I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the detailed information necessary to answer your request about acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance in the format you specified.
The document is a 510(k) premarket notification from the FDA, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not on presenting a detailed study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the way you've outlined.
Here's what the document does provide and why it doesn't fit your request:
- Non-Clinical Test Conclusion: It mentions that "Non clinical tests were conducted to verify that the proposed device met all design specifications as was Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the predicate device." It lists several ISO and ASTM standards that the device complies with, in areas such as biological evaluation, sterilization residuals, irritation/hypersensitivity, bacterial endotoxins, and seal strength of packaging.
- No Clinical Study: It explicitly states, "No clinical study is included in this submission."
- Comparison Tables (Tables 1-5): These tables compare the proposed devices (various staplers) with predicate devices on technical characteristics like product code, regulation number, intended use, cutting mechanism, operation principle, safety mechanism, closed staple height, closed staple form, patient-contact material, sterilization method, endotoxin limit, and labeling. This comparison is to establish "substantial equivalence," not to detail acceptance criteria and performance against those criteria as a standalone study.
Therefore, I cannot extract:
- A table of specific acceptance criteria and reported device performance. The document only mentions compliance with standards.
- Sample size, data provenance, number of experts for ground truth, adjudication method, or ground truth type for a test set of a performance study.
- Information about a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study or a standalone algorithm performance.
- Sample size and ground truth establishment for a training set.
The document's purpose is to demonstrate that the new devices are as safe and effective as already marketed devices, primarily through comparison of technical characteristics and adherence to general performance standards, rather than presenting a novel performance study against defined acceptance criteria.

Regarding the other requested information:
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: This document does not specify sample sizes for specific tests or the provenance of any "data provenance" (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective clinical data) as it's a submission for a medical device (surgical staplers) based on non-clinical performance and substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices, not an AI/ML diagnostic or prognostic tool. The tests mentioned are "Performance Testing, including Physical Specification, Closed Staple Height Dimensions, Pressure Perforrnality Tisting, Mercums Tensile Strength of Staple Line Repair and Force Required to Fire Stapler" {4}.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for surgical staplers like this would typically be established through engineering specifications, material standards, and performance testing against those standards, not expert consensus on interpretations of data.
- Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
- If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: No, an MRMC study was not done as this is not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic device.
- If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is a manual surgical instrument.
- The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): The "ground truth" for this type of device would be its adherence to established engineering specifications, material standards (e.g., ASTM F 67-06 for titanium), and performance thresholds (e.g., pressure resistance, hardness) determined through non-clinical testing.
- The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device requiring a training set.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
In summary, this 510(k) submission demonstrates substantial equivalence of a physical medical device (surgical staplers) to previously cleared devices based on non-clinical performance testing and design specifications, rather than clinical studies or AI/ML algorithm evaluations which would require the detailed information requested.

Stated "no appreciable differences in the energy needed to insert or extract the staples" despite staple size difference. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes for the bench testing, biocompatibility testing, or sterility testing. It describes these as "bench testing," "biocompatibility testing," and "sterility testing" without detailing the number of units or samples used in each test.
The data provenance is from laboratory and bench tests conducted by or for Changzhou City Zhiye Medical Devices Institute Co., Ltd. (China). The data is prospective in the sense that these tests were performed specifically for this 510(k) submission to demonstrate compliance.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
This is not applicable as the study did not involve human experts establishing "ground truth" in the context of diagnostic interpretation. The "ground truth" for this device focused on objective engineering, material, and biological safety standards. The "experts" would be the scientists, engineers, and microbiologists conducting and evaluating the tests against established international and ASTM standards.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
Not applicable. The tests performed are objective measurements against defined standards, not subjective interpretations requiring adjudication.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done
No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is typically conducted for diagnostic imaging devices or AI tools that assist human interpretation, not for mechanical surgical staplers.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This device is a mechanical surgical instrument, not an algorithm or AI. Its performance is inherent to its design and manufacturing, tested objectively, and always used by a human surgeon ("human-in-the-loop" in a different sense).
7. The type of ground truth used
The "ground truth" for this device was established based on:
- Pre-defined international standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM) for materials, biocompatibility, and sterilization.
- Predicate device performance characteristics for functional aspects like staple insertion/extraction energy.
- Objective measurements and laboratory assays.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML model, so there is no "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable. As there is no training set for an AI/ML model, this question is irrelevant to the provided document.

The Disposable Circular Stapler is intended to be used throughout the alimentary tract for the creation of end-to-end and end-to-side anastomosis.
The Disposable Circular Stapler places a circular, double staggered row of titanium staples and resects the excess tissue, creating a circular anastomosis. The instrument is activated by squeezing the handle firmly as far as it will go. It is applicable to end-to-end and end-to-side anastomosis. The proposed device is provided EO sterilized.
The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device (Disposable Circular Stapler) and the FDA's response. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study designed to prove the device meets those criteria in the way typically expected for an AI/CADe device. The "Testing Conclusion" section states: "Performance testing was conducted to validate and verify that the proposed device, Disposable Circular Stapler met all design specifications and was substantially equivalent to the predicate device." However, it does not provide details about what those design specifications (acceptance criteria) were, nor does it describe the study that was conducted.
Therefore, most of the requested information cannot be extracted from the provided document.
Here's a breakdown of what can and cannot be answered based on the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- Cannot be provided. The document states "Performance testing was conducted to validate and verify that the proposed device... met all design specifications," but it does not list these specific design specifications (acceptance criteria) or the quantitative results of the device's performance against them.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- Cannot be provided. The document states "Performance testing was conducted," but it does not specify any test set size, data provenance, or the nature of the data (e.g., in-vitro, ex-vivo, in-vivo animal, or human clinical 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):
- Cannot be provided. There is no mention of ground truth establishment by experts for a test set, as this is not a study of diagnostic accuracy or similar performance for which expert consensus would typically be required. The device is a surgical stapler, and its performance evaluation would likely involve mechanical and functional testing, not expert interpretation of outputs.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Cannot be provided. As there's no mention of a test set or expert involvement, adjudication methods are not applicable and not discussed.
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:
- Cannot be provided. This is not an AI/CADe device, and therefore, an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is not relevant to this device and was not performed or reported.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Cannot be provided. This is a physical surgical device, not an algorithm. Standalone algorithm performance is not applicable.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
- Cannot be provided. The concept of "ground truth" as typically applied in AI/CADe studies (e.g., for diagnostic accuracy) does not directly apply to the performance testing of a mechanical surgical stapler. Its "ground truth" would likely be defined by engineering specifications, material properties, and functional tests (e.g., staple formation, burst pressure, tissue compression, leak tests). The document does not detail these.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Cannot be provided. The device is a physical stapler, not a machine learning model, so there is no training set in the context of AI.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Cannot be provided. As above, there is no training set for this type of device.
In summary: The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a physical surgical device. It states that performance testing was conducted to verify that the device met design specifications and was substantially equivalent to a predicate device. However, it does not provide the specific details of these design specifications (acceptance criteria) or the methodology, sample sizes, or results of the performance testing in the manner typically expected for a detailed study report of an AI/CADe device. The questions posed are primarily relevant to AI/CADe device evaluation, which is not what this document addresses.
