AI/ML Overview

The provided text does not contain detailed information about the acceptance criteria and study proving the device meets those criteria in a format that allows for a direct population of all the requested fields. The document primarily focuses on FDA 510(k) clearance, asserting substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

Here's an attempt to extract and infer information based on the text:

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document broadly states that "All specifications for Exo Iris have been verified and validated... and the results demonstrated that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met." However, it does not provide a specific table of acceptance criteria with corresponding performance results. Instead, it lists the standards against which testing was conducted.

Acceptance Criteria Category (Inferred from standards)Reported Device Performance (General Statement)
Electrical Safety (per ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1)Compliant with applicable electrical safety standards
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) (per IEC 60601-1-2, FCC Part 15)Compliant with applicable EMC standards
Ultrasound Safety and Performance (per IEC 60601-2-37, NEMA UD-2)Meets safety and performance requirements for ultrasonic medical diagnostic and monitoring equipment; Meets standard for acoustic output measurement
Biocompatibility (per ISO 10993)Compliant with ISO 10993
Software Life Cycle Processes (per IEC 62304)Compliant with Medical Device Software - Software Life Cycle Processes
Design Control and Risk Mitigation (per 21 CFR Part 820.30, ISO 14971)All design verification and validation activities performed; predetermined acceptance criteria met; all risk mitigations satisfactorily verified and validated.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document explicitly states: "No human clinical data is provided to support substantial equivalence."
Therefore, there is no information on a specific "test set" in terms of patient data. The performance evaluations were primarily through bench testing against established standards.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

Not applicable, as no human clinical data (and thus no ground truth derived from it) was used for substantial equivalence.

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

Not applicable, as no human clinical data (and thus no adjudication of ground truth) was used for substantial equivalence.

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 study was done, as the submission explicitly states "No human clinical data is provided to support substantial equivalence." The device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool in the context of this submission that would require demonstrating an improvement in human reader performance.

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

This refers to the device itself as a diagnostic ultrasound system. Its performance evaluation was done through bench testing to ensure it meets technical standards, not as an algorithm performing standalone diagnostics on patient cases.

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

The "ground truth" for the device's performance is derived from its ability to meet the technical specifications and requirements defined by the various industry standards mentioned (e.g., electrical safety, acoustic output, software quality). There is no "ground truth" related to disease detection or diagnosis established through expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in this submission.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. The document describes a diagnostic ultrasound system, not an AI/ML device that requires a training set of data.

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

Not applicable, as no training set was used.
