The Aer-O-Scope Disposable colonoscope is a single use disposable endoscope and cannot be reprocessed.

Device Description

The Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System is a flexible, operator-controlled, colonoscope that provides visualization and therapeutic access to the colon. It is comprised of two major components, the Video Controller and the Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope. The Video Controller contains all components and subsystems required for operation and control of the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System. The Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope includes channels for irrigation, insufflation, lens wash, therapeutic access, and suction. The disposable colonoscope includes an optical imaging head with a CMOS sensor and lenses for visualization with a 200° panoramic omni field of view. All commands are controlled by the operator and regulated through the Video Controller. The Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope is a single use device and cannot be reprocessed. The main material that comes in contact with the patient is polyurethane that is coated with a biocompatible hydrophilic coating. The Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope is biocompatible according to the ISO 10993 harmonized and FDA consensus standard.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the regulatory clearance of a medical device (Aer-O-Scope Colonoscope System) but lacks the specific details required to fully address all aspects of your request regarding acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them. The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a detailed performance study with acceptance criteria.

However, based on the available information, here's an attempt to extract and infer what's possible:

There is no explicit table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance provided in the document. The document states that "GI View Ltd. conducted packaging and shelf-life testing which met all the criteria," "Biocompatibility tests were performed and met all the required criteria," "EMC and Electrical safety were tested... and found compliant with the applicable standards," and "Bench tests to measure the safety and effectiveness of device components were performed. Bench tests to measure optical parameters and safety such as photobiological safety, resolution and geometric distortion were performed. In all instances the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System functioned as intended and met the individual test specifications and/or FDA consensus standards." For clinical performance, it states, "The data demonstrated that the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System (with a wider field of view (200°) compared to the predicate) successfully allows cecal intubation in the intended use population and provides therapeutic access to the lower gastrointestinal tract for screening, diagnostic and surveillance endoscopy (colonoscopy) as the predicate devices."

Given the information, a table like the one requested cannot be constructed precisely as acceptance criteria values are not explicitly stated for each performance aspect, nor are the quantitative results. The text only confirms that criteria were "met" or "functioned as intended."

Here's an attempt to answer the other questions based on the provided text:

  • 1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
    As mentioned above, an explicit table is not provided. The document generally states that "all criteria were met" for various tests.

    Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from text)Reported Device Performance (Summary from text)
    Packaging and Shelf-life standardsMet all the criteria
    Biocompatibility standardsMet all the required criteria
    EMC and Electrical safety standardsFound compliant with the applicable standards
    Device component safety & effectivenessFunctioned as intended; met individual test specifications
    Optical parameters (photobiological safety, resolution, geometric distortion)Functioned as intended; met individual test specifications and/or FDA consensus standards
    Cecal Intubation Success RateSuccessfully allows cecal intubation
    Therapeutic Access to lower GI tractProvides therapeutic access to the lower gastrointestinal tract for screening, diagnostic, and surveillance endoscopy
    Overall Safety and Efficacy (in vivo)Demonstrated overall safety and efficacy
  • 2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Test Set Sample Size: The document mentions "Pre-clinical in vivo tests in swine" and a "clinical investigation" in humans.
      • For the clinical investigation, the number of human subjects is not specified.
      • For the in vivo tests, the number of swine is not specified.
    • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the clinical investigation data. Given the "Owner" (GI View Ltd.) is based in "Ramat Gan, Israel," it implies the clinical study could have been conducted in Israel or elsewhere, but this is not confirmed. The document refers to "GI View Ltd. conducted" studies.
    • Retrospective or Prospective: The clinical investigation is described as being performed "to demonstrate safety and effectiveness," which strongly suggests a prospective study.
  • 3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
    This information is not provided in the document. The text does not elaborate on how ground truth was established for "cecal intubation" or "therapeutic access" during the clinical or pre-clinical studies.

  • 4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
    This information is not provided in the document.

  • 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:
    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study involving human readers with and without AI assistance is not mentioned. The document focuses on the device's performance for visualization and therapeutic access, primarily in comparison to a predicate device's functionality, not on AI assistance for human readers.

  • 6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
    This device is an endoscope system (hardware) for visualization and access, not a standalone AI algorithm. Therefore, the concept of "standalone (algorithm only)" performance without human-in-the-loop is not applicable to this device's description. The system provides visualization to a human operator.

  • 7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
    This information is not explicitly detailed. For the clinical investigation, "cecal intubation" success and "therapeutic access" would likely be determined by direct observation by the participating endoscopists. The document does not specify if additional ground truth like pathology reports for lesions found or long-term outcomes data were used to evaluate the device's diagnostic or therapeutic efficacy.

  • 8. The sample size for the training set:
    This device is a hardware system, not an AI model that requires a "training set" in the traditional machine learning sense. Therefore, the concept of a "training set" sample size is not applicable.

  • 9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
    As above, this question is not applicable as the device is not an AI model with a training set.

Common Name: Colonoscope

Classification Name: Endoscope and accessories, 21 CFR 876.1500

Device Description, 21 CFR 807.92(a)(4)

The Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System is a flexible, operator-controlled, colonoscope that provides visualization and therapeutic access to the colon. It is comprised of two major components, the Video Controller and the Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope. The Video Controller contains all components and subsystems required for operation and control of the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System. The Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope includes channels for irrigation, insufflation, lens wash, therapeutic access, and suction. The disposable colonoscope includes an optical imaging head with a CMOS sensor and lenses for visualization with a 200° panoramic omni field of view. All commands are controlled by the operator and regulated through the Video Controller.

The Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope is a single use device and cannot be reprocessed. The main material that comes in contact with the patient is polyurethane that is coated with a biocompatible hydrophilic coating. The Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope is biocompatible according to the ISO 10993 harmonized and FDA consensus standard.

Predicate Comparison, 21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)

The main technological and operational features of the Aer-O-Scope 3 (other than the visualization system) are the same as those of the Evis Exera II 180 System (Evis Exera II Video System Center Olympus CV-180 ("CV-180") & Evis Exera II Colonovideoscope Olympus CF type H180AL ("CF H180AL")). The only differences between the Aer-O-Scope 3 and the predicate relate to visualization (including a CMOS chip and LED lighting) and disposability and the hydrophilic coating, features that are also present in the Aer-O-Scope Colonoscope System 2 (reference device). GI View submitted data from the Aer-O-Scope 2 Colonoscope System for the visualization, hydrophilic coating & disposability features, as well as performance testing to show that the technological differences between the Aer-O-Scope 3 and the predicate do not affect the substantial equivalence determination.

The Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System has a subset of the indicated uses and associated technological and operational characteristics of the predicate Olympus Evis Exera II 180 System (the indication for the Olympus device also includes surgery). Both devices are indicated for adult populations who may undergo colonoscopy in physicians' clinics, ambulatory surqical centers, and hospital settings.

{5}------------------------------------------------

While operationally the same as the Olympus predicate device, the technology differs in that the Aer-O-Scope 3 uses a CMOS chip and LED lighting and the Olympus predicate uses a CCD chip and fiber optic lighting.

Like the predicate, the Aer-O-Scope 3 Disposable Colonoscope is a long flexible endoscope with optics at the deflectable tip of the device and openings for irrigation, insufflation, and suction. The Aer-O-Scope 3's Video Controller supplies and controls the Aer-O-Scope Disposable Colonoscope according to user command inputs via a touchpad (on the Video Controller) or buttons on the colonoscope handle, similar to the Olympus predicate. The distal tip deflection of both the device subject to this Premarket Notification and the predicate are controlled by angulation knobs on the scope handles. The Aer-O-Scope 3 utilizes a CMOS image sensor and LEDs incorporated directly into the distal tip of the Aer-O-Scope Disposable Colonoscope; whereas the CCD image sensor and Xenon light source of the Olympus predicate are external, and signals are carried over fiber optics. Like the predicate, the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System is equipped with insufflation, iens wash and suction.

Hydrophilic coating and predefined variable stiffness along the insertion tube are incorporated into the Aer-O-Scope 3 to facilitate colonic intubation. The Olympus CF H180AL Colonoscope has an operator controlled variable stiffness mechanism to facilitate colonic intubation. While the mechanisms for colonic intubation facilitation are different, both methods have shown to be successful for streamlining colonic intubation. These differences do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the Aer-O-Scope 3 compared to the predicate.

The data demonstrated that the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System (with a wider field of view (200°) compared to the predicate) successfully allows cecal intubation in the intended use population and provides therapeutic access to the lower gastrointestinal tract for screening, diagnostic and surveillance endoscopy (colonoscopy) as the predicate devices.

Summary, 21 CFR 807.92(b)(3):

The bench tests included studies related to forces, biocompatibility, optical performance and constructive and electrical safety. The tests demonstrated that the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System performed as expected and met the specifications/FDA consensus standards requirements. As such, the bench tests demonstrated the Aer-O-Scope 3 performed as well as the predicate devices. The data also demonstrated that the Aer-O-Scope 3 Colonoscope System successfully provided a wider field of view (200°) as well as therapeutic access to the lower gastrointestinal tract for screening, diagnostic and surveillance endoscopy as other colonoscopes.
