The provided document, K041242 for the Candela Smoothbeam Laser System, describes the device and its intended uses, including a new indication for the treatment of sebaceous hyperplasia. However, it does not include detailed information regarding specific acceptance criteria, a clinical study design with performance metrics, sample sizes for test or training sets, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods for the new indication.
The document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Candela Smoothbeam 1450 nm Diode Laser System, K013825, K030834) for the expanded indication. It states: "Published clinical data, using t he predicate Smoothbeam Laser, cleared for use in the market, produced results that demonstrate that the Smoothbeam Laser is safe and effective for the expanded indication, - the treatment of sebaceous hyperplasia." This suggests that the substantial equivalence hinges on existing clinical data from the predicate device rather than a new standalone study for this specific 510(k) submission.
Therefore, many of the requested details about acceptance criteria and study particulars for this specific submission are not present in the provided text.
Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what is missing:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Not available in the provided text for the new indication of sebaceous hyperplasia. The document states that "Published clinical data, using the predicate Smoothbeam Laser, cleared for use in the market, produced results that demonstrate that the Smoothbeam Laser is safe and effective for the expanded indication." This implies that the acceptance criteria for "safety and effectiveness" for sebaceous hyperplasia were met by the existing data from the predicate device, but the specific quantitative criteria (e.g., percentage reduction in lesion size, number of lesions cleared, etc.) are not detailed.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
Not explicitly stated for the sebaceous hyperplasia indication in this document. The document refers to "Published clinical data" from the predicate device, but does not provide details of that specific study, including its sample size or data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective nature).
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
Not explicitly stated. Ground truth for the published clinical data of the predicate device is not described in this submission.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
Not explicitly stated. Adjudication method for the published clinical data of the predicate device is not described in this submission.
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. The Candela Smoothbeam Laser System is a physical medical device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging system involving human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study with AI assistance is not relevant to this submission.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
