    Intended Use

    SINCLAIR ALOCLAIR™ ORAL GEL is indicated for pain relief in all types of mouth lesions, aphthous stomatitis, aphthous ulcers, minor lesions, chafing and traumatic ulcers and abrasions caused by braces and ill fitting dentures and diffused aphthous ulcers. Aloclair Gel forms a protective film that covers lesions to provide rapid pain relief, and avoid further irritation.

    Device Description

    ALOCLAIR™ ORAL GEL is a viscous gel formulation, which is presented for over-the-counter use premixed in various sizes. This combination of substances, when rinsed around the mouth, forms a protective layer over the oral mucosa.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text does not contain detailed information about specific acceptance criteria or an in-depth study proving the device meets those criteria, as one might find for a more complex medical device with quantifiable performance metrics (e.g., diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity).

    The document is a 510(k) summary for Sinclair Aloclair™ Oral Gel, which is a wound and burn dressing (hydrogel with drug or biologic) for oral use. The approval for this device is based on substantial equivalence to predicate devices already on the market, rather than a novel claim requiring extensive new clinical trials with detailed performance metrics.

    Based on the provided text, here's what can be extracted and inferred:

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

    Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Substantial Equivalence)Reported Device Performance
    Intended Use: Pain relief in various mouth lesions (aphthous stomatitis, ulcers, minor lesions, chafing, traumatic ulcers, abrasions from braces/dentures, diffused aphthous ulcers).Indication: "SINCLAIR ALOCLAIR™ ORAL GEL is indicated for pain relief in all types of mouth lesions, aphthous stomatitis, aphthous ulcers, minor lesions, chafing and traumatic ulcers and abrasions caused by braces and ill fitting dentures and diffused aphthous ulcers. Aloclair Gel forms a protective film that covers lesions to provide rapid pain relief, and avoid further irritation." (This is essentially the stated intended use).
    Technological Characteristics: Similar method of use, number of applications per day, claim (pain management/relief, non-irritating, non-stinging, safe if swallowed), area of use (oral mucosa), disease state (aphthous ulcers, stomatitis, oral lesions), product type (oral gel/rinse/mouthwash), presentation (non-sterile).The device's characteristics are presented as "the same" as predicate devices (Aloclair Rinse cleared in K023155, Gelclair Concentrated Oral Gel cleared in K013056, and AloeCeuticals OraRinse™). The table provided lists these characteristics and shows how Aloclair Gel aligns with its predicates.
    Safety and Effectiveness: Demonstrate safety and effectiveness comparable to predicate devices for the stated intended use."Extensive functional and performance testing were conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of Aloclair® ORAL GEL. All results are satisfactory." (This is a general statement without specific data or metrics).
    Regulatory Classification: Unclassified.The FDA letter confirms the device is unclassified and can be legally marketed subject to general controls.

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

    • The document does not specify a sample size for a test set in the context of a clinical performance study.
    • The review is based on substantial equivalence to predicate devices, implying that the safety and effectiveness were primarily supported by the established history and regulatory status of those predicates, combined with functional and performance testing (likely bench or in-vitro, but not specified as a human clinical test set).
    • The provenance of data for any "functional and performance testing" is not detailed (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective).

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

    • Not applicable. The document does not describe a clinical study that required expert consensus for ground truth establishment.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Not applicable. There is no described clinical test set requiring 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:

    • Not applicable. This device is a topical oral gel, not an AI-powered diagnostic or treatment device, so MRMC studies are not relevant.

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

    • Not applicable. This device is a topical oral gel, not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • The "ground truth" for the substantial equivalence claim is largely established by the regulatory history and accepted safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices for their indications. For the functional and performance testing mentioned, the "ground truth" would be objective measures of the gel's properties (e.g., pH, viscosity, stability, barrier formation ability), but these are not detailed in the summary.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This device is a medical product, not an AI model, so there is no "training set."

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

    • Not applicable.

    Intended Use

    Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, SALINUM® has been formulated for the relief of chronic and temporary xerostomia (dry mouth), which may be a result of disease, medication, oncology therapy, stress or aging.

    Over the counter Labeling stipulates that ORACLAIR has been formulated for the relief of dry mouth symptoms such as difficulties in swallowing, speech and changes in taste. These symptoms may be brought on by disease, stress, aging or medication.

    Device Description

    SALINUM® / ORACLAIR is an oral saliva substitute which contains gel-forming substances (polysaccharides) from linseed that have lubricating and moistening properties. The product is preserved, buffered and packed in white PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles of various sizes with polypropylene disc top caps or single dose (2ml) polythene pipettes in strips of 10 packed in a cardboard carton.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets them in the format requested.

    The document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called SALINUM® / ORACLAIR, an artificial saliva intended for the relief of dry mouth. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than presenting a performance study with detailed acceptance criteria.

    Here's a breakdown of why the requested information is absent:

    1. Acceptance Criteria Table and Reported Device Performance: This information is not present. The submission states, "Functional and performance testing has been conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of SALINUM® and all results are satisfactory." However, it does not specify what those criteria were or detail the performance metrics.
    2. Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance: No details about a specific test set, its sample size, or data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective) are mentioned.
    3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth: Since no performance study against a ground truth is described, there is no mention of experts or their qualifications.
    4. Adjudication Method: Not applicable as no adjudication process is detailed.
    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study: No MRMC study, or any comparison to human reader performance, is mentioned.
    6. Standalone Performance Study: While "functional and performance testing" is mentioned, no specific standalone algorithm performance study with detailed results, metrics, or methodology is provided. The submission primarily focuses on equivalence.
    7. Type of Ground Truth Used: No ground truth is described for a performance study.
    8. Sample Size for Training Set: This is not applicable as SALINUM® / ORACLAIR is a pharmaceutical product (saliva substitute), not an AI/algorithm-based device that would require training data.
    9. How Ground Truth for Training Set Was Established: Not applicable for the reasons stated above.

    The document is a regulatory submission for a physical medical device (oral solution), not an AI/software device that would typically involve the type of performance evaluation outlined in your request. The "Tests and Conclusions" section simply states that "functional and performance testing has been conducted... and all results are satisfactory," without providing details of these tests, criteria, or results.

    Intended Use

    Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, SINCLAIR SST™ promotes lubrication of oral mucosa that may be dry (xerostomia) due to, as may occur in a variety of circumstances including, medication, chemo or radiotherapy, Sjogren's Syndrome or oral inflammation. SINCLAIR SST TM provides temporary relief for damaged salivary function.

    Over the counter labeling stipulates that SINCLAIR SST™ is suitable for temporary relief of dry mouth symptoms.

    Device Description

    SST™ is formulated as a tablet that is allowed to dissolve slowly in the mouth. The tablets are presented in containers of various counts. They contain a mixture of electrolytes in a pleasant flavored tablet.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided 510(k) summary for Sinclair SST™ focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study involving quantitative measurements like those typically associated with AI/ML device evaluations.

    Therefore, many of the requested categories for AI/ML device studies are not applicable to this submission. The device is a "Saliva Supporting Tablet" for dry mouth relief, not an AI/ML diagnostic or prognostic tool.

    Here's a breakdown based on the available information:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    This 510(k) submission does not present specific quantitative acceptance criteria or detailed performance metrics from a clinical study for the Sinclair SST™ in the way that would be expected for an AI/ML device. Instead, the "acceptance criteria" for a 510(k) submission like this are primarily based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices in terms of intended use, technological characteristics, and safety and effectiveness.

    The "performance" is implicitly deemed acceptable if it is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied by 510(k))Reported Device Performance (Summary from 510(k))
    Safety and Effectiveness:"Functional and performance testing has been conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of SSTTM and all results are satisfactory."
    - No new questions of safety/effectiveness are raised compared to predicates.Directly addressed by substantial equivalence claim.
    - Device functions as intended for its stated indications for use.As described in Section 5, the device "promotes lubrication of oral mucosa that may be dry (xerostomia)... provides temporary relief for damaged salivary function."
    Technological Characteristics:Method of Use: Ready to use (similar to Salivart, Caphosol requires mixing)
    - Similar method of use, number of applications, claim, area of use, disease state, and presentation compared to predicates.# of applications per day: Take as needed up to 16 tablets per day (similar to predicates "Take as needed")
    Claim: Symptomatic treatment of xerostomia (identical to predicates)
    Area of Use: Oral cavity (identical to predicates)
    Disease State: Xerostomia (identical to predicates)
    Type of Product: Tablet (different from predicates which are solutions, but not considered a new question of safety/effectiveness)
    Presentation: Non Sterile (identical to predicates)

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

    • Not Applicable. This 510(k) summary does not describe a clinical "test set" in the context of an AI/ML device evaluation. The "functional and performance testing" mentioned is general and not detailed with specific sample sizes or data provenance for a clinical trial. The basis of equivalence is largely on the comparison of technological characteristics and intended use.

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

    • Not Applicable. As there is no described clinical test set with a ground truth assessment by experts in the context of an AI/ML evaluation.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Not Applicable. No clinical test set with expert adjudication is described.

    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 or prognostic device, so an MRMC study is irrelevant.

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

    • Not Applicable. This is a physical product (a tablet), not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • Not Applicable. There is no "ground truth" used in the context of an AI/ML evaluation, as this is a physical device submission focused on substantial equivalence. The "safety and effectiveness" assessment would have involved standard medical device testing, likely chemical and physical property evaluations for the tablet, and possibly small-scale human user perception studies (though not detailed here) rather than a diagnostic 'ground truth.'

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML device, so there is no training set.

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

    • Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML device, so there is no ground truth for a training set.

    Summary based on the provided document:

    The 510(k) submission for Sinclair SST™ is for a medical device (saliva supporting tablets) and is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed predicate devices (Gebauer Company Salivart and Inpharma AB Caphosol). The determination of substantial equivalence means the device is considered as safe and effective as the predicate devices. The "tests and conclusions" section states that "Functional and performance testing has been conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of SSTTM and all results are satisfactory," but does not provide specific details about these tests, methodologies, or quantitative results that would be expected in a performance study for an AI/ML algorithm.

    Summary of Device and Basis for Clearance:

    The ALOCLAIR™ ORAL RINSE is a viscous gel formulation intended for over-the-counter use to provide rapid pain relief from aphthous ulcers, canker sores, and minor oral lesions.

    The basis for the 510(k) clearance is substantial equivalence to two predicate devices:

    • Sinclair Gelclair Concentrated Oral Gel (K013056)
    • AloeCeuticals (Carrington Lab) OraRinse (K983182)

    The submission highlights that ALOCLAIR™ ORAL RINSE has the "same intended/indications for use" as these predicate devices. A comparison table (Section 6) details the technological characteristics, showing similarities in claims, area of use, disease state, and presentation (non-sterile), with minor differences in method of use (pre-mixed vs. mix with water) and product type (oral rinse/mouthwash vs. concentrate for dilution).

    The document states that "Functional and performance testing were conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of Aloclair® ORAL RINSE. All results are satisfactory." However, it does not provide specific details about these tests, the acceptance criteria, or the actual performance results in a quantifiable manner. The FDA's letter (Section 2, 3) confirms the determination of substantial equivalence, allowing the device to be marketed.

    Intended Use

    Sinclair Gelclair® CONCENTRATED ORAL GEL, has a mechanical action indicated for the management of pain and relief of pain, by adhering to the mucosal surface of the mouth, soothing oral lesions of various etiologies, including: Oral Mucositis/Stomatitis (may be caused by chemotherapy or radiotherapy), irritation due to oral surgery, and traumatic ulcers caused by braces or ill fitting dentures, or disease. Also indicated also for diffuse aphthous ulcers.

    Device Description

    Sinclair Pharmaceuticals, Ltd. Gelclair® CONCENTRATED ORAL GEL is a viscous gel formulation, which is presented in a sachet of 15ml for mixing with 40ml of water. This combination of substances, when washed around the mouth, forms a protective layer over the oral mucosa.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Gelclair® CONCENTRATED ORAL GEL), focusing on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a study proving performance against acceptance criteria. Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, and AI performance is not available in the provided text.

    Based on the available text, here's what can be extracted:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria or quantify device performance in terms of metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or improvement effect sizes. The submission focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device, which inherently implies that if the new device has similar technological characteristics and intended use, its performance is considered acceptable.

    Acceptance Criteria (Not explicitly stated in the document)Reported Device Performance (Implied)
    Safety and Effectiveness"Extensive functional and performance testing were conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of Gelclair® CONCENTRATED ORAL GEL. All results are satisfactory." (This is a general statement, not specific performance metrics.)
    Substantial Equivalence to Predicate Device* Similar intended use (management and relief of pain for oral lesions).* Similar method of use (mix with water, take as needed).* Similar area of use (oral mucosa).* Similar disease state (Oral Mucositis/Stomatitis/Oral Lesions).* Similar product type (concentrate for dilution).* Similar presentation (non-sterile).

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

    The document does not mention a specific "test set" in the context of an algorithm or AI. It refers to "Extensive functional and performance testing," but does not provide details on sample sizes or data provenance for these tests. There is no indication of retrospective or prospective data.

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

    Not applicable. This document does not describe a study involving human experts establishing ground truth for a test set, as it relates to an oral gel, not an AI or diagnostic device that requires expert interpretation.

    4. Adjudication Method

    Not applicable. There's no mention of adjudication for a test set.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device is a "CONCENTRATED ORAL GEL" for pain management, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

    6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study Was Done

    No, a standalone (algorithm only) performance study was not done. This device is an oral gel, not an algorithm.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    Not applicable in the context of an AI device. For the oral gel, "ground truth" would relate to the clinical effectiveness of pain relief and mucosal adherence, likely assessed through clinical trials or user experience, which are not detailed in this 510(k) summary beyond the general statement of "satisfactory" results.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. There is no mention of a "training set" as the device is not an AI algorithm.

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

    Not applicable. There is no training set for this device.
