2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample Size:
- For Mechanical Performance Testing: "Three lots of subject devices, SKORE Male Natural Rubber Latex Condoms" were tested.
- For Biocompatibility and Shelf Life: The sample sizes are not explicitly stated, but the tests were performed on "SKORE Male Natural Rubber Latex Condoms."
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). The testing seems to be conducted by the manufacturer, TTK Healthcare Ltd., which is based in India. The studies are prospective in nature, as they are conducted to demonstrate compliance of the device before market entry.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
This information is not applicable to the evaluation of condoms. The ground truth for condom performance is established through adherence to recognized international and national standards (e.g., ISO 4074, ASTM D3492) and laboratory testing, rather than expert consensus on interpretive data.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
Not applicable. The tests are objective and quantitative, based on physical and chemical properties measured against established standards. There is no subjective interpretation requiring adjudication.
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
Not applicable. This device is a medical product (condom), not an AI-based diagnostic or assistive technology for human readers.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is not an algorithm-based device. Performance is determined through physical and biological testing.
7. The type of ground truth used
The ground truth used for this device is based on established international and national standards (ISO 4074:2015, ASTM D3492-16, ISO 10993 series, 21 CFR 801.435) for material properties (natural rubber latex), physical integrity (air burst pressure/volume), dimensions, biocompatibility, and shelf-life.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This device does not involve a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

Substantial Equivalence Table:
{6}------------------------------------------------
{7}------------------------------------------------
The subject and predicate device have similar indications for use and have the same intended use. The technological characteristics of the subject device and predicate device are similar in that they are natural rubber latex-based, are lubricated with silicone, have the same shelf-life duration, and for the SKORE Benzocaine Condoms, they have the same amount of benzocaine. The subject and predicate devices have different technological characteristics, including different lubricant quantities, dimensions, and specifications. However, the different technological characteristics of the subject devices do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.
PERFORMANCE TESTING
Biocompatibility:
Biocompatibility testing was performed on the SKORE Male Natural Rubber Latex Condoms in accordance with ISO 10993-1: Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices.
| Test Performed | Standard |
|---|---|
| Acute Systemic Toxicity Reactivity | ISO 10993-11:2017 |
| In vitro Cytotoxicity | ISO 10993-5:2009 |
| Skin Sensitization | ISO 10993-10:2021 |
| Vaginal Irritation Test | ISO 10993-23:2021 |
The results of demonstrate that the subject devices are biocompatible.
{8}------------------------------------------------
Mechanical Performance Testing:
Three lots of subject devices, SKORE Male Natural Rubber Latex Condoms were tested at baseline and met specifications of ISO 4074:2015 - Natural rubber latex male condoms -Requirements and test methods and ASTM D3492-16- Standard Specification for Rubber Contraceptives
The results demonstrate that the subject devices meet the standard specifications.
Shelf Life:
Shelf-life testing was conducted per ISO 4074:201521 and 21 CFR 801.435. The accelerated (7 days at 70°c, 90 days at 40-50°c) and real-time stability (5 Years at 28°C to 35° C) of the SKORE Male Natural Rubber Latex Condoms supports a shelf-life of five years as per the requirements.
CONCLUSION
The results of the performance testing described above demonstrate that the SKORE Male Natural Rubber Latex Condoms are as safe and effective as the predicate device and supports a determination of substantial equivalence.
§ 884.5300 Condom.

The device may also be used to collect semen to aid in the diagnosis of infertility.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for condoms made of materials other than natural rubber latex, including natural membrane (skin) or synthetic.(2) Class II (special controls) for natural rubber latex condoms. The guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Labeling for Natural Rubber Latex Condoms Classified Under 21 CFR 884.5300” will serve as the special control.
