AI/ML Overview

The provided documents are a 510(k) summary and the FDA's clearance letter for the LySonix Irrigation System. These documents confirm that the device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device, but they do not contain the specific details required to answer your request about acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance.

Here's why and what information is missing:

  • 510(k) Summary Purpose: A 510(k) summary primarily focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device. This often involves comparing intended use, technological characteristics, and performance data from studies (if applicable) to show that the new device is as safe and effective as the predicate. It does not typically include detailed reports of individual studies, their methodologies, acceptance criteria, or ground truth establishment.
  • Missing Information: The documents do not include:
    • A table of acceptance criteria.
    • Specific reported device performance against such criteria.
    • Details about a study's sample size for a test set, data provenance, number or qualifications of experts, adjudication methods.
    • Information about MRMC comparative effectiveness studies or standalone algorithm performance.
    • The type of ground truth used, training set size, or how ground truth for the training set was established.

What the document does state regarding performance, but without the requested detail:

  • Substantial Equivalence: The key "proof" in a 510(k) submission like this is the demonstration of substantial equivalence. The document states: "The LySonix Irrigation System is equivalent to the irrigation component of the LySonix Ultrasonic Surgical System in terms of intended use, design, operating principles, materials and performance." (Page 0)
  • This statement implies that the performance of the LySonix Irrigation System was assessed and found to be on par with its predicate, but it doesn't describe how that performance was assessed, what specific metrics were used, or what acceptance criteria were applied in any study.

To answer your request comprehensively, one would need access to the full 510(k) submission, which would contain detailed testing protocols, results, and analyses. The summary provided here is a high-level overview for public disclosure, not the full technical report.

Dear Mr. Lagerquist:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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. ---------

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations. Title 21. Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice-requirements-, as set forth in the Quality System -Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for

devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4595.
