, a source of dialysate, and, in some cases, a water purification mechanism. After the dialysate is instilled into the patient's peritoneal cavity, it is allowed to dwell there so that undesirable substances from the patient's blood pass through the lining membrane of the peritoneal cavity into this dialysate. These substances are then removed when the dialysate is drained from the patient. The peritoneal dialysis system may regulate and monitor the dialysate temperature, volume, and delivery rate together with the time course of each cycle of filling, dwell time, and draining of the peritoneal cavity or manual controls may be used. This generic device includes the semiautomatic and the automatic peritoneal delivery system.(2) The peritoneal access device is a flexible tube that is implanted through the abdominal wall into the peritoneal cavity and that may have attached cuffs to provide anchoring and a skin seal. The device is either a single use peritioneal catheter, intended to remain in the peritoneal cavity for less than 30 days, or a long term peritoneal catheter. Accessories include stylets and trocars to aid in the insertion of the catheter and an obturator to maintain the patency of the surgical fistula in the abdominal wall between treatments.
(3) The disposable administration set for peritoneal dialysis consists of tubing, an optional reservoir bag, and appropriate connectors. It may include a peritoneal dialysate filter to trap and remove contaminating particles.
(4) The source of dialysate may be sterile prepackaged dialysate (for semiautomatic peritoneal dialysate delivery systems or “cycler systems”) or dialysate prepared from dialysate concentrate and sterile purified water (for automatic peritoneal dialysate delivery systems or “reverse osmosis” systems). Prepackaged dialysate intended for use with either of the peritoneal dialysate delivery systems is regulated by FDA as a drug.
(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The following accessories are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9: A catheter finger grip that is non-patient contacting and intended for single use with a peritoneal catheter; a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) belt; and a catheter stand that does not include weigh scales.
