    Intended Use

    The ADMIRAL XTREME™ (PTA) Catheter is intended to dilate stenoses in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal, and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae.

    Device Description

    The ADMIRAL XTREME™ PTA Catheter is an OTW PTA catheter with a semi-compliant inflatable balloon mounted at the distal tip. It is a dual lumen catheter with a guidewire lumen and a balloon inflation lumen. The catheter tapers beneath the balloon segment to achieve the lowest possible deflated profile. Two radiopaque marker bands are placed under the balloon segment of the catheter shaft to provide visual reference points for balloon positioning within the vessel. The distal catheter shaft and balloon cones are hydrophilic coated (balloon excluded). The maximum recommended guidewire diameter is 0.035". The device is available in balloon diameters of 3-12mm, balloon lengths of 20, 40, 60, 80 and 120mm and catheter lengths of 80 and 130cm.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the ADMIRAL XTREME™ Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) Catheter. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device rather than presenting a clinical study with acceptance criteria for a novel device's performance.

    Therefore, many of the requested details about acceptance criteria, clinical studies, sample sizes, and expert validation are not applicable as this submission is for a medical device cleared via the 510(k) pathway, which relies on demonstrating equivalence to an already approved device rather than proving clinical efficacy or diagnostic accuracy through a standalone study.

    However, I can extract the relevant information regarding the performance data provided to establish equivalence.

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

    Since this is a 510(k) submission for a non-diagnostic device, the "acceptance criteria" are related to in vitro engineering performance equivalence rather than clinical outcomes or diagnostic metrics. The document states that the testing "met the specified requirements" and were "comparable with the predicate device." Specific numerical acceptance values are not provided in this summary.

    Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Implicit: Comparable to Predicate Device & Met Specified Requirements)Reported Device Performance
    Balloon ComplianceComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Balloon Burst PressureComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Balloon FatigueComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Shaft Burst PressureComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Bond StrengthComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Catheter DimensionsComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Deflation TimeComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Guidewire CompatibilityCompatible with 0.035" guidewires; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    Introducer CompatibilityComparable to predicate device; met specified requirementsDemonstrated equivalent performance
    BiocompatibilityAll materials used are biocompatible based on testing resultsAll materials are biocompatible

    2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

    • Sample Size: Not specified for any of the in vitro tests.
    • Data Provenance: The testing was "in vitro," implying laboratory testing rather than human subject data. Country of origin not specified, but the manufacturer is Invatec Innovative Technologies in Roncadelle (BS) Italy, and the submitter is ev3 Inc. in Plymouth, MN, USA.
    • Retrospective or Prospective: Not applicable for in vitro laboratory testing.

    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)

    Not applicable. This device's performance was evaluated through engineering in vitro testing; it does not involve expert-established ground truth like in a diagnostic AI study.

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

    Not applicable. There was no human expert adjudication of test results in the context of 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

    Not applicable. This is a physical medical device (catheter), not an AI diagnostic tool. No MRMC study was conducted.

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

    Not applicable. This is a physical medical device (catheter), not an algorithm.

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

    Not applicable. The "ground truth" for the performance evaluation of this catheter was based on established engineering specifications and benchmarks to demonstrate equivalence to the predicate device. For example, balloon burst pressure would have a specified engineering tolerance rather than an expert consensus.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device; therefore, there is no "training set."

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

    Not applicable. As there is no training set.

    Intended Use

    The AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA Balloon Catheter is intended to dilate stenoses in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal, and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae.

    Device Description

    The AMPHIRION DEEP catheter is a coaxial lumen device with a semi-compliant balloon. The lumen marked "WIRE" is the central lumen of the catheter, which terminates at the distal tip. This lumen is used to pass the catheter over a guidewire with a maximum outer diameter of 0.014". The lumen marked "BALLOON" is the balloon inflation lumen, which is used to inflate and deflate the dilatation balloon. The catheter tapers beneath the balloon segment to achieve the lowest possible deflated profile. Two radiopaque marker bands are placed under the balloon segment of the catheter shaft to provide visual reference points for balloon positioning within the vessel. The distal catheter shaft is hydrophilic coated.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA Balloon Catheter. It's a submission to the FDA to demonstrate that the modified device is "substantially equivalent" to an already marketed device, meaning it's equally safe and effective.

    Here's the breakdown of the information requested, based on the provided text:

    Acceptance Criteria and Study Details:

    The provided document does not detail specific acceptance criteria in terms of numerical performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) or a study proving these criteria were met using those metrics. Instead, the document focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device through performance testing (bench testing) and similarity in intended use, materials, and technological characteristics.

    Therefore, a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance, and most of the detailed questions about studies, cannot be directly answered from the provided text as they relate to clinical effectiveness studies with human subjects or AI algorithm performance.

    However, based on the available information, we can infer the acceptance criteria for a 510(k) submission of this type:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

    Acceptance Criteria CategoryDescription (Inferred)Reported Device Performance
    Substantial EquivalenceThe modified device must be substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device in intended use, materials, and technological characteristics.The document explicitly states: "The modified device is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed PTA balloon catheter in intended use, materials, technological characteristics and performance." This claim is made based on the comparison to the predicate.
    Performance (Bench)The device's physical and functional properties must meet established design specifications and demonstrate performance consistent with its intended use and comparative to the predicate device."Performance testing (bench) further supports a substantial equivalence claim." While specific numerical results are not provided, the testing was deemed sufficient to support the claim.
    Safety & EffectivenessThe device must be safe and effective for its intended use.The collective evidence (substantial equivalence in characteristics and performance testing) "provides assurance that the AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA Balloon Catheter meets the requirements that are considered acceptable for the intended use."

    Important Note: The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence, not on providing efficacy and safety data from clinical trials in the way an AI algorithm or a novel drug might. The "acceptance criteria" here are primarily satisfied by demonstrating that the device is fundamentally the same as a previously approved device.


    The following questions relate to performance studies, often associated with AI/ML devices or clinical trials. Since this document is a 510(k) for a physical medical device (a balloon catheter) demonstrating substantial equivalence, these specific types of studies are not described or relevant in this context.

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. This document refers to bench testing, not a clinical test set with patient data.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for clinical data is not relevant to this 510(k) submission.
    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: Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI diagnostic tool.
    6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is a physical medical device.
    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable to a clinical test set from patient data. The "ground truth" for the bench testing would be engineering specifications and predicate device performance.
    8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This device does not involve a "training set" in the context of AI/ML or statistical modeling from data.
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

The catheter is compatible with guide wires with a maximum diameter of 0.014". Additionally, a 40u filter basket is also included to allow the physician to perform a post-procedure examination of the aspirated thrombi/emboli material removed during the procedure.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the DIVER C.E. Catheter, a medical device. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving novel effectiveness or specific performance metrics against pre-defined clinical acceptance criteria.

    Therefore, the document does not contain the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details (sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, adjudication methods), or comparative effectiveness studies (MRMC).

    The section "Summary of Testing" states: "Performance Data: The results of verification testing demonstrated that the DIVER C.E. Catheter and its accessories met the established acceptance criteria and performs in a manner equivalent to the predicate devices. No new safety or effectiveness issues were raised during the testing program."

    However, the specific acceptance criteria and the detailed results of the study that "prove" the device meets them are not provided in this document. The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence through comparison of technological characteristics and intended use, and confirming sterilization validation and general performance testing.

    Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what is missing:

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

    • Missing. The document states that "established acceptance criteria" were met, but does not list them or the specific performance values.

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

    • Missing. The document mentions "verification testing" but does not provide details on sample sizes, country of origin, or whether the study was retrospective or prospective.

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

    • Missing. No information on experts or ground truth establishment for a test set is provided. This type of detail is typically not part of a 510(k) summary focused on substantial equivalence.

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

    • Missing. Not applicable given the document's content.

    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:

    • Missing. This device is a catheter, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. Therefore, an MRMC study related to AI assistance is not applicable.

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

    • Missing. Not applicable as this is a physical medical device (catheter), not an algorithm.

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

    • Missing. The document refers to "verification testing" and equivalence to predicate devices, not clinical ground truth establishment in the context of diagnostic accuracy.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Missing. Not applicable to this type of device and submission.

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

    • Missing. Not applicable to this type of device and submission.

    In summary, the provided 510(k) summary for the DIVER C.E. Catheter confirms that verification testing was conducted and met "established acceptance criteria," but it does not disclose the details of those criteria or the study methodology (sample sizes, ground truth, expert involvement, etc.) as these are not typically required for a 510(k) demonstrating substantial equivalence for a device of this nature.

The catheters are a rapid exchange design, with the guide wire lumen running from the distal tip to 22.7 cm proximally in the catheter body, where the exit port is located. The catheters are compatible with guide wires with a maximum diameter of 0.014".

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) summary for the DIVER™ C.E. Catheter, a medical device. It does not contain the detailed information typically found in a clinical study report or a validation study. As such, I cannot extract specific quantitative acceptance criteria or detailed study results that would allow me to fill in all the requested sections of your query.

    However, I can extract the information provided regarding the testing and equivalence.

    Here's what I can provide based on the given document:

    1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

    The document mentions "Comparison bench tests regarding performance characteristics were performed on the DIVER C.E. Catheter (with sideholes), DIVER C.E. Catheter (without sideholes), and the predicate devices to demonstrate equivalency."

    However, it does not explicitly state the acceptance criteria (e.g., specific thresholds for performance metrics) nor does it provide quantitative reported device performance values from these bench tests. It only states that the tests demonstrated equivalency.

    Acceptance Criteria (e.g., Specific thresholds for performance metrics)Reported Device Performance (e.g., Achieved values)
    Not specified in the document.Not specified in the document.

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

    • Sample size: Not specified. The document only mentions "Comparison bench tests" without detailing the number of catheters or test scenarios used.
    • Data provenance: Not specified. It's bench test data, so it's not patient-derived from a specific country, and it's not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective in this context.

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

    • Not applicable. The document describes bench testing for "performance characteristics" and "biocompatibility," not a clinical study involving human expert assessment of a test set to establish ground truth.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Not applicable. (See #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:

    • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document describes bench testing for device performance and biocompatibility for a catheter, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human readers.

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

    • Not applicable. This is a physical medical device (catheter), not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • For Biocompatibility: In vitro and/or in vivo tests were likely conducted according to ISO 10993 and FDA Memorandum #G95-1. The "ground truth" here would be established by the biological responses observed in these standardized tests (e.g., no cytotoxicity, no irritation).
    • For Performance Data: The "ground truth" would be the measured physical and mechanical properties of the catheters and their ability to perform their intended function (e.g., aspiration efficacy, catheter navigability, flow rates) in a controlled bench test environment. These would be compared against the predicate devices.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not a machine learning model that requires a training set.

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

    • Not applicable. (See #8)

    Summary of available information:

    The document concerns the regulatory submission for a physical medical device (catheter). The "study" referenced is a summary of bench testing to demonstrate performance characteristics and biocompatibility testing to show material safety. The purpose of these tests was to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not to establish specific performance against a defined numerical acceptance criterion in a clinical setting or to evaluate an AI algorithm. Therefore, many of the requested fields are not applicable or the information is simply not present in this regulatory summary.

    The AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014'' OTW PTA Balloon Catheter is intended to dilate stenoses in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal, and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae.

    Device Description

    The AMPHIRION DEEP catheter is a coaxial lumen device with a semi-compliant balloon. The lumen marked "WIRE" is the central lumen of the catheter, which terminates at the distal tip. This lumen is used to pass the catheter over a guidewire with a maximum outer diameter of 0.014 inch. The lumen marked "BALLOON" is the balloon inflation lumen, which is used to inflate and deflate the dilatation balloon. The catheter tapers beneath the balloon segment to achieve the lowest possible deflated profile. Two radiopaque marker bands are placed under the balloon segment of the catheter shaft to provide visual reference points for balloon positioning within the vessel. The distal catheter shaft is hydrophilic coated.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a Premarket Notification (510(k)) Summary for the AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA Balloon Catheter. This type of submission is for demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than proving novel effectiveness through clinical studies with acceptance criteria in the traditional sense.

    Therefore, many of the requested categories for acceptance criteria and study details are not applicable in this context. The "study" mentioned is primarily bench testing to support substantial equivalence for newly added balloon sizes, not a clinical trial evaluating diagnostic or treatment efficacy against specific performance metrics.

    Here's an analysis based on the provided text, addressing the applicable points and explaining why others are not relevant:


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA Balloon Catheter

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

    In the context of a 510(k) for a device like a PTA balloon catheter, "acceptance criteria" are not typically expressed as performance metrics like sensitivity/specificity for a diagnostic device or success rates for a novel therapeutic device against predefined thresholds. Instead, the acceptance criteria revolve around demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, meaning it has the same intended use, similar technological characteristics, and performs as safely and effectively.

    For this specific submission, the "performance" referenced primarily pertains to bench testing to support the substantial equivalence claim for the newly added balloon sizes. The document explicitly states: "Performance testing (bench) further supports a substantial equivalence claim. The collective evidence therefore provides assurance that the AMPHIRIONTM DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA Balloon Catheter meets the requirements that are considered acceptable for the intended use."

    The document does not provide specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., burst pressure tolerance, deflation time) or reported performance values from these bench tests. It simply states that the tests were performed and support the claim.

    Acceptance Criteria Category (Implied by 510(k))Reported Device Performance (Summary)
    Intended Use EquivalenceSame as predicate device (dilate stenoses in specified arteries and A-V fistulae).
    Technological Characteristics EquivalenceSimilar to predicate device (coaxial lumen, semi-compliant balloon, radiopaque markers, hydrophilic coating). Added balloon diameters (2.5mm, 3.0mm, 3.5mm, 4.0mm).
    Material EquivalenceSame as predicate device.
    Performance (Bench Testing)Bench testing supports substantial equivalence for added balloon sizes. No specific numerical metrics reported in this summary.
    Safety and EffectivenessDeemed safe and effective based on substantial equivalence claim and supporting bench data.

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

    The document refers to "Performance testing (bench)."

    • Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified. Bench tests often involve a certain number of units per size/configuration to ensure statistical validity, but the exact count is not disclosed in this summary.
    • Data Provenance: The tests are "bench" tests, meaning in-vitro laboratory testing, not human or animal studies. Therefore, concepts like country of origin for patient data are not applicable.

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

    Not applicable. For bench testing of a device like a balloon catheter, "ground truth" is typically defined by engineering specifications, material properties, and physical measurements, not by expert clinical consensus. The evaluation is against engineering standards and requirements, not expert interpretations of clinical data.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    Not applicable. As described above, the "test set" involves bench testing against engineering specifications, not clinical cases requiring expert 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

    Not applicable. This device is a medical instrument (PTA balloon catheter), not a diagnostic imaging system or an AI-powered tool. Therefore, MRMC studies involving human readers or AI assistance are entirely irrelevant.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an algorithm or AI device.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    For the bench testing, the "ground truth" would be the engineering specifications and validated testing methodologies against which the device's physical properties and performance characteristics (e.g., burst pressure, inflation/deflation times, guidewire compatibility, shaft flexibility) are measured. These are objective measurements compared to predefined limits and the predicate device's performance.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is a medical device, not an AI or machine learning model that requires a "training set."

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

    Not applicable. See point 8.

    The AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA Balloon Catheter is intended to dilate stenoses in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal, and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae.

    Device Description

    The AMPHIRION DEEP catheter has a semi-compliant inflatable balloon mounted at the distal tip. It has a coaxial lumen. The central lumen of the catheter, which terminates at the distal tip, is used to pass the catheter over a guidewire with a maximum outer diameter of 0.014 inch. The other lumen is the balloon inflation lumen, which is used to inflate and deflate the dilatation balloon with a mixture of contrast medium and saline solution. The catheter tapers beneath the balloon segment to achieve the lowest possible deflated profile. Radiopaque marker bands are placed under the balloon segment of the catheter shaft to provide visual reference points for balloon positioning within the vessel. The distal catheter shaft is hydrophilic coated (balloon included). The AMPHIRION DEEP catheter is available in different balloon sizes (balloon diameters of 1.5 and 2.0 mm and balloon lengths of 20, 40, 80 and 120 mm). Nominal balloon diameter and length are printed on the hub. The maximum recommended guidewire diameter is 0.014" and the usable catheter length is 120cm.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the AMPHIRION™ DEEP 0.014" OTW PTA BALLOON CATHETER, a medical device. This type of document is for a medical device that does not use AI/ML technology, and therefore, many of the requested categories are not applicable. The document describes the device, its intended use, and how its safety and effectiveness were demonstrated through in-vitro testing and comparison to predicate devices, rather than a study with acceptance criteria and device performance as typically understood for AI/ML devices.

    Here's an attempt to answer the questions based on the provided text, noting where information is not applicable or unavailable:


    1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    Since this is a physical medical device (a catheter) and not an AI/ML device, the "acceptance criteria" and "reported device performance" are based on a series of in-vitro physical tests designed to ensure the device meets engineering specifications and safety standards, rather than diagnostic accuracy metrics.

    Acceptance Criteria (Tests Performed)Reported Device Performance
    Balloon ComplianceDemonstrated, indicating balloon inflates as expected.
    Balloon Burst PressureDemonstrated, ensuring balloon can withstand pressure.
    Balloon FatigueDemonstrated, indicating durability under repeated use.
    Shaft Burst PressureDemonstrated, ensuring shaft integrity under pressure.
    Bond StrengthDemonstrated, ensuring structural integrity of components.
    Catheter DimensionsDemonstrated, meeting specified dimensions.
    Guidewire CompatibilityDemonstrated, compatible with 0.014-inch guidewires.
    Introducer CompatibilityDemonstrated, compatible with introducer sheaths.
    BiocompatibilityAll materials proved biocompatible based on test results.

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

    For physical medical devices, "test set" typically refers to the number of individual devices or components subjected to specific physical bench tests. The document does not specify the exact sample sizes (e.g., number of catheters tested for burst pressure), nor does it describe data provenance in terms of country of origin or retrospective/prospective, as these concepts are not applicable to the in-vitro mechanical and material tests described.

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

    Not applicable. Ground truth for physical device testing is established by engineering specifications, material standards, and validated testing methodologies, not by expert consensus on clinical data.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are used for clinical data interpretation or labeling decisions, typically involving multiple human readers to establish a consensus ground truth. This is not relevant for the in-vitro physical testing of a catheter.

    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 physical medical device, not an AI/ML diagnostic tool. Therefore, MRMC studies and the concept of human reader improvement with AI assistance are irrelevant.

    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

    For this device, the "ground truth" for demonstrating safety and effectiveness was based on:

    • Engineering Specifications: Performance metrics (e.g., burst pressure, dimensions) were compared against predefined engineering and design specifications.
    • Material Standards: Biocompatibility testing followed established material science standards.
    • Predicate Device Equivalence: Performance was deemed "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices through comparison of physical characteristics and mechanical testing data.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, and the concept of a "training set" is not relevant.

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

    Not applicable. As there is no training set, there is no ground truth establishment for it.


    Summary regarding AI/ML relevance:

    The provided document describes a traditional 510(k) submission for a physical medical device (PTA balloon catheter). It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through physical characteristics (design, materials, dimensions) and in-vitro performance testing (e.g., burst pressure, biocompatibility). None of the information suggests the involvement of AI/ML technology, hence many of the questions regarding AI/ML study design and performance metrics are not applicable.
