AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the "5 Star Medical Endoscope," which received market clearance in 1997. This document details the description of the device and its intended use, rather than a study proving performance against acceptance criteria. Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study design, sample sizes, and ground truth establishment is not present in this type of regulatory submission.

However, I can extract the following relevant information based on the typical content of such documents and the provided text:

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

This information is not provided in the 510(k) summary. 510(k) submissions typically demonstrate "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device, rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria in a formal clinical study report contained within the summary.

Here's an illustrative table based on general expectations for an endoscope, but the values are hypothetical as they are not in the document:

Acceptance Criteria (Hypothetical)Reported Device Performance (Not in Document)
Image ResolutionDemonstrated clear visualization of anatomical structures
Illumination (Light Output)Sufficient illumination of the surgical field
Working Channel PatencyAccessories pass smoothly through the working channel
Deflection Range and ControlFull, smooth deflection as designed
BiocompatibilityIn compliance with ISO 10993 (implied by regulatory review)
Cleaning and SterilizationEffective sterilization without device degradation

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

  • Sample Size for Test Set: Not mentioned. 510(k) summaries do not typically detail the sample size of a specific test set for performance evaluation in the way a clinical study report would. The "test set" in the context of a 510(k) is often the comparison to the predicate device's established performance, or bench testing, not a clinical trial with a defined patient sample.
  • Data Provenance: Not mentioned. Given the nature of a 510(k) for substantial equivalence, the "data" would likely refer to bench testing or possibly a review of existing literature on similar devices, rather than a specific clinical study with identified geographical origin.

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

  • Not applicable/Not mentioned. In a 510(k) for an endoscope, "ground truth" as established by experts for a test set typically refers to clinical accuracy studies. This document does not describe such a study. Device safety and efficacy are primarily established through technical specifications, bench testing, and comparison to a legally marketed predicate device.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:

  • Not applicable/Not mentioned. No specific adjudication method is described as there is no mention of a clinical test set requiring expert consensus.

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. The device is a traditional endoscope, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool. MRMC studies and AI assistance metrics are not relevant to this product.

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

  • Not applicable. The device is a traditional endoscope; there is no algorithm or AI component to test in a standalone manner.

7. The type of ground truth used:

  • Not applicable/Not explicitly stated in the context of clinical performance. For an endoscope, "ground truth" for its intended use (direct visualization and diagnostic/therapeutic procedures) would be the actual pathology or clinical outcome confirmed by other means (e.g., biopsy, follow-up, surgical findings). The 510(k) relies on the known performance and safety profiles of the predicate device and the design specifications of the new device to demonstrate substantial equivalence, rather than needing to establish "ground truth" for a diagnostic accuracy claim from a novel algorithm.

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • Not applicable/Not mentioned. There is no "training set" as this is not an AI/machine learning device.

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

  • Not applicable. No training set exists.

Summary of available information from the document:

  • Device Name: 5 Star Medical Endoscope
  • Predicate Device: Saratoga Modular Miniature Endoscope System
  • Description: A system including rigid mini ureteroscopes, deflecting tip scopes of various lengths and diameters, an optical handle with magnifying optics, fiber optic cables, adapters, and light sources.

DEVICE NAME

5 Star Medical Endoscope

SEP - 8 1997

NAME OF PREDICATE OR LEGALLY MARKETED DEVICE

Saratoga Modular Miniature Endoscope System

DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE

A description of the endoscopes' components is as follows:

Optical Catheters

A rigid mini ureteroscope provides for examination of the lower third of the ureter. Channels are provided for irrigation and instrumentation.

The deflecting tip scopes are available in various lengths (30 to 200 cm) and outer diameters (1.6 to 4.0mm) for visualization and diagnosis of the urethra , bladder(of children), ureters (of adults) and kidney. They can also be used to directly visualize and diagnose conditions in the common bile duct, liver and pancreatic duct. The exploration of the colon can also be accomplished by passing the 5 Star Medical endoscopes through the operating channel of a standard colonoscope. They are available with a working channel, fiberoptic cable connection and device for deflection. Manipulation at the proximal end of the flexible scope activates the deflection of the distal tip.

Optical Handle

The optical handle consists of an eye piece, a barrel and a scope connection. The handle incorporates magnifying optics which can be adjusted for focus with the focusing ring.

Fiber Optic Cables, Adapters and Light Sources

The fiber optic cables consist of a bundle of non-coherent glass fibers. The fiber optic bundle is sheathed. The light source end of the cable is configured to fit various light sources currently available in distribution (e.g. Wolf, Olympus, Storz ACMI and Pentax). The instrument end of the cable is finished with a female ACMI type connector. Light sources which are in common use are compatible with the 5 Star Medical Endoscope. Diagnostic and photo light sources are effective and safe to use with this system. The adapters which are available for use with the fiber optic cable provide for connection to light sources built by Wolf. Olympus, Storz, ACMI and Pentax.
