The Sof-Suction™ Fluid Evacuation System is used to remove excess irrigation fluids The Bot-Baction - Pland 24 assumed aring microscopic eye surgery to mitigate the effects n of the medial cannies of the eye aid as a see and to prevent stagnant irrigating fluid from entering the eye
Consists of a proximal portion consisting of a 11 mm x 7 mm x 7 mm polyvinyl acetal sponge tip fastened by heat bonding to a 7 mm 18Ga thin wall 301 stainless steel cannula friction attached to a 36'' 5 Fr polyvinyl acetate suction tubing, attached with medical grade adhesive to a ¼" standard suction tubing adapter. Included with the device is adhesive tape for fixating the suction tubing.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Sof-Suction™ Fluid Evacuation System, a medical device. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than detailed performance studies and acceptance criteria as would be found for a novel device or AI-powered solution.
Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested in the prompt regarding acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert involvement, or algorithm performance for an AI/ML device.
Specifically:
- No table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance is present for the Sof-Suction™ system, as its approval is based on substantial equivalence rather than meeting specific performance metrics in a clinical study.
- No sample sizes for a test set or data provenance are mentioned.
- No number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth are discussed.
- No adjudication method is described.
- No multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study is mentioned, as this is for human-AI interaction in diagnostic tasks.
- No standalone algorithm performance study is described, as the device is a physical fluid evacuation system.
- No type of ground truth used is specified, as there is no diagnostic or AI component.
- No sample size for a training set is applicable for this type of device.
- No method for establishing ground truth for a training set is relevant.
The document states: "We are simply combining two proven technologies in a new, safe and effective manner." This emphasizes the substantial equivalence approach, where existing approved components are combined, and thus extensive de novo safety and efficacy studies with acceptance criteria and performance metrics are not typically required in the same way as for a completely new or AI-driven technology.

-
- TRADE NAME: SOF-SUCTION™ FLUID EVACUATION SYSTEM
-
- COMMON NAMES: eye spears, sponge points & suction tubing
-
- CLASSIFICATION NAME: sponge, ophthalmic & tube, aspirating, flexible, connecting
-
- EQUIVALENT TO: Merocel Sponge Points and Datex-Ohmeda Suction Tubing.
-
- DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE: Consists of a proximal portion consisting of a 11 mm x 7 mm x 7 mm polyvinyl acetal sponge tip fastened by heat bonding to a 7 mm 18Ga thin wall 301 stainless steel cannula friction attached to a 36'' 5 Fr polyvinyl acetate suction tubing, attached with medical grade adhesive to a ¼" standard suction tubing adapter. Included with the device is adhesive tape for fixating the suction tubing.
-
- INTENDED USE: The device is used to continuously wick away irrigation fluid during eye surgery in an atraumatic manner since the suction does not reach the delicate tissues of the eye. The device can also be used in neurosurgery and other surgeries that cannot tolerate direct suction on tissue.
-
- TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Our device consists of a combination of the Merocel Sponge Point and Suction Tubing. This results in continuous wicking by the sponge since the sponge is continuously emptied at its distal reservoir by aspirating the fluid from the reservoir. We are introducing no new materials. We are simply combining two proven technologies in a new, safe and effective manner.

Dear Dr. Rainin:
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 .
