Intended Use

This instrument is intended to be used with an Olympus video system center, light source, documentation equipment. monitor, EndoTherapy accessories (such as a biopsy forceps), and other ancillary equipment for endoscopy and endoscopic surgery.

The EVIS EXERA III GASTROINTESTINAL VIDEOSCOPE GIF-1TH190 is indicated for use within the upper digestive tract (including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum).

Device Description

The GIF-1TH190 consists of three parts: the control section, the insertion section, and the connector section. The basic principle including user interface and operation for the procedure of the GIF-1TH190 is identical to that of the primary predicate device (K112680) and reference device (K131902).

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the EVIS EXERA III Gastrointestinal Videoscope GIF-1TH190 and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It appears to be part of a 510(k) submission to the FDA. The information provided heavily focuses on bench testing and comparison to predicate devices rather than clinical studies with defined acceptance criteria for diagnostic performance metrics like sensitivity or specificity.

Here's an analysis based on the provided text, addressing your specific points:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not present a single table of "acceptance criteria" alongside specific reported "device performance" in the way one might expect for a diagnostic AI device (e.g., statistical thresholds for sensitivity/specificity). Instead, the "performance data" section details various engineering and safety tests. The acceptance criteria for these tests are generally implied to be meeting design specifications and regulatory standards.

Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Tests/Evaluations PerformedReported Device Performance (Summary)
ReprocessingReprocessing instruction and method validationConducted and documentation provided as recommended by FDA guidance. (Implied: met validation standards for cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization)
BiocompatibilityCytotoxicity Study, Intracutaneous Study, Guinea Pig Maximization Sensitization TestConducted in accordance with ISO 10993-1. (Implied: device materials are biocompatible)
Electrical Safety & EMCElectrical safety (ANSI AAMI ES 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-18), EMC (IEC 60601-1-2)Conducted (Implied: device meets electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards)
Bench PerformanceThermal safety, Composite Durability, Photobiological safety, Noise and Dynamic Range, Color Performance, Image Intensity Uniformity, Distortion, Field of View, Direction of View, Depth of Field, Video Latency, ResolutionConducted to ensure the device performs as intended and meets design specifications. (Implied: meets internal engineering specifications for these parameters)
Risk ManagementRisk management in accordance with ISO 14971:2019Design verification tests and their acceptance criteria were identified and performed as a result of this risk management. (Implied: Risks are acceptably mitigated)

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

The document explicitly states:

  • "No animal study was performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence."
  • "No clinical study was performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence."

This indicates that there was no formal test set in the sense of patient data or clinical samples used to evaluate diagnostic performance. The "tests" mentioned are primarily engineering bench tests on the device itself or material and reprocessing validation studies. Therefore, sample size and data provenance are not applicable in the context of clinical/diagnostic performance testing.

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

Since no clinical or diagnostic performance study was conducted on patient data, there was no "ground truth" to be established by experts in this context. The evaluation relies on technical comparisons and non-clinical validations.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable, as no clinical or diagnostic performance test set was used that would require 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. This device is a gastrointestinal videoscope, not an AI-powered diagnostic system or an assistance tool for human readers. It's a hardware device designed for direct human operation for visualization.

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

Not applicable. This is a hardware device for direct visualization by a human, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

Not applicable. No "ground truth" for diagnostic purposes was established as no clinical or diagnostic performance study was conducted. The "ground truth" for the various engineering tests would be the established industry standards, regulatory requirements, and internal design specifications.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable, as this is a hardware device and not an AI/machine learning algorithm.

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

Not applicable, as this is a hardware device and not an AI/machine learning algorithm.

Summary Conclusion from the Document:

The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence of the EVIS EXERA III Gastrointestinal Videoscope GIF-1TH190 to a legally marketed predicate device (EVIS EXERA III GIF-H190 and referenced PENTAX Video Upper G.I. Scopes EG-3490K) primarily through:

  • Comparison of technological characteristics: Highlighting similarities and justifying differences through non-clinical testing.
  • Non-clinical performance testing: Including reprocessing validation, biocompatibility, electrical safety/EMC, and various bench performance tests (e.g., optical properties, mechanical durability).
  • Risk management: Assurance that potential risks have been identified and mitigated.

The submission did not involve clinical studies, animal studies, or expert evaluations of diagnostic performance, as is typical for traditional hardware medical devices demonstrating substantial equivalence to a well-established predicate. The acceptance criteria are therefore tied to meeting established engineering specifications, regulatory standards, and demonstrating that any differences from the predicate device do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

4. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

■ General Description of the subject device

This instrument is intended to be used with an Olympus video system center, light source, documentation equipment, monitor, EndoTherapy accessories (such as a biopsy forceps), and other ancillary equipment for endoscopy and endoscopic surgery.

The EVIS EXERA III GASTROINTESTINAL VIDEOSCOPE GIF-1TH190 is indicated for use within the upper digestive tract (including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum).

■ Principle of Operation

The GIF-1TH190 consists of three parts: the control section, the insertion section, and the connector section. The basic principle including user interface and operation for the procedure of the GIF-1TH190 is identical to that of the primary predicate device (K112680) and reference device (K131902).

1. The Control Section

{7}------------------------------------------------

The UP/DOWN angulation control knob and the RIGHT/LEFT angulation control knob on the control section is connected to the tip of the bending section by a series of wires. By operating the UP/DOWN angulation control knob and the RIGHT/LEFT angulation control knob, the bending section at the distal end bends vertically or parallel to guide the distal end for insertion and observation within the upper digestive tract (including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum).

The endoscope contains a cylinder to attach a suction valve for suction and air/water valve. Depressing the suction valve will allow the physician to use the endoscope to suction any fluids which are obscuring a good view of the tissue. Therapeutic instruments can be passed through the instrument channel for performing endoscopic biopsy and other therapies. Depressing the air/water valve will allow the doctor to feed water through the endoscope for lens washing. It also can be operated to feed air for removing any fluids or debris adhering to the objective lens.

2. The Insertion Section

The insertion section has main parts including the CCD, light guides that bring light from the light source through the endoscope, and instrument channel where therapeutic tools can be pushed in and out (also the suction channel).

3. The Connector Section

The connector section connects the endoscope with the light source (CLV-190) through the universal cord.
