The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA regarding a medical device called the MiniSpacer Dual Spray MDI Adapter. This document is a regulatory submission for a device, which typically describes an engineering verification and validation study rather than a clinical study for AI software.
Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and performance against those criteria, especially details such as sample size for test sets, data provenance, expert ground truth adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, and training set information (which are all highly relevant to AI/ML device evaluations), is not present in this document. The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on design, materials, intended use, and general performance, rather than AI-specific metrics.
However, I can extract the following relevant information based on the request, reinterpreting some categories in the context of a non-AI medical device submission:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance
- Product: MiniSpacer® 1024, 1025, 1543 and 1024A, 1025A, 1543A Dual Spray MDI Adapter
- Study Type: This document describes a premarket notification (510(k)) to establish substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not a clinical trial or AI performance study. The "study" here refers to the engineering verification and biocompatibility assessment for the physical device.

Additional Requested Information (as applicable to this document):
-
Sample sizes used for the test set and data provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: Not specified in the document. The testing described appears to be bench testing for material and functional equivalence.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but the toxicological assessment and comparisons against predicate devices would be based on internal testing and regulatory standards. It's a regulatory submission, not a clinical trial, so "country of origin" of data or "retrospective/prospective" does not apply in the typical sense for patient data.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and their qualifications:
- Not applicable in the context of this device. Ground truth is established through engineering specifications, material standards, and regulatory requirements (e.g., biocompatibility testing interpreted by toxicologists) rather than expert consensus on medical images or patient outcomes.
-
Adjudication method for the test set:
- Not applicable. This is not a study requiring adjudication of expert interpretations. Compliance is determined by engineering testing and regulatory assessment.
-
If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, and its effect size:
- No, an MRMC study was not done. This device is a physical medical component (an actuator for MDI medication), not an AI diagnostic or treatment planning system that would involve human readers interpreting data.
-
If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. This device does not involve an algorithm or AI component.
-
The type of ground truth used:
- For material and functional performance, the "ground truth" is defined by established engineering specifications, performance standards, mechanical testing results, and toxicological assessment standards. For regulatory approval, the ultimate "ground truth" is established by demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices through comparative analysis and testing.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. This device does not involve machine learning or a training set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI/ML algorithm.

The LiteAire is intended to be used by adults, adolescents and children ages 5 and up who are able to use a holding chamber without the aid of a mask and who are under the care or treatment of a physician or licensed healtheare professional.
The LiteAire® BASIC Dual Valved, Collapsible MDI Holding Chamber (also referred to as the LiteAire® BASIC) and the modified LiteAire® Dual Valved, Collapsible MDI Holding Chamber (also referred to as the modified LiteAire®), are intended for use in the inhalation of medications delivered via a pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI). The subject devices feature a universal port designed for compatibility with most MDI medications. The subject devices are intended for use by a single patient and, when properly cared for, are reusable for up to one week. The devices consist of a collapsible paperboard housing and two one-way valves to control the direction of air flow when the patient inhales and exhales through the devices are popped-up by the user prior to use by pressing against the sides of the devices, can be collapsed flat between uses, and are anti-static. The intended environments of use include the home, hospitals and clinics. Note that the only differences between the modified LiteAire® and LiteAire® BASIC configurations is the removal of the window.
The provided text describes modifications to an existing medical device, the LiteAire Dual-Valved, Collapsible MDI Holding Chamber, and presents testing to demonstrate its substantial equivalence to the predicate device. It does not describe an AI/ML powered device, therefore the response below is based on the available information and identifies when specific AI/ML related questions are not applicable.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The core acceptance criterion for the modified devices (LiteAire BASIC and Modified LiteAire) is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device (LiteAire K160109) in terms of aerosol characterization (particle size distributions) and other performance aspects.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size for Aerosol Characterization: N=9 for each device (Predicate LiteAire, LiteAire BASIC, Modified LiteAire) for each MDI medication and flow rate tested (adult and pediatric). This means 9 units of each device type were tested for each specific drug and inhalation profile combination.
- Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective. Given that it's a bench performance test for a medical device's physical properties, the concept of "retrospective or prospective" as applied to clinical studies is not directly applicable. These are laboratory-based, controlled experiments.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This section is Not Applicable as the device is a medical device (MDI Holding Chamber), not an Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) powered device that relies on expert interpretation for ground truth establishment. The performance is measured through objective physical and chemical tests (e.g., aerosol particle size, emitted dose).
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This section is Not Applicable as adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are typically used in clinical studies or for establishing ground truth in AI/ML performance evaluations involving human readers. The tests performed here are objective bench tests.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done
This section is Not Applicable as the device is a medical device (MDI Holding Chamber), not an AI/ML powered device, and no human-in-the-loop performance or reader studies were conducted or described.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This section is Not Applicable as the device is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or AI/ML product.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for the device's performance is established through objective physical and chemical measurements obtained from standardized laboratory tests, specifically:
- Aerosol Characterization: Particle size distributions (MMAD, GSD), Total Emitted Dose, and Fine Particle Dose measured using an Andersen Cascade Impactor (ACI) as per FDA guidance.
- Biocompatibility: Conformance to ISO 10993-1, confirmed by material composition and manufacturing process identical to a previously cleared device.
- Bench Performance: Visual inspection, first article inspection, accelerated aging, and pop/collapse functionality.
The performance values obtained from the predicate device served as the reference for establishing substantial equivalence.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This section is Not Applicable as the device is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML powered device that requires a "training set."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
This section is Not Applicable for the reasons stated above.
