AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for medical devices, specifically Disposable Syringes with permanently attached needles and Safety Syringes with permanently attached needles. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not on proving overall safety and effectiveness through clinical trials or the type of performance studies typically associated with AI/ML-driven devices.

Therefore, many of the requested elements for describing "acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the context of an AI/ML device (e.g., ground truth
establishment, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, effect sizes of human reader improvement with AI) are not applicable to this submission.

This document describes the safety and performance testing for a physical medical device (syringes) based on established international and national standards and biocompatibility testing. The "acceptance criteria" here are compliance with these recognized standards and demonstrated equivalence to existing predicate devices.

Here's an attempt to extract the relevant information based on the provided document, addressing the requested points where applicable and noting when information is not present or not relevant to this type of submission:


Device: Disposable Syringe with permanently attached needle; Safety Syringe with permanently attached needle

Regulatory Pathway: 510(k) Premarket Notification (demonstrates substantial equivalence to predicate devices)


1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria for traditional medical devices like syringes are generally defined by compliance with recognized consensus standards and successful completion of specific performance and safety tests. The document doesn't present a "performance table" in the typical sense of AI/ML device metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity). Instead, it lists the standards the devices adhere to and states that testing was performed and found acceptable.

Acceptance Criteria (Standards/Tests)Reported Device Performance (Compliance/Results)
Biocompatibility Testing (ISO 10993-1:2018 for "Blood path indirect, Limited contact (< 24 hours)")Evaluated in accordance with ISO 10993-1:2018. The following tests were performed and presumably passed (results implied by successful submission):
- Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5: 2009)Performed
- Skin sensitization (ISO 10993-10: 2010)Performed
- Hemolysis (ISO 10993-4: 2017)Performed
- Intracutaneous reactivity (ISO 10993-10: 2010)Performed
- Acute systemic toxicity (ISO 10993-11: 2017)Performed

Substantial EquivalenceDemonstrated through comparison to predicate devices, addressing differences, and showing continued safety and effectiveness through non-clinical testing.

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

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for each specific test. For medical devices like syringes, testing often involves a defined number of units per batch or per test series to meet statistical requirements of the standards (e.g., 30 samples for a particular mechanical test). The document confirms that various tests were "performed" according to the relevant standards, which implies the use of appropriate sample sizes as defined by those standards.
  • Data Provenance: The tests are non-clinical (laboratory/bench testing, material analysis, sterility validation). The manufacturer is Anhui Tiankang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. in Tianchang City, Anhui, China. The data would originate from their internal testing or qualified third-party labs, but the specific country of origin for each test data set is not detailed beyond the manufacturer's location. The studies are by nature prospective in the sense that they are conducted specifically to support this regulatory submission, but they are not clinical studies.

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

  • Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device. "Ground truth" in the context of expert consensus and adjudication is typically relevant to AI/ML devices where the "truth" for image interpretation or diagnosis needs to be established by human experts. For syringes, the "truth" is determined by objective measurements, chemical analyses, and adherence to physical performance specifications outlined in the referenced ISO/ASTM standards. The "experts" involved would be qualified laboratory technicians, engineers, and quality assurance personnel performing the tests according to the standard operating procedures.

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

  • Not Applicable. See point 3. This concept is for AI/ML device performance evaluation methods, not for physical medical device testing.

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 device is a manual syringe, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. No human reader involvement or AI assistance is mentioned or relevant.

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

  • Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

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

  • The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by objective measurements against defined specifications in international and national consensus standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM, USP). This includes:
    • Physical and Mechanical Performance: e.g., plunger force, needle pull-out force, fluid leakage, needle sharpness, volume accuracy based on ISO 7886-1, ISO 7864, ISO 9626.
    • Material Properties and Biocompatibility: Chemical analysis, in vitro and in vivo biological tests (Cytotoxicity, Hemolysis, Skin Sensitization, etc.) as per ISO 10993 series for specific material components.
    • Sterility Assurance: Sterility testing, bacterial endotoxin testing, and ethylene oxide residue testing according to ISO 11135 and USP standards.
    • Shelf-Life Stability: Accelerated aging and real-time stability studies confirming physical properties, sterility, and package integrity over time per ASTM standards.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not Applicable. This is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML model that requires training data.

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

  • Not Applicable. See point 8.

Comment 2

The needle bevel of subject device (11°±2°) is smaller than the predicate device's bevel range of 11°±2° and 15°±2°. The subject device's 0.5ml and 1ml syringe volume is smaller than the predicated device's syringe volume range of 0.3ml and 1ml. And the needle gauge and length of subject devices are similar to the predicate device, the difference is just in dimension. Different specification will be selected by physician per patient's condition. This difference does not affect its intended use. In addition, differences were addressed through ISO 7886-1, ISO 7864 and ISO 9626. Therefore, the differences on syringe volume, needle bevel, needle gauge and length do not raise different question of safety and effectiveness.

Comment 3

The configuration of subject device is same as type B of predicate device, and compared with type A, the difference is that the subject device does not have an end cap, however, it has a needle protective cap that protects the needle. This difference does not raise new questions about safety and effectiveness.

The materials of subject device are similar to the predicated device. Biocompatibility testing is performed with the proposed device. Therefore, the differences on configuration and materials do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
