Intended Use

The HotDog Temperature Management System is intended to prevent or treat hypothermia and to provide warmth to patients. The System should be used in circumstances in which patients may not mantain a state of normothermia. The System can be used with adult and pediatric patients.

The System is intended primarily for use in hospitals and surgical centers including, without limitation, operating rooms, recovery rooms, emergency rooms, burn units and on other medical/surgical floors.

Device Description

The HotDog Temperature Management System (“System”) is a thermal regulating system, indicated for monitoring and controlling patient temperature in adult and pediatric patients of all ages. Unintended hypothermia can occur for many reasons, the most common clinically being the use of anesthetic drugs in surgery. Given the negative consequences of unintended hypothemia, active warming therapy is standard practice. The System can measure patient core temperature within the range of 31°C to 43 C° (87.8°F to 109.4°F). The System consists of the HotDog Temperature Management Controller (WC7X) and reusable Warming Blankets (BXXX) and Mattresses (UXXX).

The Controller includes:
7-inch touchscreen with intuitive user interface Ability to power multiple warming devices at once Integrated educational slide shows & positioning guides Adjustable settings

Additionally the controller monitors patient core temperature when receiving a signal from an Augustine YSI 400-compatible temperature probe. This requires at least a proprietary cable to make the connection. The Controller can also output the patient temperature to a third-party monitor (e.g., to port to the EMR).

AUTO mode is available if Warming Devices are placed on the patient and plugged-in, and a valid human temperature is measured/monitored. AUTO mode automatically adjusts the warming device temperature setting based on a user-selectable "Normothermia Zone" in increments described in the table below. The upper limit in the example below is set at 38 C and lower limit is set at 36 C for the Normothermia Zone (selectable in the Menu -Setting - Temperature Graph; the zone must extend 1°C or greater).

Blankets and mattresses utilize a flexible semi-conductive polymer fabric which warms the patient effectively within safe limits (controlled temperature, low watt density, low thermal mass). They are RF sealed in durable urethane shells designed to eliminate uncleanable crevices. They are powered by a low voltage floating isolated DC current, designed to safely operate in the most demanding clinical settings.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes specific acceptance criteria and the study conducted to prove that the device, the HotDog Temperature Management System, meets these criteria. This information is primarily found in the "Performance Data", "Further Bench Testing", and "Summary" sections of the document.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Usability: Device is usable, and AUTO mode operation is consistent with manual operation.A Formative usability engineering study was completed. A Summative validation was completed that showed the subject device is usable and that the theory of operation of AUTO mode is consistent with the otherwise manual operation of a typical user in a typical use-case, compliant with IEC 62366-1.
Risk Management: Risk mitigations verified, residual risks assessed, and overall benefit-risk established (benefits outweigh risks). Compliance with ISO 14971.Risk management was applied throughout the development process. Risk mitigations were verified, residual risks assessed, and an overall benefit-risk was established, demonstrating that benefits far outweigh risks, compliant with ISO 14971.
Temperature Probe Compatibility: Temperature from controller readout must be within 0.2°C of converted YSI-400 temperature for 34-41°C range, and within 0.5°C for 20-34°C and 41-45°C ranges. ("combination of these tolerances gives an acceptance criteria")Additional bench testing showed that for each temperature entry, the criteria passed, demonstrating that the device is compatible with Augustine YSI-400 probes. The controller readout has a resolution of 0.1°C, and Augustine YSI-400 probes are interchangeable within 0.2°C for 34-41°C and within 0.5°C for 20-34°C and 41-45°C.
Warming Function: Comparable to predicate device.Bench testing demonstrates that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in warming function. Temperature characteristics and safety systems were assessed and found to be comparable.

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 sample size for the test set or the data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective). The studies mentioned are primarily "bench testing" and "usability studies," which typically involve controlled environments rather than broad clinical data sets.

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)

The document does not specify the number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth. The studies relied on recognized consensus standards (IEC, ISO, ANSI AAMI) for performance and safety measurements, and a "Formative usability engineering study" and "Summative validation" for usability, but details about the experts involved are not provided.

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

The document does not describe any adjudication method for establishing a ground truth for a test set. This type of adjudication is typically used in studies involving subjective assessments, such as expert interpretation of medical images. The studies here are focused on objective performance and safety metrics.

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

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The device is a "Thermal Regulating System" and not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool that would involve "human readers" interpreting data. Therefore, the concept of improving human readers with AI assistance is not applicable here.

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

The performance data discussed (e.g., electrical safety, temperature accuracy, software verification, AUTO mode functionality) are essentially standalone performance evaluations of the device's technical specifications and functionality, without direct "human-in-the-loop" performance as a primary outcome measure for these specific acceptance criteria. The usability study, however, does implicitly involve human interaction, but the "standalone" aspect refers to the device's inherent operation.

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

The ground truth for most of the acceptance criteria is based on:

  • Recognized Consensus Standards: Compliance with international and national standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1, ISO 80601-2-56). These standards themselves represent established criteria and methodologies for determining performance and safety.
  • Manufacturer Specifications/Design Control: The device meeting its own design specifications and functional requirements (e.g., AUTO mode functioning "according its own theory of operation," temperature probe compatibility tolerances).
  • Bench Testing Results: Objective measurements obtained during controlled laboratory tests.
  • Usability Study Findings: Observations and feedback from users during formative and summative usability studies, ensuring the device is intuituve and operates as intended by a user.

8. The sample size for the training set

The document does not mention a "training set" in the context used for AI or machine learning models. The device is a thermal regulating system, and its development and verification did not involve machine learning training sets.

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

As there is no mention of a training set for machine learning, this question is not applicable.

The System is intended primarily for use in hospitals and surgical centers including, without limitation, operating rooms, recovery rooms, emergency rooms, burn units and on other medical/surgical floors. Technological Active warming of patients with semi-conductive blankets and mattresses with a temperature sensor and controller is the Characteristics technological principle for both the subject and predicate devices. The subject and predicate devices share the following same

technological characteristics:

  • Power Supply ●

The subject and predicate devices are in every other respect identical in their construction.

For the subject device, the use of a proprietary cable and Augustine YSI-400 temperature probe unlocks functionality for temperature monitoring and AUTO mode closed-loop warming. This functionality represents the technological difference between the subject and predicate devices. The reference device contains the functionality of active warming, temperature probes and closed-loop warming. Its warming is achieved via warmed water mattress which is different from the subiect and predicate devices, however its broadest use is similar and supports scientific methodology / standard reference values as it relates to the expanded technology of this submission (ie use of FDA recognized consensus standards IEC 60601-1-10 [closed-loop system], ISO 80601-2-56 [temperature monitoring]). Bench testing was performed to demonstrate that the proposed Performance Data controller is compliant with FDA recognized consensus standards related to this submission. These tests were underwritten by Intertek, using pass/fail criteria. Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) The HotDog Temperature Management System is designed and verified to meet the following performance standards: ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1:

Software Verification

Software was verified according to a test protocol, as well as being underwritten as compliant with the software lifecycle standard: IEC 62304, Medical Device – Software Life Cycle Processes Edition 1.1 FDA recognition # 13-79

Usability

A Formative usability engineering study was completed on the subject device. A Summative validation was completed that showed the subject device is usable and that the theory of operation of AUTO mode is consistent with the otherwise manual operation of a typical user in a typical use-case.

IEC 62366-1, Medical Device - Application of usability engineering to medical devices, Edition: 1.0 FDA recognition # 5-114

{7}------------------------------------------------

Risk Management

Risk management was applied throughout the development process of the device. Risk mitigations were verified. Residual risks were assessed and an overall benefit-risk was established. The benefits of the subject device far outweigh the risks.

ISO 14971, Medical Device - Application of Risk Analysis to Medical Devices, third edition FDA recognition # 5-125

Further Bench Testing

Additional bench testing showed that authorized temperature probes are compatible with the system. The YSI-400 specification sheet states that single patient use probe models are interchangeable within 0.2 ℃ for a temperature range of 34 to 41 ℃ and are otherwise interchangeable within 0.5 ℃ for ranges of 20 to 34 ℃ and 41 to 45 ℃. In other words, the temperature from the controller readout must be within 0.2 ℃ or 0.5 ℃ of the converted YSI-400 temperature to be compatible with the probe, depending on the case. Furthermore, the temperature readout of the Multiport controller has a resolution of 0.1 ℃. The combination of these tolerances gives an acceptance criteria. For each temperature entry, the criteria passed, demonstrating that the device is compatible with the Augustine Y SI-400 probes, and can therefore adequately integrate to monitor the patient temperature. Other probes were not considered in this test, as the device is only intended for use in tandem with the Augustine probe. Only Augustine temperature probes or esophageal stethoscopes using this tested connector and YSI-400 thermistor are compatible with this device. Other testing showed that AUTO mode functions according its own theory of operation.

Summary

Bench testing demonstrates that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Temperature characteristics and safety systems were assessed and found to be comparable. Summative validation shows the expanded technology of this submission (temperature monitoring and AUTO mode) are usable and essentially mimic what a user would be doing manually normally.

  • Clinical Data Not required
    Conclusion

The HotDog Temperature Management System was found to be equivalent to the predicate HotDog Temperature Management Controller in warming function. The expanded technology of this submission, when considering the reference device capabilities and tested to FDA recognized consensus standards, demonstrate

{8}------------------------------------------------

substantial equivalence to the predicate. The overall intended use of the device, achieving normothermia, is identical to the predicate. In sum, the HotDog Temperature Management System of this submission is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device.
