The Datex Engstrom manual resuscitator is designed for use as an adjunct to artificial respiration and CPR. It can be used to ventilate the apnoeic patient and to augment ventilation and / or oxygen delivery to the spontaneously breathing patient.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document, K970991, describes the Datex Engstrom Reusable Manual Resuscitator and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not an AI or algorithm-based device. Therefore, many of the requested categories related to AI performance, ground truth, and expert studies are not applicable.

Based on the available information for this medical device, here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study proving compliance:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria for the Datex Engstrom Reusable Manual Resuscitator are primarily based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices (Hudson RCI - Durable Manual resuscitator - K895589 and Hudson RCI - PEEP valves - K902062) by meeting established performance standards and design characteristics.

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

The document does not describe a "test set" in the context of an algorithm or AI. The assessment for this device is based on a comparison of design, materials, intended use, and adherence to recognized performance standards (ASTM, ISO). The provenance of this information is from the manufacturer's submission to the FDA for a 510(k) premarket notification in Sweden (Datex Engstrom AB is in Bromma, Sweden). The data is retrospective in the sense that it describes existing design features and compliance with established standards.

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

Not applicable for this type of device submission. The "ground truth" for a manual resuscitator is its physical properties, compliance with design specifications, and functioning according to established medical device standards. This is typically assessed through engineering design, materials testing, and adherence to international performance standards, rather than expert consensus on a test set of data.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable. There is no "test set" or adjudication method as would be applied to an AI or diagnostic algorithm evaluation.

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. This is a traditional medical device (manual resuscitator), not an AI-assisted device.

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

Not applicable. This is a traditional medical device, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

The "ground truth" for this device's acceptance is based on adherence to:

  • Established Performance Standards: Specifically, ASTM 1054 / ISO 5356 for patient fittings and ASTM 920 / ISO 8382 for overall manual resuscitator performance. These standards define the expected physical and functional characteristics a device must possess.
  • Material Specifications: The use of specific, known biocompatible and durable materials like silicone, polysulfone, aluminum, and stainless steel.
  • Predicate Device Equivalence: The primary method for establishing effectiveness and safety is by demonstrating that the new device shares the same intended use, fundamental technological characteristics, and performance profile as legally marketed predicate devices, and that any differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable, as this is not an AI or algorithm-based device.

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

Not applicable, as this is not an AI or algorithm-based device.

Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:

The "study" proving the device meets the acceptance criteria is not a clinical trial or an AI performance study in the modern sense. Instead, it's a technical comparison and declaration of compliance documented by the manufacturer as part of their 510(k) submission.

The document explicitly states:

  • "The Datex Engstrom manual resuscitator proposes to be substantially equivalent to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976." (Implied by the 510(k) submission process itself and the FDA's final letter).
  • The comparison table (under "Device Description" and "Comparison to Predicate Devices") systematically details various attributes (Use, Environment of Use, Patient Population, Design/Theory of Operation, Materials, Performance Standards) for the Datex-Engstrom device and the predicate Hudson RCI device. In every listed attribute, the Datex-Engstrom device's performance or characteristic is marked "Yes," indicating it meets or is equivalent to the predicate.
  • A key statement is found in the "Performance Standards / Specifications" section: "Meets all specifications, testing and requirements of ASTM 920 / ISO 8382." This indicates that engineering tests were likely conducted to ensure compliance with these recognized safety and performance standards for manual resuscitators.
  • Finally, the document explicitly states under "Differences between Other Legally Marketed Predicate Devices": "There is no differences between the intended device and the predicate devices which would be significant to patient safety or effectiveness."

In summary, the device's acceptance is proven by demonstrating its substantial equivalence to predicate devices through a detailed comparison of its characteristics to those of the predicates and by confirming its adherence to relevant ASTM and ISO performance standards. This information would have been supported by internal testing and design documentation provided by Datex Engstrom AB to the FDA.
