    Intended Use

    The NaviAid™ ICVI device is an accessory to an endoscope and is intended to ensure positioning of a standard endoscope in the small intestine (i.e., an endoscope that is used for standard intestinal endoscopic visualization and has a compatible instrument channel as defined in the instructions for use)

    Device Description

    The modified NaviAid™ ICVI is an on-demand disposable that is inserted through the instrument channel of the endoscope in order to enable advancement and positioning of a standard endoscope in the small intestine. The modified NaviAid™ ICVI Device comprises a disposable balloon system and an air supply control unit for inflating and deflating the balloon system. The role of the ICVI disposable is to facilitate advancement of a standard endoscope into the small intestine. The modified NaviAid™ ICVI disposable includes the ICVI Balloon and the ICVI inflation tube. The balloon is inflated by ambient air. Either the Air Supply Unit ("ASU") or Single Balloon Air Supply Unit ("SB ASU") may operate and control the inflation and deflation of the balloon through a foot-pedal. The balloon is connected to a dedicated inflation tube that runs inside the instrument channel of the endoscope, and is connected at its proximal (user) end to the ASU or SB ASU.

    The ICVI balloon can be advanced ahead of the endoscope tip or pulled back through pushing/pulling action on the ICVI inflation tube at its proximal side, outside the patient's body. When the ICVI balloon is advanced and then inflated, it functions as a distal anchor, to which the endoscope tip is advanced, and the ICVI inflation tube serves as a rail that leads the endoscope as it is pushed towards the anchoring ICVI balloon.

    The balloon and tube negligibly compromise the endoscope's flexibility, or its field of view. Additionally, the ICVI disposable negligibly compromise the maneuverability of the endoscope's tip and does not limit the usage of any standard endoscopy tools, such as biopsy forceps, snare, needle etc. The ICVI disposable can be pulled back at any time during the procedure in order to allow use of therapy tools.

    The NaviAid™ ICVI disposable is intended for-single use, while the ASU and SB ASU are re-usable.

    Intended Use

    The NaviAid™ BGC device is an accessory to an endoscope and is intended to ensure positioning of a standard endoscope during endoscopy of the small and large intestine (standard endoscope-i.e., an endoscope that has an instrument channel that is at least 3.7mm diameter and is used for standard endoscopic visualization).

    Device Description

    The modified NaviAid™ BGC is an on-demand disposable that is inserted through the instrument channel of the endoscope in order to enable advancement and positioning of a standard endoscope in the small and large intestine.

    The modified NaviAid™ BGC system comprises a disposable balloon system and an Air Supply Unit ("ASU") or a Single Balloon - Air Supply Unit ("SB ASU") for inflating and deflating the balloon system.

    The role of the BGC disposable is to facilitate advancement of a standard endoscope into the small and large intestine. The NaviAid™ BGC disposable includes the BGC Balloon and the BGC inflation tube. The balloon is inflated by ambient air. The ASU or SB ASU operate and control the inflation and deflation of the balloon through a foot-pedal. The balloon is connected to a dedicated inflation tube that runs inside the instrument channel of the endoscope, and is connected at its proximal (user) end to the ASU or SB ASU.

    The BGC balloon can be advanced ahead of the endoscope tip or pulled back through pushing/pulling action on the BGC inflation tube at its proximal side, outside the patient's body. When the BGC balloon is advanced and then inflated, it functions as a distal anchor, to which the endoscope tip is advanced, and the BGC inflation tube serves as a rail that leads the endoscope as it is pushed towards the anchoring BGC balloon.

    The balloon and tube negligibly compromise the endoscope's flexibility, or its field of view. Additionally, the BGC disposable negligibly compromise the maneuverability of the endoscope's tip and does not limit the usage of any standard endoscopy tools. During the procedure the disposable can be removed from the instrument channel of the endoscope and a therapy tool may be inserted instead.

    The NaviAid™ BGC disposable is intended for single use, while the ASU and SB ASU are re-usable.

    The NaviAid™ BGC device is an accessory to an endoscope and is intended to ensure positioning of a standard endoscope during endoscopy of the small and large intestine (standard endoscope-i.e., an endoscope that has an instrument channel that is at least 3.7mm diameter and is used for standard endoscopic visualization).

    Device Description

    The NaviAid™ BGC Disposable is an on-demand disposable that is inserted through the instrument channel of the endoscope in order to ensure positioning of a standard endoscope during endoscopy of the large or small intestine (standard endoscope - i.e., an endoscope that has an instrument channel that is at least 3.7mm diameter and is used for standard endoscopic visualization). The NaviAid™ BGC system comprises a disposable balloon system and an Air Supply Unit for inflating and deflating the balloon system. The role of the BGC disposable is to facilitate advancement of a standard endoscope into the large and/or small intestine. The NaviAid™ BGC Disposable includes the BGC Balloon and the BGC inflation tube. The balloon is inflated by ambient air. The Air Supply Unit ("ASU") operates and controls the inflation and deflation of the balloon through a footpedal. The balloon is connected to a dedicated inflation tube that runs inside the instrument channel of the endoscope, and is connected at its proximal (user) end to the ASU. The BGC balloon can be advanced ahead of the endoscope tip or pulled back by pushing/pulling action on the BGC inflation tube at its proximal side, outside the patient's body. When the BGC balloon is advanced and then inflated, it functions as a distal anchor, to which the endoscope tip is advanced, and the BGC inflation tube serves as a "guide wire" that leads the endoscope as it is pushed towards the anchoring BGC balloon.

    AI/ML Overview

    The NaviAid™ BGC device is designed as an accessory to an endoscope to facilitate its positioning in the small and large intestine. The device's performance was evaluated through a series of non-clinical tests to demonstrate its conformance to design specifications and safety requirements.

    Biocompatibility Testing (ISO 10993)Ensure patient contact materials are biocompatible.All patient contact materials comply with biocompatibility testing and voluntary recognized standards.

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

    The document explicitly states "Clinical Performance Data: Not Applicable." Therefore, there was no test set involving human subjects. The performance evaluations were conducted through non-clinical, in-vitro testing. The data provenance is internal to Smart Medical Systems Ltd., Israel, as all listed test document numbers appear to be internal company documents (e.g., Doc. No. TP310001).

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

    Not applicable, as no clinical test set with human subjects requiring expert ground truth establishment was conducted. The non-clinical tests would have been evaluated against engineering and design specifications by internal company engineers and quality assurance personnel.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable, as no clinical test set requiring adjudication was conducted.

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

    No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was conducted. The document states "Clinical Performance Data: Not Applicable."

    6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)

    Since this is a mechanical accessory device, the concept of "standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance)" does not directly apply in the typical AI context. The device itself is designed as an accessory to be used with a human-operated endoscope. Its performance was evaluated in terms of its mechanical, electrical, and material properties. The non-clinical tests listed serve as the "standalone" performance evaluation of the device's technical specifications and safety attributes independent of clinical human performance outcomes.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    For the non-clinical tests, the ground truth was established by adherence to:

    • Engineering and Design Specifications: Each test (e.g., BGC Air Leakage, Component Bond Strength) would have specific quantitative or qualitative criteria defined during the device's design phase.
    • International Standards: Compliance with recognized standards like IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-4, and ISO 10993 served as the ground truth for safety, electrical, mechanical, software, and biocompatibility aspects.
    • Simulated Conditions: The "BGC In-Vitro Validation Test" implies testing in a simulated environment to assess the device's functional performance in a context mimicking its intended use.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. The NaviAid™ BGC device is a mechanical accessory, not an AI or machine learning algorithm, and therefore does not have a "training set" in the conventional sense.

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

    Not applicable, as there is no training set for this device.

    Intended Use

    The NaviAid ™ BGE device is an accessory to an endoscope and is intended to ensure complete positioning of a standard endoscope in the small intestine (i.e., an endoscope that is 10-13 mm in diameter and is used for standard intestinal endoscopic visualization).

    Device Description

    The NaviAid™ BGE affords deep access into the small intestine, while maintaining all the advantages of an endoscopic procedure, such as back-and-forth navigation, stopping propagation if needed, real-time operation, video imaging, working channel including biopsy and treatment. The NaviAid™ Balloon Guided Endoscopy (BGE) system comprises an accessory kit containing the disposable balloon system and an air supply control unit for inflating and deflating the balloon system. The role of the Balloon Guided Endoscopy (BGE) disposable accessory kit is to facilitate advancement of a standard endoscope deeper into the small intestine. The NaviAid™ BGE system "upgrades" standard endoscopes to a double balloon endoscopy system. The NaviAid™ BGE accessory kit includes two balloons - the Guiding Balloon for Small Intestine ("GBS") and the Stabilizing Balloon ("SB"). Both balloons are inflated by ambient air. The Air Supply Unit ("ASU") operates and controls the inflation and deflation of the two balloons through two foot-pedals. Each balloon is connected to a dedicated tube that runs along the endoscope, and is connected at its proximal (user) end to the ASU. The balloon tubes are attached to the endoscope with clips and silicon bands. The NaviAid™ BGE accessory kit is mounted (deflated) on the tip of the endoscope, and is inserted with the endoscope into the gastrointestinal tract of the patient. The SB is the proximal balloon that is used to anchor the endoscope (near its tip) to the intestinal wall. The GBS is the distal balloon that can be advanced ahead of the endoscope tip or pulled back through pushing/pulling action on the GBS inflation tube at its proximal side, outside the patient body. When the GBS balloon is advanced and then inflated, it functions as a distal anchor, to which the endoscope tip (now with a deflated balloon) is advanced, and the GBS inflation tube serves as a "guidewire" that leads the endoscope as it is pushed towards the GBS anchoring location. The sequence of inflation and deflation of the balloons enables "pleating the small intestine on to the endoscope" or forming a rail on which the endoscope can be guided and advanced towards the GBS anchoring location. The balloons and tubes do not compromise the endoscope's flexibility, although its field of view may be reduced by up to 8%. Additionally, the balloons do not significantly compromise the maneuverability of the endoscope's tip and do not limit the usage of any standard endoscopy tools, such as biopsy forceps, snare, needle etc. The NaviAid BGE accessory kit is disposable and intended for single use, while the ASU is re-usable.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document describes the NaviAid™ BGE device and its non-clinical performance tests to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the Fujinon Double Balloon Endoscopy System. There is no information regarding a study defining acceptance criteria, and then proving the device meets that criteria. The document states "Clinical Performance Data: Not Applicable".

    Here's an analysis of the provided information as it relates to your questions:

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

    The document does not explicitly present a table of acceptance criteria with corresponding performance results. Instead, it lists several non-clinical performance tests conducted without specifying quantitative acceptance criteria or detailed results for each. The conclusion drawn is that "The non-clinical tests demonstrated that the NaviAid™ BGE device meets its design and performance specifications."

    2. Sample size 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. The document focuses on non-clinical tests rather than clinical studies with test sets of patient data.

    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 information is not applicable as no clinical study with a "test set" and "ground truth" established by experts is described.

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

    This information is not applicable as no clinical study with a "test set" requiring 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

    No such study was done. The device is an accessory to an endoscope, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, and the document explicitly states "Clinical Performance Data: Not Applicable".

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

    This is not applicable. The NaviAid™ BGE device is a physical accessory used with a human-operated endoscope, not a standalone algorithm.

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

    This is not applicable as no clinical study generating "ground truth" is described. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests would have been the engineering specifications and test protocols designed to ensure the device functions as intended.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    This is not applicable as there is no mention of a "training set" for an algorithm. The device is a physical medical accessory, not an AI model.

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

    This is not applicable as there is no "training set."

    Summary of available information related to acceptance criteria and performance:

    The document lists the following non-clinical performance tests conducted on the NaviAid™ BGE device:

    • Electrical & Mechanical Safety Testing (IEC 60601-1)
    • Electromagnetic Compatibility Testing (IEC 60601-1-2)
    • Software Validation (IEC 60601-1-4 & FDA Guidelines)
    • Biocompatibility Testing (ISO 10993)
    • ASU Test
    • Bond Strength Test
    • Air Leakage Test
    • Balloon Burst Pressure Test
    • GBS Inflation Tube & Bending Radius Test
    • Endoscope Flexibility & Insertion Test
    • Components Degradation Test
    • Endoscope Diameter Test
    • GBS Inflation/Deflation Cycle Test
    • ASU Connections
    • Disposables Mounting Testing
    • In-Vitro Validation Test
    • Packaging Validation

    The document concludes that "The non-clinical tests demonstrated that the NaviAid™ BGE device meets its design and performance specifications." It also states, "Furthermore, the tests showed that the NaviAid™ BGE device is easy to use and user friendly and does not cause damage to the intestine."

    Essentially, the "acceptance criteria" here are implied to be the successful completion and passing of these various non-clinical engineering and safety standards/tests. The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" is the execution of these listed non-clinical tests, with the reported device performance being that it "meets its design and performance specifications."
