    Intended Use

    The Catapult Guide Sheath is indicated to be used for introduction of interventional and diagnostic devices into the peripheral (and coronary) vasculature.

    The COMPASS Guiding Introducer Sheath is indicated to be used for introduction of interventional and diagnostic devices into the peripheral (and coronary) vasculature. The device is also intended to be used within a pediatric population.

    The Fortress Introducer Sheath System is intended to provide access and to facilitate percutaneous introduction of guide wres, catheters and other devices into the femoral, popliteal and infrapopliteal arteries while maintaining haemostasis during diagnostic and interventional procedures.

    Device Description

    The Introducer Sheath System devices consist of a coil reinforced introducer sheath with hemostasis valve and side port, as well as a dilator with a tapered tip and luer lock at the proximal end. The main introducer sheath tubing is connected at the proximal end to a hemostasis valve with side port tubing that is connected to a plastic color coded 3-way stopcock valve. The side port is used for flushing the introducer sheath. The sheath is introduced into the vascular system with the aid of the dilator. The hemostasis valve at the proximal end of the introducer sheath conforms and seals around guide wires and catheters to reduce blood leakage from the introducer sheath. A radiopaque marker helps identify the distal end of the introducer sheath. The introducer sheath has a lubricious hydrophilic coating on the outer surface in length of 20cm on the distal portion.

    The System consists of the following components:

    • A One Introducer Sheath with hemostasis valve
    • A One or two dilator(s)
    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the Catapult Guide Sheath / Introducer Sheath System. It details the device, its intended use, comparison to a predicate device, and the performance testing conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

    However, the questions you've asked are typical for the evaluation of AI/ML-driven medical devices, especially related to diagnostic or classification tasks (e.g., image analysis for disease detection). The device described in the document (Catapult Guide Sheath) is a physical medical device (an introducer sheath system) used for physical introduction of interventional and diagnostic devices into the vasculature, not an AI/ML software device.

    Therefore, the provided document does not contain the information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria and study proving device meets acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device. Many of the questions (e.g., sample size for test set, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set details) are irrelevant to the type of device being reviewed in this FDA submission.

    Here's why and what information is available:

    • Type of Device: The Catapult Guide Sheath is a Class II physical medical device (introducer catheter). It's a tool, not a diagnostic or AI algorithm.
    • Purpose of Submission (510(k)): This submission is to demonstrate "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device (Catapult Guide Sheath Introducer Sheath System, K240957). This is a common pathway for physical devices with modifications or new physical devices that are very similar to existing ones. The core of the substantial equivalence argument relies on demonstrating that the new device performs similarly to the predicate device, especially after a material change (insourced HVA).
    • "Acceptance Criteria" for this device: For this type of device, "acceptance criteria" are related to mechanical performance, biocompatibility, sterilization, and shelf-life, ensuring the device functions as intended and is safe. These are detailed in Table 2, listing the tests performed and the applicable standards.
    • "Study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria": The document lists a series of non-clinical (laboratory) tests that were performed. These tests are the "study" demonstrating the device meets the performance requirements for substantial equivalence.

    Therefore, I cannot fill out the detailed table and answer the specific questions about AI/ML device evaluation based on the provided text. The text focuses on the mechanical, material, and safety performance of a physical device, not the diagnostic or predictive performance of an AI algorithm.

    If your intention was to ask about the evaluation of a physical medical device, I can re-frame the answer based on the provided document.

    Assuming you are asking for information relevant to the physical medical device described, here's an attempt to interpret your questions in that context, recognizing that most are geared towards AI/ML:

    2. Sample Size for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    For a physical device, "test set" refers to the number of units tested. The specific sample sizes for each mechanical test are not detailed in this summary (they would be in the full submission). The data provenance is from non-clinical (laboratory) testing conducted by the manufacturer and external laboratories. It is not patient data, so "country of origin of the data," "retrospective or prospective" do not apply.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

    This question is not applicable. "Ground truth" in the context of AI/ML diagnostic devices refers to a definitive diagnosis or finding. For a physical device, the "ground truth" is established by the specifications and performance requirements derived from engineering principles and relevant ISO standards. No human experts are used to "establish ground truth" in this context; instead, engineers and technicians conduct specified physical and chemical tests.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. There's no "adjudication" (e.g., consensus among readers) needed for a physical device's performance testing. Test results are quantitative measurements against defined criteria.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

    Not applicable. MRMC studies are for evaluating human reader performance, typically with and without AI assistance, for diagnostic tasks. This device is not an AI diagnostic tool.

    6. 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. Its "standalone performance" refers to its mechanical and material properties as tested in the lab.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    For this physical device, the "ground truth" for performance is defined by:

    • International standards (ISO, AAMI, ASTM, EN): These standards define acceptable limits and testing methodologies for medical device properties (e.g., leakage, tensile strength, biocompatibility, sterility).
    • Predicate device performance: The previously cleared predicate device provides a benchmark for expected performance characteristics of the new device.
    • Manufacturer's internal design specifications and risk analysis: Derived from the intended use and safety considerations.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. This device does not involve a "training set" as it's not an AI/ML algorithm.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable. There is no "training set" or "ground truth" for training in the AI/ML sense for this device.

    AI/ML Overview

    This is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Prelude Guide Sheath). The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on non-clinical performance data and material comparisons, not on evaluating an AI/ML algorithm. Therefore, many of the requested criteria related to AI/ML device studies (such as sample size for test/training sets, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, etc.) are not applicable or readily extractable from this specific document.

    However, I can provide the acceptance criteria and performance as described for the non-clinical tests.

    Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document states that "The results of the testing demonstrated that the subject Prelude Guide Sheath met the predetermined acceptance criteria applicable to the performance of the device."

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Olympus Medical Systems Corp.'s Single Use Guide Sheath Kit K-401/K-402. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device (K192164).

    Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information provided:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The submission claims substantial equivalence to its predicate device (K192164) and does not explicitly list performance acceptance criteria in a table format with corresponding reported performance values for each criterion. Instead, it states that the only technological difference from the predicate is the outer diameter of the Guide Sheath SG-400C, and that this difference was validated.

    Key Difference and Stated Performance:

    FeatureAcceptance Criteria (Implied by Predicate)Reported Device Performance (Subject Device)
    SG-400C Maximum insertion portion diameterφ1.95mm (Predicate Device)φ1.91mm (Subject Device)

    The document states, "The difference above has been validated and it is demonstrated that this technological feature does not raise no new safety issues and are substantially equivalent to the predicate device."

    Performance Data and Demonstrated Safety/Effectiveness (for SG-400C only):
    The following performance tests were conducted to demonstrate safety and effectiveness for the SG-400C only (as FB-433D and BC-205D had no specification changes):

    • Radiographic Testing
    • Catheter Joint/Tensile Testing
    • Dimensional Testing
    • Simulated Use Testing
    • Trackability Testing (insertion & withdrawal)

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document does not specify the sample sizes used for the performance tests (Radiographic, Catheter Joint/Tensile, Dimensional, Simulated Use, Trackability).
    The data provenance is not explicitly stated. However, this is a submission by Olympus Medical Systems Corp. in Japan for a device manufactured in Japan, indicating the testing was likely conducted in Japan. The studies are premarket validation studies, typically prospective, but the specific experimental design (e.g., patient cases, benchtop models) and retrospective/prospective nature of data collection are not detailed.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

    Not applicable. This device is a medical instrument (guide sheath, biopsy forceps, cytology brush), not an AI/software device that requires ground truth established by experts for diagnostic or image interpretation tasks. The evaluation is based on engineering performance tests and adherence to standards.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. As noted above, this is not an AI/software device requiring expert adjudication for diagnostic tasks. Performance is assessed against engineering specifications and validated through physical and functional testing.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    Not applicable. This is a medical device, not an AI diagnostic software. Therefore, an MRMC study and analysis of human reader improvement with/without AI assistance are irrelevant to this submission.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

    Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for this device's performance evaluation refers to engineering specifications, established medical device standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM, USP), and functional requirements for safe and effective operation. For example, dimensional accuracy, tensile strength, and successful trackability in simulated use are evaluated against predefined acceptable ranges or outcomes.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not a machine learning 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 a physical medical device, there is no ground truth establishment for it.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document consistently states "Samples passed established acceptance criteria" for the performance tests. However, the specific number of samples tested for each criterion ("sample size") is not explicitly provided in the given text for the non-clinical tests. The document only mentions "test samples" or "samples."

    For the In Vitro Modeling and In Vivo Testing, it states "In Vivo testing in a porcine model," indicating animal data.
    For Biocompatibility, specific animal numbers are mentioned for certain tests:

    • ISO Guinea Pig Maximization Sensitization (Guinea Pigs)
    • ISO Acute Systemic Toxicity in Mice (Mice)
    • USP Rabbit Material-Mediated Pyrogenicity (3 animals in Pyrogenicity test)
    • In Vivo Thromboresistance Study (Implies animal model, potentially porcine as mentioned above for in vivo testing).

    The data provenance is from non-clinical testing (bench testing, in vitro, and in vivo animal studies) and laboratory evaluations. The location/country of these studies is not specified, but the submission is from Medos International SARL in Switzerland to the U.S. FDA. The data is prospective as it was collected for the purpose of demonstrating device performance for this regulatory submission.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

    This type of information is not applicable to this submission. The "ground truth" for a medical device's performance in a 510(k) submission is established by meeting predefined engineering specifications, adherence to international standards (e.g., ISO), and successful outcomes in validated physical, chemical, and biological tests. There are no human "experts" in the sense of clinicians establishing ground truth from patient data, as this is not an AI/ML diagnostic or prognostic device study.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    This concept is not applicable to this type of device and study. Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are used for resolving discrepancies in human-read interpretations of clinical data, typically in studies involving multiple human readers or AI algorithms. The testing here is objective, based on physical and chemical measurements and biological responses.

    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 submission is for a percutaneous catheter, not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic or assistive device that would involve human readers.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML algorithm.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

    The "ground truth" (or more accurately, the demonstration of acceptable performance) is based on:

    • Engineering specifications and design inputs: The device was tested against its own design requirements.
    • International standards: Adherence to established standards like ISO 10555-1, ISO 11070, ISO 10993 series, ISO 11135-1, EN ISO 11607-1, and USP requirements.
    • Bench testing results: Objective measurements of physical properties (e.g., diameters, lengths, strengths, leaks, lubricity, kinking, torque, trackability).
    • In Vitro modeling results: Performance in simulated environments.
    • In Vivo animal testing results: Performance in a porcine model to meet customer requirements.
    • Biocompatibility test results: Demonstrating no adverse biological reactions based on standard tests (e.g., cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, systemic toxicity, pyrogenicity, hemolysis, complement activation, thromboresistance).

    The comparison is also made against the technological characteristics of a legally marketed predicate device (Neuron MAX System). The conclusion of "substantial equivalence" is the ultimate "ground truth" for regulatory clearance in this context.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

    Guide Sheath

    AI/MLSaMDIVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)TherapeuticDiagnosticis PCCP AuthorizedThirdpartyExpeditedreview
    Intended Use

    The Guide Sheath is intended to introduce therapeutic devices into the vasculature, excluding the coronary and neuro vasculature.

    Device Description

    The Surmodics Guide Sheath is designed to perform as a guide sheath and/or introducer sheath. The sheath is braid reinforced with an embedded radiopague marker band to identify the distal tip. It also has a hydrophilic coating over the working length to provide a lubricious surface to ease insertion. The device comes packaged with a dilator, which is either .018" or .035" guidewire compatible.

    This highly flexible, braid reinforced sheath is designed to resist kinking and maximize strength while keeping a minimized profile. Incorporated in the sheath is a radiopaque marker band located approximately 5mm from the distal tip. The Guide Sheath has an atraumatic tip and has a hydrophilic coating over the working length.

    The dilator hub is designed to snap into the Guide Sheath cross cut valve cap. Additionally, the dilator shaft design allows for simultaneous movement of the sheath and dilator assembly. The dilator features an atraumatic tip, which is designed to extend beyond the sheath tip by approximately 5 cm. The dilator shaft is radiopaque.

    The Guide Sheath features a custom designed cross cut valve that is integrated into the sheath hub and includes a 3-way stopcock with sidearm extension tubing. No assembly is required.

    The sheath is packaged in a dual sterile barrier configuration. The sheath and dilator will be placed individually in high density polyethylene (HDPE) coiled hoops, which are then placed in a poly-tyvek pouch within a shelf box.

    AI/ML Overview

    I apologize, but the provided text from the FDA 510(k) summary for the Surmodics Guide Sheath does not contain information related to a study proving a device meets acceptance criteria for an AI/software device.

    The document describes the acceptance criteria and performance of a physical medical device (catheter introducer) through various bench tests, packaging tests, and biocompatibility tests. It demonstrates substantial equivalence to a predicate device, as opposed to an AI or software product.

    Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for information regarding an AI device's acceptance criteria, data provenance, expert ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, or training set details, as these concepts are not applicable to the content provided.

    AI/MLSaMDIVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)TherapeuticDiagnosticis PCCP AuthorizedThirdpartyExpeditedreview
    Intended Use

    The Vessix™ Guide Sheath is designed to be used for the introduction of interventional and diagnostic devices through the vasculature to the renal arteries.

    Device Description

    Vessix™ Guide Sheath is a 7F guide sheath designed to perform as an introducer sheath and guide catheter for the introduction of interventional and diagnostic devices through the vasculature to the renal arteries. The Vessix Guide Sheath has been optimized for torque to allow access to both renal arteries during procedures. The guide sheath has an effective length of 45 cm and is available in two curve shapes: RDC (renal double curve) and LIMA (left internal mammary artery).

    The guide sheath has a braided shaft design to maximize torque response, and a pre-formed tip shape (either RDC or LIMA) to enable access. It is equipped with a Tuohy-Borst valve (hemostatic valve) to prevent bleeding and a sidearm with a three-way stopcock to allow for flushing and introduction of contrast media. It is also packaged with a dilator to help with delivery over a guidewire. The guide sheath can accommodate guidewires with diameters less than or equal to 0.038 in (0.97 mm). The distal 15 cm of the outer surface of the guide sheath has a hydrophilic coating (Bioslide™). The distal tip is radiopaque to help with placement.

    A polycarbonate hub is adhesively bonded to the proximal section of the guide sheath. It incorporates a luer fitting which serves as a junction to the hemostatic valve.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the Vessix™ Guide Sheath. It's important to note that the provided text describes a 510(k) submission for a medical device (guide sheath), which involves proving substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not typically a clinical study with human readers or AI.

    The information primarily focuses on bench testing and biocompatibility testing, which are common for physical medical devices, especially those that are fundamentally similar to existing technology. Therefore, many of the requested categories related to clinical studies, human readers, and AI assistance will be addressed by stating that such information is not applicable or not provided in this specific document.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document doesn't explicitly list "acceptance criteria" with numerical targets and then report specific "device performance" values against those targets in the format of a table as typically seen in clinical study reports. Instead, it lists the types of tests performed to demonstrate that the device meets requirements for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to the predicate. The "reported device performance" is implied to be "passed" or "conformed" to the requirements for each test.

    The document states: "The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the proposed device has been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for its intended use. No new safety or performance issues were raised during the testing and, therefore, this device may be considered substantially equivalent to the predicate device."

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    • Sample Size: The document does not specify the sample sizes for each of the bench or biocompatibility tests. This level of detail is typically found in the full test reports, not usually in the 510(k) summary itself.
    • Data Provenance: The data comes from bench testing (in-vitro performance) and biocompatibility testing conducted by Boston Scientific Corporation for the Vessix™ Guide Sheath. This is not clinical human data; it's laboratory testing of the device itself.
    • Country of Origin of Data: Not explicitly stated, but assumed to be performed according to international standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM) within the regulatory framework of the US (FDA).
    • Retrospective or Prospective: Not applicable as this refers to device testing, not clinical data collection.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

    This information is not applicable to this type of device submission. The "ground truth" for bench testing and biocompatibility is established by engineering specifications, material standards (e.g., ISO 10993 for biocompatibility), and validated test methods. It does not involve human expert consensus in the way an imaging study would.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    This is not applicable. Adjudication methods (like 2+1 or 3+1) are used in clinical studies, often for assessing ambiguous cases or establishing ground truth from multiple expert opinions. This document describes laboratory and physical testing of a medical device.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document does not mention any studies involving human readers, AI assistance, or comparative effectiveness in a clinical setting. The submission focuses on substantial equivalence based on technological characteristics and performance testing.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done

    No, a standalone algorithm performance study was not done. This device is a physical medical instrument (guide sheath), not a software algorithm or AI-powered system, so this type of study is irrelevant.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for the tests performed is based on:

    • Engineering Specifications: Defined dimensions, material properties, and functional performance requirements (e.g., burst pressure, tensile strength, kink resistance).
    • Biocompatibility Standards: Established criteria from standards like ISO 10993 for biological safety.
    • Predicate Device Comparison: The predicate device (Terumo Destination Renal Guiding Sheath K081045) serves as a benchmark for substantial equivalence, implying that its performance characteristics (if not explicitly exceeded or matched) were considered acceptable.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    This is not applicable. This device is a physical product, not a machine learning model. Therefore, there is no "training set."

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

    This is not applicable as there is no training set for this device.
