The Cleaner™ Rotational Thrombectomy System is indicated for mechanical declotting of native vessel dialysis fistulae and synthetic dialysis access grafts.

The Cleaner™ Rotational Thrombectomy System is indicated for mechanical declotting and controlled and selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, in the peripheral vascular.

The Cleaner™ Rotational Thrombectomy System is a percutaneous infusion system that utilizes a rotating sinusoidal wire to increase the dispersion of delivered solution. The devices employ mechanical rotation of a flexible "S" shaped dispersion wire at 4000 RPM which creates a fluid vortex within the treatment site. Contrast media and physician specified solutions, including thrombolytics, may be infused through the catheter lumen to a side hole at the distal end. The dispersion wire uses mechanical rotation to allow the infused solution to penetrate the clot increasing the effectiveness of the treatment. Any residual clot can be aspirated through an introducer sheath prior to restoration of flow. The distal soft tip is a radiopaque a-traumatic tip on the distal end of the dispersion wire. The devices are sterile and single-use disposable.

This FDA 510(k) summary for the Cleaner™ Rotational Thrombectomy System does not include specific acceptance criteria or a detailed study description with performance metrics in numerical form. It refers to general "bench testing and animal studies" and "performance testing" to support substantial equivalence.

Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance, nor details about sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or expert involvement as these are not present in the provided document.

However, I can extract information related to the types of studies conducted and general conclusions:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
Not provided in the document. The document states: "Results of bench testing and animal studies demonstrate Cleaner™ Rotational Thrombectomy System is as safe and effective as the legally marketed predicate device." However, no specific performance metrics or acceptance criteria are listed.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
Not provided in precise detail. The document mentions "A GLP animal study was conducted" but does not specify the number of animals or the species used, or the country of origin. It's prospective by nature of being an animal study.

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 provided in the document.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not provided in the document.

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

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

• Cannot be provided. The document states that "Test methodology and acceptance criteria were derived from within Rex Medical and from related ISO standards for evaluation of this device," but it does not specify these criteria or the reported performance metrics against them. The conclusion simply states the device is "substantially equivalent" to the predicate.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

• No test set for clinical performance is mentioned. The testing described is "bench testing and animal studies," which are non-clinical. No sample sizes for these are provided, nor is their provenance or study design (retrospective/prospective) detailed.

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 / Cannot be provided. There's no mention of a clinical test set requiring expert ground truth establishment.

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

• Not applicable / Cannot be provided. There's no mention of a 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
