The device is intended for use as a dispenser, a measuring device and an oral fluid transfer device. It is intended to be used to deliver fluids into the body orally or enterally. It is intended to be used in clinical or home care settings by operators ranging from qualified medical practitioners to laypersons (under the supervision of a qualified medical practitioners) in all age groups.
The Oral/Enteral Syringe with ENFit connector is a disposable enteral feeding syringe provided in a variety of sizes from 0.5ml to 60ml. The Oral/Enteral Syringe with ENFit connector consists of plunger, gasket/piston, barrel with ENFit connector, and used to deliver fluids into the body orally or connected to an enteral access device with male ENFit connector. The proposed syringe is sterilized by Ethylene Oxide Gas to achieve a SAL of 10-6 and supplied sterility maintenance package which could maintain the sterility of the device during the shelf life of three years.
This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for an Oral/Enteral Syringe with ENFit connector, seeking substantial equivalence to a predicate device. As such, it does not describe a study to prove a device meets acceptance criteria in the way a clinical trial or performance study for a novel diagnostic algorithm might. Instead, it demonstrates substantial equivalence by showing that the device meets relevant performance standards and has similar technological characteristics to a predicate device.
Therefore, many of the requested categories (sample size for test set, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication method, MRMC study, standalone performance, ground truth for test/training set, training set sample size) are not applicable in the context of this 510(k) submission for a non-active medical device like a syringe.
However, I can extract the acceptance criteria where applicable (i.e., performance standards and biocompatibility) and report the device's performance against those standards as described in the document.

The needles were sterilized by EO to achieve a SAL of 10-6 and supplied sterile in packaging with a shelf life of five years.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a "Bifurcated Needle" and primarily focuses on proving substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on material properties, manufacturing processes, and adherence to performance standards. It explicitly states that "No clinical study is included in this submission." Therefore, the document does not contain information regarding a study that proves the device meets acceptance criteria related to AI/algorithm performance, human reader improvement, or clinical effectiveness.
The request asks for details typically found in submissions for AI/ML-driven medical devices or diagnostic tools, which involve evaluating algorithm performance, human-in-the-loop studies, and the establishment of "ground truth" for test and training sets. Since this document is for a physical, non-AI medical device (a bifurcated needle for administering vaccines), these types of studies were not conducted or presented.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill the request as the necessary information is not present in the provided text. The document does not describe:
- A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance in the context of AI/ML or diagnostic accuracy.
- Sample sizes for a test set for AI performance or data provenance.
- Number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth for AI.
- Adjudication methods for AI test sets.
- MRMC comparative effectiveness studies.
- Standalone (algorithm only) performance.
- Type of ground truth (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data) for AI performance.
- Sample size for training set for AI.
- How ground truth for training set was established for AI.
The "performance data" section in the document refers to biocompatibility, sterilization, shelf life, and general physical performance testing for the needle itself, against standards like ISO 10993, ISO 11135, and ASTM standards.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for each specific test. For medical devices like syringes, testing often involves a defined number of units per batch or per test series to meet statistical requirements of the standards (e.g., 30 samples for a particular mechanical test). The document confirms that various tests were "performed" according to the relevant standards, which implies the use of appropriate sample sizes as defined by those standards.
- Data Provenance: The tests are non-clinical (laboratory/bench testing, material analysis, sterility validation). The manufacturer is Anhui Tiankang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. in Tianchang City, Anhui, China. The data would originate from their internal testing or qualified third-party labs, but the specific country of origin for each test data set is not detailed beyond the manufacturer's location. The studies are by nature prospective in the sense that they are conducted specifically to support this regulatory submission, but they are not clinical studies.
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 physical medical device. "Ground truth" in the context of expert consensus and adjudication is typically relevant to AI/ML devices where the "truth" for image interpretation or diagnosis needs to be established by human experts. For syringes, the "truth" is determined by objective measurements, chemical analyses, and adherence to physical performance specifications outlined in the referenced ISO/ASTM standards. The "experts" involved would be qualified laboratory technicians, engineers, and quality assurance personnel performing the tests according to the standard operating procedures.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not Applicable. See point 3. This concept is for AI/ML device performance evaluation methods, not for physical medical device testing.
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 a manual syringe, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. No human reader involvement or AI assistance is mentioned or relevant.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by objective measurements against defined specifications in international and national consensus standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM, USP). This includes:
- Physical and Mechanical Performance: e.g., plunger force, needle pull-out force, fluid leakage, needle sharpness, volume accuracy based on ISO 7886-1, ISO 7864, ISO 9626.
- Material Properties and Biocompatibility: Chemical analysis, in vitro and in vivo biological tests (Cytotoxicity, Hemolysis, Skin Sensitization, etc.) as per ISO 10993 series for specific material components.
- Sterility Assurance: Sterility testing, bacterial endotoxin testing, and ethylene oxide residue testing according to ISO 11135 and USP standards.
- Shelf-Life Stability: Accelerated aging and real-time stability studies confirming physical properties, sterility, and package integrity over time per ASTM standards.

The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the studies, nor if they were retrospective or prospective. However, given that these are non-clinical performance tests for a device submitted to the FDA by a company in China, it is highly likely that the tests were conducted in a laboratory setting, potentially in China or a certified testing facility elsewhere. They are by nature prospective tests, performed specifically to evaluate the device.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
This information is not applicable as the described studies are non-clinical performance tests of a physical product (surgical face mask), not diagnostic or interpretative studies requiring human expert ground truth.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
This information is not applicable for these types of mechanical and biological compatibility tests. The results are typically objectively measured by instruments or laboratory methods.
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
There was no MRMC study conducted. This document describes the performance testing of a physical medical device (surgical face mask), not an AI-powered diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This information is not applicable as the device is a physical surgical face mask, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used
The ground truth used for these tests is based on objective measurements and chemical/biological assays as defined by recognized international and national standards (ASTM, EN, ISO, CFR). For example:
- Synthetic Blood Penetration: Measured resistance to fluid penetration at specific pressures.
- Particulate/Bacterial Filtration Efficiency: Measured percentage of particles/bacteria filtered.
- Differential Pressure: Measured breathability in mmH₂0/cm².
- Flammability: Determined by specific flame resistance classifications.
- Biocompatibility (Cytotoxicity, Skin Irritation, Sensitization): Determined by laboratory assays evaluating cellular responses or skin reactions under specified conditions.
8. The sample size for the training set

TK Safety Needle device is intended for use in the aspiration and injection of fluids for medical purposes. The TK Safety Needle is compatible for use with standard luer lock syringes. Additionally, after withdrawal of the needle from the body the attached needle safety shield can be manually activated to cover the needle immediately after use to minimize risk of accidental needle-stick.
The TK Safety Needle consists of a hypodermic needle with a hinged safety sheath attached to the needle hub. The safety sheath is simultaneously activated when manually pressed over the needle after use and prior to disposal to minimize the possibility of sharps injury. The safety sheath is activated with one-hand operation by pressing the sheath either with the finger or thumb, or by surface activation. The locking mechanism is positioned within the center and proximal end of the sheath. The hinge feature allows the medical practitioner the flexibility to adjust the sheath to its desired position for use.
The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for the "TK Safety Needle," which is a single lumen hypodermic needle with a safety shield. The submission aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the "TM Safety Needle" (K142765).
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The provided document details non-clinical testing performed against recognized ISO standards. These standards implicitly contain the acceptance criteria for various functional and safety aspects of a hypodermic needle. The report states that the device was "demonstrated to be in conformance" with these standards.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes for the functional, sterility, or biocompatibility tests. It only indicates that "the sterile, single lumen hypodermic needles described in this summary were tested." The data provenance is implied to be from Anhui Tiankang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. in China, as they are the submitter and manufacturer. The testing described is prospective, as it was conducted specifically for this submission to demonstrate conformance.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
This type of device (hypodermic needle) does not typically involve human expert interpretation for "ground truth" in the way an AI diagnostic device would. The "ground truth" for the tests performed is based on the objective measurements and pass/fail criteria defined by the cited ISO standards and USP<788>. Therefore, no experts in the sense of medical diagnosticians were used to establish ground truth.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable. As noted above, the assessment of these types of medical devices against performance standards involves objective measurements and predefined pass/fail criteria, not subjective interpretation requiring 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
No. The TK Safety Needle is a physical medical device, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, and therefore an MRMC comparative effectiveness study is not relevant or applicable.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. As a physical medical device, this question is not relevant.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The "ground truth" in this context refers to the defined specifications and limits set by the referenced international standards (e.g., ISO 7864, ISO 80369-7, ISO 10993, USP<788>). For example, the fragmentation test would have a specific maximum allowable fragmentation, and the flow rate test would have a specified range of acceptable flow rates. The device's performance is measured against these objective, predefined criteria.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This device is a physical product and does not utilize a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable for the same reason as above.
