Recommended for introduction of balloons, catheters and other diagnostic and interventional devices into veins and/or arteries while maintaining hemostasis for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

The NuMED D'VILL Introducer is recommended for introduction of balloons, catheters and other diagnostic and interventional devices into veins and/or arteries while maintaining hemostasis for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The introducer consists of a dilator and sheath with hemostasis valve and side port on the proximal end of the sheath assembly. There is a single image band embedded in the distal end of the sheath tubing for imaging purposes. The sheath is Pebax braided with stainless steel and a PTFE liner and will accommodate a 0.035" guidewire. The dilator is LDPE. The D'VILL is available in 10, 12 and 14F sizes in both 30 and 85cm lengths, as well as, 12 and 14F in a 65 cm length.

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the "D'Vill Introducer." This submission is a "Special 510(k)" to obtain marketing clearance for an additional size (65cm length) of an already cleared device, the D'VILL Introducer – K171206.

The crucial information to understand here is that a Special 510(k) is typically used for modifications to a manufacturer's own legally marketed device where the modification does not alter the fundamental scientific technology of the device and does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. This often means that the performance testing is focused on demonstrating that the new modification performs equivalently to the existing device within the established parameters, rather than proving the overall safety and effectiveness of a completely new device from scratch.

Therefore, the "acceptance criteria" and "study" described in this document are not a clinical study with human patients, but rather bench testing to demonstrate that the new size performs similarly to the predicate device.

Here's the breakdown based on the provided document:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for the D'Vill Introducer (New 65cm Length)

The device in question is an additional size (65cm length) of an already cleared product. The performance testing focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate device rather than establishing entirely new safety and effectiveness.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

• Sample Size for Test Set: The document does not specify the precise number of units tested for each performance test. It only states, "A complete list of tests performed are provided below. All tests met their acceptance criteria and specifications."
• Data Provenance: This is bench testing of a medical device, not a human study. The data is prospective, generated from testing newly manufactured devices. The country of origin for the testing is not explicitly stated, but given the FDA submission, it would typically be conducted in a controlled environment, often by the manufacturer or a contracted lab.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

• This information is not applicable as the ground truth for this type of device modification (addition of a new size) is established through engineering and materials testing standards, not clinical expert consensus. The "ground truth" is adherence to established physical and mechanical performance specifications.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

• Not applicable. Bench testing results are typically measured against predetermined specifications, not adjudicated by experts in the context of diagnostic interpretation.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

• No. An MRMC study is relevant for diagnostic devices that involve human interpretation of images or other data. This device is a catheter introducer, a physical medical device, and its performance is evaluated through engineering and materials testing, not diagnostic accuracy by human readers.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

• Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI algorithm.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

• The ground truth used for this type of device is based on engineering specifications, material properties, and established industry standards for the performance of introducer catheters. This includes measurements of physical dimensions, force tolerance, leak resistance, and biocompatibility (by equivalence to predicate materials).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

• Not applicable. This device is not an AI algorithm or a diagnostic tool that requires a "training set" in the machine learning sense. The "training" for the device's development involves engineering design, material selection, and manufacturing processes honed over time, implicitly incorporating knowledge from previous designs and testing.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

• Not applicable. See point 8. The "ground truth" (or design principles) for manufacturing such a device is established through biomedical engineering principles, regulatory standards (like ISO standards for medical devices), and a history of manufacturing similar devices.

Summary of the Study:

The "study" was a series of in-vitro (bench) performance tests designed to demonstrate that the new 65cm length of the D'Vill Introducer performs equivalently to the existing, predicate D'Vill Introducer (K171206). The tests covered physical dimensions, mechanical strength, and functional integrity (e.g., leakage, kink resistance). All tested parameters met the prespecified acceptance criteria, leading to the conclusion of substantial equivalence for the new size. Biocompatibility was addressed by stating that the materials and manufacturing processes are identical to the predicate device.

Indicated for CP Stent / Covered CP Stent placement in vessels over 8mm in diameter.

The NuMED BIB® Stent Placement Catheter Model 420 is indicated for CP Stent / Covered CP Stent placement in vessels over 8mm in diameter. The catheter is triaxial in construction with two lumens being used to inflate the balloons while one lumen is being used for tracking over a guidewire. The purpose of the double balloon catheter is to apply an incremental inflation for the purpose of dilating a stent. The inner balloon provides initial expansion of the stent and also acts as a tool to hold the stent on the catheter prior to the outer balloon being inflated. The outer balloon is then inflated providing the remainder of the expansion. There are radiopaque platinum marker bands under the balloon shoulders for placement using fluoroscopy. The balloon material is clear. The catheter balloon diameters are stamped onto the inflation extensions and are labeled with balloon diameter x balloon length and the catheter lot number.

The provided text describes a medical device, the NuMED BIB® Stent Placement Catheter, and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It includes performance data from in vitro testing and a clinical trial. However, the document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria in a quantitative format, nor does it present the study results specifically framed as meeting such criteria. Instead, it leverages prior testing and a clinical trial to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

Based on the provided text, here's an attempt to extract and infer the requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

As explicit acceptance criteria with numerical targets are not stated, this table will present the key performance indicators from the leveraged studies, which implicitly served as the basis for performance evaluation for substantial equivalence.

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

• Test Set Description: The clinical study is referred to as the COAST trial.
• Sample Size: 112 patients were enrolled.
• Data Provenance: The COAST trial was a "prospective, multi-center, single arm study." While the specific country of origin is not explicitly stated, "multi-center" implies data from several locations, typically within a regulatory region (e.g., USA for FDA approval).

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

The provided text only refers to clinical trial data (COAST study) for safety and effectiveness. It does not mention the use of experts to establish a "ground truth" for the test set in the context of diagnostic performance or image interpretation often associated with AI/ML devices. Therefore, this question is not applicable to the submitted document. The clinical outcomes served as the definitive measure of device performance.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

The document does not describe an adjudication method for the test set, as no "ground truth" establishment by multiple experts is discussed for diagnostic purposes. Clinical trial outcomes are typically assessed by study investigators and monitored, but not through an adjudication process in the sense of resolving discrepancies between expert opinions on a data point.

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 such MRMC comparative effectiveness study is mentioned. The device is a physical medical device (stent placement 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

This question is not applicable. The device is a physical medical device; it does not have a standalone algorithm or AI component.

7. The type of ground truth used

For the clinical study (COAST trial), the "ground truth" for evaluating the device's performance was:

• Clinical Outcomes/Events:
  • Rates of serious adverse events within 30 days.
  • Rates of post-procedure paradoxical hypertension.
  • Reduction in arm-leg systolic blood pressure gradient from baseline to 12 months.
  • Length of hospital stay.
• Successful implantation: The text states, "The results demonstrated that the CP Stent could be successfully mounted and implanted using the BiB Stent Placement Catheter..."

For the bench and biocompatibility testing, the "ground truth" was established based on pre-defined engineering specifications, material standards, and biological safety guidelines, which the device components were expected to meet.

8. The sample size for the training set

The document does not describe a "training set" in the context of AI/ML. The device is a physical medical device. The "leveraged" data from K050857 and P150028 could be considered as prior performance data used for development and comparison, but not a "training set" in the AI sense.

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

As there is no "training set" for an AI/ML algorithm described, this question is not applicable. The prior performance data from K050857 and P150028 were established through engineering tests, biocompatibility assessments, and clinical evaluation as per regulatory requirements for medical devices.

Here's a summary of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study

The K122012 submission for the Z-MED and Z-MED II Catheters primarily relies on in-vitro (bench) testing and a review of existing clinical data for safety and effectiveness. No specific algorithms or human-in-the-loop performance studies are described as this is a medical device (catheter), not an AI/software device.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided text details in-vitro test results for the Z-MED and Z-MED II catheters, as well as two predicate devices (NuCLEUS-X and NuCLEUS). The table below focuses on the Z-MED and Z-MED II results as the subject devices.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

• Sample Size for In-Vitro Testing: The document does not explicitly state the numerical sample size for each in-vitro test (e.g., how many catheters were visually inspected or burst tested). It refers to "All catheters" or "All samples" meeting criteria, indicating that a sufficient number were tested.
• Data Provenance (Clinical):
  • Country of Origin: The clinical evaluation report was prepared to meet the requirements of the Medical Device Directive MOD 93/42/EEC (European Union standard). The clinical use of the Z-MED and Z-MED II catheters for BAV and BMV is mentioned in "those countries where they are used," and for BPV in "the United States."
  • Retrospective/Prospective: The clinical information gathered appears to be a retrospective review of existing clinical literature, device history, previous sales, and reported complaints. It references "Numerous clinical studies reported in literature" and "200 patients" without incidents from BAV prior to TAVI.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

This information is not applicable and not provided in the context of this submission. The tests described are in-vitro bench tests for a physical medical device (catheter), which do not typically involve experts establishing ground truth in the way it's done for diagnostic AI/software. The ground truth for in-vitro tests is based on objective physical measurements and engineering specifications.

For the clinical context, the "ground truth" refers to observations from actual patient use, as reported in clinical literature and through device monitoring. No specific number or qualification of experts reviewing patient outcomes is provided beyond the implicit understanding that medical professionals conducted the procedures and reported outcomes.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This is not applicable for the in-vitro bench testing described. Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are typically used in clinical studies or for establishing ground truth in cases where there's variability in interpretation (e.g., image analysis by multiple radiologists). The in-vitro tests are objective physical measurements.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

An MRMC study is not applicable and not mentioned. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic devices, especially those involving human interpretation of data, often comparing human performance with and without AI assistance. The Z-MED and Z-MED II are interventional catheters, not diagnostic devices or AI software. There's no AI component mentioned to compare human readers with or without.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

This is not applicable and not mentioned. The devices are physical catheters, not algorithms or software. Therefore, there is no standalone (algorithm only) performance to evaluate.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

• In-Vitro Testing: The ground truth for the in-vitro tests is established by the predefined engineering specifications and acceptance criteria outlined in the table (e.g., balloon diameter within +/- 10% of labeled, no breaks, inflation/deflation times). These are objective, measurable physical parameters.
• Clinical Evaluation: The "ground truth" for clinical safety and performance is based on real-world patient outcomes and reported incidents/adverse events from existing clinical use and literature reviews.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

This is not applicable. The Z-MED and Z-MED II are physical medical devices undergoing traditional bench testing and clinical review, not AI models that require training sets.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This is not applicable, as there is no training set for a physical medical device.
