This is a 510(k) clearance letter for a medical device (nasal cannula), not an AI/ML-driven device. Therefore, the information typically requested for AI/ML device validation (such as expert consensus, MRMC studies, or training/test set details) is not applicable.
The document describes the device, its intended use, and a summary of non-clinical testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices. It clearly states that no clinical testing was performed.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided document, highlighting why many points are not applicable for this type of device clearance:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- The document lists various non-clinical performance tests but does not provide a table of specific acceptance criteria with corresponding reported device performance values. Instead, it generally states that testing was conducted "to demonstrate substantial equivalence." For example, it lists "Relevant Humidity Output testing" but doesn't state the specific humidity output range considered acceptable or the measured output. This is typical for a 510(k) submission where broad equivalence is the goal rather than meeting precise performance thresholds for novel functionality.
-
Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Not applicable. This is a physical medical device. Testing involved bench tests on manufactured units, not data sets in the AI/ML sense. Data provenance, retrospective/prospective, and sample sizes for test sets (in the context of patient data) are not relevant as no human or clinical data was used for validation.
-
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. No "ground truth" was established by experts in the context of diagnostic performance, image interpretation, or similar AI/ML applications, as this is a physical medical device.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable. There was no test set requiring expert adjudication for performance evaluation.
-
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 not an AI-assisted device, and no MRMC study was conducted. The document explicitly states "No clinical testing was performed."
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This is not an algorithm-based device.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Not applicable. The concept of "ground truth" as it applies to AI/ML model validation is not relevant here. The device's performance was evaluated against engineering specifications and industry standards for physical device functionality (e.g., flow rates, material compatibility, strength).
-
The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. There is no AI/ML model, and thus no training set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. There is no AI/ML model, and thus no training set or ground truth establishment for it.
In summary, the provided document is a 510(k) clearance for a physical medical device, not an AI/ML-driven product. Therefore, most of the requested information related to AI/ML validation (ground truth, expert studies, training/test sets) is irrelevant to this submission.
The acceptance criteria for this device focus on:
- Biocompatibility: Meeting ISO standards (e.g., ISO 10993 series, ISO 18562 series) to ensure the materials are safe for patient contact and breathing gas pathways. The document lists the specific ISO standards used.
- Performance Bench Testing: Covering aspects like visual inspection, humidity output, thermal overshoot, connection strength, leak testing, headgear testing, shelf life, and useful life. While the specific numerical acceptance criteria for each test (e.g., "humidity output must be within X amount") are not explicitly listed in this summary, the document indicates these tests were performed and implicitly met the company's internal acceptance criteria for demonstrating substantial equivalence.
- Substantial Equivalence: The overarching acceptance criterion for a 510(k) is demonstrating that the device is "as safe and as effective" as a legally marketed predicate device, based on the non-clinical testing performed.
The "Study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" for this product consists of the various Non-Clinical Testing described on pages 16-17, primarily Biocompatibility Testing and Performance Testing (Bench), which were conducted to support the claim of substantial equivalence to the predicate devices.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
The document describes non-clinical tests conducted to verify design specifications. For each test listed in the table, the "Results" column indicates a "Pass," meaning the acceptance criteria were met.
- Sample Size: The specific sample sizes for each non-clinical test (e.g., number of fabric specimens tested for ASTM F1671) are not detailed in this summary. The 510(k) summary typically provides a high-level overview, and the detailed test reports (which FDA reviews) would contain this information.
- Data Provenance: The tests are generally performed by accredited testing laboratories or the manufacturer's own qualified labs. The document does not specify the country of origin of the data. Given it's an FDA submission, the tests would typically adhere to recognized international standards like ISO and ASTM. These are prospective tests performed specifically to support the regulatory submission of this new device.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications:
- Not Applicable. For this type of medical device (surgical gowns), "ground truth" is established through adherence to standardized, objective performance tests (e.g., measuring water resistance, breaking strength, biocompatibility). These are not studies that rely on expert interpretation of images or clinical outcomes to establish ground truth in the way an AI diagnostic device would.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
- None. Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are relevant for studies involving human interpretation or clinical endpoints, often in the context of diagnostic accuracy or clinical trials. As this is a non-clinical performance evaluation against objective standards, no adjudication method is used. The results are quantitative measurements interpreted against pre-defined thresholds.
5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:
- No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is typically performed for diagnostic devices (especially those involving image interpretation by human readers) to assess how an AI algorithm impacts reader performance. The Medline Level 4 Surgical Gown is a protective apparel, not a diagnostic device, and its performance is evaluated through physical and material property tests, not human reader studies.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Not Applicable. This question typically pertains to AI/ML software as a medical device (SaMD). The Medline Level 4 Surgical Gown is a physical medical device. Its performance is inherent in its material properties and manufacturing, not an algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by objective, quantitative measurements against published national and international standards. This includes:
- Biocompatibility Standards: ISO 10993 series (Cytotoxicity, Irritation, Sensitization).
- Barrier Performance Standards: ASTM F1671 (blood-borne pathogens), AATCC 42 (impact penetration), AATCC 127 (hydrostatic pressure), and ANSI/AAMI PB70:2022 (overall liquid barrier performance classification).
- Material Strength Standards: ASTM D5034 (breaking strength), ASTM D5587 (tearing strength), ASTM D1683 (sewn seam failure).
- Other Performance Standards: 16 CFR 1610 (flammability), ASTM E96 (water vapor transmission/breathability).
The "ground truth" is therefore the measured physical and chemical properties of the gown, compared against the predefined acceptance criteria of these standard test methods.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
- Not Applicable. The concept of a "training set" is relevant for machine learning algorithms. This device is a manufactured product, not an AI algorithm. Its design and manufacturing process would involve material selection and engineering, not machine learning training.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
- Not Applicable. As there is no training set for an AI algorithm, this question is not relevant.

Based on the provided text, the device in question is the Hudson RCI Comfort Flo® CubCannula™, a nasal cannula. The document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification, which demonstrates substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving a device meets specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study as might be done for a novel device or pre-market approval (PMA) pathway.
Therefore, the information regarding "acceptance criteria" and a "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the traditional sense of a clinical trial with pre-defined primary and secondary endpoints is not explicitly present for this 510(k) submission. Instead, the focus is on demonstrating equivalence through non-clinical testing (biocompatibility and bench testing).
Here's an analysis of the provided information relative to your questions, with specific callouts where information is not available due to the nature of a 510(k) substantial equivalence submission:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not present a formal table of acceptance criteria with corresponding performance results in the way a clinical study report would. Instead, it lists the non-clinical tests performed and states that they revealed "passing results" or that "emissions are well below the health-based thresholds." The "acceptance criteria" are implied by the standards cited and the statement of compliance.
Implied Acceptance (Compliance) and Reported Performance (Statement of Passing):
Test Category | Implied Acceptance (Standard/Requirement) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Biocompatibility | ISO 10993-1:2018 (General Evaluation), ISO 10993-5: 2009 (Cytotoxicity), ISO 10993:10: 2010 (Irritation & Sensitization), ISO 10993-11:2017 (Systemic Toxicity), ISO 10993-6:2016 (Local Effects after Implantation), ISO 10993-3:2014 (Genotoxicity, Carcinogenicity, Reproductive Toxicity), ISO 10993-12:2012 (Sample Prep), ISO 10993-17:2002 (Allowable Limits for Leachables), ISO 10993-18:2005 (Chemical Char.); ISO 18562-1:2017 (Breathing Gas), ISO 18562-2:2017 (Particulate Matter), ISO 18562-3:2017 (VOCs). | "All biological endpoint testing including cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, acute systemic toxicity, and genotoxicity revealed passing results." |
"The extractables/leachables testing on the humidified gas pathway components revealed MOS values greater than 1.0 after clinically relevant considerations and condensate attenuation." | ||
"VOC and Particulates that the CubCannula emissions are well below the health-based thresholds for both volatile organic compounds and particulates." | ||
"the CubCannula referenced in this document is biocompatible and does not present a foreseen biological and/or toxicological risk." | ||
Performance (Bench) | ISO 5356-1:2015 (Conical connectors), ISO 80601-2-74:2017 (Respiratory devices), ASTM F1980-21 (Accelerated Aging), ASTM D4169-22 (Shipping Containers). | Performed tests include: Post aging Visual Inspection, Relevant Humidity Output testing, Thermal Overshoot testing, Connection strength testing, Flow Leak Test/Gas path leak testing, Shelf Life Testing, Useful Life Testing, Peel Testing, Transportation simulation, ISO gauging. All are implicitly stated as having demonstrated substantial equivalence. Specific quantitative results are not provided in this summary. For "Useful Life," it states: "Testing has been performed to validate the 10-day useful life (safety factor included)." |
Product Characteristics | Maintain functional equivalence (e.g., flow rates, patient population, counter-indications) to predicate device. | Flow rates (1-25 LPM) are similar to the predicate (0.5-25 LPM, max 36LPM for XXL size not included). Useful life (10 days) has been validated vs predicate (7 days). Shelf life (2 years) vs predicate (3 years). These differences were assessed not to raise new safety/effectiveness concerns. |
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
This information is not provided in the document as it pertains to a 510(k) submission based on non-clinical (bench) testing, not a clinical study. The "test set" would refer to the physical units of the device tested in the lab, but the number of units is not specified. There is no patient data or country of origin for the data as no clinical testing was performed ("No clinical testing was performed").
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)
This is not applicable as there was no clinical study, no patient data, and therefore no "ground truth" established by experts in the context of clinical interpretation or outcomes. The ground truth for the non-clinical tests would be the established performance standards set by the cited ISO and ASTM documents.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This is not applicable as there was no clinical study or expert review for 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
This is not applicable. The device is a physical medical device (nasal cannula), not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This is not applicable, as it is not an algorithm-based device.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
Since no clinical study comparing the new device's performance against a "ground truth" in patients was conducted per the document ("No clinical testing was performed"), the concept of "ground truth" in a clinical sense is not applicable. For the non-clinical testing, the "ground truth" is adherence to the specified performance characteristics and safety profiles as measured against the requirements of the cited ISO and ASTM standards. These standards define the acceptable range for each test parameter (e.g., cytotoxicity, leachable substances thresholds, connection strength, leak rates).
8. The sample size for the training set
This is not applicable. This is a physical device, not an AI/machine learning model that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This is not applicable for the reasons stated in point 8.
