2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document primarily refers to "in-vitro testing" and "bench testing." It does not specify sample sizes for these tests, nor does it provide information on data provenance in terms of country of origin or whether it was retrospective or prospective, as these are typically considerations for human clinical trials.
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 to the non-clinical bench testing described in this document. Experts are typically involved in establishing ground truth for clinical studies or evaluating images/data from human subjects.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This information is not applicable to the non-clinical bench testing described in this document. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies when multiple readers/experts are interpreting results from human subjects.
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 MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The submission explicitly states: "No clinical data is relied upon in this submission to determine substantial equivalence." The device is a wound dressing, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This question is not applicable as the device is a wound dressing, not an AI algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
For the non-clinical bench testing, the "ground truth" would be established by the validated methodologies and reference standards of the respective in-vitro and laboratory tests (e.g., AATCC TM100-2019 for antimicrobial effectiveness, ISO 10993 for biocompatibility). These standards define what constitutes an acceptable performance or outcome for that specific test.
8. The sample size for the training set
This is not applicable. There is no mention of a "training set" as this device is a physical wound dressing and not an AI/machine learning model.

The VERSAJET III Hydrosurgery System cuts, ablates and foreign matter from wounds via pressurized saline. The system is intended for applications that in the physician's judgment, require sharp debridement:
- wound debridement (acute and chronic wounds, burns),
- soft tissue debridement and cleansing of surgical sites.
The VERSAJET III Hydrosurgery System consists of a reusable console, foot pedal and single-use, sterile hand pieces.
The VERSAJET III Hydrosurgery System can be used to cut, ablate and remove tissue and foreign matter from wounds and to resect and remove material in a variety of surgical applications. This is a debridement system intended for wound and soft tissue debridement, and cleansing of the surgical site. This is achieved yia the delivery of a pressurized stream of sterile saline fluid acts to tangentially ablate the surface of the tissue and propel excised tissue and debris out of the wound. The debris and fluid are directed into the handpiece into a flexible tube, which carries the effluent to the drain or collection canister.
The pressure can be adjusted using either the foot switch or on the touchscreen front panel of the console. Pressure settings range from 1-10 in factory pre-set increments, with the pressure increasing with each higher setting number, depending on the needs of a particular application.
The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the VERSAJET III Hydrosurgery System. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria through a comprehensive clinical study with quantitative performance metrics for AI applications. The device described (a hydrosurgery system) is a physical medical device, not an AI or software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD) that typically relies on algorithms and data for its function.
Therefore, many of the requested categories in your prompt related to AI/algorithm performance (e.g., sample size for test set, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set details) are not applicable to this traditional medical device submission.
However, I can extract information related to the device's "performance" in the context of a 510(k) (which means demonstrating safety and effectiveness compared to a predicate) and non-clinical testing.

7. The type of ground truth used
- Not Applicable. Ground truth, in the context of AI, refers to the verified correct output for a given input. For this device, "ground truth" would relate to engineering specifications, safety standards, and functional performance benchmarks (e.g., a handpiece reliably delivers X pressure, a safety cutoff activates at Y point, components withstand Z cycles). The document does not detail specific "ground truth" methods beyond adherence to standards and demonstrating equivalence to predicate performance.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI model that requires a training set of data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not Applicable. As above, no training set for an AI model.
In summary, the provided document details a 510(k) submission for a conventional medical device (hydrosurgery system). The "acceptance criteria" and "study" refer to non-clinical engineering and performance testing aimed at demonstrating the device's safety, effectiveness, and substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than the performance metrics and ground truth methodologies typically associated with AI/SaMD products.

- Chronic
- Acute
- · Traumatic
- Sub-acute and dehisced wounds
- · Ulcers (such as pressure or diabetic)
- Partial-thickness burns
- · Flaps
- · Grafts
When used with the RENASYS AB Abdominal Kit with Soft Port, the RENASYS EDGE pump is indicated for temporary bridging of abdominal wall openings where primary closure is not possible and/or repeat abdominal entries are necessary. It is intended to be used in open abdominal wounds with exposed viscera, including but not limited to abdominal compartment syndrome. The use of RENASYS AB Abdominal Kit with Soft Port is intended for use in acute hospital care settings (trauma, general and plastic surgery wards) and should ideally be applied in the operating theatre.
The RENASYS EDGE device is a software controlled suction device consisting of an electric motor driven, diaphragm, vacuum pump. The device is designed to provide Negative Pressure Wound Therapy at a range of pressure settings between 25-200mmHg to a closed environment over one or two wounds. The device removes exudate from the wound site(s) to a disposable container, which may promote wound healing via removal of fluids, including irrigation of body fluids, wound exudates and infectious materials.
RENASYS EDGE can be operated by either a mains power supply or internal battery. The RENASYS EDGE device is compatible with Smith & Nephew RENASYS Dressing Kits.
The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for the RENASYS EDGE device, a negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) system. Based on the document, here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study performed:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly present a table of acceptance criteria with reported device performance in a quantitative manner as typically seen for diagnostic devices. Instead, it lists various verification activities conducted to demonstrate the overall system performance and substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly linked to compliance with relevant medical device standards and the successful completion of specific types of testing to ensure the device performs as intended and is safe and effective when compared to the predicate device.
Acceptance Criteria (Implicit) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Electrical Safety (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-11) | Successful completion of electrical safety testing per IEC 60601-1 (general medical electrical equipment) and IEC 60601-1-11 (for home healthcare environment). |
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC per IEC 60601-1-2) | Successful completion of EMC testing per IEC 60601-1-2. |
Human Factors/Usability (IEC 62366, IEC 60601-1-6, FDA Guidance) | Successful completion of human factors testing per IEC 62366, IEC 60601-1-6, and applicable FDA guidance "Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices." |

- Alarm Functionality: Proper functioning of alarms to notify users of therapy loss.
- Auto-restart Function: Effective re-initiation of therapy after pause. |
| Software Verification | Successful completion of software verification testing. |
| Substantial Equivalence | Demonstrated through evaluation of indications for use, principle of operation, materials, technology, product specifications, and energy requirements, alongside performance testing, software verification, EMC, and electrical safety testing. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document explicitly states: "No clinical data were provided to support the demonstration of substantial equivalence."
Therefore, there is no sample size for a test set of patients, nor is there any provenance information such as country of origin or retrospective/prospective nature, as no human clinical studies were performed. The testing conducted was entirely non-clinical.
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. Since no clinical data was provided and no human test set was used, there were no experts establishing ground truth for a clinical test set. The validation was based on engineering and performance criteria against standards.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable, as no clinical test set requiring adjudication was used.
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. The RENASYS EDGE device is a physical medical device (NPWT pump), not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant to its evaluation.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is not an algorithm-only device. The evaluation focused on the physical device's performance characteristics.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests would have been the engineering specifications and established performance parameters defined by the manufacturer and relevant international medical device standards (e.g., specific negative pressure range, exudate removal rates, alarm trigger conditions, electrical safety limits, EMC limits). Compliance with these predefined technical criteria constituted the "ground truth."
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This is a medical device, not an AI model that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable, as there was no training set for an AI model.

Therefore, much of the requested information cannot be extracted from this document.
Here's a summary of what can be extracted and what is explicitly missing:
1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- Acceptance Criteria: Not explicitly stated as a table with numerical thresholds. The testing described focuses on demonstrating that performance is not negatively impacted by the larger size or minor changes in the soft port compared to the predicate device.
- Reported Device Performance:
- Wound model tests demonstrated performance when used with RENASYS GO and RENASYS TOUCH NPWT pumps at various pressures, minimum/maximum leak rates, and in combination with cleared RENASYS consumables.
- Wound model testing demonstrated no change in performance between large and extra-large wound sizes.
- Wound model tests demonstrated that RENASYS GO and RENASYS TOUCH NPWT leak and blockage alarms are not impacted.
- Physical testing on XL Foam: Tensile strength, elongation at break, loss on drying data were collected but specific results or acceptance criteria are not provided.
- Physical testing on XL Transparent Film Dressing: Moisture Vapor permeability, Waterproofness, Adhesion to Steel, Tensile strength, Weight of Adhesive (g/m2), Weight of Base Film (g/m2), Extensibility, Permanent Set data were collected but specific results or acceptance criteria are not provided.
- Biocompatibility requirements were met for Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Irritation, Material mediated pyrogenicity, Systemic toxicity (acute, sub-acute and sub-chronic), and Implantation, based on ISO 10993 and FDA Blue Book Memorandum #G95-1.
- Bacterial endotoxin contamination met requirements of ANSI/AAMI ST72:2019.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified. The document mentions "wound model tests" and "physical testing" but does not quantify the number of tests performed or the sample sizes involved for each test type.
- Data Provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective): Not specified. These appear to be laboratory-based non-clinical tests, likely conducted at the manufacturer's facility or a contracted lab. The document does not indicate if any clinical data (prospective or retrospective) was used.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- Not applicable / Not specified. The tests described are non-clinical, involving physical and performance characteristics of the dressing kit and film. There is no mention of expert-established ground truth for a diagnostic or interpretative task.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable / Not specified. As the studies are non-clinical hardware performance tests, adjudication by human experts as described (e.g., for image interpretation) is not relevant.
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. This device is a wound dressing kit and film, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool. Therefore, an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is not applicable.

The provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria for a device's performance, nor does it detail a study designed to prove the device meets specific performance criteria.
The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter and an accompanying 510(k) summary for the PICO 7 and PICO 14 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Systems. The primary purpose of this submission is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device (K202157) for an expanded Indication for Use: the use of PICO in combination with Graduated Compression Therapy in the management of Venous Leg Ulcers.
Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria, specifically concerning the performance of the device itself (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity for an AI/algorithm-based device), cannot be extracted from this document.
The document does include:
- Clinical information (Page 6-7): References a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) by Kirsner et al. (2019) and a Cochrane Review by O'Meara et al. (2012) to demonstrate the safety of PICO when used with compression therapy for Venous Leg Ulcers, especially regarding adverse events (AEs). This is a safety comparison, not a performance study against acceptance criteria.
- Study Design: Randomized, multi-centre, open-label, controlled trial.
- Sample Size: 164 patients for safety analysis. 101 subjects with venous leg ulcers (VLU) and 60 subjects with diabetic foot ulcers were in the ITT population (n=161 total). 80 received PICO treatment, of which 51 (63.8%) had a VLU.
- Data Provenance: Not specified, but likely multi-center, implying various locations. Retrospective or prospective is not explicitly stated, but RCTs are typically prospective.
- Ground Truth: The study evaluated adverse events and their frequency, comparing them to historical controls. The "ground truth" here is the occurrence and classification of adverse events by clinical observation as per the study protocol.
- Acceptance Criteria (Safety): The conclusion drawn is that "PICO used in conjunction with compression therapy does not generate any increased frequency in the number or severity of AEs in patients compared to compression therapy alone." This acts as a comparative safety criterion rather than a performance metric.
- Reported Device Performance (Safety): Percentage of subjects reporting a device-related AE was 13.7% for PICO + 4-Layer Bandage (4LB) group, compared to 31.9% for historical 4LB control.
- Experts, Adjudication, MRMC studies, Standalone Performance, Training Set: These are not relevant to the safety study presented in the document, which focuses on device-related adverse events in patients, not on an algorithmic or AI performance.

- Risk analysis: Updating the risk assessment based on the above.
Based on the provided text, here's what can be extracted and what information is not available:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not present a table of acceptance criteria in the traditional sense of a clinical trial (e.g., Sensitivity X%, Specificity Y%). Instead, the "acceptance" for this 510(k) is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate device for various technical and clinical characteristics. The "performance" is primarily demonstrated by showing that the characteristics are identical or that any changes do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

Comprehensive review of over 60,000 records from MAUDE database and company complaint data confirmed literature review outcome (no reported deaths/serious harms related to magnetic interference from PICO devices). | Assessed (Supported changes) |
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Test Set (for the current K202157 submission):
- Magnetic Field Testing: This was bench testing, not involving human subjects. The sample size for devices tested is not specified, but it implies a measurement on the PICO Family pumps.
- Post Market and Risk Analysis: Reviewed over 60,000 records from the MAUDE database (USA, retrospective) and Smith +Nephew PICO devices complaint data (provenance not specified, but likely global, retrospective).
- Provenance: MAUDE data is from the United States. The literature review is not geographically specified but typically covers international publications. Smith +Nephew complaint data is likely global. All are retrospective analyses.
- The document states that clinical performance data was provided in previously cleared 510(k)s. This suggests the initial clinical data was obtained for those initial clearances, not for this specific submission which focuses on minor labelling changes and supporting evidence for those changes through non-clinical 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)
- Not applicable to this 510(k) submission. This is not a study assessing diagnostic or clinical performance against expert ground truth. The "ground truth" for the current changes is based on:
- Bench testing results (magnetic field strength)
- Regulatory requirements (for labeling updates)
- Analysis of real-world adverse event data (MAUDE database, company complaints) and scientific literature review. This analysis would have been performed by internal regulatory/safety/scientific experts, but the specifics of their number or qualifications are not provided as it's not a reader study.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable. This document describes a substantial equivalence claim for a physical medical device, not an AI/imaging algorithm requiring adjudication of interpretations. The analysis of post-market data and literature would involve methods of synthesizing evidence and risk assessment, but not "adjudication" in the context of clinical interpretation.
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 Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, so an MRMC study is not relevant to its clearance.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not software or an algorithm with standalone performance metrics.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- For the magnetic field testing, the "ground truth" is measured physical properties based on calibrated equipment.
- For the post-market surveillance and risk analysis, the "ground truth" is derived from:
- Reported adverse events/complaints (MAUDE database, company data). These are real-world reported events, which serve as evidence of actual outcomes (or lack thereof).
- Published scientific literature on magnetic interference with implantable medical devices. This represents the established scientific understanding and reported cases in medical literature.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This device does not use machine learning where a "training set" would be relevant.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable.

PICO 14 is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device (NPWT) as it may promote would healing via removal of low to moderate levels of exudate and infectious materials.
Appropriate wound types include:
- Chronic
- Acute
- Traumatic
- Subacute and dehisced wounds
- Partial-thickness burns
- Ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure)
- Flaps and grafts
- Closed Surgical incisions
PICO 14 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is suitable for use both in a hospital and homecare setting.
PICO 14 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is a small, lightweight, portable, electro-mechanical pump system connected through a flexible tube to a super-absorbent, gentle adhesive dressing. Secondary fixation strips are also provided to ensure an adequate seal is achieved. The pump, the dressing and fixation strips are supplied sterile and for single use.
The provided text describes the PICO 14 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System and its substantial equivalence to the predicate device, PICO 7. However, the information presented primarily focuses on demonstrating equivalence through bench testing and a clinical study on patient outcomes rather than a traditional setup of acceptance criteria and a study dedicated to proving the device meets those specific criteria in a formal, AI-centric evaluation.
The device itself is a powered suction pump for wound therapy, not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic or treatment device, which explains the absence of some of the requested AI-specific information.
Here's an attempt to extract and present the information as requested, aligning it as closely as possible to the nature of the provided text:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study for PICO 14 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System
The PICO 14 device is an electro-mechanical pump system and does not appear to involve AI/ML. Therefore, typical AI-specific acceptance criteria (like sensitivity, specificity, AUC) and an AI-specific study structure are not applicable to the information provided. Instead, "acceptance criteria" here refers to the demonstrated performance aspects that allow the device to be considered substantially equivalent and safe/effective for its intended use. The "study" refers to the non-clinical bench tests and the clinical evidence presented for the device.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Given that this is a medical device clearance and not an AI/ML product, the "acceptance criteria" are derived from the demonstrated functionalities and safety profiles required for its intended use and comparison to the predicate device.
Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Criterion (Implicit/Explicit) | Reported Device Performance/Evidence |
---|---|---|
Functional Performance | Ability to function effectively for 14 days without failure. | Bench tests successfully completed, representing worst-case scenarios. Wound model tests demonstrated the system can manage wound exudate and deliver Negative Pressure over 14 days. |
Ability to manage wounds up to 4.5 cm deep. | Bench tests successfully completed, representing worst-case scenarios. Wound model tests demonstrated the system can manage wounds up to 4.5 cm deep. | |
Maintain nominal negative pressure of -80mmHg and same pressure profile as predicate. | The PICO 14 system delivers the same nominal negative pressure of -80mmHg and the same pressure profile as the PICO 7 System. This was confirmed as the NPWT delivery profile is unchanged. | |
Software changes do not impact the function of NPWT delivery. | Only minor convenience updates to software for maximum pump down times and 14-day use. No changes to the function of NPWT delivery. | |
Safety and Biocompatibility | Biocompatibility of materials. | PICO 14 uses the same dressings and materials as the predicate PICO Single Use NPWT System; materials are identical, thus no new biocompatibility data required. Evaluated according to BS EN ISO 10993 and FDA guidance. |
Electrical safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). | PICO 14 has the same electrical characteristics as the predicate system (K180698). Software updates do not impact electrical safety. | |
Acceptable adverse event rate. | In a clinical study, the adverse event rate in PICO groups (depth 2cm: 2.5%) was lower than the non-PICO group (6.6%). No PICO device-related adverse events in the > 2cm group. | |
Human Factors/Usability | No new user tasks or impact on critical tasks. | The minor changes are not considered to change the safety profile, raise new safety/efficacy questions, reflect new user tasks, or impact critical tasks. User interface remains similar with minor changes to appearance/packaging. |
Duration of Use | Extended use time from 7 days to 14 days. | Bench tests demonstrated 14-day functionality. Clinical study data encompassed a longer observation period, and the device was able to manage exudate and pressure over 14 days. An additional set of batteries is provided to support the extended use. |
2. Sample Size and Data Provenance for the Test Set (Clinical Evidence)
- Sample Size for Clinical Evidence:
- Total patients followed: 3,159
- Patients using PICO device: 917
- PICO patients with wound depths > 2 cm: 409 (comprising 233 DFUs, 18 PUs, 147 dehisced surgical wounds, and 11 VLUs).
- Patients discontinuing PICO: 32 out of 917 (2.8%).
- Data Provenance: Retrospective, from two community care access centers.
- Country of Origin: Not explicitly stated but "community care access centers" suggests a real-world setting. Assuming within the country where the company operates or where the study was managed, which might be the UK (Smith & Nephew Medical Limited is in Hull, UK) or another location.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth for the Test Set
The clinical evidence provided appears to be an observational study of patient outcomes rather than a ground truth establishment by experts for a specific test set in the context of an AI device.
- Number of Experts: Not specified. The study involved patient care in community care access centers, suggesting healthcare professionals (e.g., nurses, doctors) were involved in patient admission, care, and data recording including wound depth and healing.
- Qualifications of Experts: Not specified, but implied to be healthcare professionals involved in wound care. Clinicians decided if exudate rate increased beyond indicated levels.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. The clinical study was an observational study of patient outcomes, not an evaluation where expert adjudication of individual cases was performed to establish a definitive ground truth for device performance.
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 physical therapy system, not an imaging or diagnostic AI tool that would typically involve human readers interpreting cases with and without AI assistance. The clinical evidence compared patient outcomes with PICO vs. non-PICO treatment.
6. If a Standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Yes, in a sense, the functionality of the device itself (the PICO 14 system delivering negative pressure) was evaluated in "standalone" bench tests, demonstrating its mechanical and software performance over 14 days and for deep wounds. This is not "algorithm only" in the AI sense, but rather the device's inherent function.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (Clinical Evidence)
The "ground truth" for the clinical evidence was based on patient outcomes data (time to healing, number and duration of dressing changes, and adverse events) and clinically observed wound parameters (wound depth, exudate levels, and clinicians' decisions).
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. The PICO 14 is an electro-mechanical device. There is no mention of an AI/ML algorithm that requires a "training set" in the context of machine learning. The "training" for the device's development would be engineering and design iterations.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
Not applicable, as there is no AI/ML component or "training set" described for this medical device in the provided text.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and supporting study for the RENASYS TOUCH and RENASYS Y-Connector, based on the provided FDA 510(k) summary:
This device is not an AI/ML device. The provided document does not describe the acceptance criteria and study proving an AI/ML device meets them. The document is for a Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) device, the RENASYS TOUCH, and its accessory, the RENASYS Y-Connector. It describes non-clinical performance testing rather than an AI/ML study.
Therefore, many sections of your requested output, particularly those related to AI/ML specific criteria (like sample size for test set, data provenance, ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, standalone performance), cannot be answered from the provided text.
However, I can extract information related to the device's performance testing and general regulatory details.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document doesn't explicitly state quantitative acceptance criteria in a formal table format, nor does it provide specific numerical performance results. Instead, it summarises the types of performance testing conducted to verify the device meets design specifications and demonstrates substantial equivalence to the predicate. The "reported device performance" is generally stated as having "successfully completed" the tests.
Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Test Types) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Test Set Sample Size: The document states that performance testing was "performed in triplicate" for the RENASYS TOUCH device (implying 3 devices were tested) and that this was done for "simulated wound model testing." It doesn't specify how many simulated wound models or test scenarios were run for each triplicate.
- Data Provenance: The testing was non-clinical performance testing conducted by the manufacturer, Smith & Nephew Medical Limited. The country of origin for the data generation would likely be the UK (where Smith & Nephew Medical Limited is located) or another internal testing facility. The data is prospective as it was generated specifically for this 510(k) submission.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This is not applicable as the study involved non-clinical performance testing using simulated wound models and engineering measurements, not expert-adjudicated clinical data or ground truth from human experts.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable, as there was no human adjudication of results in this non-clinical performance testing.
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 a medical device (NPWT pump) and not an AI/ML diagnostic tool. No MRMC study was conducted.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML algorithm. The device's "standalone" performance refers to its ability to perform its intended function of negative pressure wound therapy, which was assessed through the non-clinical performance testing described.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for this device's performance testing consists of:
- Engineering specifications and design requirements: The device's ability to maintain specific pressure ranges, battery life, and proper function of its components (e.g., SIM card, software GUI).
- Predicate device performance: The new device was tested to verify it performs comparably to its legally marketed predicate device (K153209 RENASYS TOUCH System).
- Relevant standards: Compliance with standards like IEC 60601-1-11 for home healthcare environments.
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. As there is no "training set," there is no ground truth to establish for one.

Wound Model Testing (No NPWT) | Dressings must manage fluid at a flow rate modeling moderate and low exuding wounds (0.5 g/cm²/24hrs and 0.3g/cm²/24hrs) without negative pressure. | All dressings in vertical position managed fluid at 0.5 g/cm²/24hrs and 0.3g/cm²/24hrs with no NPWT. Concluded that the dressings can handle fluid without the presence of negative pressure. |
Functionality Testing (Simultaneous Wounds) | Pump pressure limits between -100 to -60mmHg, cycle of ≥10mmHg, time to reach target negative pressure ( |
