The InsulScan™ Insulation Testing System is a non-destructive, non-patient contact, high voltage insulation tester designed to test the insulation of electrosurgical instruments.
The InsulScan™ system is comprised of a disposable hand-held instrument probe, a control unit, a cable adapter, and a ten-foot long connection cable. The InsulScan™ system is powered by a rechargeable battery housed in the control unit. A battery recharger unit and battery charger cable are provided for recharging. The InsulScan™ probe is provided sterile, single use and may not be resterilized.
The provided document describes the InsulScan™ Insulation Testing System, which is a non-destructive, non-patient contact, high voltage insulation tester designed to test the insulation of electrosurgical instruments.
The document does not include specific acceptance criteria or a detailed study proving the device meets those criteria. It focuses on the regulatory submission (510(k) summary) rather than performance validation. Therefore, the requested information cannot be fully provided from the given text.
However, based on the available information, here's what can be extracted and how the missing pieces would typically be presented:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document provides "Device Specifications" which can be interpreted as design specifications or performance targets. However, it does not explicitly state acceptance criteria or show actual measured performance against those criteria.
| Item | Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Specifications) | Reported Device Performance (Not explicitly stated in document) |
|---|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 6,500 Volts, DC ± 1,000 Volts, DC | Not reported |
| Operating Duration | Continuous: 30 minutes (automatic power off) | Not reported |
| Frequency | DC | Not reported |
| Intended Use | Non-destructive, non-patient contact, high voltage insulation tester for electrosurgical instruments | The 510(k) clearance implies the device meets its stated intended use. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
The document does not provide details on a specific test set, its sample size, or data provenance. This type of information would typically be found in a detailed validation study report, which is not included here. This 510(k) summary refers to the device as being substantially equivalent to a predicate device (LIT Insulation Testing System K952889), which implies that the substantial equivalence was demonstrated through comparison to the predicate's established performance, but specific test data for the InsulScan™ is not presented.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
Not applicable. The document does not describe a clinical study or a study involving expert assessment to establish ground truth for a test set. This device is an insulation tester, not a diagnostic or imaging device that would typically rely on expert ground truth.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
Not applicable. There is no mention of a test set that would require an adjudication method.
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 device is 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 device is a hardware testing instrument, not an algorithm. Its performance is inherent in its design and function. The "standalone" performance would typically refer to its ability to accurately detect insulation breaches as designed, but specific testing details are not provided.
7. The type of ground truth used
For an insulation testing device, the "ground truth" would typically be established by:
- Known defective insulation: Electrosurgical instruments with pre-engineered or confirmed insulation failures.
- Known intact insulation: Electrosurgical instruments with confirmed, undamaged insulation.
- Reference standard measurement: Using highly accurate and calibrated laboratory equipment to determine the actual insulation integrity (e.g., breakdown voltage, leakage current) against which the device's measurements are compared.
The document does not detail how the ground truth was established for any internal testing or validation studies.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This device is a physical instrument, not a machine learning model that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable. This device is a physical instrument, not a machine learning model that requires a training set.

Dear Mr. Kerrigan:
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 legally marketed predicate 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 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 viiro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613.
