Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

This FDA 510(k) clearance letter dated August 30, 1999, for the "Card Guard Telemedicine 2000" outlines the regulatory acceptance of the device but does not contain any information regarding specific acceptance criteria, device performance studies, or clinical trial data.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided document. The letter primarily focuses on the device's classification, substantial equivalence to a predicate device, and the general regulatory provisions it must comply with.

Here's a breakdown of why I cannot answer each point from the input based on the provided text:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This information is not present. The letter states the device is "substantially equivalent" but provides no performance metrics or criteria.
  2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance: Not mentioned.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not mentioned.
  4. Adjudication method for the test set: Not mentioned.
  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 mentioned. This device is a "Telemedicine Receiving Center" for ECG and spirometric parameters, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool in the sense of image interpretation, so such a study would be unlikely to be applicable or discussed in this context.
  6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not mentioned. The device's description as a "Telemedicine Receiving Center intended for supporting transtelephonic monitoring" implies human involvement in interpreting the received parameters.
  7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): Not mentioned.
  8. The sample size for the training set: Not mentioned.
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not mentioned.

Dear Mr. Trachtenberg:

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 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.

{1}------------------------------------------------

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) 594-4648. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification"(21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597, or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
