Intended Use

The pmd clean acne is intended for over-the-counter use to treat mild to moderate inflammatory acne.

Device Description

The pmd clean acne adopts light emitting diodes (LED) in the blue (415nm ± 5nm) spectrum to irradiate on the face to realize its therapeutic effect. The pmd clean acne adopts handheld design, LEDs are contained in the blue light treatment window, and on its reverse side, the soft silicone bristols can be used to clean the face before the blue light treatment. The product is provided with internal battery and it can be charged by external adaptor. To prevent irradiation of LED lights to eyes during the treatment, pmd clean acne is equipped with goggles which blocks light energy from LEDs.

AI/ML Overview

The PMD Clean Acne device (K230490) is intended for over-the-counter use to treat mild to moderate inflammatory acne. Its substantial equivalence was determined based on non-clinical studies and testing, demonstrating compliance with various safety and performance standards.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Feature/TestAcceptance Criteria (Standard Compliance)Reported Device Performance (Compliance)
Electrical SafetyANSI AAMI ES 60601-1: Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performanceComplies with ANSI AAMI ES 60601-1

IEC 60601-2-57: Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 2-57: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of non-laser light source equipment intended for therapeutic, diagnostic, monitoring and cosmetic/aesthetic useComplies with IEC 60601-2-57
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)IEC 60601-1-2: Medical electrical equipment Part 1-2: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral standard: Electromagnetic disturbances - Requirements and testsComplies with IEC 60601-1-2
Photobiological SafetyIEC 62471: Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systemsComplies with IEC 62471
Battery SafetyIEC 62133-2: Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes - Safety requirements for portable sealed secondary cells, and for batteries made from them, for use in portable applications - Part 2: Lithium systemsComplies with IEC 62133-2

ISO 10993-10: Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 10: Tests for skin sensitizationComplies with ISO 10993-10
ISO 10993-23: Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 23: Tests for irritationComplies with ISO 10993-23
Software Verification and ValidationRequirements of the FDA "Guidance for Pre Market Submissions and for Software Contained in Medical Devices"Software verification and validation tests were conducted according to FDA guidance, demonstrating compliance.

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

The document does not specify a "test set" in the context of clinical performance data using human subjects. The device's substantial equivalence determination relies on non-clinical testing against recognized standards. Therefore, there is no mention of a sample size for a test set of human subjects or their data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective).

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

Not applicable as the device's approval is based on non-clinical testing against established engineering and safety standards, not on clinical performance evaluated by experts against a ground truth for a test set of medical conditions.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable, as there was no test set involving human subjects and expert 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. The PMD Clean Acne is a standalone light therapy device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or interpretive tool for human readers.

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

Yes, the regulatory submission primarily relies on standalone non-clinical testing to demonstrate the device's safety and performance characteristics against established technical standards. This includes electrical safety, EMC, photobiological safety, battery safety, and biocompatibility. There is also specific mention of "Software verification and validation test" which would assess the algorithm/software performance independently.

7. The type of ground truth used

The "ground truth" for the non-clinical studies was the established technical and safety standards (e.g., IEC, ISO, ANSI AAMI standards) that the device was required to comply with. For biocompatibility, the ground truth was the standards for cytotoxicity, sensitization, and irritation. For software, the ground truth was the requirements outlined in FDA's guidance document for software in medical devices.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This device does not appear to involve a machine learning or AI model that would require a "training set" of data in the typical sense. The software validation mentioned refers to standard software development and testing practices, not machine learning model training.

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

Not applicable, as no training set for a machine learning model is indicated.
