    Intended Use

    The 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, BD PosiFlush™ SF Syringes are intended to be used only for the flushing of indwelling vascular access devices.

    Device Description

    The 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, BD PosiFlush" SF Syringe is a three-piece, sterile, single use syringe with a 6% (luer) connector prefilled with 0.9% sodium chloride injection, USP, and sealed with a tip cap. The 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, BD PosiFlush™ SF Syringe is sterilized via moist heat and provided externally sterile for use on a sterile field.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, BD PosiFlush™ SF Syringe:

    This document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device that claims substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than a study proving the device meets novel acceptance criteria through a comparison against a primary ground truth. It focuses on demonstrating that the subject device (with new packaging) performs identically to the predicate device, which has already been deemed safe and effective.

    Therefore, many of the typical questions asked for an AI/diagnostic study (like sample size for test set, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set details) are not applicable to this type of submission. This is a submission for a modification to an existing device (packaging change), where the primary goal is to show that the modified device maintains the performance characteristics of the original device.


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The acceptance criteria are implicitly defined by the performance of the predicate device (K121050). The reported device performance for the subject device is consistently "Identical to predicate" or "Equivalent to predicate".

    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 in the document. The document states that "Performance Testing conducted to support substantial equivalence." It details the types of tests performed (Functional, Chemical, Biocompatibility) but does not specify the sample sizes for these tests or the data provenance. These tests would typically be laboratory-based rather than involving 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 is not applicable as this is not a study requiring expert interpretation of results for ground truth establishment. The performance criteria are objective measurements as per recognized standards (e.g., USP, ISO).


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

    This is not applicable. The tests performed are objective, quantitative or qualitative measurements against established specifications/standards, not subjective assessments requiring adjudication.


    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

    This is not applicable. This device is a pre-filled saline syringe, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.


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

    This is not applicable. This device is a manual medical device, not an algorithm.


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

    The "ground truth" or acceptance criteria for this medical device are based on:

    • Established standards and regulations: e.g., USP (United States Pharmacopeia) for chemical properties and bacterial endotoxin, ISO (International Organization for Standardization) for biocompatibility and package integrity.
    • Performance of the predicate device: The subject device is designed to perform "Identical to predicate" or "Equivalent to predicate" in all tested characteristics. The predicate device's performance already demonstrates its safety and effectiveness.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    This is not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI/machine learning algorithm that requires a training set.


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

    This is not applicable. As above, no training set is relevant for this type of device.
