The Endoscopic Video Image Processor is used in conjunction with the Single-Use Video Flexible Cysto-Nephroscope (Models: RP-U-C01F, RP-U-C01FS) to process the images collected by the video endoscope and send them to the display, and provide power for the endoscope.
The Endoscopic Video Image Processor is a video processing system intended for use during endoscopic procedures. It receives and processes image signals from a compatible video endoscope and produces live video images during endoscopic procedures. Apart from the image processing functions, it also provides the power supply for the endoscope.
The Endoscopic Video Image Processor is a reusable device. It does not require sterilization before use, as there is no direct/indirect patient contact. The device needs to be cleaned and disinfected before use. and the cleaning and disinfection method is outlined in the Instructions for Use.
The provided text describes the Endoscopic Video Image Processor (RP-IPD-V1000F) as a video processing system for endoscopic procedures. It details its functions, such as processing image signals from compatible video endoscopes, producing live video images, and providing power to the endoscope. The document specifies that the device does not require sterilization as there is no direct/indirect patient contact but needs cleaning and disinfection before use.
Here's an analysis of the provided information regarding acceptance criteria and the supporting study:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not explicitly present a table of "acceptance criteria" with specific pass/fail thresholds alongside "reported device performance" in a quantitative manner as typically expected. Instead, it lists general performance characteristics that were tested and states that the "Performance Testing demonstrated that the subject device and the predicate device have similar performance, and the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate device."
Here's a reconstruction based on the available information:
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Direction of view | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Field of view | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Depth of field | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Resolution | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Signal-to-noise ratio | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Geometric distortion | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Image intensity uniformity | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Dynamic range | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Color performance | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| Image Frame Frequency | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
| System Delay | The testing showed similar performance to the predicate device. |
The standards referenced are:
- ISO 8600-1:2015 Endoscopes - Medical endoscopes and endotherapy devices. General requirements
- ISO 8600-3:2019 Endoscopes. Medical endoscopes and endotherapy devices. Part 3: Determination of field of view and direction of view of endoscopes with optics
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not provide information on the sample size used for the test set or the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective). It mentions "the Cysto-Nephroscope System" as the subject of testing.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
The document does not provide information regarding the number of experts used or their qualifications for establishing ground truth. The testing appears to be primarily technical performance testing against ISO standards rather than a clinical evaluation requiring expert interpretation of medical images.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not specify any adjudication method. Given that the testing appears to be technical performance testing of the device's imaging capabilities, a traditional adjudication method for medical image interpretation would likely not be applicable.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
The document explicitly states "IX. Clinical Evidence N/A." This indicates that no human factors or comparative effectiveness study involving human readers with and without AI assistance was conducted or provided for this submission. The device is an image processor, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)
Yes, a standalone performance study was done in the form of "non-clinical performance testing." This testing evaluated the device's technical specifications and imaging capabilities (e.g., resolution, signal-to-noise ratio, color performance, image frame frequency, system delay) against relevant ISO standards. This is considered standalone performance as it assesses the device's intrinsic functional properties independent of human interaction or a clinical scenario.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for the non-clinical performance testing was based on technical specifications and compliance with international standards (ISO 8600-1:2015 and ISO 8600-3:2019), rather than expert consensus on medical findings, pathology, or outcomes data, as this device primarily processes images.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not mention a training set. This is expected as the device described is an "Endoscopic Video Image Processor" and is not presented as an AI/ML-driven diagnostic algorithm that would typically require a training set. It processes existing video signals rather than performing analysis for diagnostic insights.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Since there is no mention of a training set, this information is not applicable.

Dear Ping Yang:
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.
