    Intended Use

    FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EI-740D/S is intended for the upper digestive tract, specifically for the observation, diagnosis, and endoscopic treatment of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.

    This device is also intended for the visualization of the lower digestive tract, specifically for the observation, diagnosis, and endoscopic treatment of the rectum and sigmoid colon.

    Never use this product for any other purposes.

    Device Description

    FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EI-740D/S is comprised of three general sections: a control portion, an insertion portion and an umbilicus. The control portion controls the angulation of the endoscope. The insertion portion contains glass fiber bundles, several channels and a charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor in its distal end. The channels in the insertion portion assist in delivering air/suction as well as endoscope accessories, such as forceps. The glass fiber bundles allow light to travel through the endoscope and emit light from the tip of the insertion portion to illuminate the body cavity. This provides enough light to the CCD image sensor to capture an image and display it on the monitor. The umbilicus consists of electronic components needed to operate the endoscope when plugged in to the video processor and the light source. The endoscope is used in combination with FUJIFILM's video processor, FUJIFILM's light sources and peripheral devices such as monitor, printer, foot switch, and cart.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) summary for the FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EI-740D/S, seeking to prove substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Endoscope Model EI-740D/S, K210162). The focus of this submission is on demonstrating safety and performance equivalence, primarily through reprocessing validation and electrical/photobiological safety.

    Therefore, the information typically found in a clinical study for an AI/ML powered device, which would include detailed acceptance criteria for diagnostic performance, sample sizes, expert adjudication, and ground truth establishment, is not present in this document.

    The document details the following regarding the device and its validation:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

    The document focuses on the equivalence of the proposed device to the predicate device, especially concerning reprocessing validation and safety standards, rather than diagnostic performance criteria in the context of an AI/ML algorithm.

    Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance
    Reprocessing ValidationThe proposed device was adopted into the cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization validation of the predicate device. Performed in accordance with FDA guidance, "Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Settings: Validation Methods and Label1ng, issued March 17, 2015." Delayed reprocessing instructions were validated.
    Oxygen Saturation Measurement (OXEI mode)The proposed device was adopted into the StO2 measurement testing performed on the EX-0 Oxygen Saturation Image Processor paired with the Endoscope Model EG-740N (K203717).
    EMC and Electrical SafetyEvaluated using standards: ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1:2012, IEC 60601-1-2:2014, and IEC 60601-2-18:2009.

    Biocompatibility and Performance TestingThe proposed device can be adopted into the biocompatibility and performance testing of the predicate device (K210162) due to no modification in material construction, patient contact type/duration, or other technological characteristics.

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

    This document does not provide information on a "test set" in the context of an AI/ML diagnostic study. The performance evaluation is based on technical and safety validations rather than a clinical outcome study with a patient data test set.

    3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth:

    Not applicable, as this is a 510(k) submission for an endoscope demonstrating substantial equivalence, not an AI/ML diagnostic study requiring expert ground truth establishment for clinical performance.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    Not applicable for the reasons stated above.

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

    No MRMC study was conducted or reported in this 510(k) summary. The device is an endoscope, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool for which MRMC studies are typically performed to assess human reader improvement with AI assistance.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance:

    Not applicable. This is a medical device (endoscope), not a standalone AI algorithm.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

    The "ground truth" in this context refers to established engineering and medical device standards for safety and performance (e.g., successful reprocessing, adherence to electrical safety standards). There is no "ground truth" derived from patient outcomes or expert consensus on disease diagnosis for an AI algorithm.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

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

    AI/ML Overview

    This document does not contain information about a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the manner typically seen for AI/ML-driven devices. Instead, it describes a 510(k) premarket notification for updated medical devices (Endoscope and accessories) that aim to demonstrate substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices.

    The "acceptance criteria" here are inherent to the regulatory process of demonstrating substantial equivalence for traditional medical devices, focusing on safety and effectiveness compared to existing devices rather than a performance benchmark against a clinical gold standard using a specific test set.

    Here's an breakdown based on the document's content:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Instead of a table with specific numerical performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, AUC), the "acceptance criteria" are compliance with relevant safety and performance standards for medical devices, and the "reported device performance" is the successful completion of testing to demonstrate this compliance and substantial equivalence to predicate devices.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
    Sterility (for TS-1314B and BS-4)Evaluated using ISO 11135:2014, ISO 10993-7:2008/AMD1:2019, ISO 11607-1:2019, ISO 11607-2:2019, ISO 11737-1:2018, and ISO 11138-1:2017 with acceptable results.
    Biocompatibility (for new accessory materials)Evaluated using ISO 10993-1:2018, ISO 10993-5:2009, ISO 10993-10:2010, and ISO 10993-12:2012, in accordance with FDA guidance, with acceptable results.
    Endoscope Specific Performance (EN-580T)Conducted according to ISO 8600-1:2015, ISO 8600-3:2019, and ISO 8600-4:2014 with acceptable results.
    Endoscope Compatibility with New AccessoriesConducted with acceptable results.
    Functional Equivalence (to predicate devices)Demonstrated through comparison of intended use, principle of operation, technical characteristics (Tables 1-4), and material construction (Tables 5-6). Differences were evaluated and found acceptable.
    Product Expiration (for TS-1314B and BS-4)Product expiration of 3 years (predicate devices were 2 years). No specific acceptance criteria for this change are provided beyond the fact that it's a change.
    Storage and Transport Environment (for TS-1314B and BS-4)Revised temperature and humidity ranges. No specific acceptance criteria for these changes are provided beyond the fact that they are changes.

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

    This document does not describe a "test set" in the context of AI/ML evaluation (e.g., a set of medical images or patient cases). The performance data cited refers to standard engineering and biological testing (sterility, biocompatibility, endoscope-specific tests). Therefore, information on sample size or data provenance for such a "test set" is not applicable or provided here.

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

    Not applicable. Ground truth, in this context, would imply expert annotations or diagnoses on patient data. This document describes the substantial equivalence of physical medical devices and their components, not an AI/ML algorithm's diagnostic performance. Therefore, no experts were used to establish ground truth for a test set in this manner.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable, as there is no diagnostic "test set" to adjudicate.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Effect Size of Human Improvement with vs. without AI Assistance

    No. This document does not pertain to AI or an AI-assisted device. Therefore, no MRMC study or AI-related effectiveness assessment was conducted or reported.

    6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done

    No. This document does not pertain to an algorithm or AI device.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for this submission is compliance with established international and FDA standards for medical device safety and performance. This is confirmed through laboratory testing for sterility, biocompatibility, and functional performance, rather than clinical outcomes or pathology data.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable, as there is no AI/ML algorithm involved, and thus no "training set."

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

    Not applicable, as there is no AI/ML algorithm and training set.

    Intended Use

    FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EB-710P is a bronchoscope intended for the observation, diagnosis and endoscopic treatment of the trachea and bronchus at medical facilities under the management of physicians.

    Never use this product for any other purposes.

    Device Description

    FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EB-710P is comprised of three general sections: an insertion portion, a control portion, and a connector portion to the peripherals. The insertion is flexible and contains glass fiber bundles, several channels, and a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor in its distal end. The glass fiber bundles allow light to travel through the endoscope and emit light from the tip of the insertion portion to illuminate the body cavity. This provides enough light to the CMOS image sensor to capture an image and display it on the monitor. The channels in the insertion portion assist in delivering suction as well as endoscopic accessories. The control portion controls the angulation and rotation of the bending portion in the insertion portion. The connector portion consists of electronic components needed to operate the endoscope when connected to the video processor. The endoscopes are used in combination with FUJIFILM's video processors, light sources, and peripheral devices such as monitor, printer, foot switch, and cart.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes the 510(k) premarket notification for the FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EB-710P. It details the device, its intended use, comparison to predicate/reference devices, and performance data. However, the document does not describe an AI/ML-driven device or a study involving human readers and AI assistance.

    Therefore, many of the requested criteria related to AI/ML performance, human reader studies, ground truth establishment for AI models, and sample sizes for training/test sets for AI are not applicable to this document. This document pertains to a traditional medical device (an endoscope) and its clearance based on substantial equivalence.

    I will address the applicable criteria based on the information provided in the document.


    Analysis of Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EB-710P)

    This document describes the 510(k) premarket notification for a physical medical device, the FUJIFILM Endoscope Model EB-710P, not an AI or software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD) product. Therefore, the acceptance criteria and study described are for the physical performance and safety of the endoscope itself, primarily through bench testing and compliance with recognized standards, rather than clinical performance metrics of an AI model like sensitivity, specificity, or reader improvement.

    The "acceptance criteria" here refer to meeting performance specifications and regulatory standards demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document lists performance specifications and states that the proposed device met them. It does not present a formal "acceptance criteria vs. reported performance" table in the way one might for an AI model's accuracy metrics, but rather as statements of compliance.

    Other Performance SpecsField of view, Bending capability, Working length, Diameter of forceps channel, LG output, Rate of suction, Viewing direction.The proposed device met performance specifications in these additional testing areas and demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

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

    The document does not specify a "sample size" in the context of clinical studies for diagnostic accuracy, as it is a device clearance for an endoscope based on engineering and bench testing, and demonstrating substantial equivalence. The "test set" here refers to the physical units and materials used for various engineering and safety tests. No patient data or clinical imagery is referenced for performance testing in this document.

    • Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of a clinical test set for AI/ML. The tests are performed on the device itself and components.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical data. The tests are laboratory/bench tests on the device.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

    Not applicable. Ground truth for an AI/ML model for diagnostic purposes is not relevant for the clearance of a physical endoscope itself. The "ground truth" for this device's performance would be the objective measurements and accepted standards in engineering and medical device testing.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) are common in clinical studies where human readers interpret medical images, often to establish ground truth or evaluate reader performance. This is not describing such a study.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

    No. This document does not mention an MRMC study. MRMC studies are typically performed for AI-assisted diagnostic devices to assess how AI affects reader performance.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for this device's regulatory clearance is established by:

    • Performance Specifications: The defined objective measurements and technical requirements for the endoscope's functions (e.g., resolution, field of view, bending capability).
    • Consensus Standards: Adherence to recognized national and international standards for medical device safety, biocompatibility, electrical safety, software, and reprocessing (e.g., ISO, IEC, ANSI/AAM).
    • Predicate Device Performance: The performance characteristics of the previously cleared predicate device, which the proposed device must be substantially equivalent to.
    • Bench Testing Data: Direct measurements obtained from laboratory testing of the device.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

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

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

    Not applicable. As this is not an AI/ML device, there is no training set or associated ground truth establishment process as defined for AI/ML.

    StO2 Measurement Performance (Bench)Subject device performs comparably to the reference device (T-Stat K081233) with a dissolved oxygen meter as a gold standard, using 7 different blood-based phantoms.Results demonstrated that the subject device performs comparably to the reference device, T-Stat (K081233), with respect to monitoring StO2 levels when compared against a dissolved oxygen meter as a gold standard using 7 blood-based phantoms.
    StO2 Measurement Performance (Animal - Laparoscopic Visualization)Adequate images showing visualization of the device and StO2 overlay. Acknowledge variability in StO2 measurements (up to ~29.8% between subject and reference devices) while demonstrating adequate visualization.Study 1 showed variability between subject and reference devices of approximately 29.8%, potentially due to StO2 variability within observed tissues. However, adequate images were provided to show visualization of the device, as well as the StO2 overlay, which were considered acceptable.
    StO2 Measurement Performance (Animal - Endoscopic Monitoring)Subject device can monitor/measure StO2 levels in a clinically relevant setting (e.g., in a large animal model under controlled conditions of decreasing arterial oxygen saturation). Correlation of results with the reference device should be demonstrated.Study 2 demonstrated that the subject device could monitor/measure StO2 levels in a clinically relevant setting (endoscopically in 4 minipigs with SpO2 decreased from 100% to 60%). A correlation of results with the reference device was compared for performance evaluation (results implicitly acceptable as the conclusion states the device monitors StO2 comparably).
    StO2 Measurement Performance (Animal - Open Surgery Comparability)Subject device measures/monitors StO2 comparably to the reference device under controlled conditions (e.g., in an open surgery setting with minimized tissue movement), with acceptable differences in StO2 readings. Maximum difference in StO2 readings should be within an acceptable range (e.g., up to ~11.4%).Study 3 demonstrated that the subject device measures/monitors the StO2 comparably to the reference device, with differences in StO2 readings up to 11.4%. This finding was similar to the bench testing results, establishing that EX-0 may be used as an adjunctive monitor of hemoglobin oxygenation.

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

    • Bench Testing: 7 different blood-based phantoms. Data provenance is not explicitly stated but implies laboratory (benchtop) testing.
    • Animal Testing:
      • Study 1 (Laparoscopic): Number of animals not specified, but involved "a visualization study."
      • Study 2 (Endoscopic): 4 female Göttingen minipigs.
      • Study 3 (Open Surgery): 3 swine.
    • Data Provenance (Animal Studies): Live animal studies, likely conducted in a controlled laboratory environment. No specific country of origin is mentioned for the animal studies, but the entire submission is to the U.S. FDA. The details provided (e.g., "female Göttingen minipigs at 11 months of age") suggest prospective data collection.

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

    • Bench Testing: A "dissolved oxygen meter" was used as the "gold standard" for StO2 measurements. This is an objective measurement tool, not human experts.
    • Animal Testing: The document does not specify the use of human experts to establish ground truth for the StO2 measurements. The reference device (T-Stat 303 Microvascular Tissue Oximeter) served as a comparator, and the study focused on the comparability of the subject device's measurements to the reference device and, implicitly, to the physiological changes induced (e.g., decreased arterial oxygen saturation).

    4. Adjudication method for the test set:

    Not applicable. The ground truth for StO2 measurement was established by an objective "gold standard" (dissolved oxygen meter in bench testing) or by comparison to a legally marketed predicate/reference device and physiological changes in animal models. No human adjudication is mentioned for the StO2 measurements.

    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 comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device (Image Processing Unit EX-0) acts as an "adjunctive monitor" of StO2. The studies described focus on the device's ability to measure StO2 accurately and comparably to a reference device, not on improving human reader performance in interpreting images with AI assistance versus without it. This device itself is an "adjunctive tool," not specifically an AI assisting human interpretation of images for diagnosis, but rather providing a quantifiable physiological parameter (StO2).

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

    Yes, the performance testing of the StO2 measurement function appears to be a standalone evaluation of the device's capability to measure and display StO2 levels. The bench testing directly compared the device's output to a gold standard, and the animal studies evaluated the device's measurements against a reference device's measurements and induced physiological states. The language suggests the device outputs StO2 values or color-coded images autonomously, without direct human intervention in the measurement process itself, though a human interprets the displayed information.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • Bench Testing: Dissolved oxygen meter (objective measurement, considered a "gold standard").
    • Animal Testing:
      • Comparison to a legally marketed reference device (T-Stat 303 Microvascular Tissue Oximeter).
      • Induced physiological states (e.g., decreasing arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) to simulate ischemic states). These physiological changes and the measurements from the reference device serve as the de-facto ground truth for evaluating the subject device's performance in a living system.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    Not applicable. The document describes performance testing for a 510(k) submission, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This typically involves verification and validation testing, not the development and training of an AI algorithm from a training set. The Image Processing Unit EX-0 processes existing endoscopic image data to display StO2; it is not presented as a machine learning or AI-driven diagnostic tool that requires a training set in the conventional sense.

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

    Not applicable, as no training set is described for this device in the provided document.

    Note: The document describes "benchmark performance testing" for segmentation, detection, and registration, implying a quantitative assessment (achieved "expected accuracy"). However, the specific numerical acceptance criteria or performance metrics are not disclosed in this document. The "All tests passed successfully" statements refer to the system-level validation against general design specifications and intended use, not necessarily against predefined numerical accuracy thresholds for clinical tasks.


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

    • Sample Size: The document mentions "actual clinical images" were used for benchmark performance testing. However, the sample size (number of cases/images) used for any of the testing (system-level, benchmark, etc.) is not specified.
    • Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin of the data or whether the data was retrospective or prospective. It only states "actual clinical images."

    3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth

    The document states that "Synapse 3D Cardiac Tools is intended to provide trained medical professionals with tools to aid them in reading, interpreting, reporting, and treatment planning." However, it does not specify how many experts were used to establish the ground truth for the test set, nor does it detail their qualifications (e.g., "radiologist with 10 years of experience").


    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    The document does not describe any adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) used for establishing the ground truth of the test set.


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

    A multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study is not described in the provided text. The document does not mention any studies evaluating human reader improvement with or without AI assistance.


    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

    The text describes "benchmark performance testing was conducted using actual clinical images to help demonstrate that the semi-automatic or automatic segmentation, detection, and registration functions implemented in Synapse 3D Cardiac Tools achieved the expected accuracy performance." This implies a standalone evaluation of the algorithm's performance for these specific functions. However, the results (e.g., specific accuracy metrics) of this standalone performance are not provided.


    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    For the "benchmark performance testing" of segmentation, detection, and registration, it implies a ground truth was used to assess "expected accuracy performance." However, the exact type of ground truth (e.g., expert consensus, pathology, outcome data) is not explicitly stated. It's common in such tools for ground truth to be established by expert manual annotation or consensus, but this is not confirmed in the text.


    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    The document does not provide any information regarding a training set, its sample size, or how its ground truth was established. This suggests that the device, or at least the version being evaluated, might be more of a sophisticated image processing and visualization tool with semi-automatic functions rather than a deep learning-based AI device requiring extensive training data in the modern sense. The "benchmark performance testing" focuses on the accuracy of its segmentation, detection, and registration functions, which could be rule-based or model-based, but the origin of any models is not described.


    9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    As no training set is mentioned, this information is not available in the provided text.
