Coating – Lubricity and Durability | Coating must be lubricious with a specified average pull force. | Pass |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not specify the exact sample sizes used for each bench and laboratory test. It states that "Bench and laboratory (in-vitro) testing was completed" and references "simulated neurological model" and "simulated use testing," indicating an in-vitro experimental setting.
Data Provenance: The data is generated from in-vitro bench and laboratory testing conducted by the manufacturer, Imperative Care, Inc. The country of origin of this data is not explicitly stated, but it is implied to be internal testing. The data is retrospective in the sense that it evaluates the performance of the manufactured devices against pre-established specifications.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This type of information is not applicable to this 510(k) submission. "Ground truth" established by experts (e.g., radiologists) is typically relevant for studies validating diagnostic or AI-driven devices against clinical outcomes or expert interpretation, such as in an MRMC study. This submission focuses on the physical and mechanical performance of a medical device (catheter) through bench testing.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Since the evaluation is based on objective measurements and predefined specifications in bench testing (e.g., absence of kinking, passage through a simulated model), there is no adjudication method as typically understood in clinical or expert-reviewed studies. The "Pass/Fail" results are determined by whether the device meets the quantitative and qualitative requirements of the test specifications.
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. This submission is for a percutaneous catheter, not an AI-driven or diagnostic device that involves human reader interpretation. Consequently, there is no discussion of human reader improvement with or without AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done
No, a standalone algorithm performance study was not done. This device is a physical medical instrument (catheter), not a software algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
The "ground truth" in this context refers to the pre-established physical and mechanical performance specifications laid out in the test attributes and derived from standards like ISO 10555-1 and internal engineering requirements. It is a benchmark of expected functional performance, rather than a clinical or pathological diagnosis.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This question is not applicable as this is not a machine learning or AI-driven device. There is no concept of a "training set" for physical device performance testing.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
This question is not applicable as this is not a machine learning or AI-driven device.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not explicitly state the specific sample sizes (number of units tested) for each individual bench and laboratory test. It generally refers to "bench and laboratory (in-vitro) testing." The data provenance is in-vitro, conducted in a laboratory setting. There is no information regarding country of origin of the data or if it was retrospective or prospective, as these terms typically apply to clinical studies with human participants.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This information is not provided. For performance testing of a medical device like a catheter, "ground truth" is typically established by physical measurements, engineering specifications, and adherence to recognized standards (like ISO 10555-1), rather than expert consensus on interpretive data.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable and not provided. Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) are typically used in clinical studies involving interpretation of data (e.g., imaging) by multiple readers to resolve discrepancies. The performance tests described here are objective, pass/fail engineering tests.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The submission is for a medical device (catheter) and relies on bench and laboratory testing for substantial equivalence, not comparative clinical effectiveness with human readers.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done
This question is not applicable to the device described. The TracStar LDP Large Distal Platform and Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform are physical guide catheters, not algorithms or AI software. Therefore, there is no "algorithm only" or "human-in-the-loop" performance to report.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
For the bench and laboratory tests, the "ground truth" is based on pre-defined engineering specifications and performance standards, particularly ISO 10555-1 for catheters. The results are objective measurements against these established criteria, leading to a "Pass" or "Fail" outcome.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This information is not applicable. The device is a physical catheter, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set. The substantial equivalence pathway relies on demonstrating that the new device performs similarly to a predicate device through bench testing, not on learning from a dataset.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
This information is not applicable, as there is no training set for a physical medical device.
