FRESENIUS 2008K HOME HEMODIALYSIS MACHINE WITH WIRELESS WETNESS DETECTOR (WETALERT)
2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine Indications for Use
The Fresenius 2008K@home is indicated for acute and chronic dialysis therapy in an acute or chronic facility. The 2008K@home is also indicated for hemodialysis in the home and must be observed by a trained and qualified person as prescribed by their physician .:
Wireless Wetness Detector (Wet Alert) Indications for Use
The Wireless Wetness Detector is indicated for use with the Fresenius 2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine and is an optional accessory to aid in the detection of blood and water leaks during hemodialysis. Home hemodialysis using the detector must be observed by a trained and qualified person as prescribed by their physician.
The 2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine with Wireless Detector is intended for short term (acute) and long term (chronic) dialysis treatment in a clinical facility and at home. In the home, a trained and qualified person must observe treatment as prescribed by a physician.
The 2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine is designed to provide hemodialysis treatment by controlling and monitoring both the dialysate and extracorporeal blood circuits. In the extracorporeal blood circuit, blood is continuously circulated from the patient through a dialyzer, where toxins are filtered out through a semi-permeable membrane, and returned to the patient. During this process, the extracorporeal blood circuit is monitored for venous and arterial blood pressures, and for the presence of air and blood.
The Wireless Wetness Detector system (branded as WetAlert) is an optional accessory to the 2008K@home. It is a multi-use, battery-powered device capable of detecting fluid leaks (i.e., blood or other conductive fluids). During treatment, the Wireless Wetness Detector transmits radio signals to the corresponding 2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine and will alert the 2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine if it detects a blood or water leak. During a wetness alarm, the 2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine will automatically stop the blood pump, close the venous clamp, and sound an alarm.
Modifications to the previously cleared 2008K@home with Wireless Wetness Detector system include:
- . 2008K@home Hemodialysis Machine- Replace the single receiver system with a dual antenna/receiver configuration for reception durability.
- . Wireless Wetness Detector- Change the Wireless Wetness Detector device body from a solid over-molded enclosure to a hollow, lighter weight, two-part bonded plastic case.
- . Wireless Wetness Detector- Modify the software to enhance the electrostatic immunity of the device.
- 2008K@home WetAlert Home User's Guide- The guide is being separated into a clinical . and a home version. Additional modifications include instructions and descriptions of changes.
The request describes the acceptance criteria and study that proves the device meets them, but the provided text does not contain detailed acceptance criteria or specific study results for quantitative performance metrics. The document is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than providing exhaustive performance data.
However, based on the information provided, here's what can be extracted and inferred:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not explicitly list quantitative acceptance criteria with corresponding performance metrics. Instead, it states that "All testing...met the acceptance criteria." The overall acceptance criterion is based on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to the predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness, and functioning "as intended."
| Acceptance Criteria (Inferred) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Device functions "as intended" (detect fluid leaks, alarm, stop blood pump, close venous clamp) | "All testing...met the acceptance criteria." (implies successful leak detection and alarm response) |
| Modifications do not affect essential performance | "The performance data...demonstrate that the modified...system is substantially equivalent to the unmodified version..." |
| Wireless verification and performance acceptable | Testing included "wireless verification and performance" and "met the acceptance criteria." |
| Electromagnetic emissions and immunity acceptable | Testing included "electromagnetic emissions and immunity" and "met the acceptance criteria." |
| Mechanical integrity acceptable | Testing included "mechanical testing" and "met the acceptance criteria." |
| Usability for intended users acceptable | "Usability testing was also conducted to assure safe and effective use by the intended users. The results...did not prompt additional changes." |
| Safety and effectiveness comparable to predicate device | "The performance data demonstrate that the...system is as safe and effective, and performs as well as the predicate device." |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not specify the sample size for the test set. It mentions "Design verification and validation tests were conducted," but does not provide details on the number of devices or scenarios used in these tests.
The data provenance is not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective, nor does it mention the country of origin. The testing was conducted "according to existing FMCNA procedures, protocols, declared performance standards and guidelines of the quality system regulation (21 CFR 820)" by the manufacturer (Fresenius Medical Care North America) based in Waltham, MA, USA.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for testing. The testing appears to be based on engineering and performance validation against predefined specifications and regulatory guidelines rather than expert consensus on subjective data.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. There is no mention of adjudication methods as the testing described is technical verification and validation, not involving human interpretation of data for ground truth establishment.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document focuses on the technical performance of the device and its equivalence to a predicate, not on human reader performance with or without AI assistance. The device is a "Wireless Wetness Detector" for fluid leaks, not an AI diagnostic tool.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
Yes, standalone performance testing of the device was done. The "Wireless Wetness Detector system" is a device that autonomously detects fluid leaks, transmits signals, and triggers alarms and machine responses. The performance data discussed (wireless verification, electromagnetic compatibility, mechanical testing) all relate to the standalone function of the device and its components. The document explicitly states, "The performance of the modified 2008K@home machine and Wireless Wetness Detector (WetAlert) system was evaluated according to existing FMCNA procedures, protocols, declared performance standards and guidelines..." implying autonomous testing.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth used for testing would be objective, measurable conditions for leak detection and system response. For example:
- Leak Detection: Actual presence or absence of conductive fluid (blood or water) in controlled experimental setups.
- Wireless Performance: Successful transmission and reception of signals under various conditions.
- Electromagnetic Compatibility: Adherence to established standards for emissions and immunity.
- Mechanical Integrity: Resistance to physical stress as per engineering specifications.
These are established by engineering standards and controlled experiments rather than expert consensus on subjective data.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not mention a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI. This device is an electromechanical system with software for control and signal processing, not a learning-based AI system that requires a training set.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, as there is no mention of a training set for an AI/machine learning model.
