Intended Use

This instrument is indicated for use during general endoscopic and laparoscopic surgical procedures, and, using additional accessories, to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

Device Description

The KSEA DCI Endoscope is comprised of a rigid, panoramic telescope which utilizes rod lens technology. The body contact portions of the KSEA DCI Endoscope are composed of surgical grade stainless steel, which is commonly used in medical devices for a wide range of applications and has a long history of biocompatibility for human use.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Karl Storz DCI Endoscope. It describes the device, its intended use, and claims substantial equivalence to predicate devices. However, this document does not contain specific acceptance criteria, performance data, or details of a study to prove the device meets such criteria.

The 510(k) summary states:

  • Substantial Equivalence: "The KSEA DCI Endoscope is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices since the basic features, design and intended uses are the same. The minor differences between the KSEA DCI Endoscope and the predicate devices raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness, as these design differences have no affect on the performance, function or intended use of the devices."

This means the submission relies on the established safety and effectiveness of previously cleared, similar devices (predicate devices) rather than presenting new, detailed performance studies against specific acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for the following information based on the provided text:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This information is not present. The submission claims substantial equivalence, implying the device performs similarly to predicate devices, but no specific performance metrics or acceptance thresholds are given.
  2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable, as no specific performance test set is described.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable.
  4. Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
  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 document pertains to an endoscope, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
  6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm.
  7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable, as detailed performance studies are not described.
  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable for this type of device submission.
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

In summary, the provided 510(k) submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, not on presenting novel performance study data against specific acceptance criteria for a new, unique device.

Re: K983363 Trade Name: DCI Endoscope Regulatory Class: II Product Code:GCJ Dated: September 23, 1998 Received: September 24, 1998

Dear. Mr. Kennan:

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 requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) 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.
