The Niti-S Biliary Slim M Stent is indicated for the palliation of malignant strictures in the biliary tree.
The Niti-S Biliary Slim M Stent consists of the implantable metallic stent and introducer system. The stent is made of Nitinol wire. It is a flexible, fine mesh tubular prosthesis and it has 7 radiopaque markers; 3 in each end 1 in the center. It has a diameter of 6 or 8 mm and the length ranges from 40 to 120mm.
The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA for a medical device called the "Niti-S Biliary Slim M Stent." This type of submission aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving safety and efficacy through extensive clinical trials for novel devices. As such, the document does not describe acceptance criteria for an AI/algorithm-driven device or study details for such a device, but rather for a physical medical device (a stent).
Therefore, I cannot extract the information required by your prompt, which specifically asks for criteria and study details related to an AI/algorithm-driven device like:
- Acceptance criteria and device performance table: The document describes the device, its intended use, and compares its technical characteristics to predicate devices. It does not provide performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or AUC which would be relevant for an AI/algorithm.
- Sample size and data provenance: There is no mention of a test set, training set, or data provenance from patient images, as this is not an AI/algorithm.
- Experts for ground truth and qualifications: Not applicable, as there's no ground truth establishment for an AI.
- Adjudication method: Not applicable.
- MRMC study and effect size: No AI assistance or human reader performance is discussed.
- Standalone performance: No algorithm is being evaluated.
- Type of ground truth: Not applicable.
- Training set sample size: Not applicable.
- Ground truth for training set: Not applicable.
Instead, the document focuses on:
- Bench Testing: Describing physical tests performed on the stent (e.g., Pitting Corrosion Potential, Dimensional Verification, Radial Compression Force) and the delivery system (e.g., Delivery, Deployment, Withdrawal).
- Biocompatibility Testing: Stating that the material is identical to a previously cleared predicate device.
- Electrical Safety and EMC/Software Verification and Validation: Stating "Not applicable" as the device contains no electrical components or software.
- Animal Testing / Clinical Data: Stating "Not applicable" as these were not deemed necessary to establish substantial equivalence for this device.
In summary, the provided text describes the regulatory clearance process for a physical medical device (a stent) under the 510(k) pathway, and therefore does not contain the information requested about acceptance criteria and studies for an AI/algorithm-driven device.

Trade/Device Name: Niti-S Biliary Slim M Stent Regulation Number: 21 CFR§ 876.5010 Regulation Name: Biliary Catheter and Accessories Regulatory Class: II Product Code: FGE Dated: April 7, 2022 Received: April 12, 2022
Dear Matthew Krueger:
We have reviewed your 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 and the limitations described below. 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.
{1}------------------------------------------------
K221071 - Matthew Krueger
The OHT3: Office of GastroRenal, ObGyn, General Hospital and Urology Devices has determined that there is a reasonable likelihood that this device will be used for an intended use not identified in the proposed labeling and that such use could cause harm. Therefore, in accordance with Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act, the following limitation must appear in the Warnings section of the device's labeling:
- The safety and effectiveness of this device for use in the vascular system has not been established.
Furthermore, the indication for biliary use must be prominently displayed in all labeling, including pouch box, and carton labels, instructions for use, and other promotional materials, in close proximity to the trade name, of a similar point size, and in bold print.
Please note that the above labeling limitations are required by Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act. Therefore, a new 510(k) is required before these limitations are modified in any way or removed from the device's labeling.
The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and permits your device to proceed to the market. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification if the limitation statement described above is added to your labeling.
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 statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

§ 876.5010 Biliary catheter and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A biliary catheter and accessories is a tubular flexible device used for temporary or prolonged drainage of the biliary tract, for splinting of the bile duct during healing, or for preventing stricture of the bile duct. This generic type of device may include a bile collecting bag that is attached to the biliary catheter by a connector and fastened to the patient with a strap.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a bile collecting bag or a surgical biliary catheter that does not include a balloon component, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
