The Veloxion System provides bipolar resection and coagulation of prostate adenomas, it distends the cavity by filling with saline and it provides pressure control of the cavity to facilitate viewing with the integrated Resectoscope.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Veloxion System, a medical device used for prostate adenoma resection. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device, rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria based on a clinical study of its diagnostic or therapeutic efficacy.

Therefore, many of the requested details regarding acceptance criteria for device performance (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, or effect size of human reader improvement with AI) and a study proving the device meets these criteria are not present in this regulatory submission document. This document is instead a technical comparison and non-clinical testing summary to assert device safety and effectiveness.

However, I can extract information related to the technical specifications and performance testing conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence, which serves as the "acceptance criteria" for this type of regulatory submission.

Here's the closest interpretation of your request based on the provided text:

Study Proving the Device Meets the Acceptance Criteria:

The document describes non-clinical testing rather than a traditional clinical study with patient outcomes or reader performance data. The "study" here refers to a battery of engineering and bench tests designed to demonstrate that the small changes in the new Veloxion System (subject device) do not alter its safety or effectiveness compared to the previously cleared Veloxion System (predicate device).

Here's a breakdown of details relevant to your questions, adapted to the context of this 510(k) submission:

  1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • The document does not specify sample sizes for individual non-clinical tests (e.g., number of units tested for durability, or number of simulated uses). This information is typically detailed in the full test reports, not summarized in the 510(k) summary letter.
    • Data Provenance: The data is generated from non-clinical performance testing conducted by the manufacturer, Corinth MedTech, Inc. The location of the testing is not specified, but it would typically be conducted at the manufacturer's facilities or a qualified testing lab. The nature is retrospective in the sense that these tests were completed before the 510(k) submission, and reported as final results. There is no mention of data from human subjects or real-world clinical use.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • This question is not applicable in the context of this 510(k) submission. The "ground truth" for this device's regulatory pathway is established through engineering specifications, validated test methods, and comparison to a predicate device's known performance. There were no human readers or expert consensus required to establish a "ground truth" for diagnostic or analytical performance, as this is not a diagnostic AI device. The tests, like functional testing, biocompatibility, electrical safety, etc., have well-defined pass/fail criteria based on standards and engineering principles.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • This is not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are used in clinical studies, particularly for diagnostic imaging or AI devices, where human expert disagreement needs a resolution mechanism for ground truth. In non-clinical performance testing, the results are typically quantitative measurements against predefined specifications, or qualitative observations per a test protocol, which do not usually require a human "adjudication" process like a clinical reading study.
  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:

    • This is not applicable. The Veloxion System is an electrosurgical device for tissue resection, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. No MRMC study or AI assistance evaluation was conducted or is relevant for this type of device.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:

    • This is not applicable. This device is a surgical instrument system, not an AI algorithm. Its function relies on mechanical, electrical, and fluidic principles controlled by the user, not a standalone AI algorithm.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

    • For this device, the "ground truth" for meeting regulatory requirements is primarily based on:
      • Engineering specifications and standards: e.g., electrical safety standards (IEC 60601 series), biocompatibility standards (ISO 10993), sterility standards (ISO 11135), etc.
      • Defined functional performance criteria: for aspects like flow rates, pressure control, temperature limits, tissue cutting/coagulation performance (demonstrated in simulated use), and durability.
      • Comparison to Predicate Device: The ultimate "ground truth" for a 510(k) relies on demonstrating that the new device is "substantially equivalent" to a legally marketed predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness, based on similar technological characteristics and comparable performance. Any differences (like the cut mode flow rate) must be shown not to raise new questions of safety or effectiveness, which was addressed via performance testing.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • This is not applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of this device, as it is not an AI/machine learning product.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • This is not applicable for the same reason as above. There is no training set mentioned in this context.

The predicate device is the system comprised of the following legally marketed devices as used in combination to which substantial equivalence is claimed: Primary Predicate: Veloxion System (cleared per K190099)

Predicate has not been a subject of a design related recall.

IV. Device Description

The Veloxion System consists of the following components:

  • · Veloxion Controller (with Integrated Fluid Control and video)
    • o Footswitch
  • Veloxion Resectoscope
  • Veloxion Fluid Control Set
  • · Veloxion Roll Stand

The Veloxion System also includes the following Class I accessories for handling of waste collected from the patient (these items only handle waste after it is already outside the patient), which includes:

  • Waste Management Tubing: To provide a conduit for transfer of aspirated fluids and tissue from the patient and from under the patient's buttocks drape
  • · Tissue Catch: For collection of gross resected tissue pieces for pathology.

{4}------------------------------------------------

The Veloxion System provides bipolar resection and coagulation of prostate adenomas, it distends the cavity by filling with saline and it provides pressure control of the cavity to facilitate viewing with the integrated Resectoscope. The components of Veloxion System perform the following functions:

  • The Veloxion Controller provides bipolar radiofrequency outputs (for cut and coagulation) and fluid/pressure control through the use of two integrated peristaltic pumps, provides the user interface to establish the desired set pressure, monitors intracavitary pressure using dual independent pressure sensors mechanically connected to the Veloxion Fluid Control Set irrigation lumen. The software then monitors, controls and notifies the user when the limits are reached or when specific conditions are met. Furthermore, the controller provides control of the camera, light, display image to a commercially available monitor, stores image and video selected by the user from a session, and provides a USB connection for a USB Stick download of stored media by the user.
  • The Veloxion Resectoscope is a sterile single use hand held bipolar radiofrequency device configured to provide camera and light for visualization of the anatomy for the resection of tissue and aspiration of resected chips. Fluid inflow and aspiration of the resected chips are controlled by the Controller's peristaltic pumps.
  • The Veloxion Fluid Control Set is a sterile single use device that provides conduits for fluid inflow, aspiration of resected tissue and fluids and a diaphragm (pressure membrane) that provides mechanism for the Controller to measure cavity pressure (through the irrigation lumen) during the procedure thereby facilitating the insufflation function.
  • The Veloxion Roll Stand enables monitoring of saline remaining in the saline bag.
