Device Description

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) notification for a medical device called "Clinijel Lubricating Jelly." This type of submission is for demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving that a device meets specific performance criteria through a study.

Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and a study demonstrating the device meets those criteria. The 510(k) process focuses on comparing the new device's characteristics and intended use to a predicate device, not on presenting novel performance study data against pre-defined acceptance criteria.

Specifically, the document does not include:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.
  2. Sample sizes for a test set.
  3. Number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications.
  4. Adjudication method for a test set.
  5. A multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study or its effect size.
  6. A standalone (algorithm-only) performance study.
  7. The type of ground truth used for performance evaluation.
  8. Sample size for a training set.
  9. How ground truth for a training set was established.

Instead, the document details a comparison of Clinijel to existing lubricating jellies (H R Lubricating Jelly, Triad Lubricating Jelly, and K-Y Jelly) based on their:

  • Intended Use Statements: Claiming similar intended uses.
  • Ingredients: Specifically gelling agents (Hydroxyethylcellulose vs. Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose and Carbomer 934P).
  • Target Population: All target the same population.
  • Comparative Features Table (Page 1): Appearance, gelling agent, preservatives, propylene glycol/glycerol, pH adjustment method, container, and shelf life.

The FDA's response (Page 2) confirms that the device is "substantially equivalent" to predicate devices, allowing it to be marketed, but this is not based on a new performance study with acceptance criteria.
