Study Details

  1. Sample Size and Data Provenance for Test Set:

    • Number of Subjects: 18 (13 females, 5 males)
    • Number of Images: 2,146 (1,168 from females, 978 from males)
    • Country of Origin: All Koreans
    • Data Provenance: The text does not explicitly state if the data was retrospective or prospective, but it describes the process of "collecting scan data" and the involvement of experts in establishing ground truth, suggesting it was acquired for the purpose of this validation.
  2. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth:

    • Number of Experts: 15 experts (Ten anesthesiologists and five sonographers).
    • Qualifications: All experts had "more than 10 years of experience."
  3. Adjudication Method for Test Set:

    • One anesthesiologist who scanned the ultrasound directly drew the initial ground truth of the nerve location.
    • "Two or more other anesthesiologists and sonographers reviewed and confirmed that it was correct."
    • If there was any mistake during the review, "it was revised again." This indicates an iterative consensus-based adjudication.
  4. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

    • The provided document does not mention a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study to assess how human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance. The study focuses solely on the performance of the AI algorithm (NerveTrack) itself.
  5. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only):

    • Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The "Acceptance Criteria" and "Summary Performance data" tables explicitly relate to the performance of the NerveTrack AI algorithm (Accuracy and Speed). The study evaluates the algorithm's ability to detect nerves independently.
  6. Type of Ground Truth Used:

    • Expert Consensus: The ground truth was established by a panel of experienced anesthesiologists and sonographers who directly drew and reviewed the nerve locations.
  7. Sample Size for Training Set:

    • The document states: "The training data used for the training of the NerveTrack algorithm is independent of the data used to test the NerveTrack algorithm." However, it does not specify the sample size of the training set.
  8. How Ground Truth for Training Set Was Established:

    • The document explicitly states that the training data and test data are independent. However, it does not provide details on how the ground truth for the training set was established. It can be inferred that a similar expert-driven annotation process likely took place for the training data, but it is not explicitly stated in the provided text.

The standalone performance of NerveTrack was evaluated for BMI (Body Mass Index) subgroups, which are potential subject and image confounder. For subgroup analysis, we divided BMI values into four groups according to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) definition for adult overweight & obesity. They are underweight (BMI < 18.5), healthy weight (18.5 ≤ BMI < 25), overweight (25 ≤ BMI < 30), and obesity (BMI ≥ 30).

We evaluated the performance for the four groups and observed very good generalizability for BMI. Because the average accuracy of all subgroups are included within the confidence interval of the accuracy for the full dataset. The depth range was set 2.5cm to 4.5cm and the maximum depth of detected nerve was at 3.31 cm from skin. When we calculate the relationship between BMI and the maximum depth of nerves, it shows the low correlation and no significant difference of NerveTrack performance according to the patient's BMI information. So, we believe that our model is robust even if the cases with various BMI information.

When collecting scan data, the speed of the probe varies from about 1cm to 5cm per second. the orientation of the probe was short-axis imaging and was perpendicular to the skin, obtained by sliding the probe in both the proximal and distal directions. All the nerve data were acquired on Samsung ultrasound devices including V8.

Ten anesthesiologists and five sonographers with more than 10 years of experience participated to establish the ground truth (GT) for the location of 8 different kinds of nerves. One anesthesiologist who scanned the ultrasound directly drew the GT of nerve location, and two or more other anesthesiologists and sonographers reviewed and confirmed that it was correct. If there was any mistake during the review, it was revised again.

The training data used for the training of the NerveTrack algorithm is independent of the data used to test the NerveTrack algorithm.

    1. Summary of Clinical Tests
      The proposed device V8 / V7 Ultrasound System did not require clinical studies to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

13. Conclusion

Since the predicate devices and subject device have a similar intended use and key technological features, the non-clinical data support the safety of the device and demonstrate that the V8 / V7 Ultrasound System should perform as intended in the specified use conditions. Therefore, SAMSUNG MEDISON CO., LTD. concludes that the performance of the subject device is as safe and effective, and is therefore substantially equivalent, to the primary predicate device that is currently marketed for the same intended use.
