AI/ML Overview

The given text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called the "Karl Storz Unimat Plus" system, which is a suction/irrigation pump. This document focuses on establishing the device's substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices based on its intended use and design, rather than proving its performance against specific clinical acceptance criteria through a study.

Therefore, the provided text does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, study details, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set information.

The summary states:

  • "The Karl Storz Unimat Plus system is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices since the basic features and intended uses are similar."
  • "The minor differences between the Karl Storz Unimat Plus and the predicate devices raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness, as these differences have no effect on the performance, function or intended use of these devices."

This indicates that the regulatory clearance is based on comparison to legally marketed devices, implying that if the predicate devices are safe and effective, and the new device is substantially similar without raising new safety/effectiveness concerns, then the new device is also considered safe and effective for its stated use. It does not describe a performance study with specific quantitative acceptance criteria for the device itself.
