The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a medical device (S.I.N. Instrument Kits, an instrument sterilization tray). This document describes the nonclinical testing and acceptance criteria for mechanical and sterilization performance of the device itself, rather than the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.
Therefore, the specific information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria and study design for an AI/ML device (e.g., sample sizes, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, training set details) cannot be extracted from this document. This document describes a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML enabled one.
However, I can extract the acceptance criteria and performance data for the device itself based on the provided "Summary of Nonclinical Testing" table.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes used for each specific test. However, it indicates that the tests were nonclinical, implying that the data provenance is likely from laboratory testing rather than human subjects or a specific country of origin for patient data. The tests are described as validations, which typically involve testing multiple units of the device under specified conditions. The provenance for the referenced standards (K201688 and K212404 for predicate devices) would apply to the methodologies but not necessarily the data for the subject device.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
Not applicable. The tests performed are nonclinical and involve validation against established industry standards and regulatory guidance, not expert interpretation of medical images or patient data. The "ground truth" for these tests is defined by the acceptance criteria set forth in the referenced standards and FDA guidance.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
Not applicable. As the tests are nonclinical validations against predefined criteria, there is no need for expert adjudication. The results are determined by whether the device's performance meets the quantitative or qualitative requirements of the standard/guidance.
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. The S.I.N. Instrument Kits are sterilization trays, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or therapeutic device. No MRMC study was conducted.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or AI system, so standalone algorithm performance is irrelevant. The tests performed are for the physical sterilization kit itself.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
The "ground truth" for these nonclinical tests is established by industry standards (e.g., ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1, ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-2, USP , ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-5, ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-12) and FDA guidance documents (e.g., "Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Settings: Validation Methods and Labeling"). These standards and guidance define the acceptable performance parameters and methodologies for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medical devices like sterilization kits. For example, for bacterial endotoxin testing, the ground truth for "Pass" is a level ≤ 20 EU/device.
8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable. This device does not involve machine learning or AI, and therefore does not have a training set.

The provided text describes the acceptance criteria and a non-clinical study to prove that the S.I.N. Instrument Kits meet these criteria for their intended use as sterilization wraps/containers.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
Test Methodology | Purpose | Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|---|
Manual Cleaning Validation (FDA Guidance: Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Settings: Validation Methods and Labeling, March 2015) | To validate that the cleaning instructions provided in the Instructions for Use appropriately clean the tray, and to ensure the sterilization cycle will be effective. | Protein assay: No color change = absence of protein residue (Sensitivity = 1 µg protein residue) | |

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
- Sample Size for Test Set:
- For Sterilization Validation, the test set involved "3 sizes of trays". The document lists 5 overall tray dimensions and 14 configurations, suggesting that not all configurations were tested for sterilization, but rather representative sizes.
- For Life Cycle / Simulated Use Life Validation, the testing involved simulating 250 use cycles.
- Specific quantities for other tests (Manual Cleaning, Bacterial Endotoxin, Biocompatibility) are not explicitly stated, but the "Pass" results imply adequate testing was performed.
- Data Provenance: The document states the manufacturer is S.I.N. - Sistema de Implante Nacional S.A. based in São Paulo, Brazil. The testing described is non-clinical, implying laboratory-based studies rather than patient data. The document does not specify if the testing was performed retrospectively or prospectively, but standard validation studies like these are typically conducted prospectively.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of those Experts:
This information is not applicable to this study. The study involves non-clinical performance testing of a medical device (sterilization instrument kits), not an AI algorithm or diagnostic device that requires human expert review to establish ground truth from patient data. The "ground truth" here is based on objective, quantifiable measures against established industry standards for sterility, cleanliness, and material properties.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
This information is not applicable as the study involves objective, non-clinical laboratory testing, not subjective human-in-the-loop performance evaluation that would require an adjudication method.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not conducted. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic devices (especially AI-assisted models) where human readers (e.g., radiologists) interpret images or data, and their performance is compared with and without AI assistance. This submission describes the non-clinical performance of a sterilization instrument kit, which does not involve human interpretation in the same way. The document explicitly states: "No clinical data were included in this submission."
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
This question is not applicable as the device is a physical instrument kit for sterilization, not an AI algorithm or software. The testing performed is to validate the physical and functional aspects of the kit itself.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
The ground truth used for this device is based on objective, quantifiable measurements and adherence to established industry standards for medical device reprocessing and biocompatibility. Specifically:
- Sterility: Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10^-6, complete inactivation of all biologic indicators.
- Cleanliness: Absence of protein residue (no color change in protein assay), Total Organic Carbon (TOC) assay results below limit of quantification.
- Endotoxin Levels: Endotoxin results ≤ 20 EU/device.
- Dryness: Weight gain after drying ≤ 3%.
- Physical integrity and functionality: Visual inspection, component dimensional fit verification, and functional closure/latch verification after simulated use cycles.
- Biocompatibility: Non-cytotoxic according to L-929 cell exposure.
These are not "expert consensus", "pathology", or "outcomes data" in the typical sense applied to diagnostic AI models.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
This information is not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI model that requires a training set of data.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
This information is not applicable as there is no AI model or training set involved.

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Neodent Instrument Kits (K171713), which are sterilization containers. The document does not describe a study that uses AI or reports on acceptance criteria and performance data in the context of an AI-powered device.
Therefore, many of the requested categories (such as sample size for test set, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication method, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set size, and ground truth for training set) are not applicable or cannot be extracted from this document, as it pertains to a physical medical device (sterilization kits) and not an AI/ML medical device.
However, I can provide available information regarding the non-clinical performance data and acceptance relevant to the sterilization kits themselves:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and the Reported Device Performance
The document does not explicitly present a "table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance" in the format typically used for AI/ML device evaluations (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity). Instead, it states that various validations were performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
Category | Acceptance Criteria (Implied by Validation) | Reported Device Performance/Validation |
---|---|---|
Cleaning | Effective removal of contaminants (microbiological, protein, hemoglobin). | Manual cleaning instructions were validated using microbiological, protein, and hemoglobin assays. |
Sterilization | Sterilant penetration and adequate drying time. | Sterilization validation (sterilant penetration and drying time) performed according to AAMI/ANSI/ISO 17665-1 and ISO TS 17665-2. |
Life Cycle/Durability | Maintenance of visual integrity, component dimensional fit, and functional closure over repeated uses. | Life cycle (simulated usage) testing performed, including visual inspection, component dimensional fit verification, and functional closure (lid-bottom latch) verification. |
Biocompatibility | Biologically safe for intended use. | Biocompatibility testing performed using methods described in AAMI/ANSI/ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-12. |
Load Weight | Maximum recommended load not to be exceeded. | GM/WS Surgical Kit Case maximum load weight is 125 grams. GM Surgical Kit Case maximum load weight is 113 grams. |
Stacking | Not to be stacked during sterilization. | Neodent Instrument Kits are recommended not to be stacked during sterilization. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. This document describes validation studies for a physical sterilization device, not an AI/ML algorithm with a "test set" of data. The studies performed were laboratory-based validations of cleaning, sterilization, durability, and biocompatibility.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth in this context would relate to the successful execution of validation protocols by qualified personnel, rather than expert consensus on diagnostic images.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
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.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): The "ground truth" for the non-clinical performance studies would be defined by the results of standardized testing methods and international standards:
* Cleaning: Successful removal of biological and chemical contaminants per established assays.
* Sterilization: Achievement of sterility assurance level (SAL) and proper drying per AAMI/ANSI/ISO 17665-1 and ISO TS 17665-2.
* Life Cycle: Maintenance of functional and structural integrity after simulated use cycles.
* Biocompatibility: Absence of adverse biological reactions per AAMI/ANSI/ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-12.
8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

Instrument kits
The instrument kits are designed to hold various dental surgical drills and tools in order to organize, steam sterilize, and protect the instruments that are sterilized by healthcare provider. The cassette is to be enclosed in an FDA cleared steam sterilizable pouch. The cassettes are not intended on their own to maintain sterility.
The cycle of sterilization is:
Pre-vacuum steam: 134 °C during 3 minutes with 16 minutes drying time
Anthogyr does not make any lumen claims for the instrument kits.
The Axiom range surgery kit represents the worst case validated load due to the number of components (34 instruments).
The cassettes are not intended to be stacked during sterilization process.
Instrument kits are cassettes used to enclose and hold surgical instruments and accessories in an organized manner during the sterilization process and subsequent storage. The cassettes by themselves do not maintain sterility. They are to be used with an FDA cleared steam sterilizable pouch.
The cassette is available in only one size (129x156x47.5 mm) marketed in different variations, including different number of tools.
The tools included in the kits are class I exempt or already have class II pre-market notification clearance.
The cassettes are reusable and made of the same materials as the predicate device (Radel R-5000 and R-5100 for tray and lid and medical grade silicone for circular brackets holding the tools).
The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for "Instrument Kits" by Anthogyr. It details performance testing related to cleaning, sterilization, and material compatibility, but it does not describe a study involving acceptance criteria for device performance in terms of clinical or algorithmic outcomes. Instead, it focuses on the device's ability to be cleaned and sterilized effectively.
Here's an analysis of the information, tailored to the request but acknowledging the different nature of this medical device (sterilization kits vs. a performance-based device like AI):
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The device is an instrument kit designed for sterilization of dental tools. The "performance" in this context relates to its ability to be effectively cleaned and sterilized, and its material safety. There are no clinical performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy for this type of device.
Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Acceptance Criteria (Implied/Direct) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Cleaning Validation | Demonstrated effectiveness of cleaning for both manual and automatic methods (as per AAMI TIR 30, AAMI TIR 12, ISO 17665). | Cleaning validations were conducted and support the effectiveness of both manual and automatic cleaning. |
Sterilization Validation | Achieves sterility when used with an FDA cleared steam sterilizable pouch, under specified pre-vacuum steam cycle (134 °C for 3 min with 16 min drying time) (as per ISO 17665). | Sterilization validation was performed on the most complete instrument kit (worst-case scenario) and validated the sterilization cycle. |
Drying Time | Adequate drying time within the sterilization cycle. | Validated in the steam sterilization report according to ISO 17665. |
Toxicological Properties | No cytotoxicity observed (as per ISO 10993-5). | Cytotoxicity tests were conducted and demonstrate safety. |
Material Compatibility | Materials are compatible with the sterilization process. | Radel technical data sheet indicates material compatibility. |
Vent/Volume Ratio | Sterilant penetration is demonstrated despite the vent/volume ratio being lower than the predicate device. | Sterilant penetration testing demonstrates safety and efficacy. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
This is not applicable in the traditional sense for this device. The "test sets" would be the actual instrument kits subjected to cleaning and sterilization validation.
- Test Set Description: The "Axiom range surgery kit" was identified as the "worst case validated load" due to having the highest number of components (34 instruments). This indicates the most challenging configuration for sterilization was tested.
- Sample Size: The document does not specify a numerical sample size (e.g., how many kits were tested, or how many cycles were performed). It states "Sterilization validation was performed [...] on the most complete instrument kit".
- Data Provenance: The studies were conducted as part of the regulatory submission process, implying they are prospective studies performed by the manufacturer/authorized labs. The manufacturer's location is France (Sallanches, France).
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This concept is not applicable here as the "ground truth" is based on objective scientific standards for cleaning, sterilization, and material safety, not expert interpretation of outputs. The standards themselves (e.g., ISO 17665, AAMI TIR 30) are established by experts in the field of medical device sterilization.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. The "ground truth" is determined by established physical and biological testing standards and results, not by human adjudication of nuanced interpretations.
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 is a physical medical device (instrument kit), not an AI algorithm or a diagnostic tool that involves human readers.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done
Not applicable. This is a physical medical device.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth is based on:
- Scientific Standards: Adherence to recognized national and international standards for cleaning (AAMI TIR 30, AAMI TIR 12), sterilization (ISO 17665), and biocompatibility (ISO 10993-5).
- Biological Endpoints: Sterilization validation typically involves sterility testing (e.g., absence of microbial growth), while cleaning validation may involve residual soil detection.
- Material Properties: Technical data sheets for the materials (Radel) providing evidence of their properties.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This is not an AI device requiring a "training set."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
Not applicable.

JUGGERLOC BONE TO BONE IMPLANTS/ BONE INSTRUMENTS/ BONE IMPLANT AND INSTRUMENT KITS
The Biomet JuggerLoc™ Bone system is intended for repair in the foot and ankle including indications for: Midfoot repair including but not limited to Lisfranc repair, ankle syndesmosis fixation (syndesmosis disruptions), and as an adjunct in connection with trauma hardware for Weber B and C ankle fractures.
The new JuggerLoc Bone to Bone system is a suture based construct intended to stabilize fractures. The construct consists of a JuggerKnot Soft Anchor with ZipLoop Technology, featuring combinations of suture and metal button fixation.
The provided text describes a medical device called the "JuggerLoc Bone to Bone System," a suture-based construct intended to stabilize fractures. The submission is a 510(k) for a new device construct, claiming substantial equivalence to predicate devices (K130033 - Biomet ToggleLoc System, K110145 - Biomet JuggerKnot Soft Anchors, K133275 - Arthrex Mini-Tightrope).
Here's an analysis of the provided information regarding acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria in a quantitative or numerical format (e.g., a specific tensile strength in Newtons, or a particular displacement under load). Instead, it refers to "Preclinical performance tests are provided to address the subject construct's strength." The general acceptance is that "Results indicate that the subject construct is substantially equivalent to legally marketed devices."
Therefore, a table cannot be fully constructed with explicit numerical criteria. However, based on the text, the performance goal is implicitly to meet or exceed the performance of the predicate device(s) in terms of strength.
Acceptance Criteria (Implicit) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Demonstrated strength and performance similar to legally marketed predicate devices. | Preclinical performance tests were conducted to address the subject construct's strength. Results indicate that the subject construct is substantially equivalent to legally marketed devices. The technological characteristics (design, dimensions, function, materials) are similar. |
Biocompatibility | A biocompatibility rationale was provided. |
No new concerns of safety or efficacy compared to predicate devices. | "No new concerns of safety or efficacy have been raised." |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document mentions "Preclinical performance tests" but does not specify the sample size used for these tests. It also does not specify the data provenance beyond stating they are "Preclinical performance tests," implying laboratory testing rather than human subject data. There is no information on country of origin or whether it was retrospective or prospective.
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)
This section is not applicable as the study described is a preclinical performance test (likely mechanical and material testing), not a study requiring human expert assessment of a test set, like in imaging or diagnostic device evaluations. There is no "ground truth" to be established by experts in the context of this submission.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This is not applicable for the same reasons as point 3. No human expert adjudication was involved in these preclinical performance tests.
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
No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic devices involving human interpretation, not for mechanical fixation systems like the JuggerLoc Bone to Bone System. There is no mention of AI assistance.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This is not applicable. The device is a physical medical implant, not an algorithm or software. Therefore, an algorithm-only standalone performance evaluation is not relevant.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
For the preclinical performance tests, the "ground truth" would be objective physical measurements of the device's mechanical properties (e.g., tensile strength, displacement, fatigue resistance), compared against established industry standards or the performance of predicate devices. The document does not specify the exact parameters measured, but implies mechanical strength testing as the basis for evaluation.
8. The sample size for the training set
This is not applicable. There is no mention of a "training set" as this device is a physical construct, not a learning algorithm or AI.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This is not applicable for the same reason as point 8.
