Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:
The "study" in this context refers to the non-clinical tests and analysis performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence and safety/effectiveness.
- Non-Clinical Testing: The document explicitly states that the "Electrode for Urinary Incontinence conforms to the following standards:" and then lists the three ISO 10993 standards mentioned above. This indicates that appropriate biocompatibility testing was performed and passed, leading to compliance with these standards.
- Comparison to Predicate Device: The 510(k) submission itself is a "study" of comparison, wherein the manufacturer presents arguments and data (including the declaration of compliance with standards) to demonstrate that their device is "substantially equivalent" to an already cleared predicate device. The FDA's review and clearance (K140265) indicate that they agreed with this assessment.
In conclusion, this regulatory document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence for market clearance, rather than reporting on a clinical effectiveness study with defined acceptance criteria for efficacy. The "acceptance criteria" are compliance with relevant safety standards (biocompatibility) and demonstration of similar technological characteristics and intended use as an existing cleared device.

Study Details:
The provided document describes a "510(k) Summary," which is an executive summary of a submission to the FDA seeking clearance for a medical device based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device already on the market. It is not a clinical study report in the traditional sense, especially not for an AI/algorithmic device. Therefore, many of your questions related to algorithmic performance metrics (like sample sizes for test/training sets, ground truth establishment by experts, MRMC studies, standalone performance, etc.) are not applicable to this type of submission.
Here's an attempt to address the questions based on the information available and the nature of a 510(k) for a physical, non-AI device:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- See the table above. The "acceptance criteria" for a 510(k) of this nature are that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices in terms of intended use and technological characteristics, and that it does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- Not applicable. This document describes a physical medical device (an electrode cap) and demonstrates substantial equivalence. It does not refer to a "test set" of data in the context of an algorithm's performance evaluation. The "study" here is a comparison of the new device's specifications and intended use against those of predicate devices.
-
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. There is no "ground truth" establishment in the context of an algorithmic test set for this device type and submission. The "ground truth" for a 510(k) submission like this is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices based on their prior clearance or pre-amendment status.
-
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not applicable. No test set or adjudication process as described for an algorithm is mentioned or required for this type of device submission.
-
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 is not an AI device, and no MRMC study is mentioned.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an algorithm.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- Not applicable in the AI sense. For this 510(k), the "ground truth" for the new device's safety and effectiveness is its direct comparison to legally marketed predicate devices whose safety and effectiveness are already established. The justification relies on the similarity of design, materials, and intended use to these pre-existing devices.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. There is no "training set" for this physical device.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable. There is no "training set" or corresponding ground truth establishment for this physical device.
Summary for the Electrode Array Cap:
The Electrode Array Cap achieved FDA clearance (K071446) based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to two predicate devices:
The "study" presented in this 510(k) summary is a detailed comparison of the new device's intended use and technological characteristics with those of the predicate devices. The core argument for acceptance is that the Electrode Array Cap shares the same intended use (rapid placement of EEG electrodes in routine clinical settings) and similar technological features (elastic cap, sintered Ag/AgCl electrodes, shielded wires, compatibility with EEG amplifiers), while also conforming to relevant industry standards (AAMI EC53-1995, IEC 60601-1 subclause 56.3 (c)). The specific design choices, such as internal lead wires and PVC electrode holders, are presented as consistent with or minor variations from the predicate devices, not raising new questions of safety or effectiveness.

The Coated Electrodes are intended for use in situations where monopolar electrosurgical cutting and coagulation are normally used.
The E Surgical coated electrodes are designed as a standard stainless steel active electrode with a nonstick coating to prevent tissue and char build-up on the electrode. Three models: ball, needle, and blade are included.
The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for E Surgical Coated Electrodes. It outlines the device's indications for use, predicate devices, and a summary of its technological characteristics. However, the document primarily focuses on regulatory approval and substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than a detailed study proving performance against specific acceptance criteria in the way a clinical study or robust scientific experiment would.
Therefore, much of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, ground truth, and expert involvement is not explicitly stated in the provided 510(k) summary. The summary highlights safety and performance data in a general sense, aligning with regulatory requirements rather than providing a detailed study protocol and results.
Here's a breakdown of the available information based on your request:
1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document lists "Safety and Performance Data" but these are presented as characteristics the device meets rather than clearly defined acceptance criteria with numerical performance targets and reported results against those targets.
Acceptance Criterion (Inferred/Stated) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Meets safety and performance requirements under ANSI/AAMI HF 18 Electrosurgical Devices. | Stated as "Meets safety and performance requirements under ANSI/AAMI HF 18 Electrosurgical Devices." (No specific numerical results or details are provided). |
Non-stick coating integrity after bending. | "Finished product non-stick coating was bent to 90 degrees ten times without visible cracking of the coating." |
Cutting or coagulation initiation performance. | "Cutting or coagulation is initiated immediately at both lower and higher power settings." |
Easy to clean properties after use on tissue. | "Easy to clean properties after use on tissue." |
Biocompatibility of materials. | "Materials used in the construction of the electrodes meet ISO 10993 Biocompatibility requirements." |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample size for test set: Not specified. The document does not describe a formal "test set" in the context of a clinical or comparative study. The listed performance data (e.g., coating bend test) likely refers to in-house testing, but the sample sizes for these tests are not provided.
- Data provenance: Not specified. Given the nature of a 510(k) summary focusing on substantial equivalence and general safety/performance, the data provenance for the internal tests is not detailed (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective).
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
Not applicable. The document does not describe a test set requiring expert-established ground truth in a clinical or diagnostic context. The performance claims are based on engineering and material characteristic tests rather than diagnostic accuracy.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
Not applicable. No clinical or diagnostic test set requiring adjudication is described.
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 electrosurgical electrode, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool. Therefore, an MRMC study related to human readers and AI assistance would not be relevant.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This device is an electrosurgical electrode and does not involve algorithms or AI for standalone performance evaluation in that context.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
Not applicable in the conventional sense of diagnostic performance. The "ground truth" for the reported performance criteria would be:
- ANSI/AAMI HF 18: Compliance with the standard.
- Coating integrity: Visual inspection against cracking.
- Cutting/coagulation initiation: Likely observed by engineers or trained personnel during testing.
- Easy to clean properties: Subjective assessment or a defined cleaning protocol with a pass/fail criterion.
- Biocompatibility: Documentation/certification of meeting ISO 10993.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. There is no mention of a training set as this is not an AI/machine learning device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable, for the same reason as above.
In summary: The provided 510(k) document is a regulatory submission for substantial equivalence. It confirms the device meets general safety and performance requirements and is comparable to predicate devices but does not contain the detailed study protocols, sample sizes, expert involvement, or statistical analyses typically found in clinical studies or papers proving specific performance against quantitative acceptance criteria for diagnostic devices.

The document primarily relies on:
- Compliance with established regulatory and voluntary standards: IEC 60601 series, 21 CFR Part 898.
- Internal verification and validation testing: This includes environmental, EMI/EMC, safety, and general performance testing, as well as software verification. The "acceptance criteria" for these tests were established based on "product specifications and applicable standards."
- Substantial Equivalence: The core argument for regulatory clearance is that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices, implying similar safety and effectiveness parameters without requiring new extensive clinical performance studies. The CO2 module uses the "same sensor design" as a previously cleared module, and the overall design is "equivalent to the predicate in acquisition and data development."

Technomed Europe diagnostic needle electrodes are intended to be inserted in the subdermal, muscle or nerve tissue to sense bio-electric, EMG or EEG, signals distally, and are intended to be proximal be connected to electromyography / electroencephalogram recording equipment.
The intended use of the Technomed devices are consistent with Code of Federal Regulations title 21, volume 8 part 882.1350.
Technomed Europe Needle electrode's and accessories consist of a variety of needle electrode's and accessories to be used for bioelectric sensing in the diagnostic field of EEG or EMG.
This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for Technomed Europe's EEG/EMG needle electrodes. It serves to establish substantial equivalence to previously marketed devices. The content provided does not describe a study involving acceptance criteria, device performance, AI, or ground truth establishment. Instead, it focuses on regulatory information required for FDA clearance.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information because the provided text does not contain details about: Acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, types of ground truth, or how ground truth was established for training data.
The document explicitly states: "{1}------------------------------------------------ J) Intended use: Technomed Europe diagnostic needle needle electrode's are intended to be inserted in the subdermal, muscle or nerve tissue only to sense bio-electric, EMG or EEG, signals distally, and will proximal be connected to: Electromyography/electroencephalogram recording equipment K) Technological Characteristics: The design, materials, chemical composition, packaging and other technological characteristics of the subject devices are considered to be the equivalent of the predicated devices." This sentence, in particular, indicates that the submission relies on the technological equivalence to predicate devices rather than new performance studies with specific acceptance criteria.

The Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox is an accessory intended to provide selective connection of multi-electrode catheters for electrogram recording and pacing during diagnostic electrophysiology studies.
The Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox is a passive switching unit used in conventional electrophysiology (EP) diagnostic procedures. It is designed to provide a convenient means by which the user can record or pace from multiple unipolar or bipolar intracardiac electrodes. The device is designed to be placed on a horizontal surface or at the patient's side. It is designed to accept up to eight electrodes using standard pin connectors typically found in the EP lab. Switching between record or pace modes is accomplished by a simple switch for each electrode.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Conformance to International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) electromechanical standard IEC-60601-1, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety. | The results show that the switchbox meets conformance with the standard. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
The document does not specify a distinct "test set" in the context of clinical or performance data using a sample of devices. The safety and effectiveness study was based on conformance to an engineering standard. Therefore, traditional sample size and data provenance for a test set (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective) are not applicable in the way they would be for a clinical study involving patient data. The study primarily involved testing the device itself against engineering specifications.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:
This information is not applicable. The ground truth was established by conformance to an industrial safety standard (IEC-60601-1), which involves engineering testing and evaluation, not expert consensus on clinical interpretation.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
This information is not applicable as the "test set" refers to the device being evaluated against an engineering standard, not a clinical dataset requiring adjudication.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:
No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not performed. The device is a passive switching unit, not an AI or diagnostic tool that would typically involve human readers interpreting cases.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study:
No, a standalone (algorithm only) performance study was not conducted for an AI component. The device is a hardware component with a specific electrical function, not an algorithm. The study was focused on the device's electrical safety and functionality.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used:
The ground truth used was conformance to established engineering and safety standards, specifically International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) electromechanical standard IEC-60601-1, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set:
This information is not applicable. The device is a hardware product, not a machine learning model, so there is no concept of a "training set" for an algorithm.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
This information is not applicable as there is no training set for a machine learning model. The safety and effectiveness were established through
"Declaration of Conformity" with a recognized consensus standard.
