The Option™ELITE Vena Cava Filter is designed for the prevention of recurrent pulmonary embolism via percutaneous delivery in the inferior vena cava (IVC).

The Option™ELITE Vena Cava Filter 100cm System is designed for IVC filter insertion, delivery, deployment and placement via the popliteal and antecubital approach.

The self-centering Option™ELITE Filter is laser cut from nickel - titanium alloy (Nitinol) tubing. The Option™ELITE Filter consists of shape memory Nitinol struts emanating from a central location and is designed for optimal clot capture. Retention anchors (retention hooks) are located at the caudal portion of the filter. These anchors are intended for filter fixation to the vessel wall. The Option™ELITE Filter is intended to be used in caval diameters up to 30mm. A retrieval hook is centrally located at the cranial extremity.

The constrained Option™ELITE Filter is flexible and expands to the internal diameter of the IVC upon deployment. The Option™ELITE Filter imparts an outward radial force on the luminal surface of the vena cava to ensure proper positioning and stability. The Option™ ELITE Filter is designed to prevent pulmonary embolism while maintaining caval patency through central filtration.

The introduction kit is comprised of a filter housed in a filter cartridge. Catheter Sheath Introducer (5F ID). Angiographic Vessel Dilator with an open end, and a Pusher with deployment marker.

The Angiographic Vessel Dilator has side holes and 2 radiopaque markers, separated by 32mm (between the marker bands), that provide linear measurement of the inferior vena cava and assists in angiographic visualization when radiopaque contrast is delivered. The pusher advances the filter through the Catheter Sheath Introducer up to the deployment marker, and is then used to fix the filter in place during uncovering. The location of the distal end of the Catheter Sheath Introducer can be controlled by rotating the entire device to position the Catheter Sheath Introducer in the center of the vena cava. The Filter Cartridge houses the Option™ELITE Filter. The body of the Cartridge has text and colored arrows printed on it that identify assembly orientation, femoral is printed in green and jugular is printed in blue. The arrow of the desired access site will point into the Catheter Sheath Introducer hub. The Angiographic Vessel Dilator is designed to provide angiographic visualization and linear measurement of the vasculature when used in conjunction with the delivery of radiopaque contrast media to the vena cava.

This document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Option™ELITE Vena Cava Filter System and Option™ELITE Vena Cava Filter 100cm System. The purpose of the submission is to incorporate results from the PRESERVE study summary data into the Instructions for Use (IFU).

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided document does not include a specific table of acceptance criteria or reported device performance metrics in the traditional sense of a performance study. This submission is for incorporating existing clinical study results (PRESERVE study) into the device's labeling, rather than presenting new performance data for a modified device. The document explicitly states:

"No new operating principles have been introduced with the subject device. The subject device operates using the identical fundamental scientific technology as the predicate device; therefore, no performance testing was necessary nor was any performed. The clinical testing was previously provided to FDA under the Investigational Device Exemption and the PRESERVE study."

Because no new performance testing was conducted for this specific 510(k) submission, there are no new device performance metrics to report against an acceptance criterion in this document. The existing performance would be based on the prior clearance of the predicate devices and the PRESERVE study.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document refers to the "PRESERVE study." However, it does not provide details on the sample size used for the test set or the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective) for this study within the provided text. To obtain this information, one would need to consult the original PRESERVE study documentation.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

The provided document does not contain information on the number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications for the PRESERVE study's test set.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The provided document does not specify any adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set of the PRESERVE study.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

An MRMC comparative effectiveness study is typically used for AI-assisted diagnostic devices to assess the impact of AI on human reader performance. Since the device is a Vena Cava Filter System, it is a physical medical device, not a diagnostic imaging AI algorithm. Therefore, no MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done for this device.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

The device is a physical Vena Cava Filter System, not an algorithm or software-only device. Therefore, the concept of "standalone performance" for an algorithm does not apply to this device.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

Given that this is a physical medical device (vena cava filter) and the PRESERVE study would be a clinical trial, the "ground truth" would likely be derived from patient outcomes, imaging data, and clinical assessments related to the filter's effectiveness in preventing pulmonary embolism and its safety profile. However, the document does not explicitly state the type of ground truth used for the PRESERVE study.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The concept of a "training set" typically applies to machine learning algorithms. Since the device is a physical medical device and not an AI/ML product, no training set was used in the context of algorithm development. Clinical trials, like PRESERVE, gather data for validation and effectiveness, not for training an algorithm.

9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As noted above, no training set was used in the context of an algorithm for this physical device. Therefore, how ground truth for a training set was established is not applicable.

In summary, the provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and summary primarily focus on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device and incorporating pre-existing clinical study (PRESERVE study) data into the device's labeling. It does not present new performance data or detail the methodology of the PRESERVE study in the way one might expect for a new device's initial clearance or an AI/ML product. To get specific details about the PRESERVE study (sample size, ground truth, expert involvement, etc.), one would need to refer to its full study report or publications.

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for the Cleaner™ Pro Thrombectomy System. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices, rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria based on clinical outcomes or standalone AI algorithm performance.

Therefore, many of the requested details about acceptance criteria, test sets, ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, and training sets are not present in this type of regulatory submission. This document describes the bench-top and animal performance testing to support the claim of substantial equivalence for a medical device, which is different from studies demonstrating efficacy of an AI algorithm or performance directly tied to a specific set of clinical acceptance criteria.

However, I can extract the information that is available:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

• Data Provenance: The tests were conducted internally by Argon Medical Devices, as indicated by the company providing the summary. The regulatory context implies these are laboratory tests, not clinical data from patients. They are likely prospective bench and lab tests.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

• Not Applicable. This is a medical device 510(k) submission based on engineering and biocompatibility testing, not an AI performance study requiring human expert ground truth for image or diagnostic interpretation. The "ground truth" here is established by validated test methods and reference standards.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

• Not Applicable. See point 3.

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 is not an AI-assisted diagnostic device. Clinical testing (human studies) was explicitly stated as "not required for the determination of substantial equivalence."

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

• Not Applicable. See point 5.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

• Engineering and Biocompatibility Test Standards: The "ground truth" for the device's performance is established by recognized international standards (e.g., ISO 10993 series for biocompatibility, ISO 80369-7 for luer connectors, ISO 11135 for sterilization) and internal validated test protocols designed to assess the device's physical properties and safety characteristics.

8. The sample size for the training set

• Not Applicable. This document describes a medical device, not an AI algorithm. There is no "training set."

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

• Not Applicable. See point 8.

Summary of the Study Proving Acceptance:

The study presented in this 510(k) summary is a series of bench testing, laboratory analyses (biocompatibility), and sterilization validations designed to demonstrate that the modified L-Cath™ catheters are substantially equivalent to the previously cleared predicate devices. The primary change was the material used in the Luer Lock assembly.

The "study" involved:

• Performance Testing: Assessing mechanical characteristics like leak integrity, dimensions, pressure burst, durometer, radiopacity, retaining force, pull force, particulates, and material durability. These tests were stated to be the "SAME as K091670" (the predicate's testing) with additional supplemental testing specific to the Luer Lock material change (Luer Integrity, ISO 80369-7 Compliance).
• Biological Comparison (Biocompatibility Testing): Evaluation of potential biological risks including pyrogenicity, cytotoxicity, hemocompatibility, irritation/sensitization, systemic toxicity, ethylene oxide residuals, and local effects after implantation. Supplemental testing (Systemic Toxicity, Genotoxicity) was performed due to the Luer Lock material change.
• Sterilization Validation: Confirmation that the device can be consistently sterilized to meet a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6, in accordance with ISO 11135:2014 and AAMI TIR28:2016.

The conclusion is that the modified device "met all the predetermined acceptance criteria derived from the above listed reference standards and internal test protocols and demonstrated substantially equivalent performance compared to the predicate device." This means the tests confirmed the new device performs within acceptable limits, similar to the predicate, and does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

Since this is a 510(k) submission for a modification to an existing device, the "acceptance criteria" are not explicitly stated as numerical targets in a table. Instead, the acceptance criteria are implicit in meeting the performance standards of the predicate device and ensuring the modification doesn't negatively impact safety or effectiveness. The reported device performance is that all tests met their respective acceptance criteria.

The document explicitly states: "Test results demonstrate that all acceptance criteria were met; therefore, the device meets the established product specifications."

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not specify the exact sample sizes used for each individual non-clinical test. It only lists the types of tests performed. The data provenance is not explicitly mentioned in terms of country of origin, but it is implied to be from the manufacturer's internal testing. The tests are non-clinical (bench testing, biocompatibility) rather than human subject studies, so the terms "retrospective or prospective" are not applicable in this context.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This information is not applicable to this submission. The tests performed are non-clinical (mechanical, materials, biocompatibility) and do not involve expert interpretation or ground truth establishment in the way clinical studies with AI algorithms would. The "ground truth" for these tests is based on objective measurements against established engineering and biocompatibility standards (e.g., ISO and ASTM standards).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This is not applicable as the tests are non-clinical and do not involve human interpretation or adjudication.

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

A Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done.

6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

A standalone performance study was not done. This is not an AI device.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests is based on:

• Engineering specifications and standards: For mechanical and dimensional tests (e.g., tensile strength, leak test, burst test, radiopacity, Luer testing, flexural modulus, radial force).
• Biocompatibility standards: For biocompatibility tests (e.g., ISO 10993 series for cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, pyrogenicity, systemic toxicity, hemocompatibility).
• Simulated use conditions: For tests like simulated use and design validation.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This is not applicable as this is not an AI device and therefore has no "training set."

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

The Cleaner Plus™ Thrombectomy System is a single use device used to provide thrombectomy in the peripheral venous vasculature. The device provides additional features, such as aspiration and over-the wire device placement. The disposable system consists of: (1) the Aspiration Catheter & Dilator, (2) the Handpiece that includes system controls, and an integrated Maceration Wire, and a Peel-Away Introducer and (3) the Aspiration Canister. The Aspiration Catheter with Dilator may be placed over-the-wire to navigate the device to the therapeutic site. The dilator and guidewire are removed, and the Maceration Wire, using the Peel-Away introducer is advanced through the hemostasis valve of the Aspiration Catheter to the therapeutic site and connected to the handpiece. To complete the system, the provided Aspiration Canister is connected to the handpiece to provide aspiration. The Handpiece provides controls to turn on/off maceration and/or the application of suction. Mechanical thrombectomy is achieved by rotating a flexible stainless-steel maceration wire powered by a motor inside the handpiece. The aspiration source is provided to aspirate macerated clot from the distal portion of the device through the handpiece and captures the macerated clot in the Aspiration Canister reservoir. The Aspiration Canister includes a switch to initiate the pump, and LEDs that indicate the level of the vacuum.

The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for a device modification to the Cleaner Plus™ Thrombectomy System. This is a medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm. Therefore, many of the requested criteria, such as "Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study," "standalone (i.e., algorithm-only) performance," and "ground truth for the test and training set," are not applicable.

The submission focuses on demonstrating the substantial equivalence of a modified device to a predicate device through non-clinical performance testing.

Here's the relevant information extracted from the document:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document states that "Test results demonstrate that all acceptance criteria were met." However, the specific acceptance criteria values are not detailed in the provided text. The types of tests performed indicate the areas for which acceptance criteria would have been established.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document does not specify the sample sizes for the individual tests. The tests were non-clinical (laboratory/bench testing), so data provenance from countries or whether it was retrospective/prospective is not applicable in the typical sense.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

Not applicable, as this is a medical device performance study, not an AI/ML algorithm requiring expert ground truth for image interpretation or diagnosis.

4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. Adjudication methods are typically for clinical studies or studies involving expert interpretation, not for bench testing of device components.

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 is a medical device, not an AI/ML system.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This is a medical device, not an AI/ML system.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The documentation did not specify a "ground truth" in the context of clinical or diagnostic outcomes. For performance testing of a physical device, the "ground truth" would be established physical measurements and material properties relevant to the device's function and safety (e.g., tensile strength, torque, aspiration volume, biocompatibility assays).

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is a medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable. This is a medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set with established ground truth.

Summary of Study Type:

The study described is a non-clinical verification testing of a medical device modification to support substantial equivalence to a predicate device. The tests included various engineering performance tests (e.g., corrosion, tensile, torque, fatigue, simulated use) and biocompatibility assessments. Clinical and animal testing were not required for this determination of substantial equivalence.

The Semi-Automatic Biopsy Instrument and associated Co-Axial Introducer Needle are used to obtain samples from soft tissue such as lung, liver, spleen, kidney, prostate, lymph nodes, breast, thyroid, pancreas, and other masses.

The Semi-Automatic Biopsy Instrument is used to obtain soft tissue biopsies. It is composed of a spring-loaded biopsy needle fitted into a plastic handle permitting single handed specimen collection. The position of the needle may be visualized by x-ray, CT, or ultrasound. The needle has numerically ordered centimeter markings to facilitate precise depth placement. The adjustable instrument allows for a specimen notch size of 10mm or 20mm, providing clinical flexibility. The device has an adjustable co-axial adapter built into the device for either the 10mm or 20mm notch settings. The stylet travels up to 27mm from when the device is in a fully charged position (prepared for a collection with the 20 mm notch size) to when the stylet is fully extended. The needle has an echogenic tip. The semi-automatic biopsy instrument is available in several needle gauge sizes and lengths. The plunger is color coded according to the various gauge sizes, e.g., green=14-gauge, purple=16-gauge, pink=18-gauge, and yellow=20-gauge.

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Semi-Automatic Biopsy Instrument). It lacks the specific details required to answer your request about acceptance criteria and a study proving that an AI/ML-based device meets those criteria.

The document describes a traditional medical device (biopsy instrument) and its performance testing, which are primarily engineering and material tests, not clinical studies involving AI performance, human readers, or ground truth establishment relevant to AI.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided text. The document does not contain:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance related to AI/ML.
2. Sample sizes for test sets in an AI context.
3. Data provenance for AI/ML training/test sets.
4. Number of experts and their qualifications for ground truth in an AI context.
5. Adjudication method for AI test sets.
6. MRMC comparative effectiveness study details.
7. Standalone AI performance (algorithm only).
8. Type of ground truth (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data) for AI/ML.
9. Sample size for training set for AI/ML.
10. How ground truth for the training set was established for AI/ML.

The "Performance Testing" section in the document refers to physical and material tests for the biopsy instrument itself (e.g., Dimensional, Peak Tensile Strength, Simulated Use, Radiopacity, Echogenicity, Corrosion Resistance). This is entirely different from the kind of performance testing relevant to AI/ML medical devices.
