Study Information:

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

    • The document does not explicitly state the exact sample sizes for each specific performance test (e.g., number of devices tested for leak, strength, etc.). It refers to "sample size" generally in the context of the performance data summary.
    • The data provenance is from non-clinical bench tests and simulated use tests conducted by Applied Medical Resources Corporation. There is no indication of country of origin for data or whether it's retrospective or prospective, as these are bench tests.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and qualifications:

    • This information is not applicable as the document describes performance testing of a physical medical device (specimen retrieval system), not an AI/software device that requires expert-established ground truth. The 'ground truth' here is the objective outcome of the physical/mechanical and biological tests.
  3. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • This is not applicable for the type of device and testing described. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are typically used for clinical studies involving reader interpretations, not for bench testing of physical device performance.
  4. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study:

    • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for AI-powered diagnostic/interpretive devices where human readers' performance is augmented by AI. The Inzii Ripstop Redeployable Retrieval System is a physical surgical tool.
  5. Standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) study:

    • No, a standalone study was not done. This concept is specific to AI algorithms. The device described functions with human interaction during surgery.
  6. Type of ground truth used:

    • For the performance testing, the "ground truth" used was based on objective measurements and observations from the non-clinical bench tests and simulated use tests. This includes parameters like liquid tightness, resistance to tearing/puncture, and mechanical functionality, as well as established ISO standards for biocompatibility.
  7. Sample size for the training set:

    • This information is not applicable as the document describes performance testing of a physical medical device, not an AI/machine learning model that requires a training set.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • This information is not applicable as there is no training set for a physical medical device.

  • Indications for use: Applied Medical's Inzii Ripstop Redeployable retrieval system is indicated for use as a receptacle for the collection and extraction of tissue, organs, and calculi during general and laparoscopic surgical procedures.

Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device

The subject device Inzii Ripstop Redeployable Retrieval System has the same indications for use as the predicate device Inzii Tissue Retrieval System. The subject device features a stronger Ripstop nylon bag and a change in design that allows it to be deployed multiple times.

The predicate device is packaged with the bag rolled up inside the tube. The predicate device is inserted into a trocar, the bag is deployed followed by the bag being cinched closed, the Introducer tube and trocar removed, and the bag with the specimen retrieved through the incision site.

The subject device is packaged with the bag outside of the bag must be retracted into the tube, followed by inserting it into the trocar and deployed to retrieve the specimen. If a surgeon deems it appropriate, the subject device can be redeployed multiple times in a single surgical procedure. For final deployment, the bag is cinched closed, the Introducer tube and trocar are removed, and the bag with the specimen is retrieved through the incision site. Table 1 below provide a side-by-side comparison of the predicate and subject device's attributes.
