The Ombra* Table Top Compressor is a medical device designed to provide compressed air for use with jet nebulizers. The provided text details the device's characteristics and its comparison to predicate devices, but it does not describe a study involving acceptance criteria in the traditional sense of clinical performance or algorithm evaluation.
Instead, the submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed devices (predicates) through non-clinical testing and comparison of technological characteristics. This is a common pathway for medical devices seeking 510(k) clearance, where direct clinical trials or extensive performance studies with acceptance criteria based on patient outcomes are often not required if the new device is sufficiently similar to a predicate.
Therefore, many of the requested elements for describing an acceptance criteria study (like sample size for test sets, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training sets) are not applicable in this context.
Here's the information that can be extracted from the provided text, framed within the substantial equivalence approach:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
For a 510(k) submission seeking substantial equivalence, the "acceptance criteria" are typically defined by demonstrating that the new device's parameters are comparable to or within acceptable limits relative to the predicate devices, and that it complies with relevant safety and performance standards.
Characteristic | Acceptance Criteria (based on predicate ranges/standards) | Ombra* Table Top Compressor Reported Performance |
---|---|---|
Power | AC 120V, 60Hz powered (matching predicates) | AC 120V, 60Hz powered |
Principle of operation | Delivers compressed air to a jet/pneumatic nebulizer (matching predicates) | Delivers compressed air to a jet or pneumatic nebulizer. |
Mechanism of action | Motor-driven (matching predicates) | Motor-driven |
Patient Contact | No patient-contacting components (matching predicates) | No patient-contacting components |

Compliance: Electrical Safety | Technical compliance with IEC EN 60601-1:2005 + Corr. 1 (2006) + Corr. 2 (2007) | Technically compliant |
The "study" that proves the device meets these criteria is the "Non-Clinical Test Summary."
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Sample size: Not specified as a "sample size" in the context of patient data. The testing involved one unit of the Ombra* Table Top Compressor to characterize its operating parameters.
- Data provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical data. The tests were conducted internally to characterize the device's physical and electrical properties.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not applicable. Ground truth in this context refers to objective measurements of the device's physical and electrical performance, not expert clinical interpretation.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
- Not applicable. There was no human interpretation or adjudication involved in the objective measurements.
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 compressor, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. This device is a standalone hardware component. Its performance is measured directly, not via an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used:
- Objective physical and electrical measurements of the device's operating parameters (e.g., pressure, flow rate, current, sound level, temperature ranges) and compliance with recognized safety and EMC standards. Comparisons were made against the specifications of predicate devices.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not an AI/machine learning device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable. As there is no training set, this question is irrelevant.

The Aerobika* Oscillating Positive Expiratory Pressure device is intended for use as a Positive Expiratory Pressure (PEP) device. The Aerobika* Oscillating PEP device may also be used simultaneously with nebulized aerosol drug delivery. The device is intended to be used by patients capable of generating an exhalation flow of 10 lpm for 3 – 4 seconds.
The Aerobika* Oscillating Positive Expiratory Pressure (PEP) device is indicated as a single patient use, hand held secretion clearance and lung expansion device that creates vibrating positive expiratory pressure when a patient exhales through the device. The Aerobika* device may be used simultaneously with aerosol drug delivery from a nebulizer.
The Aerobika* Oscillating Positive Expiratory Pressure (PEP) Device was found substantially equivalent to a predicate device (Acapella, K002768) based on mechanical testing and biocompatibility.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Acceptance Criteria (Performance Measure) | Reported Device Performance (Aerobika* PEP Device) |
---|---|
Mechanical Operating Parameters | |
Oscillation Frequency | Ranges of data for oscillation frequency are similar to the predicate device, showing clear overlap. The mean frequency value is within 15% of the predicate device. The slightly lower minimum frequency observed for Aerobika* is considered clinically insignificant, citing therapeutic effectiveness of other devices down to 3Hz and 6Hz, and previous predicate evaluations showing 8.0 Hz. |
Oscillation Amplitude | Ranges of data for oscillation amplitude are similar to the predicate device, showing clear overlap. The mean amplitude value is within 15% of the predicate device. |
Biocompatibility | |
Cytotoxicity | Patient-contacting components meet the requirements of ISO 10993-5. |
Sensitization | Patient-contacting components meet the requirements of ISO 10993-10. |
Irritation/Intracutaneous Reactivity | Patient-contacting components meet the requirements of ISO 10993-10. |
Aerosol Drug Delivery (Cascade Impactor) | Performance comparable to the Acapella device when used with a nebulizer and three different drugs. No new safety or efficacy issues raised. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for mechanical testing. The submission mentions "ranges of data" and "mean Frequency and Amplitude values," implying multiple measurements were taken and statistically compared. For cascade impactor testing, three different drugs were used with the nebulizer.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but assumed to be from laboratory testing conducted by Trudell Medical International. This is a pre-market submission, so the data would be prospective in the context of the device's clearance, but retrospective for the performed tests themselves (i.e., tests were concluded before submission). Country of origin is Canada (manufacturer).
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
- Not applicable. This submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence through mechanical and biocompatibility testing, not on diagnostic accuracy requiring expert interpretation of results. The "ground truth" here is the measured physical properties and biological reactions against established standards and the predicate device's performance.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not applicable. As the tests are objective mechanical and biological evaluations, there is no human adjudication of results in the traditional sense. The comparison is made against quantitative measurements from the predicate device and established ISO standards.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
- No. This was not a clinical performance study involving human readers.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
- Yes, in essence. The mechanical and biocompatibility testing can be considered standalone performance evaluations of the device's characteristics against a predicate device and predetermined standards, without human interaction influencing the measurement results themselves. The "algorithm" here is the device's inherent mechanical function.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Objective measurements against established standards and predicate device performance.
- For mechanical parameters (frequency, amplitude): The ground truth was the measured performance of the predicate device (Acapella) and the statistical comparison of the Aerobika* device's performance to it. Clinical insignificance was supported by literature (Volsko et al, 2003; Okeson and McGowen, 2007) indicating acceptable oscillation ranges for similar devices.
- For biocompatibility: The ground truth was compliance with ISO 10993-1, 10993-5, and 10993-10 standards.
- For aerosol drug delivery: The ground truth was the comparative performance against the predicate device in cascade impactor testing.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not applicable. This device is a mechanical medical device, not an AI/machine learning model that typically requires a training set. The "training" for such a device would be its engineering design and manufacturing process.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- Not applicable. As stated above, this is not an AI/ML device.

Specific numerical comparisons for the predicate device were not provided in the summary.*
2. Sample Size and Data Provenance for the Test Set
- Sample Size Used for the Test Set: Not explicitly stated as a numerical sample size (e.g., N=X devices). The evaluation involved testing with "3 commonly prescribed drugs" using the cascade impactor method and simulating normal device usage in a ventilator circuit with a "simulated adult mechanically ventilated patient." The results were based on "statistical analysis (95% confidence interval) of the observed data collected." This implies multiple measurements were taken for each drug and test condition to achieve statistical confidence.
- Data Provenance: The study was a non-clinical, laboratory-based evaluation conducted by Trudell Medical International. The country of origin for the data is not specified beyond the manufacturer being in London, Ontario, CANADA. The data is prospective, generated specifically for this 510(k) submission.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. This was a non-clinical performance study without human-based adjudication.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The submission explicitly states: "Not applicable, the determination of substantial equivalence is not based on Clinical Performance Data."
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study
Yes, a standalone study was performed. The non-clinical tests (aerosol characterization, biocompatibility, and mechanical safety testing) evaluated the device's performance independently without human-in-the-loop interaction in a clinical setting. The "device's performance" was directly measured and compared to the predicate.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for the non-clinical tests was established through objective, laboratory-based measurements and experimental protocols.
- For aerosol characterization: Measurements of Total Delivered Dose, Particle Fraction at various sizes, MMAD (Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter), and GSD (Geometric Standard Deviation) obtained through cascade impactor methodology and collection at the exit of an ETT in a simulated patient model.
- For biocompatibility: Adherence to ISO 10993-1 standards.
- For mechanical safety: Specific engineering tests (simulated use, pressure, environmental limits, drop, leakage, strain relief fatigue/tensile testing).
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This is a medical device 510(k) submission for a nebulizer, not an AI/ML-based device that requires a training set.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable. As noted above, this is not an AI/ML-based device and does not involve a training set for an algorithm.

The device is intended for use with patients on mechanical ventilation via resuscitation bag or ventilator circuit. The intended environments for use include the home, hospitals and clinics.
The AeroChamber mini Ventilation Chamber is a single patient, disposable device, intended to be used for the administration of metered dose inhaler medication prescribed by a physician or health care professional.
Here's the analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the AeroChamber Mini Ventilation Chamber:
Analysis of Acceptance Criteria and Study for AeroChamber Mini Ventilation Chamber
The provided FDA 510(k) summary (K090065) for the AeroChamber Mini Ventilation Chamber primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It certifies that the device can be legally marketed based on its comparison to existing devices.
However, this document does not contain information about specific acceptance criteria or an analytical study proving the device meets those criteria, as one would typically find for a new, novel AI/ML-driven medical device requiring performance validation.
The document states: "We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification... and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices..." This heavily implies that the device's acceptable performance is based on its similarity to already approved devices, rather than a de novo clinical or analytical study with defined performance metrics and acceptance thresholds.
Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and performance studies for an AI/ML device cannot be extracted from this document.
Summary Table (Based on available information):
Aspect | Acceptance Criteria (Not explicitly stated for performance) | Reported Device Performance (Implied) |
---|---|---|
Primary Goal of Submission | Substantial Equivalence to a predicate device | Demonstrated substantial equivalence. Indications for Use (administered metered dose inhaler medication to patients on mechanical ventilation via resuscitation bag or ventilator circuit). |
Key Performance Indicator | (Not provided in this document) | (Not provided in this document) |
Threshold for Acceptance | (Not provided in this document) | (Not provided in this document) |
Detailed Breakdown (Responding to your specific questions):
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- As noted above, explicit quantitative acceptance criteria for device performance (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, or other measurable outcomes) are not present in this 510(k) letter. The "acceptance" is based on the FDA's determination of substantial equivalence to a predicate device. The reported performance is implicitly that it functions similarly to the predicate for its intended use.
-
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. The document does not describe a test set or a study conducted to evaluate the device's performance against defined metrics. The decision is based on a comparison to a predicate device, which would involve reviewing documentation and design specifications, not experimental data collection with a "test set" in the context of an AI/ML device.
-
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. No ground truth establishment is described for this type of submission.
-
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not applicable / Not provided. No test set or adjudication method is described.
-
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 mechanical ventilation chamber, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or therapeutic tool. Therefore, an MRMC study or assessment of human reader improvement with AI assistance is not relevant.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. This is a hardware device (ventilation chamber), not an algorithm.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
- Not applicable / Not provided. No ground truth is described.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable / Not provided. This is a physical medical device, not an AI algorithm requiring a training set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable / Not provided. No training set or ground truth establishment is described.
In conclusion, the provided FDA letter confirms the substantial equivalence of the AeroChamber Mini Ventilation Chamber to a predicate device, enabling its market authorization. It is not a document detailing the performance validation of a novel device, particularly an AI/ML-driven one, against specific acceptance criteria through a dedicated study.

The AeroEclipse® II Breath Actuated Nebulizer is intended to be used by patients who are under the care or treatment of a licensed health care provider or physician. The device is intended to be used by these patients to administer aerosolized medication prescribed by a physician or health care professional. The intended environments for use include the home, hospitals and clinics.
AeroEclipse® II Breath Actuated Nebulizer
The provided text is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for the AeroEclipse® II Breath Actuated Nebulizer. It indicates that the device has been found substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. However, this document does not contain specific details about acceptance criteria, performance studies, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or expert qualifications as typically found in a study report.
The 510(k) clearance process primarily evaluates substantial equivalence based on the device's technological characteristics and intended use compared to a predicate device. It doesn't typically require a separate clinical study with detailed performance metrics and statistical analyses as would be needed for a PMA or de novo submission.
Therefore,Based on the provided text, I cannot complete the table or answer most of the questions as the information is not present within this FDA clearance letter. The letter confirms clearance but does not detail the specific studies, acceptance criteria, or performance data used to demonstrate substantial equivalence internally.
Here's an explanation of what can be inferred or what is missing:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- Cannot be provided. The document does not specify any acceptance criteria or reported device performance metrics (e.g., nebulization rate, particle size distribution, drug delivery efficiency) from a performance study. The 510(k) is a regulatory clearance, not a performance report.
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Cannot be provided. The document does not mention any specific test set sample sizes or data provenance.
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)
- Cannot be provided. This information is not relevant to a 510(k) clearance letter for a nebulizer. Ground truth establishment with experts is typically for diagnostic devices, not for a device like a nebulizer.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Cannot be provided. This is not applicable or mentioned in the document.
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
- Cannot be provided. MRMC studies are typically for AI-enabled diagnostic devices. This is a nebulizer and does not involve human readers or AI assistance in a diagnostic capacity.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Cannot be provided. This device is not an AI algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Cannot be provided. Ground truth, in the context of diagnostic performance, is not applicable to this device and is not mentioned. For a nebulizer, performance is evaluated against engineering specifications and standards (e.g., aerosol output, particle size), not against a "ground truth" derived from patient data in the same way a diagnostic device would.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Cannot be provided. This device does not involve a "training set" in the context of machine learning.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Cannot be provided. Not applicable to this device.
