The Motif Aura Glow breast pump (Model Motif Aura Glow) is a powered breast pump intended to be used by lactating women to express and collect milk from their breasts. It is intended for a single user.
The Motif Aura Glow breast pump (Model Motif Aura Glow) is a powered breast pump intended to be used by lactating women to express and collect milk from their breasts, it is intended for a single user. The Motif Aura Glow breast pump (Model Motif Aura Glow) is powered by a lithium battery, utilizing an embedded control program to manage all device functions. The main components of this pump include: Pump, valve, control board, and milk collector. The user interface allows the user to switch from massage, expression, cluster feeding, and general pumping modes and control the vacuum levels within those modes.
Massage, expression, and general pumping modes consist of 9 vacuum levels. Cluster feeding mode consists of 5 vacuum levels. The Motif Aura Glow breast pump (Model Motif Aura Glow) is capable of providing vacuum levels from 40-160 mmHg with cycling rates from 75-120 cycles per minute in massage mode, vacuum levels from 120-245 mmHg with cycling rates from 30-85 cycles per minute in expression mode, vacuum levels from 40-200 mmHg with cycling rates from 45-120 cycles per minute in cluster feeding mode, and vacuum levels from 60-245 mmHg with cycling rates from 30-120 cycles per minute in general pumping mode. The Motif Aura Glow breast pump (Model Motif Aura Glow) is charged with a 5 V DC adaptor and powered by an internal rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery. The motor unit operates on embedded software. Software updates by end-users are not supported. The subject device is for repeated use by a single user in a home environment. The device is provided not sterile.
The motor unit operates on a rechargeable battery and does not function when charging. The rechargeable battery can be charged from the external USB adapter if the motor unit is not in operation.
The breast pump expresses milk by creating a seal around the nipple using the flange and applying and releasing suction to the nipple. The milk is collected in a milk collection container, which can be used for storage. To prevent milk from flowing into the vacuum system, a backflow protection membrane physically separates the milk-contacting pathway from the vacuum system.
All other components (i.e., motor unit/housing) of the subject device are not in contact with the breast. All milk contacting components are compliant with 21 CFR 174-179.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Test Set Sample Size: The document does not specify the sample sizes for the individual performance, safety, or biocompatibility tests. It only states that "Testing was conducted" and "Performance testing was conducted." For a physical device like a breast pump, "test set" typically refers to the number of units tested. This information is not detailed in the summary letter.
- Data Provenance: The manufacturer is "Shenzhen TPH Technology Co., Ltd." in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. The testing was conducted as part of their 510(k) submission to the US FDA. The document does not specify whether the tests themselves were conducted in China or elsewhere, nor whether they were retrospective or prospective studies (this concept mostly applies to clinical data collection, which is not detailed here for this device type).
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
- Not Applicable (N/A): For a breast pump, there isn't a concept of "ground truth" established by experts in the same way as for a diagnostic AI device (e.g., radiologists interpreting images). The acceptance criteria are based on engineering specifications, safety standards, and functional performance. The "ground truth" is typically defined by the device's design specifications and industry standards, verified through objective measurements and validated test methods.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- N/A: As "ground truth" from human experts is not established for this device type, there is no adjudication method among experts. Performance is measured against predefined objective standards.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done
- No: An MRMC comparative effectiveness study is typically conducted for diagnostic devices (especially AI-powered ones) to assess the impact of the device on human reader performance. This is a physical breast pump, not a diagnostic device, so such a study is not applicable.
6. If a Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only) was done
- Yes, in essence. The performance testing (e.g., vacuum level verification, cycle speed, backflow protection, battery life) are "standalone" tests of the device's inherent functional capabilities against its specifications. The software evaluation was also a standalone assessment of the embedded control program. There isn't an "algorithm-only" performance in the sense of an AI model's output being compared to ground truth, but the physical and software functionalities were tested independently of human interaction for their core performance.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Objective Engineering Specifications and International/National Standards: The "ground truth" for this device's performance acceptance is based on its own design specifications (e.g., stated vacuum ranges and cycle speeds), and adherence to recognized electrical safety (e.g., IEC 60601 series), EMC, and biocompatibility (e.g., ISO 10993-1) standards. For instance, a stated vacuum level of -160 mmHg is verified by direct measurement using calibrated equipment; the "ground truth" is the measurement itself, compared to the specification.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- N/A: This is a physical breast pump with embedded control software, not a machine learning/AI model that requires a "training set" of data in the common sense (e.g., for image classification or prediction). The software is a "fixed function" embedded control program.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
- N/A: As there is no "training set" in the context of machine learning, this question does not apply. The "ground truth" for the device's design and functionality is derived from engineering principles and regulatory requirements for powered breast pumps.

Aura 10 PET/CT
The AURA 10 PET/CT system is a cabinet diagnostic imaging device that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) systems. The AURA 10 PET/CT system images harvested specimens from various anatomical regions in order to provide rapid verfication that the correct tissue has been excised during the surgical procedure. Images can be obtained as CT only, or a combination of both by surgeon's discretion.
The AURA 10 cabinet PET/CT system provides an image of extent and degree of intensity radiopharmaceutical uptake in the specimen by PET and the anatomical information by CT, which will help the surgeon with further patient management.
The AURA 10 PET/CT system is not validated for margin detection.
The AURA 10 PET/CT is a mobile, vertical-bore PET/CT system with a Field of View (FOV) suitable for small pathology specimens. It is intended to be used in both the operating room (OR) as well as the pathology department to image pathology specimens from various anatomical regions in order to provide rapid pathology imaging. The AURA 10 PET/CT is intended to image pathology specimens for a wide range of patient types, sizes, and extent of diseases. It is designed as a mobile cart so that it is easily portable by one person and can be moved to different surgical suites or between departments as needed.
The provided text describes the regulatory clearance for the AURA 10 PET/CT system, which is a cabinet diagnostic imaging device for imaging harvested specimens. However, it explicitly states, "Not applicable. Clinical studies are not necessary to establish the substantial equivalence of this device." This means that the submission does not include information about clinical performance data or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria derived from clinical studies.
The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Vereos PET/CT) and a reference device (Faxitron VisionCT) through non-clinical performance data, primarily bench testing, electrical safety, EMC, and software verification/validation.
Therefore, it is not possible to provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study that proves the device meets those criteria from a clinical performance perspective. The clearance is based on technological characteristics and non-clinical testing demonstrating equivalency to existing cleared devices, not on a new clinical performance study.
Here's an explanation based on the provided text's limitations:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- Acceptance Criteria: No specific clinical acceptance criteria (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy against a clinical ground truth) are provided in the document. The acceptance for this device is based on meeting safety and performance standards through non-clinical testing and demonstrating technological equivalence to predicate devices.
- Reported Device Performance (Non-Clinical):
- Electrical Safety & EMC: "The device passed all tests" for IEC 61010-1, IEC 61010-2-091, IEC 61010-2-101, and IEC 61326-2-6.
- Software Verification & Validation: "Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance... The software for this device was considered as a moderate level of concern." "The AURA 10 PET/CT was tested in accordance with IEC 62304:2006 + A1:2015...".
- Bench Testing:
- Analytical performance testing: "The AURA 10 PET/CT was tested in accordance with NEMA NU 4-2008 - Performance measurements of small animal positron emission tomographs (PETs)." (Specific performance numbers from this test, like spatial resolution or peak NEC rate, are listed in the "Technological characteristics" table, but it's not explicitly stated that these are the "acceptance criteria" for clearance, rather they are characteristics measured against the predicate.)
- Usability testing: "The AURA 10 PET/CT was tested in accordance with IEC 62366-1:2015... Usability testing was conducted and documentation provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance...".
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Since no clinical studies were performed, there is no "test set" in the context of clinical data. The non-clinical tests involved hardware and software evaluations.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not applicable, as no clinical ground truth was established by experts for a clinical test set.
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:
- No MRMC study was done, as explicitly stated, "Clinical studies are not necessary to establish the substantial equivalence of this device." This device is an imaging system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers in the traditional sense of improving reader performance. Its purpose is to provide images for verification.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- The device is a medical imaging system (PET/CT), not an algorithm that produces a diagnostic output on its own. Its "performance" is in image generation and quality, which was evaluated through bench testing.
7. The type of ground truth used:
- For the non-clinical bench testing, the "ground truth" would be the known physical properties and performance characteristics of phantoms and test setups used in accordance with standards like NEMA NU 4-2008.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable, as this documentation does not describe an AI/ML model that would require a "training set" of data for its primary function. It's a hardware imaging system.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable.
In summary: The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and summary for the AURA 10 PET/CT system indicate that its clearance was based on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to existing, legally marketed predicate devices through non-clinical testing (electrical safety, EMC, software V&V, and bench testing against industry standards like NEMA NU 4-2008) and a comparison of technological characteristics. No clinical performance studies, human reader studies, or AI algorithm performance studies were deemed necessary for this clearance.

The Xstrahl Photoelectric Therapy System (RADiant Aura) is a low energy X-Ray system intended for superficial radiotherapy and surface electronic brachytherapy treatment of primary malignant epithelial neoplasms of the skin and keloids.
Here’s an analysis of the provided information regarding its acceptance criteria and the study:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The provided document is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than detailing specific acceptance criteria for performance metrics in a clinical study. The "acceptance criteria" here are generally understood as meeting design requirements, mitigating risks, and conforming to relevant standards, which are evaluated through non-clinical testing.
Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Criteria (Inferred from documentation) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Functionality & Design | Device functionality works as per intended use. | Successfully demonstrated through 26 independent verification tests and 18 independent validation tests. These included tests for: applicator/filter retention during motion, residual motion, power loss response, system stability, radiation leakage, and component/system build. |
Software Performance | Software runs successfully and without changes from predicate. | Software run-through functionality test completed successfully. The software versions (Concerto 2.3, Fisica 1.06, TP2 1.24) used in the predicate device work without changes with RADiant Aura. |
Positioning Accuracy | Ability to position the treatment head for different patient positions (laying/seated) is not affected by design changes. | Testing confirmed that the ability to position the treatment head was not affected by design changes. |
Dose Reproducibility | Dose reproducibility meets standards. | Determined successfully in accordance with BS EN 60601-2-8:2015+A1:2016 clause 201.10.1.2.112 ('Agreement between indicated values and effective values'). |
Output Measurements | Output measurements meet recognized codes of practice. | Independent output measurements completed successfully at National Physics Laboratory UK (NPL) as per Xstrahl Customer Acceptance Test procedure and verified compliance with AAPM (2001) and IPEMB (1996) protocols. |
Safety and Effectiveness | No new issues of safety or effectiveness are raised compared to the predicate device. | The detailed comparison with the predicate device and the successful completion of all verification and validation tests support this. The device conforms to applicable sections of standards (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-8, IEC 60601-1-6, IEC 62366, IEC 62304, ISO 14971). |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not explicitly stated as a "test set" in the context of clinical data. The testing described largely involves non-clinical (engineering and technical) verification and validation. This means the "sample size" would refer to the number of devices or components tested. The document mentions "Twenty Six independent verification tests and 18 independent validation tests were executed on the RADiant Aura systems." This implies that at least one, but likely a limited number (e.g., prototype or production units), of RADiant Aura systems were subjected to these tests.
- Data Provenance: This information refers to the origin of the data. Since the testing is non-clinical, the data provenance is primarily from internal testing conducted by Xstrahl Ltd. and independent testing by the National Physics Laboratory UK (NPL). The context is purely technical performance evaluation, not clinical outcomes from human patients. The data is prospective in the sense that it was generated specifically for this submission to verify the new design. There is no mention of country of origin of clinical data, as no clinical data is presented.
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 document describes non-clinical performance and safety testing, not a clinical study requiring expert-established ground truth for a test set (e.g., image interpretation or disease diagnosis). The "ground truth" here is adherence to engineering specifications, safety standards, and physical laws, verified by technical measurements and evaluations.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This is not applicable as the document describes non-clinical performance and safety testing. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies when multiple human readers evaluate data, and their assessments need to be reconciled to establish a ground truth.
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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is an X-Ray radiation therapy system, not an AI diagnostic or assistance tool. The submission focuses on the safety and performance of the hardware and software for delivering radiation therapy, not on interpreting medical images or assisting human readers in diagnosis.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
This question is not directly applicable in the context of this device. The "algorithm" in this case refers to the embedded software and control systems of the radiation therapy device. The non-clinical testing described (e.g., software run-through functionality test, dose reproducibility) effectively evaluates the "standalone" performance of these systems in meeting their intended technical specifications, without direct human intervention in the treatment delivery process once programmed. However, the device itself is a treatment device, not a diagnostic algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
For the non-clinical testing, the "ground truth" used was based on:
- Engineering specifications and design requirements: The device was tested against its defined operational parameters and expected performance.
- International and national standards: Compliance with standards like BS EN 60601-2-8, IEC 60601-1, etc., served as the ground truth for safety, electrical performance, usability, and software lifecycle.
- Recognized codes of practice: For output measurements, protocols from AAPM (2001) and IPEMB (1996) were used as the benchmark for accurate dose delivery.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
There is no mention of a training set in the document. This is because the device is not an AI/ML-based diagnostic or predictive algorithm that typically requires large datasets for training. The software components mentioned (Concerto, Fisica, TP2) appear to be control software and firmware for the device's operation, not machine learning models.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
This is not applicable as there is no training set for an AI/ML model mentioned in the context of this device.

Time-to-Graft (TTG) | (e.g., Maximum allowed processing time) | "Time from the start of the washing step to the end of the transfer/extraction step was measured" |
Device Usability | (e.g., Meets predefined usability objectives, no critical errors) | "Usability of the device was evaluated" |
Canister implosion | (e.g., Withstands specified vacuum pressure without implosion) | "A123 units were tested for medical vacuum suction canister implosion test requirements" |
Tubing collapse | (e.g., Withstands specified vacuum pressure without collapse) | "A123 units were tested for medical vacuum suction canister tubing collapse test requirements" |
System leak | (e.g., Meets leakage specifications) | "A123 units were tested for vacuum seal to determine leakage" |
Tubing tensile strength (pull-off force) | (e.g., Withstands specified pull-off force) | "A123 units were tested to measure the tensile strength (pull-off force)" |
Biocompatibility | (e.g., No cytotoxic, irritation, or sensitization effects) | "The test articles were found to be biocompatible" |
Sterility | (e.g., Sterile per ISO 11137) | "Both met the sterility requirements per ISO 11137" |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
The document mentions "A123 units were tested" for various bench tests, but it does not specify the sample size (number of units) used for each test.
The data provenance is not explicitly stated in terms of country of origin. The study appears to be retrospective in the sense that it's bench testing on manufactured units, rather than a prospective clinical trial.
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 this type of submission. The ground truth for bench testing of a lipoplasty system involves quantifiable physical measurements and material properties, rather than expert interpretation of medical images or conditions.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
This is not applicable. Adjudication methods are typically used in studies involving subjective human interpretation (e.g., reading medical images) to resolve discrepancies. For bench testing, the results are typically 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:
This is not applicable. This submission is for a medical device used for tissue processing, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool that supports human readers/interpreters.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
This is not applicable. The device is a physical system, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
The "ground truth" for this device's performance evaluation is based on objective, quantitative measurements obtained through standardized bench testing methods (e.g., centrifugation for fat volume, time measurement for TTG, force measurement for tensile strength, and established ISO standards for sterility, biocompatibility, implosion, collapse, and leak tests).
8. The sample size for the training set:
This is not applicable. The device is a physical product and not an AI algorithm that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
This is not applicable. As stated above, the device is not an AI algorithm.

Aura DR 43C-AG flat panel detector
The AURA DR 43C-AG detector is indicated for digital imaging solution designed for general radiographic system for human anatomy. It is intended to replace film or screen based radiographic system in all general-purpose diagnostic procedures. It is not to be used for mammography.
AURA DR 43C-AG is a digital X-ray flat panel detector which has 43cm x 43cm imaging area and communicates with a wired communication feature, Giga-bit Ethernet communication method through connecting a tether cable. The device intercepts x-ray photons and the scintillator (Gadox:Tb) and emits visible spectrum photons that illuminate an array of photo (a-SI) detector that creates electrical signals. After the electrical signals are generated, it is converted to digital values, and the images will be displayed on the monitor. This device should be integrated with an operating PC and an X-Ray generator. It can digitalize x-ray images and transfer them for radiography diagnostics. Advanced digital image processing allows considerably efficient diagnosis, all kinds of information management, and sharing of image information on network.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (AURA DR 43C-AG Digital Flat Panel X-ray Detector) and focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than presenting a study demonstrating the device meets a specific set of acceptance criteria in the way one might for an AI/ML clinical study.
Therefore, many of the requested categories for a study proving acceptance criteria cannot be directly extracted from this document, as the submission takes a different approach to demonstrating safety and effectiveness.
Here's an analysis based on the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

ACCELEDENT AURA
AcceleDent® Aura is intended for use during orthodontic treatment. It is used in conjunction with orthodontic appliances such as braces and helps facilitate minor anterior tooth movement.
AcceleDent® Aura is an orthodontic accessory for the treatment of tooth malocclusion. It is used as an adjunctive therapy for patients with orthodontic appliances such as braces to help facilitate tooth movement. AcceleDent® Aura should be used by patients for twenty minutes per day in conjunction with standard orthodontic treatment.
AcceleDent® Aura includes the Activator, Mouthpiece and Travel Case. The Activator and connected Mouthpiece are used by patients to provide a light vibration to the teeth – the Activator vibrates at a 0.25 N (25 grams) force level and 30 Hz frequency for 20 minutes when turned-on; the vibration is transmitted from the Activator through the Mouthpiece to the patient's teeth as they lightly bite down on the Mouthpiece.
The Activator and Mouthpiece assembly is light, comfortable, hands-free, and can be used while multi-tasking or while engaged in a variety of other daily activities. The Travel Case is an enclosure that may be used to conceal, protect, and keep the AcceleDent® Aura Activator and Mouthpiece clean while not in use. The device includes a USB port, which can connect directly into a computer or power supply to recharge the battery. The USB port can also be connected to a computer to display usage data. A USB Cable and Power Adaptor are included to complete the system.
The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the AcceleDent Aura, an orthodontic accessory. It explicitly states: "No further clinical data were collected for AcceleDent® Aura." This means there isn't a new study demonstrating the device meets acceptance criteria as typically understood for new medical devices requiring clinical trials.
Instead, the submission relies on the concept of substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device (AcceleDent, K110661). The acceptance criteria and "proof" in this context refer to engineering and performance testing comparing the new device (AcceleDent Aura) to the predicate device to ensure it performs safely and as intended, without significant differences in safety or effectiveness.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided document:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The acceptance criteria are implicitly that the AcceleDent Aura performs functionally equivalently to the predicate AcceleDent, particularly regarding the therapeutic vibration parameters and intended use. The performance data presented is primarily a comparison table that shows identical specifications for the core therapeutic elements.
Feature / Acceptance Criteria | Predicate Device (AcceleDent) Performance | Subject Device (AcceleDent Aura) Performance | Note/Acceptance |
---|---|---|---|
Intended Use (facilitate minor anterior tooth movement) | Yes | Yes | Identical. Acceptance: Considered substantially equivalent for this critical aspect. |

Power Source (Lithium Polymer Battery) | Lithium Polymer Battery | Lithium Polymer Battery | Identical. Acceptance: Same battery type. |
Output Force (0.25 N / 25 g) | 0.25 N (25 g) | 0.25 N (25 g) | Identical. Acceptance: This is a critical therapeutic parameter. Maintaining the same output force ensures similar biological effect. |
Frequency (30 Hz) | 30 Hz | 30 Hz | Identical. Acceptance: This is another critical therapeutic parameter. Maintaining the same frequency ensures similar biological effect. |
Weight - Activator (grams) | 65 g | 33 g | Difference. New device is lighter. Acceptance: Improved user experience, not expected to negatively impact safety or effectiveness, potentially enhances compliance. |
Dimensions - Activator (HxLxW -mm) | 76x41x28 | 79x36x30 | Difference. Slight dimensional changes. Acceptance: Not expected to impact therapy, likely related to reduced weight/design improvements. |
Rechargeable | Yes | Yes | Identical. Acceptance: Functionality maintained. |
Automatic Timer | Yes | Yes | Identical. Acceptance: Functionality maintained. |
Usage Data | Yes - Displayed on charging port | Yes - Displayed on PC (FastTrac Usage Report) | Difference. Method of displaying usage data changed. Acceptance: Functionality maintained, with an update to data access method (PC connection via USB). This is an enhancement, not a compromise. |
Activator/Mouthpiece Attachments | Yes / Same | Yes / Same | Identical. Acceptance: Core components are present and compatible. |

Shelf Life | 2.0 years | 2.0 years | Identical. Acceptance: Device stability maintained. |
Battery Life | 2.5 years | 2.0 years* | Difference. Slightly reduced stated battery life (2.0 years vs 2.5 years, with deactivation after 18 months of daily use). Acceptance: The battery life is still sufficient for the intended treatment duration and designed to deactivate after accumulated usage, indicating a controlled obsolescence rather than a deficiency. This is disclosed and deemed acceptable. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of clinical testing for this 510(k) submission. The changes were evaluated through design control review, risk analysis (ISO 14971), and verification testing (IEC 60601 and device specifications), rather than a sample of patient data.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable for clinical data. The engineering and performance testing would have been conducted by the manufacturer, OrthoAccel Technologies, Inc., based in Bellaire, TX, USA. These are laboratory/bench tests, not patient-derived data.
- Retrospective/Prospective: Not applicable.
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 as there was no clinical test set for which ground truth needed to be established by experts. The "ground truth" for this 510(k) is the performance of the predicate device.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable as there was no clinical test set 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
- Not applicable. This device is an orthodontic vibrating accessory, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This device is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- For this 510(k), the "ground truth" for performance is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate device (AcceleDent, K110661), which was presumably demonstrated through its own testing and clinical data at the time of its 510(k) clearance. The AcceleDent Aura is deemed substantially equivalent because its modifications do not alter its fundamental scientific technology, intended use, or therapeutic parameters (output force, frequency).
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable, as no clinical training set was used for this 510(k) submission for the AcceleDent Aura device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable, as no clinical training set was used.
