Intended Use

ImPACT is intended for use as a computer-based neurocogntive test battery to aid in the assessment and management of concussion.

ImPACT is a neurocognitive test battery that provides healthcare professionals with objective measure of neurocognitive functioning as an assessment aid and in the management of concussion in individuals ages 12-80.

Device Description

ImPACT® (Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing) is a computer-based neurocognitive test battery that allows healthcare professionals to conduct a series of tests on individuals to gather data related to the neurocognitive functioning of the test subject. This test battery measures various aspects of neurocognitive functioning including reaction time, memory, attention, spatial processing speed, and records symptoms of a test subject. ImPACT Version 4 is similar to the paper-and-pencil neuropsychological tests that have long been used by psychologists to evaluate cognition, and memory related to a wide variety of disabilities.

The device is not intended to provide a direct diagnosis or a return-to-activity recommendation, it does not directly manage or provide any treatment recommendations, and any interpretation of the results should be made only by qualified healthcare professional. The neurocognitive assessment represents only one aspect of assisting healthcare professionals in evaluating and managing individuals with cognitive function impairment related to TBI (concussion).

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them, based on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (ImPACT Version 4, K202485) rather than explicitly listing quantitative acceptance criteria for each neurocognitive measure. However, the core of the performance demonstration rests on the establishment of a normative database for iPad use and test-retest reliability consistent with previous versions.

Implied Acceptance Criteria and Performance:

Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
1. Normative Database for iPad: The device must establish a reliable and representative normative database for performance on an iPad, allowing for accurate interpretation of test results compared to a healthy population.A prospective clinical investigation was conducted to collect data for standardization and to construct the normative database for tests performed on an iPad. The normative sample included 1495 subjects ages 12-59 (670 males, 825 females). Data was collected prospectively from 4 different sites across the US in 2022 and 2023. These sites were approved by two ethics boards (Advarra IRB Services and St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia). Data collection occurred in a mixed environment (supervised and unsupervised testing) to approximate real-world conditions. All subjects met inclusion criteria consistent with previous normative data creation (age 12-59, primary English speaking, no concussion in past 6 months, no known physical/neurological/behavioral/psychological impairment affecting test, corrected hearing/vision impairments, signed IRB consent).
2. Test-retest Reliability (iPad): The neurocognitive measures on the iPad must demonstrate high consistency over time, meaning a subject's scores should be similar if they take the test multiple times within a reasonable period, assuming no change in their cognitive state.Test-retest reliability was calculated in a sample of 116 individuals ages 12-59 who were part of the standardization sample. They completed an initial baseline assessment on an iPad and a second baseline within 7-21 days (mean=12.7 days, SD=4.3 days). Pearson's Product-Moment Correlation coefficients and Intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) were calculated for ImPACT Composite Scores and Two Factor Scores. The reported Pearson's correlations and ICCs were "consistent with those from the test-retest coefficients obtained using Mouse and Trackpad inputs of the predicate device." This indicates that the iPad version maintains the reliability characteristics of the established predicate device.
3. Safety and Effectiveness (Overall Equivalence): The device modifications (specifically the iPad platform and related software for touchscreen input and normative data) must not adversely affect the safety or effectiveness for its intended use, nor raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.The document states: "The differences between the two devices described above do not affect the safety or effectiveness of ImPACT Version 4.1 for its intended use and do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness, which was demonstrated through risk management and performance testing including software verification and validation, clinical investigations and non-clinical assessments." Risk management activities were conducted per ISO 14971, assuring risks are controlled and the new device has the same safety and risk profile as the predicate. Software verification and validation (IEC 62304, FDA Guidance "General Principles of Software Validation") included code reviews, design reviews, automation/manual testing, and regression testing, with all tests meeting acceptance criteria.

Detailed Study Information:

  1. Sample Size and Data Provenance:

    • Test Set (Normative Data):
      • Sample Size: 1495 subjects.
      • Data Provenance: Prospectively collected from 4 different sites across the US in 2022 and 2023.
      • Type: Prospective.
    • Test Set (Test-retest Reliability):
      • Sample Size: 116 individuals, a subset of the normative sample.
      • Data Provenance: Prospectively collected from the same US sites as the normative data, in 2022 and 2023.
      • Type: Prospective.
  2. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth:

    • The document does not explicitly state the number or qualifications of experts used to establish a "ground truth" in the traditional sense of a diagnostic consensus.
    • For the normative and test-retest studies, the "ground truth" is primarily based on the self-reported health status of the participants (e.g., "not suffering from a concussion or being treated for a concussion in the past 6 months," "no known physical, neurological, behavioral or psychological impairment"). The inclusion criteria, which participants had to meet, effectively defined the "healthy" or "normal" population against which the device's performance is normed.
    • Clinical experts were part of the "cross-functional team" involved in "Walkthroughs and design reviews of mock-ups and prototypes" during software verification, but not explicitly for ground truth establishment for the clinical study data itself.
  3. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    • The document does not describe an adjudication method for the clinical study data. The studies focused on collecting representative data from healthy individuals to establish norms and assess reliability, rather than evaluating the device's diagnostic accuracy against a separate, adjudicated clinical diagnosis.
  4. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

    • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not performed. This device is a neurocognitive test battery, not an imaging AI diagnostic aid meant to be used by multiple readers on the same cases. The "human-in-the-loop" aspect is not about human readers interpreting AI output, but rather healthcare professionals using the device's objective measures to aid in assessment and management.
  5. Standalone Performance:

    • The device ImPACT is a "computer-based neurocognitive test battery." The performance described (normative data collection, test-retest reliability) is inherently the "algorithm only" performance, where the "algorithm" refers to the test battery itself and its scoring methodology. The device provides "objective measure of neurocognitive functioning," which is its standalone output. The interpretation of these results is then done by a qualified healthcare professional.
    • So, yes, a standalone performance assessment was done in the form of normative data collection and test-retest reliability, demonstrating the device's intrinsic ability to measure cognitive function consistently in an uninjured population.
  6. Type of Ground Truth Used:

    • The primary ground truth for the normative database was the self-reported clinical status and inclusion/exclusion criteria of the participants, aiming for a "healthy" or "uninjured" cognitive state. This serves as the reference for "normal" cognitive functioning.
    • For the test-retest reliability, the implicit ground truth is that the cognitive state of the healthy individuals should not have changed significantly between the two tests, allowing for an evaluation of the device's consistency.
  7. Sample Size for the Training Set:

    • The document does not explicitly describe a separate "training set" for an AI or machine learning model in the context of this 510(k) submission.
    • The term "normative database" sometimes functions similarly to a reference or training set in that it establishes what "normal" looks like. In this case, the 1495 subjects for the normative database building represent the data used to define the expected range of performance.
    • The "training" of the neurocognitive test itself, being a standardized battery, is more akin to its initial development and validation stages prior to the specific modifications addressed in this 510(k). The current submission focuses on adapting an existing, validated test to a new platform (iPad) and updating its normative reference.
  8. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

    • As mentioned above, if the normative database is considered the "training set" for defining normal performance, its "ground truth" was established by prospectively enrolling individuals who met strict inclusion criteria indicating they were healthy, English-speaking, not suffering from or recently treated for a concussion, and without other known neurological/physical impairments that would affect test performance. This was overseen by ethics boards and involved multiple US sites.

Summary of Performance Testing:

Software Verification and Validation.

lmPACT Version 4 software was developed, validated, and documented in accordance with IEC 62304 and FDA Guidance "General Principles of Software Validation." Software verification activities including code reviews, design reviews, evaluations, analyses, traceability assessment, and manual testing were performed in accordance with standards and guidance documents to demonstrate device performance and functionality. All tests met the required acceptance criteria:

  • Code reviews: peer review of all modified code performed by software developers.
  • . Walkthroughs and design reviews of mock-ups and prototypes by a cross-functional team including Developers, Quality Assurance, Regulatory Affairs function, Clinical experts, Company Management, and other stakeholders.
  • Software Verification and Validation testing including automated and manual testing.
  • Regression Testing: Comprehensive end testing of the test battery to verify that the modifications ● did not affect the existing functionality.

Risk Management:

Risk Management activities were conducted in accordance on ISO 14971 assure that all risk related to use of computerized neurocognitive test, including use related risks and cybersecurity risks, are appropriately controlled. All control measures were verified and found to be effective. All individual risk is acceptable. The new device has the same safety characteristics as the Predicate Device and same risk profile.

Clinical Data:

The 510(k) included the results of clinical studies. The results of these studies demonstrate the New Device provides a reliable measure of cognitive function to aid in assessment and management of concussion and is therefore substantially equivalent to the Predicate Device.

{6}------------------------------------------------

To support the test administration on iPad and to provide a normative database, a prospective clinical investigation was conducted to collect data to: (i) standardize the test and construct the normative database for tests performed on iPad; and (ii) demonstrate test-retest reliability.

i. Standardization and Normative sample

The normative sample 1495 subjects ages 12-59 (670 males, 825 females) was collected prospectively from 4 different sites with study participants across the US. Data collection took place in 2022 and 2023. The sites were approved to collected data by two ethics boards, Advarra IRB Services (for supervised testing) and St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia (for unsupervised remote testing). All subjects met theappropriate inclusion criteria, which are the same as those used for creating normative tables for the mouse and trackpad in the predicate device. Data for the new sample was conducted in mixed environment including supervised and unsupervised testing to best approximate the real-world performance.

All subjects had to meet the following inclusion criteria to be eligible: (i) test administered on iPad; (ii) age: 12-59; (iii) primary English speaking or fluent in English; (iv) not suffering from a concussion or being treated for a concussion in the past 6 months; (v) no known physical, neurological, behavioral or psychological impairment that would affect their ability to perform the test; (vi) hearing or vision impairments that have been corrected outside of normal limits (e.g. prescription glasses, hearing aid), and (vii) a signed IRB approved consent form.

ii. Test-retest Reliability

Over the years, there have been a sizeable body of literature that has documented the reliability of ImPACT. In general, ImPACT has been found to be highly reliable across time. As the items of the test and the six modules have not changed, this literature is relevant to this version of ImPACT as well as all previous version (predicates). Summary of these studies is provided in the device labeling.

The test-retest reliability was also calculated in a sample of participants using the iPad version of the test. Test takers were 116 individuals ages 12-59 from the standardization sample who completed an initial baseline assessment using an iPad, and a second baseline with a between test interval ranging of 7 to 21 days (mean=12.7 days) SD=4.3 days). Test-takers were 40 males (34.5%, mean age 26.6, SD=14.2 years) and 76 females (65.5%, mean age 28.9, SD=14.4 years), with no significant age difference between based on gender (p=.40). Test-retest reliability was calculated Pearson's Product-Moment Correlation coefficients as well as intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) for the ImPACT Composite Scores as well as Two Factor Scores. Pearson's correlations and ICCs are consistent with those from the test-retest coefficients obtained using Mouse and Trackpad inputs of the predicate device.

Substantial Equivalence Conclusion:

The differences between the two devices described above do not affect the safety or effectiveness of ImPACT Version 4.1 for its intended use and do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness, which was demonstrated through risk management and performance testing including software verification and validation, clinical investigations and non-clinical assessments. Therefore, ImPACT Version 4.1 is substantially equivalent to the Predicate Device.
