Intended Use

The Disposable Sphincterotome is indicated for use in the cannulation of the biliary ducts and the transendoscopic sphincterotomy of the Papilla of Vater and/or the Sphincter of Oddi. The device is supplied sterile and intended for single use only.

Device Description

The Disposable Sphincterotome described in this submission are a sterile, single use devices compatible with the working channel of endoscope. The device consists of a long plastic tube with a wire running the length of its interior. A small portion of that wire is exposed at its distal end. The roof of the papilla is opened by passing high-frequency current through the wire, exposing the biliary or pancreatic orifices for selective cannulation. The models with injection can inject contrast medium into the biliary ducts. The main materials of the proposed device include PTFE, ABS, SUS304. Type A, Type B and Type C are included in this submission. The proposed devices are EO sterilized to achieve the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6 and placed in a sterility maintenance package to ensure a shelf life of 3 years.

AI/ML Overview

This looks like a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device. These submissions typically focus on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting detailed clinical study data for novel acceptance criteria.

Based on the provided text, the "acceptance criteria" for the Disposable Sphincterotome are primarily established by its similarity to the predicate device (Hangzhou AGS MedTech Co., Ltd.'s Sphincterotome, K201121) and compliance with relevant consensus standards.

Here's an analysis based on your requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document doesn't explicitly list "acceptance criteria" in the way one might see for a novel AI algorithm or a device with new performance claims. Instead, the performance is demonstrated by showing the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and meets established safety and performance standards.

Acceptance Criteria Category (Implied)Reported Device Performance (vs. Predicate/Standards)
Indications for UseSame as predicate: "The Disposable Sphincterotome is indicated for use in the cannulation of the biliary ducts and the transendoscopic sphincterotomy of the Papilla of Vater and/or the Sphincter of Oddi. The device is supplied sterile and intended for single use only."
Product CodeSame as predicate: KNS
Regulation NumberSame as predicate: 878.4300
Regulatory ClassSame as predicate: Class II
SterilitySame as predicate: Supplied sterile, EO sterilized to achieve SAL of 10-6.
Principles of OperationSame as predicate: Uses thermal effect from high-frequency current for incision, Monopolar Radio Frequency Current from an electrosurgical generator.
Injection CapabilitySame as predicate: Can inject Contrast Medium (for models with injection).
PackagingSame as predicate: Single-use EO sterilized pouch with one device per pouch.
BiocompatibilityConform to ISO 10993-1 (Same as predicate).
Sterilization ResidualsConform to ISO 10993-7.
Physical PropertiesPassing results for Appearance and Physical properties bench tests.
Wire Guide DiameterProposed: 0.89mm; Predicate: 0.63mm, 0.89mm. Similar; the proposed device's diameter is within the range of the predicate, and this difference is explicitly stated not to raise safety/effectiveness concerns.
Minimum Accessory ChannelProposed: 2.4mm; Predicate: 2.8mm. Similar; the proposed device has a smaller requirement, which is unlikely to raise safety/effectiveness concerns related to the endoscopic channel.
Working LengthProposed: 2000mm; Predicate: 1800mm. Similar; a longer length may offer more reach but doesn't fundamentally change the device's function or safety as long as it handles appropriately.

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

  • Sample Size for Test Set: The document describes bench testing for physical properties ("Appearance, Physical properties") and compliance with standards (e.g., sterilization, biocompatibility). It does not specify the exact number of units tested for these bench tests.
  • Data Provenance: The tests are non-clinical (bench tests) conducted by the manufacturer, Zhejiang Soudon Medical Technology Co.,Ltd. The country of origin of the device is China. The data is prospective in the sense that the manufacturer performed these tests specifically for this submission.

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 as this submission relies on engineering and manufacturing standards verification as opposed to clinical expert assessment of a diagnostic outcome. For bench testing, ground truth is typically defined by engineering specifications and standard test methods.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:

  • This is not applicable as the document describes bench testing against predefined engineering specifications and compliance with international standards, rather than expert-adjudicated clinical outcomes.

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 study was not done. This device is a Disposable Sphincterotome, which is an electrosurgical accessory used by a clinician, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for "human readers." Therefore, this type of study is irrelevant for this device.

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

  • No, this is an electrosurgical medical device, not an algorithm or software requiring standalone performance testing in that context.

7. The type of ground truth used:

  • For the non-clinical performance data, the ground truth is based on:
    • Engineering specifications and design requirements for "Appearance" and "Physical properties."
    • International Consensus Standards such as ISO 10993-1 (Biocompatibility), ISO 11135-1 (EO Sterilization), and ISO 10993-7 (Ethylene Oxide Sterilization Residuals).
    • Substantial Equivalence to the legally marketed predicate device (K201121) in terms of indications for use, technological characteristics, and safety/performance profiles.

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • This is not applicable. This submission is for a physical medical device, not an AI algorithm, and therefore there is no "training set" in the context of machine learning.

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

  • Not applicable for the same reason as point 8.

Dear Nick Wang:

We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
