Intended Use

The Proxima is intended for prescription use only, to be used for adult patients that require supplemental oxygen in a hospital setting.

Device Description

The Proxima Model-100 is an electronic oxygen conserving device designed for use in a hospital environment. It incorporates a sensitive pressure sensor to detect inhalation, an electronic valve to deliver precise volume of oxygen and a graphical touch screen interface. In pulsed mode the Proxima delivers flows equivalent to 1 to 15 liters per minute of continuous oxygen flow. The volume of each bolus is calculated such that the patient receives the equivalent of the set volume regardless of how slow their breath rate is. To make sure the patient receives oxygen, even if inhalation is not detected, the Proxima automatically changes from pulsed to continuous oxygen flow at the set flow rate if inhalation is not detected for 15 seconds. Proxima displays a warning message to indicate low battery, low oxygen supply pressure, dislodged cannula, lack of inhalation and low nasal airflow. The Proxima is powered using an external 9-volt DC power supply and includes an internal back-up battery. The Proxima is for use with a customer supplied, dual lumen demand nasal cannula, for example the Salter Labs 4807 or similar, to ensure proper patient usage.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a U.S. FDA 510(k) summary for a medical device called "Proxima". It describes the device, its intended use, and compares it to a predicate device to establish substantial equivalence for regulatory clearance.

However, the document does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets specific performance criteria through a clinical or algorithmic performance study, as typically seen for AI/ML-enabled devices.

The "acceptance criteria" section you're asking for typically refers to the pre-defined performance thresholds (e.g., minimum accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, or clinically relevant metrics) that an AI/ML algorithm must meet on a test set to be considered acceptable. The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" would detail the methodology of that study, including test set characteristics, ground truth establishment, expert involvement, and the actual performance metrics achieved by the device.

The provided document focuses on bench testing for the Proxima device, which is an oxygen conserving device, not an AI/ML diagnostic or prognostic tool. The performance testing mentioned (ISO 80601-2-67) evaluates physical parameters like pulse volume, breath rate, oxygen delivery, continuous flow, leak compensation, and breath trigger pressure. These are engineering and functional performance tests for a hardware device, not a performance study for an AI/ML algorithm.

Therefore, based solely on the provided text, I cannot extract the information required to populate your requested table and answer questions 1-9 about AI/ML device performance studies. The document describes a traditional medical device clearance, not an AI/ML device.

If the "Proxima" device were an AI/ML product, the information would typically be found in sections detailing clinical performance studies, often in the "Performance Data" or "Clinical Data" sections of a 510(k) summary, which are absent or not relevant in this document for the type of device described.

Dear Paul Dryden:

We have reviewed vour Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal

Substantial Equivalence Discussion

As described in the table above the Proxima is viewed as substantially equivalent to the predicate device because:

Indications -

  • . The intended therapeutic use of the predicate and subject devices are similar:
  • . Discussion - both the subject and predicate devices provide supplemental oxygen therapy to patients. Both the subject and predicate devices are intended for use by healthcare providers to administer supplemental oxygen to patients. The subject device is intended to be used only for adult patients in a hospital environment and both are to be used for patients requiring supplemental oxygen.

Environment of Use -

  • The subject and predicate devices both include hospital environments. ● Discussion - The predicate device includes home and ambulatory use, this does not impact substantial equivalence

Technology -

  • The technological principles of delivering oxygen in a pulsed dose to the patient by ● sensing inhalation. Oxygen is delivered via nasal cannula to the nostrils. Discussion - The devices are the similar.

Non-clinical Testing Summary -
