Intended Use

The HOPKINS Telescopes are intended to provide visualization during laparoscopy and general surgery in adults and pediatrics.

Device Description

The HOPKINS Telescopes are rigid telescopes that utilize the rod lens technology. At the distal end of the telescope's shaft is the lens and the other end of the shaft is attached to the eyepiece. Throughout the central lumen of the HOPKINS Telescopes, optical glass rods are used to transmit and magnify the image received from the lens. The HOPKINS Telescopes are available with 0°, 25° and 45° direction of view, 5mm diameter and 29cm working lengths.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the KARL STORZ HOPKINS Telescopes. This document is a premarket notification for a medical device to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. As such, it focuses on comparing the new device to an existing one based on technical characteristics, rather than establishing acceptance criteria and proving performance through a clinical study for an AI/ML-driven device.

The document discusses the physical and optical characteristics of the endoscope, reprocessing methods, and non-clinical performance data (e.g., adherence to ISO standards, biocompatibility, thermal safety, reprocessing validation). It explicitly states: "There are no performance standards or special controls developed under Section 514 of the FD&C Act for endoscopes." This indicates that the regulatory pathway for this device does not require the kind of performance validation typically seen for AI/ML devices, which would involve acceptance criteria for metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or AUC, and detailed clinical study designs.

Therefore, the document does not contain the information required to answer the prompt questions regarding acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device. The HOPKINS Telescopes are a traditional optical medical device, not an AI/ML product.

To reiterate, the provided text does not contain any information about:

  1. Acceptance criteria or reported device performance for AI/ML metrics.
  2. Sample sizes for test sets or data provenance (as it's not an AI/ML study).
  3. Number and qualifications of experts for ground truth establishment.
  4. Adjudication methods.
  5. MRMC comparative effectiveness studies or effect sizes.
  6. Standalone algorithm performance studies.
  7. Type of ground truth (as it's not a diagnostic AI/ML device).
  8. Sample size for training sets (no AI/ML training is mentioned).
  9. How ground truth for a training set was established.
