CIV-FLEX HOLSTER COVER, MODEL STERILE, LATEX-FREE
A protective cover for a mechanical breast biopsy device reusable holster / cable assembly that helps prevent contamination [blood, body fluids, ultrasound gel, etc.] of the holster control buttons, and thus allowing for reprocessing of the holster between patient uses; covers are single use, disposable.
The CIV-Flex™ Holster Cover device provides a thin, conformal protective covering for the disposable probe / reusable holster and cable assembly components of the Ethicon Endo-Surgery Mammotome® mechanical breast biopsy device. The cover is manufactured as a one-piece sleeve design that is open on both ends with a tapered fit to the holster / probe geometry. The cover material is transparent for visualization of the holster control buttons during use. Cover material is polyurethane film. Material system is free of any latex natural rubber. Covers are packaged sterile in a pouch for single patient / procedure, disposable use. Cover is supplied with latex free Kraton® thermoplastic elastomer bands for use in securing the cover to the holster and cable.
The information provided describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the CIV-Flex™ Holster Cover, focusing on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the CIVCO Poly [CIV-Flex™] Ultrasound Transducer Cover (K970513). As this is a submission for a protective cover, the "performance" and "acceptance criteria" are related to its physical properties, biocompatibility, and ability to act as a barrier, rather than diagnostic accuracy metrics typically found in AI/ML device studies.
Here's an analysis of the provided text, structured to address your specific points where applicable, and noting when information is not present or relevant to this type of device:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The provided document does not explicitly list "acceptance criteria" in a quantitative, metric-based format as one might expect for a diagnostic device. Instead, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device by comparing various parameters and highlighting that the new device meets the same performance and safety standards established for the predicate.
The "Effectiveness" section offers the closest information to performance, focusing on mechanical integrity and barrier properties.
Parameter (effectively "Acceptance Criteria") | CIV-Flex™ Holster Cover Performance (Reported Performance) |
