TransForm™ McCarthy Mitral Annuloplasty Ring (TF) is indicated for use in patients undergoing surgery for diseased or damaged mitral valves. The ring provides support for and restricts expansion of the mitral annulus.

The TransForm™ McCarthy Mitral Annuloplasty Ring is an implantable, semi-rigid annuloplasty ring for mitral valve repair with the stiffened portions at the anterior and posterior segments. The ring is flexible at the commissure regions to allow physiological movement of the annulus. Stiffener placement allows the ring to maintain its "D" saddle shape during systole and a flat planar "O" shape in diastole. The stiffeners consist of MP35N 0.71 mm diameter (polished and formed) alloy. An elastic silicone core and braided polyester fabric form the ring body. The TransForm™ Annuloplasty Ring has four green radial markers: two markers at the left and right trigones and two markers at the mid-anterior and mid-posterior. The ring conforms to the natural mitral annulus throughout the cardiac cycle. The interrupted stiffeners within the silicone core provide semi-rigid elastic flexibility. Elasticity of the "D" to "O" or circular transformation, accommodates remodeling of the annulus, while creating inward forces to maintain circular annular geometry against physical expansion. The size range of TransForm™ is from 24mm to 40mm with 2mm increments. Size refers to the internal CC diameter of the ring. Rings are intended to be implanted on the patient's mitral annulus to reduce and stabilize the annulus.

This FDA 510(k) clearance letter details the review of a new medical device, the TransForm™ McCarthy Mitral Annuloplasty Ring, for substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

This document describes the 510(k) summary for the NeoForm™ Annuloplasty Ring, Model 4200. This is a medical device and the submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than providing performance metrics against specific acceptance criteria for an AI/algorithm-based device.

Therefore, many of the requested points, such as specific acceptance criteria related to AI performance, sample sizes for test sets in an AI context, expert qualifications for ground truth in AI, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, and training set details, are not applicable to this type of medical device submission.

Here's a breakdown of the relevant information from the provided text:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not present quantitative acceptance criteria for the performance of the annuloplasty ring in a numerical or statistical sense as one would expect for an AI algorithm. Instead, the "acceptance " is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through functional and safety testing. The reported "performance" is that the device met these requirements and is equivalent to the predicate.

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

• Sample Size: The document states "representative samples of the devices underwent testing" for functional and safety tests. Specific sample sizes for each test are not provided.
• Data Provenance: The data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is not specified in this summary.

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

This is not applicable as this is not an AI/algorithm-based device and does not involve establishing ground truth from expert readings in that context. The "truth" for the device's functional and safety performance is based on engineering and materials science standards and testing.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

This is not applicable as there is no expert reading or interpretation requiring adjudication in the context of an AI/algorithm.

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

This is not applicable. This device is an annuloplasty ring, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or treatment tool.

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

This is not applicable. This is a physical medical implant, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

The "ground truth" for this medical device is established by:

• Engineering specifications and design requirements: The device's physical properties, materials, and mechanical behavior.
• Performance against established standards: Biocompatibility standards, sterilization efficacy, material strength standards, etc.
• Comparison to a legally marketed predicate device: Demonstrating that the new device performs similarly or equivalently to a device already deemed safe and effective.

8. The sample size for the training set

This is not applicable as this is not an AI/algorithm-based device.

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

This is not applicable as this is not an AI/algorithm-based device.

The FlexForm™ Annuloplasty Ring and FlexForm™ Annuloplasty Band are indicated for use in patients undergoing surgery of diseased or damaged mitral or tricuspid valves in whom the surgeon determines that the valve can be preserved by employing the appropriate surgical repair. The annuloplasty rings and bands provide support for the mitral or tricuspid annulus and restrict expansion of the annulus.

The FlexForm™ Annuloplasty Ring and FlexForm™ Annuloplasty Band are fully flexible annular rings and bands designed to reduce and stabilize the valve annulus in patients undergoing mitral or tricuspid repair.

The rings and bands are made of braided polyester fabric. The ring and band contain a circumferential flexible radiopaque marker. The internal radiopaque marker provides radiographic visualization along the entire circumference.

The rings and bands are available in nine sizes: 24 mm; 26 mm; 28 mm; 30 mm; 32 mm; 34 mm, 36 mm, 38 mm and 40 mm. The size refers to the inner circumference between the green suture markers nearest the anterior location of the ring and band. FlexForm™ Sizers, Model FRBS, are used to determine the correct size of the ring or band.

The differences between the ring and band are as follows: The FlexForm™ Ring is a complete annular ring. Five markers are provided on the ring; two markers indicate the approximate location of the trigones; three additional markers are provided as an aid to suture placement in the posterior section.

The FlexForm™ Band is a partial ring, without an anterior segment. The key dimensions are the same as the FlexForm Annuloplasty Ring, except for the absence of the anterior segment. Five markers are provided on the band; two markers indicate the approximate location of the trigones; three markers are provided as an aid to suture placement in the posterior section.

The choice of ring or band is based on surgeon preference.

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (FlexForm™ Annuloplasty Ring and FlexForm™ Annuloplasty Band). This type of document is submitted to the FDA to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving that a new device meets specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study.

• Comparison to a Predicate Device: Demonstrating that the new device has the same intended use, similar technological characteristics, and raises no new questions of safety or effectiveness compared to an already cleared device.
• Non-Clinical Testing: Typically involves bench testing (e.g., tensile strength, fatigue, sterilization validation, biocompatibility) to show the device meets engineering specifications and standards, but not direct clinical outcomes or diagnostic performance.

Based on the provided text, here's what can be extracted, and what cannot be:

Information Available:

• 1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

  • Acceptance Criteria (Implied): The device passed various performance tests to ensure it meets functional and performance requirements. The specific numerical acceptance criteria are not provided.
  • Reported Device Performance (as listed in "Non-Clinical Tests"):
    • Tensile strength of ring body materials
    • Tensile strength of construction sutures
    • Suture pull-out testing
    • (NOTE: The actual numerical results of these tests and how they compare to specific acceptance criteria are not included in this summary.)

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

  • N/A: This device is a physical annuloplasty ring/band, not an AI algorithm. Therefore, "standalone performance" in the context of an algorithm is not applicable. The device underwent "Functional and Safety Testing" which are non-clinical hardware tests.

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

  • For the non-clinical tests (tensile strength, suture pull-out), the "ground truth" would be the engineering specifications and established test methodologies for material properties. This is implicitly linked to industry standards and regulatory guidance for medical devices, rather than expert consensus on clinical data or pathology. Specific details are not provided.

• 8. The sample size for the training set:

  • N/A: This is a physical medical device, not an AI algorithm that requires a training set. The "samples" referred to are representative physical samples of the manufactured device used for non-clinical testing.

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

  • N/A: Not applicable for a physical device.

Information NOT Available in this Document:

• 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 mentions "representative samples" for testing, but does not specify the number of samples for each test, nor the "data provenance" as this refers to clinical data, which was not used for this type of submission.
• 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)
  • N/A: No clinical study involving expert ground truth for a test set is described here. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests would be the predetermined engineering specifications, not expert clinical consensus.
• 4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
  • N/A: No clinical study or expert review of a test set is described.
• 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
  • N/A: This is a physical device, not an AI diagnostic tool, so MRMC studies and "human readers" improving with AI are not relevant.

In summary, as this is a 510(k) summary for a physical medical device, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence through non-clinical performance and material characterization, rather than clinical studies with human "readers" or algorithms that would involve the extensive details requested in your prompt.
