The Medisystems Hemodialysis Fistula Needle Securement Device, SiteGuard, is intended for use to secure the fistula needle to the patient's skin.
The SiteGuard needle securement device has the following features:
a. It allows the needle to be held at a consistent angle during treatment;
b. It secures wing/hub to the patient's skin and helps prevent movement and/or dislodgement of the needle during use; and,
c. It helps to immobilize the patient's vein or access during cannulation so that it is not necessary for caregivers to hold the vein or access with their fingers.
The subject of this 510(k) is a removable, rigid plastic securement device that is attached to the AVF needle set by the care giver. The SiteGuard securement device will be included in the unit packaging pouch with the Medisystems AVF needle set and also will be available for purchase as an individually packaged accessory.
Because the tape, the AVF wing, and the patient's skin are flexible, the needle may dislodge or move within the patient's access during treatment due to this inherent flexibility. The securement device adds a rigid structure to increase the ability of the tape to prevent the needle from accidentally dislodging or moving within the patient's vascular access.
This accessory also will immobilize the patient's vein during insertion of the cannula so that it is not necessary for caregivers to hold the vein or access with their fingers. The channel along the bottom of the securement device is designed to immobilize the patient's vein during insertion. This feature is especially helpful for patients who have newly created fistulas or implanted grafts because new accesses tend to move during cannulation.
This 510(k) summary does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance against those criteria.
Instead, this document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices rather than demonstrating performance against specific acceptance criteria through a comparative study.
Here's a breakdown of why the requested information is absent and what the document does provide:
-
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: These are not mentioned. The document states that "all finished products are tested and must meet all required release specifications before distribution" and that "The required testing is defined by written and approved procedures that conform to the product design specifications." However, what these specifications or acceptance criteria are, or the quantitative results of such testing, are not provided in this 510(k) summary.
-
Study That Proves the Device Meets Acceptance Criteria: No such specific study is described. The document refers to "risk analysis, test and design considerations, and verification and validation testing processes" as part of product development, but it doesn't detail a study designed to demonstrate performance against acceptance criteria.
Let's address the specific points you asked for, indicating where the information is not present in this document:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- Not present. The document mentions "required release specifications" and "product design specifications" but does not enumerate them or report specific performance metrics against them.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- Not present. No specific test set or data from a performance study is described.
-
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 present. There is no mention of ground truth establishment or experts for a test set.
-
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not present. No test set or adjudication method is described.
-

- Not present. As this is a physical device, this concept does not apply.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- Not present. No ground truth type is mentioned as no performance study is detailed.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not present. There is no mention of a training set, as this is not an AI/machine learning device.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not present. Not applicable, as there's no training set mentioned.
Summary of what the document does convey regarding "Safety and effectiveness":
The document states:
- "To assure that the devices are safe and effective, all finished products are tested and must meet all required release specifications before distribution."
- "The required testing is defined by written and approved procedures that conform to the product design specifications."
- "The potential hazards have been studied and controlled as part of the product development process, including risk analysis, test and design considerations, and verification and validation testing processes."
- The primary justification for safety and effectiveness is "substantial equivalence" to legally marketed predicate devices (TNT Moborg Intl., LTD, Immobile Non-sterile and Immobile A/C t non-sterile (K941850); and, TNT Immobile sterile and Immobile A/C sterile (K941940)). The document explicitly states, "There are no new issues of safety or effectiveness resulting from the inclusion of this accessory in the legally marketed needle set."
In essence, this 510(k) relies on the argument that the SiteGuard device is similar enough to already approved devices that it shares their established safety and effectiveness profile, without needing to conduct new, explicit performance studies detailed in this summary.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The provided document does not specify the exact sample size used for the test set of the Medisystems Buttonhole Needle Sets. It mentions that "all finished products are tested," implying a 100% inspection for release testing, but does not detail the size of any specific sample for formal effectiveness or safety studies.
The data provenance is from Medisystems Corporation, with the testing described as part of their Device Master Records which define "required testing." This suggests that the testing was conducted internally by the manufacturer. The document does not specify the country of origin of the data, but the submitter is based in Washington, DC, USA. The nature of the testing (manufacturing release testing) indicates it is prospective for each batch produced.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Experts
The document does not describe the use of external experts or the establishment of a "ground truth" in the context of clinical or performance evaluation for the test set. The acceptance criteria are related to manufacturing release specifications (sterility, pyrogenicity, physical testing, visual examination) rather than clinical efficacy or diagnostic accuracy. Therefore, this section is not applicable based on the provided information.

- Comparison of Intended Use: Demonstrated identical intended use to predicate devices.
- Comparison of Technological Characteristics: Demonstrated identical technological characteristics (spike connector, tubing, drip chamber, adjustable clamp, connection means) to predicate devices.
- Verification and Validation Testing (Manufacturing & Materials):
- Biocompatibility Testing: Conducted where materials differed from the predicate, showing no effect on safety and effectiveness.
- Performance Testing: Implied comprehensive "physical testing" as part of the release specifications, ensuring the device functions as designed.
- Sterility Testing: Performed on all finished products as a release specification.
- Pyrogenicity Testing: Performed on all finished products as a release specification.
- Visual Examination: Conducted on in-process and finished products.
- Adherence to "Device Master Records": Indicating that all required testing and specifications are documented and followed according to established procedures.
The ultimate "proof" of meeting acceptance criteria for this type of submission is the FDA's determination of substantial equivalence, which was granted for K971860 on August 8, 1997. This clearance is based on the submission demonstrating that the device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate device.

Medisystems Transducer Protectors are single use, disposable prescription devices intended for use as protective devices for pressure monitors and to help protect the sterility of the fluid pathway.
Medisystems Transducer Protectors are designed to be used as protective devices for pressure monitors as well as to help maintain the sterility of the blood tubing fluid pathway. The 0.2 µm hydrophobic filter helps prevent cross-contamination by bacteria and particulate matter while preventing the flow of fluids to the machine pressure monitor at pressures less than 600 mmHg.
The provided 510(k) summary describes a medical device, the Medisystems Transducer Protectors, and its asserted equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not include the kind of detailed study information (acceptance criteria, performance metrics, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert involvement, or comparative effectiveness studies) that would typically be found in a submission for a device involving AI or complex performance claims. This summary is for a relatively simple disposable component, and thus the "study" described is primarily quality control and manufacturing process validation rather than a clinical performance study.

- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated. The submission refers to "all finished products" being tested as part of the release specifications. This implies a manufacturing quality control process rather than a discrete clinical/performance study with a defined sample size for a test set.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical or AI-related data. The testing described is part of the manufacturing and quality assurance process.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- Not applicable. The "ground truth" for this device's performance comes from its physical properties (0.2 µm filter, hydrophobic nature) and manufacturing quality control tests (sterility, pyrogenicity, physical testing, visual examination) against defined specifications, not from expert interpretation of complex data.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
- Not applicable. There is no expert adjudication process described. The acceptance criteria are objective tests against 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. This device is a passive mechanical filter. It does not involve AI or human readers, so an MRMC study is not relevant or described.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This device is a passive mechanical filter. There is no algorithm or AI component mentioned.
7. The type of ground truth used
- Objective physical and chemical properties, combined with manufacturing process control specifications. The device's function relies on its 0.2 µm pore size and hydrophobic material. "Ground truth" for its performance is established by demonstrating these properties and verifying manufacturing quality (sterility, pyrogenicity, physical integrity) according to internal procedures and specifications.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. There is no training set mentioned, as this device does not involve machine learning or AI.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. There is no training set mentioned.

MEDISYSTEMS CORP.
The blood tubing sets are intended for use with a blood access device and a medically approved flowthrough treatment device.
Medisystems blood tubing sets are used during extracorporeal procedures by providing a means to connect blood access devices to flow-through treatment device(s) (e.g. a hemodialyzer).
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called "Arterial - Venous Blood Tubing Set." This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device and details proposed labeling changes, rather than presenting a study with acceptance criteria and device performance metrics.
Therefore, the document does not contain the information required to answer your request. It does not describe:
- Acceptance criteria for device performance.
- A study proving the device meets acceptance criteria.
- Sample sizes for test or training sets.
- Data provenance.
- Number or qualifications of experts.
- Adjudication methods.
- MRMC comparative effectiveness studies.
- Standalone algorithm performance.
- Types of ground truth.
- Methods for establishing ground truth.
The document explicitly states: "Because the intent of this 510(k) is to seek FDA acknowledgment for a change in the labeling of currently marketed devices, the technological characteristics of the device are unchanged." and "The proposed labeling changes do not affect the product's design, composition, manufacturing, or performance characteristics." This indicates that no new performance studies were conducted or are being reported in this submission.
