Intended Use

The SYSTEM 1E Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is intended for liquid chemical sterilization of cleaned, immersible, and reusable critical and semi-critical heat-sensitive medical devices in healthcare facilities.

The SYSTEM 1E Processor dilutes the S40 Sterilant Concentrate to its use dilution (>1820 mg/L peracetic acid), liquid chemically sterilizes the load during a controlled 6-minute exposure at 45.5 to 60°C, and rinses the load with extensively treated* potable water. After completion of a cycle, critical devices should be used immediately; semi-critical devices should be used immediately or may be handled and stored in a manner similar to that of high level disinfected endoscopes. Critical devices not used immediately should be processed again before use.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document describes the STERIS SYSTEM 1E, SYSTEM 1 endo Model P6800, and SYSTEM 1 endo Model P6900 Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing Systems. This submission is for modifications related to the obsolescence and replacement of a compressor and an upper lid seal. The document asserts that these modified devices are substantially equivalent to their predicate device (K211607).

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

TestAcceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Performance testing with replacement compressorThe modification does not affect the performance of the device.Pass
Performance testing with replacement upper lid sealThe modification does not affect the performance of the device.Pass
Material Compatibility of upper lid sealThe upper lid seal maintains integrity after multiple Liquid Chemical Sterilization and Diagnostic Cycles in accordance with methods disclosed in K131078.Pass
Biocompatibility of upper lid sealThe upper lid seal meets the acceptance criteria for cytotoxicity in ISO 10993-5, Annex A in accordance with methods disclosed in K090036.Pass

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

The document does not explicitly state the sample size for the non-clinical testing performed. It refers to "multiple Liquid Chemical Sterilization and Diagnostic Cycles" for the material compatibility test but does not quantify "multiple". Similarly, for performance testing, it simply states "the modification does not affect the performance," without detailing the number of test cycles or units involved.

The provenance of the data is not explicitly stated beyond being "non-clinical testing" conducted by STERIS Corporation for their updated devices. It is an internal company study for regulatory submission.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications:

The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for this non-clinical testing. The acceptance criteria for performance are based on the device maintaining its original performance and the specific technical standards for material compatibility and biocompatibility (ISO 10993-5, K131078, K090036). These are objective measurements rather than expert interpretations.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

An adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) is not applicable or mentioned as the testing is non-clinical performance and material characterization, yielding objective "Pass/Fail" results against predefined criteria.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

A Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not performed as this device is a liquid chemical sterilant processing system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging tool involving human interpretation. Therefore, there's no "effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance" to report.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study:

A standalone performance study, in the context of AI, was not performed, nor is it applicable. The device is an automated chemical sterilization system; its performance is independently measured against specified physical and chemical parameters, not an algorithm's output. The "algorithm" here refers to the system's software controlling the sterilization cycle. The testing verifies the system's ability to maintain these controlled conditions.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

The ground truth for the non-clinical testing is based on objective measurements and adherence to established industry standards and previous regulatory clearances.

  • Performance: The device must continue to function as intended, not being adversely affected by component changes.
  • Material Compatibility: Integrity after multiple cycles, referencing K131078.
  • Biocompatibility: Cytotoxicity evaluation per ISO 10993-5, Annex A, referencing K090036.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

The concept of a "training set" is not applicable here as this is not a machine learning or artificial intelligence device. The device's operation is deterministic based on its hardware and programmed cycles, not learned from data.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

As there is no training set for this type of device, this question is not applicable.

2. Predicate Device

SYSTEM 1endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System, Model P6800, K211607

Description of Device 3.

The SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is a liquid chemical sterilization system. utilizing peracetic acid to process totally immersible semi-critical medical devices and their accessories. The system consists of the SYSTEM 1 endo Processor and S40 Sterilant Concentrate, interchangeable Processing Trays/Containers, and Quick Connects. The current submission is provided to describe modifications for:

  • Obsolescence and replacement of compressor ●
  • Obsolescence and replacement of upper lid seal ●

The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor is an automated, self-contained device that uses S40 Sterilant Concentrate to create and maintain the conditions necessary for liquid chemical sterilization in 6 minutes. Following processing, the liquid chemically sterilized articles are rinsed with 0.2 micron filtered potable water and are ready for use or may be prepared for storage. The processor, which is computer controlled and continually monitored, provides printed documentation of each cycle.

The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor uses only S40 Sterilant Concentrate. Upon loading the single-use cup, the active ingredient in S40 - peracetic acid - is combined with inert ingredients (builders) to form a use dilution which inhibits corrosion of metals, polymers and other materials.

The interchangeable processing trays/containers are made to accommodate a variety of semi-critical instrument types and models. Each container is designed to maintain instruments in position while specific SYSTEM 1 endo Quick Connects, if required, facilitate delivery of the sterilant use-solution and rinse water to internal channels. Table 1 compares the proposed and predicate devices.

{18}------------------------------------------------

4. Intended Use

The SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is intended for liquid chemical sterilization of cleaned, immersible, and reusable semi-critical medical devices and their accessories in healthcare facilities.

The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor dilutes the S40 Sterilant Concentrate to its use dilution (>1820 mg/L peracetic acid), liquid chemically sterilizes the load during a controlled 6-minute exposure at 45.5 to 60°C, and rinses the load with 0.2 micron filtered water.

The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor uses only S40 Sterilant Concentrate to liquid chemically sterilize medical devices.

5. Description of Technological Similarities and Differences

OperatingPrinciples/TechnologyA microprocessor controlled unit with interchangeable processing trays/containers. The processor lid opens to reveal the processing chamber in which the load is placed. Devices with internal lumens are interfaced with the processor using connectors, i.e. Quick Connects. S40 Sterilant is placed in a specialized compartment and when the processor fills with water, it creates the sterilant use dilution from the single use sterilant cup. The processor monitors and controls the use dilution temperature and contact time. The processor automatically rinses the load with 0.2 micron filtered water to remove sterilant residuals.A microprocessor controlled unit with interchangeable processing trays/containers.

(a)
Identification. A liquid chemical sterilant/high level disinfectant is a germicide that is intended for use as the terminal step in processing critical and semicritical medical devices prior to patient use. Critical devices make contact with normally sterile tissue or body spaces during use. Semicritical devices make contact during use with mucous membranes or nonintact skin.(b)
