    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the PALMTop PTV Models 8/10 ventilator, formatted to answer your questions:

    Acceptance Criteria and Study Analysis for PALMTop PTV Models 8/10

    The provided 510(k) summary for the PALMTop PTV Models 8/10 describes the device and its intended use, and states that performance testing (Bench testing) was conducted to verify that the device meets specified performance requirements and is substantially equivalent to predicate devices.

    However, the document does not explicitly provide a table of acceptance criteria with numerical thresholds, nor does it detail a specific clinical study with human subjects, ground truth establishment, or expert adjudication that would typically be associated with AI/ML-driven medical devices. The testing described appears to be traditional engineering performance verification against specifications, rather than a statistical study comparing device output to expert-established ground truth in a diagnostic or predictive context.

    Based on the provided information, I can fill in what is available and clarify what is not.


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not provide a table with specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., accuracy > X%, sensitivity > Y%, etc.) or corresponding reported device performance metrics in a quantitative manner. Instead, it broadly states that "Performance testing (Bench testing) verified that the Palmtop Models PTV 8/10 meet specified performance requirements and that the devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices listed below."

    Therefore, no direct table can be generated from the given text.


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

    The document describes "Performance testing (Bench testing)", which implies laboratory or engineering testing of the device's functionality rather than a test set of patient data. As such:

    • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable or not specified in terms of patient data. The testing involved the device in a benchtop environment.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable, as there is no patient data described as part of the performance verification.

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

    This information is not provided. Given that the testing involved "Bench testing," it's likely that ground truth was established by engineering specifications, calibration standards, and established medical device performance parameters, rather than expert interpretation of patient data.


    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. Since there's no mention of a test set involving human data or interpretations, an adjudication method like 2+1 or 3+1 would not be relevant.


    5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

    No, there is no indication that an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The device is a ventilator, a life-support system, and the "Bench testing" described focuses on its mechanical and functional performance, not on interpretation of medical images or signals by human readers assisted by AI.


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

    The device, a ventilator, is a therapeutic and monitoring device, not an AI algorithm. Its performance is inherent in its operation (e.g., delivering specified pressures or volumes). The "Bench testing" would assess this standalone functional performance. However, there's no "algorithm only" performance reported in the context of diagnostic AI.


    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The ground truth for the "Bench testing" would have been based on:

    • Engineering Specifications: The pre-defined parameters and operational ranges the ventilator is designed to achieve.
    • Calibration Standards: Reference measurements to ensure the device's sensors and outputs (e.g., pressure, flow, volume) are accurate.
    • Predicate Device Performance: Comparison to the established performance of the legally marketed predicate devices to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. The PALMTop PTV Models 8/10 is a traditional medical device (a ventilator), not a machine learning or AI-driven system that would require a "training set" of data in the common sense of AI development.


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

    Not applicable, as there is no "training set" in the context of an AI/ML device described for this product.


    In summary: The provided document describes the regulatory submission for a ventilator, a traditional medical device. The "performance testing" mentioned refers to engineering validation and verification (bench testing) against predefined device specifications and predicate device performance, not a clinical study involving human data, expert adjudication, or AI algorithm training/testing. Therefore, many of the questions related to AI/ML device evaluation criteria are not applicable to this submission.

    AI/ML Overview

    This 510(k) premarket notification (K060647) is for the Pulmonetic Systems, Inc. LTV 1200 Ventilator. The submission describes modifications to the previously cleared LTV 1000 Ventilator. However, the document does not contain information regarding specific acceptance criteria for performance metrics or a detailed study proving the device meets those criteria, as one would typically find for AI/ML-based medical devices.

    Instead, this submission is a typical medical device 510(k) for a hardware device with software components, focusing on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices and adherence to general controls and good manufacturing practices. The "acceptance criteria" discussed are implicitly related to the device functioning as intended for ventilation, meeting safety standards, and performing comparably to the predicate LTV 1000 and other listed ventilators (iVent 201 Portable Ventilator, AVEA Ventilator).

    Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided document, with notes on what is not applicable or not present in a traditional hardware device submission like this:


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance (Implied from Modifications and Equivalence)
    Functional Equivalence to Predicate Devices: Device performs its intended ventilatory support functions comparably to the LTV 1000, iVent 201, and AVEA Ventilators.The LTV 1200 Ventilator is stated to be "substantially equivalent" to predicate devices, including the LTV 1000, iVent 201, and AVEA Ventilators. This implies that its overall performance in delivering ventilatory support (e.g., breath types, modes, pressure/volume delivery) meets similar standards. Specific performance metrics are not quantitative stated in this summary.
    Proper function of new features/modifications:
    • Optional internal PEEP control
    • Low PEEP alarm
    • Optional Patient Setting Control Presets
    • NPPV mode setting enhancements
    • Externally accessibility to the device internal battery | The modifications are listed, and the 510(k) clearance implies that the FDA found these modifications do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness and function as intended. However, specific quantitative performance data for these new features (e.g., alarm accuracy, preset efficacy) is not provided in this summary. |
      | Safety and Effectiveness: Device meets general safety and effectiveness requirements for ventilators for adult and pediatric patients (>5 kg) in institutional, home, and transport settings. | The FDA's clearance (K060647) indicates that after review, the device is deemed substantially equivalent, which includes an implicit determination of sufficient safety and effectiveness for its stated indications for use. Compliance with general controls and GMP is also required. |

    Note: For a hardware device like a ventilator, acceptance criteria typically involve detailed engineering specifications, performance against recognized standards (e.g., ISO 80601-2-12 for critical care ventilators), and verification/validation testing covering aspects like:

    • Pressure/volume/flow accuracy and stability
    • Alarm performance (accuracy, response time)
    • Battery life and management
    • Durability and environmental testing
    • Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
    • Biocompatibility (if applicable to patient contact parts)
    • Software validation (for embedded software)

    This 510(k) summary does not include such detailed technical specifications or test results. It focuses on the regulatory aspect of demonstrating substantial equivalence.


    The following information is not present in the provided 510(k) summary, as it is typically relevant for AI/ML-based medical devices or more specific clinical trials, which are not the focus of this hardware device submission.

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

    • Not Applicable/Not Provided: This type of information is generally for studies involving data analysis, particularly for AI/ML models. For a ventilator, testing involves engineering verification and validation testing, not typically a "test set" in the context of data-driven models.

    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/Not Provided: This is specific to establishing ground truth for diagnostic or prognostic AI/ML applications. For a ventilator, "ground truth" is established by physical measurements and engineering standards, not expert consensus on data interpretation.

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

    • Not Applicable/Not Provided: This relates to expert review processes for ground truth establishment in data-driven studies.

    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/Not Provided: MRMC studies are used for evaluating diagnostic performance of AI-assisted human readers, which is not relevant for a ventilator's functional clearance.

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

    • Not Applicable/Not Provided: This also pertains to AI/ML algorithm performance. The LTV 1200 is a device operated by a human, not a standalone diagnostic algorithm.

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

    • Not Applicable/Not Provided, but inferred through engineering standards: For a ventilator, the "ground truth" for its performance is derived from physical laws of gas exchange, pressure/flow measurements, and established medical standards for ventilatory support. This is verified through engineering tests, rather than expert consensus on data labels, pathology, or outcomes data in the traditional sense of AI/ML studies.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • Not Applicable/Not Provided: This refers to data used to train AI/ML models.

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

    • Not Applicable/Not Provided: This also refers to AI/ML model training data.

    Summary of the Study (as described in the 510(k) summary):

    The "study" for the LTV 1200 Ventilator, as presented in this 510(k) summary, is not a clinical trial or a data-driven performance study in the AI/ML context. Instead, it is a regulatory submission process aimed at demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices (LTV 1000, iVent 201 Portable Ventilator, AVEA Ventilator).

    • Evidence for Equivalence: The submission implicitly relies on:
      • Description of modifications: The document details the changes from the LTV 1000, which are primarily related to convenience, alarms, and internal components, not fundamental changes to the core ventilation mechanism.
      • Intended Use comparison: The intended use of the LTV 1200 is identical to the LTV 1000 (continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for adults and pediatric patients >5kg in various settings).
      • Technological Characteristics Comparison (implied): While not explicitly detailed in the summary, a full 510(k) submission would include a comparison of technological characteristics between the new device and the predicates, demonstrating that any differences do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. This often involves engineering verification and validation testing, which is assumed to have been performed even if not detailed in the public summary.

    The FDA's clearance (K060647) signifies that they reviewed the provided information and concluded that the LTV 1200 Ventilator, with its modifications, is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and can therefore be marketed without requiring a premarket approval application (PMA) or more extensive clinical trials typical for novel devices.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided 510(k) summary for the Pulmonetic Systems LTV 1000 Ventilator (K051767) primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, particularly regarding a new "Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT)" function. This type of submission, for a ventilator modification, does not typically include detailed performance studies with acceptance criteria in the same way an AI/ML device would.

    Based on the provided document, here's an analysis concerning acceptance criteria and study information:

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

    The document doesn't present a table of quantitative acceptance criteria and reported 'performance' in the sense of a diagnostic or predictive device. Instead, it compares characteristics of the modified LTV 1000 Ventilator with its predicate devices to demonstrate equivalence.

    Characteristic (LTV Modification)Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance (LTV 1000 with SBT Function)
    Spontaneous Breathing (SBT) FunctionFunctionality is comparable to predicate, with beneficial enhancements and no new patient risk or technology.Software Application: The software application to allow input presets for CPAP mode/parameters and alarm parameters is an addition to the existing LTV 1000 preset menu options.
    SBT Time DurationTime duration meets clinician requests (potentially longer).Offers SBT time duration via menu selection from 15-120 minutes. (Predicate LTV 1000 required manual CPAP mode/parameter setting; Engstrom Carestation offered 5-60 minutes). This longer duration is provided at the request of clinicians.
    Safety and RiskNo introduction of additional or new patient risk.The software application "does not introduce any additional or new patient risk or involve the application of new technology." (Comparison to predicate LTV 1000, which required manual CPAP settings and had an alarm for trial end). The predicate Engstrom Carestation also required manual CPAP settings.

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

    This submission is for a modification to a medical device (ventilator software feature), not a diagnostic or AI/ML device that would typically involve a "test set" of patient data for performance evaluation in the way a clinical study would. Therefore, there is no specific sample size, test set, or data provenance mentioned in relation to proving the SBT function's performance. The evaluation is based on engineering design, comparison to predicate devices, and potentially internal validation/verification testing which is not detailed in this public summary.

    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. As this is not a diagnostic device relying on expert interpretation for ground truth, there's no mention of experts establishing ground truth for a test set. The statement about "Longer time duration is provided at the request of clinicians" suggests input from medical professionals informed the feature design, but not for establishing ground truth in a performance study.

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

    Not applicable. There is no test set or adjudication method described in the context of this submission.

    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 not an AI-assisted diagnostic device, and therefore, no MRMC study or AI assistance effect size is mentioned.

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

    Not applicable. The device is a ventilator with a software function. The "performance" is inherent to the function's design and operation, not an algorithm providing a diagnostic output independently.

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

    Not applicable in the traditional sense of a diagnostic performance study. The "ground truth" for the SBT function would be its adherence to engineering specifications, correct implementation of the defined parameters (e.g., timing, mode switching), and safe operation in a simulated or actual clinical environment. This type of validation is typically conducted through internal engineering testing, which is not detailed here but implied by regulatory compliance.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that would require a 'training set'.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device.


    Summary:

    The 510(k) summary for K051767 focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" of a modified ventilator with a new Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) function to previously cleared predicate devices. The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly tied to ensuring the new function is safe, effective, and performs comparably or superiorly without introducing new risks compared to existing methods or devices. The "study" proving this largely relies on design comparison, engineering assessment of the software modification, and the assertion that it does not introduce new technology or patient risk. It does not involve a clinical performance study with patient data, ground truth establishment, or human reader evaluations as would be expected for a diagnostic or AI/ML device.

    Device Description

    The LTV 1000 ventilator is intended to provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation. The ventilator is suitable for use in institutional, home and transport settings, and is applicable for adult and pediatric patients weighing at least 5 kg (11 lbs.), who require the following types of ventilatory support:

    The modification intended to be cleared by this submission is:

    The addition of commercially available heated wire breathing circuit inspiratory/expiratory limbs manufactured and distributed by Allegiance Healthcare Corporation (K000697), as an option to the ventilator breathing circuits specified for use

    AI/ML Overview

    This 510(k) submission (K040790) describes a modification to the LTV 1000 Ventilator, specifically the addition of commercially available heated wire breathing circuits. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices rather than presenting a novel device requiring extensive performance testing against acceptance criteria in the traditional sense. Therefore, the details requested regarding a specific "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" and related metrics are not explicitly provided in this document as it pertains to a new device.

    However, based on the provided text, we can infer the implicit "acceptance criteria" and "device performance" in terms of establishing substantial equivalence and the testing methods typically involved for such modifications.

    Inferred Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (Table 1)

    Given that this is a 510(k) for a modification focused on incorporating existing, cleared components (heated wire breathing circuits) into a cleared ventilator system, the primary "acceptance criterion" is demonstating that the modified system maintains the safety and effectiveness of the predicate device and the added components when integrated. This is typically achieved through:

    • Substantial Equivalence: The modified device performs as intended and is as safe and effective as the predicate device(s).
    • Performance Testing: Verification of critical ventilator parameters and circuit performance within established engineering specifications and relevant standards. This might involve pressure, flow, volume delivery, temperature control (for the heated circuits), and alarm functionality.
    • Biocompatibility: Ensuring that the materials of the new breathing circuits are biocompatible with patient contact.
    • Electrical Safety and EMC: Compliance with relevant electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards.

    Since the document is a summary for a 510(k), explicit, detailed acceptance criteria values (e.g., "flow rate must be within ±5% of set value") are not laid out, nor are specific performance testing results presented as a report. Instead, the "reported device performance" is implied by the statement of substantial equivalence and the expectation that the combined system meets the performance of its cleared predicate components.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance (Implied by Substantial Equivalence and K Numbers)
    The modified LTV 1000 Ventilator circuit system is substantially equivalent to predicate devices (LTV 1000 Ventilator K981371, Allegiance Airlife Heated Ventilator Breathing Circuits K000697) in terms of safety and effectiveness.The submission states that the "LTV 1000 Ventilator with breathing circuits with the modification listed are substantially equivalent to the EP 1000 ventilator/breathing circuits (K981371) and the Allegiance Airlife Heated the products = r = 1000 (K000697), intended for use with commercially available ventilators." This is the core finding of the 510(k) clearance process.
    The heated wire breathing circuits (Allegiance Airlife) function as intended to provide heated and humidified air.The new components (Allegiance Airlife Heated Ventilator Breathing Circuits, K000697) are commercially available and have a prior 510(k) clearance, indicating their individual performance for this function has already been established. The submission details the specific models of the Allegiance Airlife Heated Wire Inspiratory/Expiratory Limbs being incorporated, replacing previous PSI Adult/Pediatric Inspiratory Limbs. The integration with external, commercially available humidifiers (Fisher & Paykel Models: MR 730 (K913368), MR 850 (K020332)) is also noted, implying their established performance.
    All specified LTV 1000 Ventilator functions (e.g., ventilation modes, breath types, patient weight range, use settings) are maintained with the modified breathing circuits.The LTV 1000 Ventilator's core functionalities (Positive Pressure Ventilation, Assist/Control, SIMV, CPAP, Volume, Pressure Control, Pressure Support breath types, for adult/pediatric patients ≥ 5 kg, in institutional/home/transport settings) are explicitly stated to be the same as the predicate device (K981371 and subsequent clearances), and there's no indication that the breathing circuit modification alters these. This is implicit in the substantial equivalence claim.
    The device modification does not introduce new safety concerns or risks.The entire purpose of the 510(k) process for modifications is to ensure that new device safety concerns are not introduced. The discussion of differences and similarities (pages 2-3) confirms the component replacement and length reduction in some circuits, but the substantial equivalence claim implies no new safety concerns. The use of already cleared components (K000697 for the breathing circuits, K913368/K020332 for humidifiers) reinforces this.

    Detailed Study Information (Based on 510(k) Modification Context)

    1. Sample Size used for the test set and the data provenance:

      • Test Set Sample Size: The document does not specify a "test set" sample size in terms of patient data. For a 510(k) modification focused on component integration and substantial equivalence, testing would involve engineering verification and validation (V&V) on a sufficient number of device units (physical ventilators with the new circuits) to demonstrate performance against specifications and compliance with standards. The specific number of units tested is not provided in this summary.
      • Data Provenance: The data provenance would primarily be from internal engineering and quality testing conducted by Pulmonetic Systems, Inc. on their modified LTV 1000 Ventilator system. Additionally, the pre-existing clearance (K000697) of the Allegiance Airlife Heated Ventilator Breathing Circuits would draw upon its original test data. This is prospective testing related to the manufacturing and verification of the modified device before market entry. Country of origin for testing is implied to be the US (Minneapolis, Minnesota for Pulmonetic Systems, Inc.).
    2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

      • This question is largely not applicable in the context of this 510(k) modification. "Ground truth" established by external experts (like radiologists for imaging) is relevant for diagnostic devices or AI algorithms where clinical accuracy is being assessed. For a ventilator modification, the "ground truth" for performance is established by engineering specifications, international standards (e.g., ISO for ventilators), and existing predicate device performance. Device validation would be performed by qualified engineers and technicians, not typically by external clinical "experts" establishing a "ground truth" for a test set in the way this question implies. Clinical experts would inform requirements and user needs, but they wouldn't perform ground truth adjudication on device performance data in this manner.
    3. Adjudication method for the test set:

      • Not Applicable in the sense of clinical adjudication. Device performance testing against specifications typically involves defined measurement protocols, acceptance criteria, and verification by qualified test personnel. Discrepancies would be resolved through standard engineering and quality assurance processes, not a multi-reader, multi-case adjudication method.
    4. 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 ventilator device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging system. Therefore, MRMC studies and "human readers improve with AI" metrics are irrelevant to this submission.
    5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

      • Not Applicable. This is a hardware modification for a ventilator, not an algorithm or AI system.
    6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

      • The "ground truth" in this context is based on engineering specifications, compliance with recognized national and international standards for medical devices (specifically ventilators and breathing circuits), and the established safety and performance profile of the predicate devices. This includes physical and functional performance measurements, material biocompatibility, electrical safety, and electromagnetic compatibility.
    7. The sample size for the training set:

      • Not Applicable. This is for a hardware modification, not a machine learning or AI algorithm development that requires a training set. The "training" for such a device would be the design and development process adhering to a quality management system.
    8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

      • Not Applicable. See point 7.
