2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The provided document does not explicitly state the sample sizes used for each specific test in the "Non-clinical performance Data" section. It lists performance results but not the number of units tested.

The data provenance is from non-clinical performance testing, likely conducted by the manufacturer, Sincera Technology (Changchun) Co., Ltd. The country of origin for the testing would be P.R. China, based on the submitter's address. The data is prospective in the sense that it was generated for the purpose of demonstrating the device's performance against established standards.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

This document describes a non-clinical performance study of a dental material, not a diagnostic device requiring human interpretation of images or clinical data. Therefore, there is no mention of "experts" or "ground truth" in the context of clinical interpretation for a test set. The "ground truth" for these tests is implicitly defined by the ISO standards themselves, which specify measurement methodologies and acceptance criteria.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

As this is a non-clinical performance study against ISO standards, no adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1) is applicable or mentioned. The results are based on direct measurements and observations relative to the specified criteria.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done or is relevant to this type of device (Light Cure Composite). This is a material science and engineering performance evaluation, not a diagnostic imaging device requiring human reader input or comparison.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

Not applicable. This device is a physical dental material, not a software algorithm.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used for this study is based on established international standards (ISO 4049 and ISO 10993-1). These standards define the test methodologies and the acceptable performance limits for the specific physical and chemical properties of the dental composite material.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This is a hardware/material device, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a "training set."

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Not applicable. As there is no training set for an algorithm, there's no ground truth to establish for it in this context.
