    1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This information is not present. The letter does not specify quantitative performance metrics or acceptance thresholds.
    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not provided. There is no mention of a test set, its size, or where any data used for validation (if any) originated.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable, as no test set or ground truth establishment process is described.
    4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
    5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, and its effect size: Not applicable. The device is a physical therapy massager, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for which MRMC studies are typically performed.
    6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable, as this is a physical device, not an algorithm.
    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable.
    8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device requiring a training set in the conventional sense.
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

    The FDA 510(k) clearance process for a Multi-Function Physical Therapy Table (like the Ceragem Automatic Thermal Massager) typically relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, often through engineering performance tests and adherence to recognized standards, rather than complex clinical effectiveness studies with explicit performance metrics like those for diagnostic AI tools. The provided document is a regulatory clearance letter, not a full submission document that would detail all validation studies.

    Intended Use

    The intended use of the Ceragem Automatic Thermal Massager, Model CGM MB-1701 & CGM MB-1702 is to provide muscle relaxation therapy by delivering heat and soothing massage. Additionally, the product provides topical radiant infrared heat for:
    -Temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain stiffness
    -Temporary relief of minor joint pain associated with arthritis
    -Temporary increase in local circulation where applied

    • Relaxation of muscles
      The Air Cell Massager (only CGM MB-1701) is indicated for the temporary relief of minor muscle aches and pains and for temporary increase in blood circulation to the treated areas. The Air Cell Massager stimulates kneading of tissues by using an inflatable garment.
    Device Description

    The Ceragem Automatic Thermal Massager with Air Cell Massager is an updated version of the predicate device with an addition of a leg massaging feature. This feature utilizes an "air compression transfer," and its principle is as follows: Air Cell Massager consists of an air pump, air pressure sensor, and sleeves working together as one unit. The air pump is connected to the dedicated sleeves via a series of hoses; each sleeve has 4 compression chambers. The compression massage direction is from foot to thigh. By inflating the air chambers sequentially and then deflating as one cycle, the pressure can be adjusted to avoid any discomfort to the patient. The sleeve works under the action of sensor and microprocessor. Software controls the timing and pressure cognized to the sensor, cycling airflow into and out of sleeves to compress body.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is related to a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device (Ceragem Automatic Thermal Massager, Model CGM MB-1701 & CGM MB-1702). It discusses the device's indications for use, description, and a comparison to predicate and reference devices to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

    However, the document does not contain information about acceptance criteria, a specific study proving the device meets those criteria, sample sizes for test or training sets, data provenance, expert ground truth establishment, adjudication methods, or MRMC studies. The document specifically states "The subject device has undergone safety and performance tests, and the results conformed with the test requests," and lists several non-clinical tests (Skin Temperature Study, Usability Study, EMC and electrical safety testing, software validation, and Biocompatibility studies). These are general tests demonstrating safety and compatibility, not a study designed to evaluate performance against specific clinical acceptance criteria as typically seen for AI/ML devices.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the given text. The text does not detail a study proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria for clinical efficacy or accuracy in the way the prompt implies (e.g., for an AI/ML algorithm). The listed tests primarily focus on electrical safety, EMC, biocompatibility, software functionality, and user manual usability, which are safety and basic functional performance aspects, not clinical performance against acceptance criteria.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from Ceragem Co, Ltd. to the FDA for their Automatic Thermal Massagers, Models CGM-MB-1701 & CGM-MB-1702. The purpose of this notification is to demonstrate that their new devices are substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device (Automatic Thermal Massager, Model CGM MB-1101, K140592) and thus do not require a Premarket Approval (PMA).

    The information provided focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence based on indications for use, principle of operation, technological characteristics, and performance specifications. However, the document does not describe a study that involves an AI/algorithm to meet acceptance criteria in the way envisioned by your request.

    Specifically, the "Performance Tests (Non-clinical)" section (Page 6) details several tests conducted, but none of them are related to AI/algorithm performance. The tests are:

    • Skin temperature study: To verify heat delivery.
    • Usability study: To validate lay user operation with the manual.
    • EMC and electrical safety testing: To meet standards like ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, etc.
    • Biocompatibility tests: Cytotoxicity, skin irritation, and sensitization for new materials.
    • Firmware validation tests: To verify the software works as intended.

    The "firmware validation tests" are the closest to "algorithm" but they are for the device's operational firmware, not an AI or diagnostic algorithm assisting human readers as your prompt implies. The acceptance criteria for these tests are not detailed beyond "the test results of all the tests supported that it is substantially equivalent to the predicate device."

    Therefore, I cannot provide the detailed information requested regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving an AI/algorithm meets those criteria because the provided text does not contain such a study. The document is for a physical medical device (thermal massager) and its assessment for market clearance, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.

    To answer your specific points, based on the provided text:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Not provided in the context of an AI/algorithm. The document discusses "performance specifications" for the physical device, such as temperature range, intensity levels (1-9 vs 1-6), and massage modes (more options in the subject device), and states that a skin temperature study was performed to maintain 40-45°C. This is not for an AI.
    2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable for an AI/algorithm study. Sample sizes for the non-clinical performance tests (e.g., skin temperature, usability) are not specified.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth as typically defined for AI/diagnostic studies (e.g., expert reads, pathology reports) is not mentioned.
    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
    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, this type of study was not done as the device is a physical massager, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool.
    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable in the context of an AI/algorithm. For the device, the "ground truth" for its performance seems to be physical measurements (e.g., skin temperature, electrical safety parameters) and comparison to the predicate device's established performance ranges.
    8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

    In summary, the provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and its associated summary pertain to a physical therapeutic device (a thermal massager) and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It evaluates the fundamental safety and functional performance of the hardware, not an AI component. Therefore, the questions related to AI/algorithm performance and study design cannot be answered from this document.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Ceragem Automatic Thermal Massager, Model CGM-MB-1901. This type of document is for medical devices that are deemed substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. It focuses on demonstrating that the new device is as safe and effective as the predicate, rather than proving efficacy from scratch with extensive clinical trials like a PMA would require.

    Therefore, the information regarding acceptance criteria and studies proving the device meets those criteria in the context of efficacy, particularly for AI/Machine Learning devices, is not present in this document. This document details engineering and safety/performance testing relevant to mechanical and thermal devices, not AI performance. Specifically:

    • Acceptance Criteria for AI/ML Performance: Not applicable/not defined as this isn't an AI/ML device.
    • Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria: The studies described ("skin temperature study," "usability study," "EMC and electrical safety testing," "cytotoxicity test," "skin irritation & sensitization tests," and "firmware validation tests") are all related to the physical, electrical, and material safety and performance of a thermal massager, not the accuracy or performance of an AI algorithm.

    Let's break down what is available in the document related to testing, even though it doesn't fit the typical "acceptance criteria for an AI device" framework:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (as inferred for a thermal massager):

    Acceptance Criteria (Inferred for a Thermal Massager)Reported Device Performance (from "Performance Tests (Non-clinical)")
    Skin Temperature Control: Maintain skin temperature between 40-45°C during treatment."[The] skin temperature study was performed to verify that the subject device maintained skin temperature between 40-45 degree C during the intended treatment." (Conclusion: supported substantial equivalence)
    Usability: Lay users can operate the device with the provided User Manual."The usability study was performed to validate that the lay users can use the subject device only with the User Manual provided." (Conclusion: supported substantial equivalence)
    Electrical Safety & EMC: Compliance with relevant standards (ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-6, IEC 60601-1-11)."The EMC and electrical safety testing were conducted on the subject device in accordance with ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-6, and IEC 60601-1-11." (Conclusion: supported substantial equivalence)
    Biocompatibility (New Materials): Absence of cytotoxicity, skin irritation, and sensitization for patient-contacting materials."The cytotoxicity test per ISO 10993-5 and skin irritation & sensitization tests per ISO 10993-10 were performed to evaluate the safety of the new materials which contact the patients." (Conclusion: supported substantial equivalence)
    Software/Firmware Functionality: Firmware works as intended. (Level of concern: Moderate)"The level of concern for the subject device SW is moderate and the validation tests were performed to verify that the firmware works as intended." (Conclusion: supported substantial equivalence)
    Heating Performance (Abdominal Vibration Projector): Able to heat skin to 40-45°C within 15-20 minutes and maintain this temperature."Similar to the predicate device, the subject device was able to heat skin to 40-45 degree C within 15-20 minutes. During the intended treatment the subject device maintained skin temperature between 40-45 degree C."

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

    • The document does not specify sample sizes for these performance and safety tests (e.g., number of subjects in the skin temperature or usability study, number of material samples for biocompatibility).
    • Data Provenance: Not specified (e.g., country of origin). The studies appear to be non-clinical (laboratory/in-house testing) with a potential small human component for skin temperature and usability. They are not referred to as retrospective or prospective clinical studies 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/not specified. The studies described are engineering, safety, and basic human factor (usability) tests, not diagnostic accuracy studies requiring expert readers to establish ground truth.

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

    • Not applicable. This is not a study requiring reader adjudication for diagnostic accuracy.

    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, an MRMC study was not done. This device is not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive device.

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

    • No, this is not an AI/ML device. "Standalone performance" is not relevant here.

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

    • Ground truth in the typical AI/ML sense (e.g., confirmed disease status) is not relevant. The "ground truth" for the tests performed would be:
      • Skin Temperature: Measured temperature readings.
      • Usability: Observation of user interaction and completion of tasks using the manual.
      • Electrical Safety/EMC: Compliance with standard thresholds and test procedures.
      • Biocompatibility: Laboratory results showing absence of toxic or irritating reactions.
      • Firmware: Expected functional outputs/behaviors.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

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

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

    • Not applicable.

    Intended Use

    The intended use of the CERAGEM-C Thermal Massager is to provide muscle relaxation therapy by delivering heat and soothing massage. Additionally, the Ceragem-C Thermal Massager provides radiant infrared heat for,
    temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain, and stiffness
    the temporary relief of minor joint pain associated with arthritis
    the temporary increase in local circulation where applied
    relaxation of muscles

    Device Description

    The CERAGEM-C Thermal Massager is an electrically powered motorized multi-functional physical therapy table. Its intended use is to provide muscle relaxation therapy by delivering heat and soothing The massage function is delivered by massage rollers mounted on an independent carriage massage. underneath a pad on the table torso section. The heat function is delivered by two components (1) heated jade massage rollers mounted together on the moving carriage and (2) heated Epoxy Carbon Panels. In both cases, the radiant infrared heat is emitted. Together, the massage action and heated pressure points apply light pressure as well as radiant infrared heat to the user.

    AI/ML Overview

    The Ceragem-C Thermal Massager is not a device that would require AI performance metrics or a clinical study in the traditional sense, as it is a physical therapy device. The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device that aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not to prove performance against specific acceptance criteria using a study with AI.

    However, I can extract the "acceptance criteria" through the lens of regulatory compliance and the "study" as the comparison made to the predicate device.

    Here's an interpretation based on the provided text:

    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (in the context of regulatory equivalence):

    Acceptance Criteria (Regulatory)Reported Device Performance (as demonstrated for equivalence)
    Same intended useThe CERAGEM-C Thermal Massager has the same intended use as the predicate device (Migun HY5000 Thermassage Energy Product).
    Same indications for useThe CERAGEM-C Thermal Massager has the same indications for use as the predicate device: muscle relaxation therapy, temporary relief of minor muscle/joint pain and stiffness, temporary relief of minor joint pain associated with arthritis, temporary increase in local circulation, and relaxation of muscles.
    Same intended populationThe CERAGEM-C Thermal Massager has the same intended population.
    Similar functional and performance characteristicsBoth devices use massage rollers and heat. The CERAGEM-C emits topical radiant infrared heat (5-20 microns) from jade rollers (heated by light bulbs), similar to the predicate.
    No new safety or effectiveness issues raised by new componentsThe addition of three Epoxy Carbon Panels does not raise new safety or effectiveness issues as the temperature never exceeds the maximal temperature of the predicate device.
    Compliance with established safety standards (e.g., electrical)The CERAGEM-C and the predicate device both have and meet UL 60601-1:1997, CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 601.1-M90, EN 60601-1 (1990), IEC 60601-1, and IEC 60601-2-38 (1996).

    Since this is a 510(k) submission for a non-AI physical therapy device, the following points are not applicable or do not have direct analogues in the provided text:

    1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. No test set data in the conventional sense was used for performance evaluation of an AI algorithm. Equivalence was established via comparison to a predicate device and adherence to safety standards.
    2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. No "ground truth" for a test set was established in this context.
    3. Adjudication method: Not applicable. There was no need for adjudication as it was not an AI performance study measuring agreement.
    4. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: No, an MRMC study was not done. The device is a physical therapy massager, not an AI diagnostic tool.
    5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm.
    6. The type of ground truth used: Not applicable in the context of an AI study. The "ground truth" in this regulatory context is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate device and compliance with recognized safety standards.
    7. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm.
    8. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm.
