    Intended Use

    Patch-TEA is an Over-The-Counter device to be used by adults only for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, neck, arm, and leg, due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities and suitable for home use.

    Device Description

    The Patch-TEA device is a non-invasive, battery-operated, over-the-counter transcutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator indicated for use in adult patients for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, neck, arm, and leg, due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities and suitable for home use.

    The system includes the following components: Patch-TEA device, charging case, electrode pads, USB charging cable, and Patch-TEA app. The device can be used in clinical environments (i.e., outpatient clinics and hospitals) and/or at home.

    The Patch-TEA device is powered by an internal rechargeable lithium polymer battery and uses a microprocessor to control the working modes, the waveform and strength of the output pulse. The electric pulse generator is based on a current source circuit. The power management module contains a DC-DC boost conversion circuit that provides the required voltage for the electric pulse generator. The Patch-TEA device is able to connect with the Patch-TEA app, which is located on a smartphone. The user interface is available on both the Patch-TEA device and Patch-TEA app. The user can power on/off the device, adjust treatment time and treatment intensity.

    Treatment time is adjustable within the of range 5~240 minutes per treatment session. In addition, there is over-load, over-current and no-load protection as well as an automatic shut-off function. The Bluetooth transceiver module is responsible for communication between the Patch-TEA device and Patch-TEA app located on a smartphone.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) Clearance Letter for Patch-TEA (Model TRI-21) and its accompanying 510(k) Summary do not contain any information about a study involving human subjects or AI performance analysis. The summary focuses entirely on the "technological comparison" of the device's physical and electrical characteristics against predicate devices, and non-clinical testing for safety and compliance with standards.

    Therefore, I cannot fulfill the request to build a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance related to AI or human studies, nor can I provide details on sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or multi-reader multi-case studies, as this information is not present in the provided text.

    The closest information available is related to non-clinical testing and technical conformance to standards, which are summarized below, but these are not in the context of human performance or AI-driven evaluation.

    Regarding the other requested information, the provided text does not contain:

    1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance: No information on a test set involving human subjects is provided.
    2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable, as no human subject test set or ground truth establishment process is described.

    4. 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 device is a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human "readers."
    5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable, as there is no mention of an algorithm or AI component for which standalone performance would be measured.
    6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable, as no human study or clinical ground truth is mentioned.
    7. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as there is no mention of a training set for an AI/algorithm.
    8. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

    In conclusion, the FDA 510(k) clearance letter and its summary for Patch-TEA (Model TRI-21) pertain to a physical medical device (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator) and establish substantial equivalence based on technical specifications, safety testing (non-clinical), and compliance with electrical, mechanical, and biocompatibility standards.
