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

The document describes a "side-by-side" test against the predicate device. However, the specific sample size for this test set (number of measurements, number of patients) is not provided. The data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is also not explicitly stated. It's implied to be a testing scenario rather than a clinical study on patients, given the wording.

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

The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for this non-clinical, side-by-side comparison test. The comparison was made against the measurements of a cleared predicate device (Cosmed Q-NRG+).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Since the ground truth was established by comparison to a predicate device's measurements in a laboratory setting, there was no expert adjudication method described.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The described testing is a non-clinical side-by-side comparison of device measurements, not a study involving human readers or their improvement with AI assistance.

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

Yes, the described testing is a standalone performance evaluation of the Virtus Metabolic Monitor. It directly compares the device's measurements (V'O2, V'CO2, REE) against those of a predicate device in a controlled setting, without a human-in-the-loop context.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the non-clinical side-by-side test was the measurements provided by the predicate device (Cosmed Q-NRG+). The study aimed to show "acceptable agreement of measurements between the subject device and the predicate device."

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not mention any training set or related sample size. The device calculates metabolic parameters using the standard Weir formula and relies on measured V'O2 and V'CO2. There's no indication of a machine learning-based algorithm requiring a training set in this summary.

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

As no training set is mentioned or implied, the method for establishing its ground truth is not applicable.

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor is portable and is supplied from the built-in battery or from mains, where it is automatically charged.

Indications for Use:

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor is indicated for the measurement of Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) for mechanically ventilated patients, who are non-spontaneous breathing, and who are at least 18 years of age.

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor is intended to be used in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) in professional healthcare facilities only.

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor is for prescription use only.

Technological Characteristics:

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor utilizes the same technological principles as the predicate Cosmed Q-NRG+ device to continuously measure the oxygen uptake V'O2, carbon dioxide production V'CO2, and calculating the Resting Energy Expenditure REE and Respiratory Quotient RQ - both devices utilize the same control and gas sampling methods: microcontroller-driven control of gas analyzers using the side-stream method, calculation of parameters and presentation on a 10.1" color touch screen. The Virtus Metabolic Monitor uses a side-steam flow sensor and a gas sampling line for gas and flow sampling similar to the predicate device.

As summarized above, the Virtus Metabolic Monitor utilizes equivalent technological characteristics and specifications as the cleared predicate device.

Non-Clinical Tests:

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor was laboratory tested to current applicable standards for medical device electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility. The following standards were utilized in compliance testing:

  • Electrical safety testing per IEC 60601-1:2005+AMD1:2012 ●
  • . Electromagnetic compatibility testing per IEC 60601-1-2:2014+A1:2020

The device met acceptance criteria for compliance to the standards.

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

Risk management, risk and hazard analysis was performed to the following standard:

  • Application of risk management to medical devices per ISO 14971:2019 ●
  • Usability evaluation per IEC 62366-1:2015+A1:2020 for professional use .

The device met risk management criteria for acceptability of residual risks.

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor embedded software was developed in accordance with FDA quidelines for moderate level of concern devices. The software lifecycle process was evaluated to meet:

  • Medical device software lifecycle process per IEC 62304:2006+A1:2015 as per . internal SW development QMS-procedure under ISO13485:2016
  • Device software was verified to requirements and validated to meet the specified . intended use.

The disposable Virtus Flow Sensor in its final finished form is identical to the EZ-Flow Sensor cleared in K093080. A materials certification was provided by TreyMed Inc to support this.

The disposable Virtus Flow Sensor met acceptance criteria for biocompatibility.

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor was evaluated for one year shelf-life and five years expected lifetime and met acceptance criteria for performance after testing.

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor was evaluated for usability and met acceptance criteria for performance after testing.

The Virtus Metabolic Monitor was tested side-by-side against the predicate device with respect to measure the oxygen uptake V'O2, carbon dioxide production V'CO2 and Resting Energy Expenditure REE. The test showed acceptable agreement of measurements between the subject device and the predicate device over the entire range from 100 – 1000 ml/min for both V'O2 and V'CO2 and hence the REE are equally close. It further showed that the subject device is capable of measuring V'O2 and V'CO2 up to 1000 ml/min and calculating the corresponding value of 7200kcal/day for REE. The side-by-side test met acceptance criteria for measurement comparison and accuracy.

In summary, the Virtus Metabolic Monitor met acceptance criteria for conformance to applicable standards, performance, biocompatibility and lifetime. Residual risks met criteria for acceptability for the intended use.

Conclusions: The Virtus Metabolic Monitor is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
