Intended Use

The Sterile Hypodermic Syringes for Single Use with Safety Needles is intended for use in the aspiration and injection of fluids for medical purpose. After withdrawal of the needle from the body, the attached needle safety shield can be manually activated to cover the needle immediately after use to minimize risk of accidental needlesticks.

Device Description

The Sterile Hypodermic Syringes for Single Use with Safety Needles is intended for manual and single use only to aspirate and inject of fluids for medical purpose, which consists of piston, barrel, plunger and a hypodermic needle with a safety mechanism. The proposed device is available in a variety combination of syringe volume and needle size.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the regulatory clearance (510(k)) for the "Sterile Hypodermic Syringes for Single Use with Safety Needles" by Sichuan Prius Biotechnology Co., Ltd. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than providing a detailed study report for AI-powered medical devices. Therefore, much of the requested information regarding AI-specific studies (e.g., sample sizes for test/training sets, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC study, standalone performance) is not applicable or present in this given text.

However, I can extract the acceptance criteria and performance data for the non-clinical functional and safety aspects of the device, as well as general information about testing methodologies.

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

The following questions are not applicable as the document describes a traditional medical device (syringes with safety needles) and not an AI/ML-powered device:

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. The testing described is for physical characteristics and biological safety, not a "test set" in the AI/ML context.
  2. 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): Not applicable. This refers to expert review for AI/ML model training/validation.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
  4. 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: Not applicable.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable for an AI context. For physical device testing, "ground truth" is established by the specified ISO/ASTM standards and their associated test methods for measuring properties (e.g., strength, sterility, dimensions).
  7. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

Discussions of differences in technological characteristics Comment #1 – Syringe Volume

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

The proposed device is available in three additional syringe volumes, which are 2ml, 50ml and 100ml. For proposed 2ml and 50ml syringe, these two specifications can be covered by the predicate device. And 100ml syringe is out of the volume range of predicate device. This does not change the intended use and does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. In addition, the syringe performance has been tested and test results demonstrate that the syringe meets the requirements of ISO 7886.

Comment #2- Connector Type

The subject device is available in luer slip and luer lock connectors and luer slip connector is not covered by the predicate device. This does not change the intended use and does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. The luer connector has been tested per ISO 80369-7 and the test results demonstrate that the luer connector meets the requirements of ISO 80369-7.

Comment #3 – Needle Gauge

The subject device has the additional gauge 24G compared to the predicate device, while other gauges can be covered by the predicate device. Additionally, the needle performance has been tested and results demonstrate that the needle meets the requirements of ISO 7864 and ISO 9626.

Comment #4 - Needle Length

The needle length of proposed device is similar as the needle length of predicate device. The proposed needle length can be covered in the range of predicate device. In addition, the needle performance has been tested and the results demonstrate that the needle meets the requirements of ISO 7864 and ISO 9626.

Comment #5— Wall Type

The proposed device is available in thin wall and normal wall. The predicate device also has thin wall and normal wall. There are more needle gauges for the predicate device than for the proposed device under the same wall type, and the needle gauges for the proposed device can be covered by the predicate device. In addition, the wall type of proposed devices have been tested and results demonstrate that the needle meets the requirements of ISO 7864 and ISO 9626.
