AirSurgN Insufflator (10030/AirSurgN)
The AirSurgN Insufflator is intended for use during diagnostic and/or therapeutic laparoscopic procedures to distend the abdominal cavity and maintain pneumoperitoneum by filling it with carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. The AirSurgN Insufflator provides user-selectable variable CO2 gas flow and pressure rates.
The AirSurgN Insufflator is intended for use during diagnostic and/or therapeutic laparoscopic procedures to distend the peritoneal cavity and maintain pneumoperitoneum by filling the cavity with carbon dioxide (CO2) gas and to evacuate surgical smoke. The device helps establish and maintain a path of entry for laparoscopic instruments. The AirSurgN Insufflator is intended to be used in a hospital setting on the adult population of 22 years and older.
The AirSurgN Insufflator is a microprocessor-based CO2 insufflator, controlling pneumatic valves, vacuum pump, and pressure sensors. User input to an LCD touchscreen graphical user interface (GUI) initiates the selected pressure, flow rate, and displays the output. Feedback control loop manages pneumoperitoneum. If smoke evacuation is desired, the user can activate this vacuum function for a fixed time period before shutting off automatically.
The device is reusable. It is not intended to be used in the sterile field and cannot be sterilized.
The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the AirSurgN Insufflator mentions performance testing in general terms but does not include specific acceptance criteria or detailed study results for each test. For medical devices like insufflators, performance testing typically involves evaluating aspects such as pressure accuracy, flow rate stability, volume delivery, and response to various physiological conditions.
Here's an interpretation based on the standard information expected for such a clearance, noting that the specific numerical data and detailed methodology for the "acceptance criteria" and "reported device performance" are not explicitly present in the provided document. The document primarily focuses on what tests were done and that they met the criteria, without listing the criteria themselves or the exact results.
Description of Acceptance Criteria and Study Proving Device Meets Criteria
The AirSurgN Insufflator's performance was evaluated through a series of non-clinical/bench tests to demonstrate its safety and substantial equivalence to the predicate device (PNEUMOCLEAR, K170784). While the document states that "The results met the predetermined acceptance criteria," it does not explicitly list these criteria or the numerical results for the AirSurgN Insufflator. However, based on the types of tests conducted, we can infer the categories of acceptance criteria.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Given the nature of an insufflator, the acceptance criteria would typically revolve around precision, accuracy, and stability of gas delivery and pressure control when compared to specified standards or the predicate device.
Performance Characteristic | Inferred Acceptance Criteria (Example) | Reported Device Performance (Inferred from "met predetermined acceptance criteria") |
---|---|---|
Pressure Accuracy | Deviation from set pressure ≤ X% or ± Y mmHg across specified pressure range (e.g., 1-30 mmHg), comparable to predicate. | Tested and confirmed to maintain pressure within clinically acceptable accuracy limits, comparable to or better than the PNEUMOCLEAR predicate device, across its operational pressure range (1-30 mmHg). |
Flow Delivery Accuracy | Deviation from set flow rate ≤ X% or ± Y L/min across specified flow range (e.g., 1-50 L/min), comparable to predicate. | Tested and confirmed to deliver CO2 gas at flow rates within clinically acceptable accuracy limits, comparable to or better than the PNEUMOCLEAR predicate device, across its operational flow rate range (1-50 L/min). |

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The primary clinical test set information is from a prospective, multi-center, single-arm confirmatory clinical investigation.
- Sample Size: 53 subjects.
- General Surgery: 20 subjects
- Thoracic: 6 subjects
- Urology: 6 subjects
- Gynecology: 21 subjects
- Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin. Given the FDA submission, it is likely the data was collected in the United States, but this is not explicitly confirmed. The study was prospective, as stated.
- Bench and Pre-clinical studies: Involved animal (canine or porcine) and cadaver models, but specific sample sizes for these are not detailed.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
The document does not explicitly provide details on the number or qualifications of experts used to establish a "ground truth" for the clinical test set in the sense of independent adjudication of outcomes.
For the pre-clinical surgical equivalence studies, veterinary pathologists were involved in the review of histology from excised tissue. Their specific qualifications (e.g., years of experience) are not mentioned.
For the human factors study, Surgeon and OR Staff participants were observed, implying their expertise was leveraged, but they were the users being studied, not necessarily establishing a separate "ground truth".
The clinical investigation involved surgeons with a range of experience performing procedures, and outcomes were tracked. The document doesn't indicate a separate panel of experts for post-hoc ground truth establishment for clinical events. Adverse events, readmissions, etc., would typically be derived directly from patient records and assessed by the study investigators/clinicians.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not describe a formal adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1 consensus) for establishing ground truth for the clinical outcomes. Adverse events, readmissions, surgeries, etc., appear to be directly measured results from the clinical investigation. The document mentions "clinical assessments" and "qualitative comparison" to retrospective data, suggesting a direct observation and comparison approach rather than a multi-expert adjudication of each case for a specific "ground truth."
5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs Without AI Assistance
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study involving human readers and AI assistance was not done based on the provided text. The device described, the da Vinci Surgical System, Insufflator, and Endoscope Tray, are surgical tools, not AI-driven diagnostic or assistive technologies that would typically involve "human readers" to interpret data (like images) with or without AI assistance. The clinical study compares the new system to a predicate system (IS4000) based on surgical outcomes.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
This question is not applicable to the device described. The da Vinci Surgical System is an instrument control system that assists surgeons; it is not a standalone algorithm performing tasks independently. While it is software-controlled, its performance is always in conjunction with a human surgeon. Bench testing and pre-clinical studies evaluate the device's technical performance and safety aspects without direct human patient involvement, which could be considered "standalone" in that context, but this isn't an "algorithm-only" performance evaluation.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Clinical Investigation: Clinical outcomes (e.g., adverse events, conversions, deaths, readmissions, re-operations) observed directly from patient follow-up data. The identified issue with the force feedback needle driver in specific procedures resulting in vaginal bleeding was likely a direct observation within the study data.
- Pre-clinical Studies: Veterinary pathologists' review of histology from excised tissue to assess surgical safety and performance in animal models.
- Bench Testing: Engineering measurements, mechanical and functional verification against design input requirements.
- Human Factors: Observation of user performance and subjective feedback from surgeons and OR staff.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not refer to a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI models being developed for the device's core functionality. The da Vinci Surgical System as described is a robotic surgical platform, not an AI diagnostic or predictive tool that would undergo a typical machine learning training and testing paradigm. "Training set" might refer to data used during software development, but it's not specified.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
As there is no explicit mention of an "AI training set" for the device's core surgical assistance function, the method for establishing its ground truth is not provided. Any software development would rely on traditional software verification and validation processes against specified requirements, rather than a machine learning ground truth establishment.

Insufflator (OPTO-IFL1000) is a CO2 insufflation device for creating and maintaining a pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic examinations and operations. It is capable of establishing the surgical field of view and operating space. CO2 gas can be injected into abdominal cavity by the device, and the gas separates the abdominal wall from the internal organs of the abdominal cavity, forming a space for the operation and visual field. The device is to be used with the following insufflation tubes:
-
- OPTO-T1000H (with heating function)
-
- OPTO-T1000 (without heating function)
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the Insufflator (OPTO-IFL1000) from Guangdong OptoMedic Technologies, Inc. It describes the device, its indications for use, and a comparison to a predicate device. However, it does not contain the detailed information required to answer many of the specific questions about the device's acceptance criteria and the study proving it meets those criteria, particularly for an AI/ML-based medical device.
The document states: "Performance testing were also conducted and demonstrate that the proposed system performs according to specifications and functions as intended. And the test result shows that the preset acceptance criteria are met." It then lists several performance tests, but it does not specify what those "preset acceptance criteria" are numerically, nor does it provide the reported device performance values against these criteria. Furthermore, it does not describe a study involving "human readers" or "AI assistance," as this is an insufflator, not an imaging analysis AI.
Therefore, many of the questions cannot be answered from the provided text. I will answer what is available and indicate where information is missing.
Acceptance Criteria and Study for Insufflator (OPTO-IFL1000)
Based on the provided document, the device is an Insufflator (OPTO-IFL1000), which is a physical medical device designed to create and maintain pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic procedures, not an AI/ML-based diagnostic or imaging device. Therefore, questions related to AI performance, human readers, ground truth establishment by experts, and training/test set sample sizes for AI models are not applicable to the information presented for this specific device.
The document discusses "Performance data" and lists various tests conducted to verify the device met all design specifications and is substantially equivalent to a predicate device. The "acceptance criteria" are generally implied to be satisfaction of these test specifications and compliance with relevant standards.
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document lists performance tests but does not provide a table with specific numerical acceptance criteria or the numerically reported device performance for these tests. It only states that "the preset acceptance criteria are met."
Below is a table of the performance tests mentioned, with the understanding that specific numerical criteria and results are not detailed in the provided text.
Performance Test Item | Acceptance Criteria (Not Detailed) | Reported Device Performance (Not Detailed) |
---|---|---|
1. Gas Supply Indication | Met specifications | Met specifications |
2. Accuracy of the Pressure | Met specifications | Met specifications |
3. Accuracy of the Pressure-Under Leak Condition (Continuous leakage compensation testing) | Met specifications | Met specifications |
4. Overpressure Alarm | Alarm triggers as specified (e.g., >4 mmHg beyond nominal) | Alarm triggers as specified |
5. Overpressure Reduction | System reduces pressure effectively as specified | System reduces pressure effectively |
6. Under-pressure Replenishment (Transient leakage compensation testing) | System replenishes gas effectively as specified | System replenishes gas effectively |
7. Accuracy of the Flow | Met specifications | Met specifications |
8. Heating Function | Functions within specified temperature range | Functions within specified range |
9. Overheating Alarm | Alarm triggers as specified (e.g., at >41°C) | Alarm triggers as specified |
10. Accuracy of Gas Consumption Display | Met specifications | Met specifications |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
For a physical device like an insufflator, "test set" and "data provenance" (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) are typically not relevant in the same way they are for AI/ML models using patient data. The "test set" would refer to the specific Insufflator (OPTO-IFL1000) unit(s) used for the described performance and safety testing. The document does not specify the number of units tested. The provenance of the testing itself is implied to be conducted by the manufacturer, Guangdong OptoMedic Technologies, Inc., in China.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
This question is applicable to AI/ML devices that interpret data (e.g., medical images) where expert consensus is used to establish ground truth. For a physical device like an insufflator, "ground truth" pertains to its functional performance characteristics, which are measured using validated test methods and equipment, not by human expert interpretation of device output in the same way. Therefore, this information is not applicable and not provided.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable for a physical device performance test.
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 insufflator, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm. Its performance is inherent to its physical and software functionality.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
For this physical device, "ground truth" would be established by:
- Compliance with recognized standards: Such as ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-8, AAMI TIR 30, AAMI TIR 12.
- Engineering specifications and measurements: Direct measurement of pressure, flow, temperature, alarm triggers, etc., against predefined engineering tolerances and clinical requirements.
- Software verification and validation: Testing to ensure the software functions as intended to control the device and its safety features.
The document states that "The software verification and validation testing were conducted and the test results demonstrated the software function met the requirements. The software for this device was considered a 'Major' level of concern." This indicates that software functionality, which dictates much of the device's "ground truth" operation, was rigorously tested.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set of data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable.

The insufflator is a microprocessor-controlled CO2 insufflator that consists of the following major components and features: housing, power supply, pressure reducers, venting system, fluid sensor, gas heater, various setting keys and display elements. The insufflator is not intended to enter the field and cannot be sterilized. The pneumoperitoneum tube shall be cleaned, disinfected, and sterilized prior to subsequent use.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for an Insufflator (K222812), intended to facilitate the use of a laparoscope by distending the peritoneal cavity with gas. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K030837) and a reference device (K153513) through non-clinical performance testing.
Based on the provided information, here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study details:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The document doesn't explicitly present a table of "acceptance criteria" for specific performance metrics in a pass/fail format alongside the device's reported performance. Instead, it lists the standards and the types of comparative non-clinical performance testing performed, implying that meeting these standards and showing comparable performance to the predicate device would be the acceptance criteria.
However, we can infer some criteria from the "General Comparison" table (Table 2) and the "Performance Specifications" in Table 3 (which is incomplete in the provided text).
Aspect / Category | Acceptance Criteria (Implied / Inferred) | Reported Device Performance (Subject Device K222812) | Comments / Comparison to Predicate |
---|---|---|---|
Set Pressure Range | Pediatric mode: 1-10mmHg; Adult/Bariatric: 1-30mmHg (matching reference device) | Pediatric mode: 1-10mmHg; Adult and bariatric mode: 1-30mmHg | Different from predicate (1-30mmHg) but aligns with capabilities of the reference device. |
Accuracy of Pressure | ≤ ± 2mmHg (comparable to predicate's ±1mmHg or within acceptable limits) | ± 2mmHg | Different from predicate (±1mmHg). This difference is not stated to raise safety concerns. |
Set Gas Flow Range | 1-50L/min (matching reference device) | 1-50L/min | Different from predicate (1-40L/min) but matches reference device. |
Overpressure Warning | Warning initiated when actual pressure is >3mmHg above nominal pressure | When actual pressure is >3mmHg above nominal pressure, the overpressure warning is initiated | Different from predicate (>4mmHg). Subject device has a tighter warning threshold. |
Gas Supply Warning | Warning when cylinder 41°C | When the gas temperature is greater than 41°C, the gas injection will be interrupted, device warning initiated. | Different from predicate (>42°C). Subject device has a slightly lower warning threshold. |
Electrical Safety | Comply with IEC 60601-1 | Comply with IEC 60601-1 | Same as predicate and reference device. |
EMC | Comply with IEC 60601-1-2 | Comply with IEC 60601-1-2 | Same as predicate and reference device. |
Software V&V | In accordance with relevant FDA guidance | Test results demonstrated software function met requirements | Performed for Major Level of Concern software. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
The document mentions "non clinical tests were conducted" and "comparative performance testing was also conducted on the subject and predicate devices." However, it does not specify the sample sizes used for these tests. The tests are non-clinical, meaning they involve lab testing of the devices themselves, not patient data. Therefore, questions of country of origin of data or retrospective/prospective are not applicable for this non-clinical submission.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:
This information is not applicable as the studies are entirely non-clinical performance and safety tests of a medical device (insufflator). There is no "ground truth" to be established by clinical experts for a test set in the context of this 510(k) submission.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
This information is not applicable for the same reason as above. Non-clinical engineering tests do not involve expert adjudication.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The submission is for a medical device (insufflator) and relies on non-clinical performance and safety testing. There are no human readers or cases involved in the presented studies.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
This question is not applicable in the traditional sense for this device. The device is hardware with embedded software, not an AI algorithm performing diagnostic or therapeutic functions needing standalone performance evaluation in the context of AI/ML. The software verification and validation were performed as an integral part of the device's functionality.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
As the studies are non-clinical performance tests, the "ground truth" would be established by:
- Engineering specifications and standards: Adherence to standards like IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ASTM D4169, AAMI TIR 30, AAMI TIR 12, ISO 15883-2, ISO 17665-1, ISO 14971, and IEC 60601-2-18.
- Expected physical and functional performance: Measured parameters like flow rate, pressure accuracy, temperature, and warning thresholds are compared against design specifications and the performance of the predicate device.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
This information is not applicable. The device is an insufflator, not a machine learning or AI model that requires a training set of data. The software within the device is likely deterministic control software, subject to standard software verification and validation, not machine learning model training.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:
This information is not applicable as there is no training set mentioned or implied for this device.

AP50/30 Insufflator with Insuflow Port
The AP50/30 Insufflator is a CO2 insufflator intended for use during diagnostic and/or therapeutic endoscopic procedures to distend a cavity by filling it with gas. The Standard/High Flow, Pediatric operating modes of the device are indicated to fill and distend a peritoneal cavity with gas during a laparoscopic procedure. The Pediatric operating mode is specifically indicated for pediatric laparoscopic procedures. The Vessel Harvesting mode is indicated for use during endoscopic vessel harvesting procedures to create a cavity along the saphenous vein or radial artery. The TAMIS operating mode is indicated to fill and distend the rectum and colon using CO2 gas during trans and minimal invasive surgery.
The Insuflow® Port (5 mm, 8 mm, 10mm and 12mm) devices have applications in thoracic, abdominal and gynecologic minimally invasive endoscopic surgical procedures to establish a path of entry for endoscopic instruments and to heat, humidify, filter and introduce a CO2 gas stream for insufflation of the surgical cavity.
The Lexion AP50/30 Insufflator is a microprocessor-controlled CO2 (carbon dioxide) insufflator with multiple operating modes. The insufflator instrumentation is intended for hospital use for Standard/High Flow, Pediatric, and Bariatric laparoscopic procedures used in conjunction with a laparoscope to fill and distend a peritoneal cavity with gas; for trans anal minimal invasive surgery (TAMIS) to fill and distend the rectum and colon using CO2 gas; and for Vessel Harvesting procedures used to create a cavity along the saphenous vein and/or the radial artery during an endoscopic vessel harvesting procedure.
The device incorporates the following major components and features: a metal housing, a world power supply, pressure reducers, a venting system, a gas heater control and a touch screen user interface with various settings and display elements. The software operation includes system checks, user interface, setting adjustments, warning/error messages and service info. The device is equipped with a continuous pressure measurement mode that controls the conformity of the actual pressure in the peritoneal or extraperitoneal cavity with the pre-set nominal pressure. The AP50/30 Insufflator is designed with several alarms/warnings to inform the operator in case of an overpressure or other malfunctions. The device is to be used with specially designed singleuse tubing sets, the Insuflow® Port, in order to utilize the full capabilities of continuous pressure measurement and gas heating and humidification. (The insufflator can also accept other tubing sets for gas deliver only.)
The Insuflow® Port (5, 8, 10, 12 mm) devices are gas conditioning/access port devices that attach to the outlet of the AP50/30 Insufflator and are designed to warm and humidify the CO2 gas stream prior to insufflation via an integral path of entry device during minimally invasive surgery. The Insuflow® Port consists of an ethylene oxide sterilized, disposable single use tubing set and a path of entry access port device which contains the pressure sensors, a filter, and gas heater/humidifier. The access port device materials are intended for patient contact of less than 24 hours. The Insuflow® Port is connected to the AP50/30 Insufflator via a plug connector cable, which controls the pressure sensing, gas heating and safety circuits for the system. Regulated CO2 gas from the AP50/30 Insufflator flows into the Insuflow® Port, through the in-line filter, continues along the tubing to enter the path of entry access device that contains the heating element and humidification media, and through the path of entry access device lumen for delivery into the patient's surgical cavity.
The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a medical device, the AP50/30 Insufflator with Insuflow® Port. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, particularly for a newly added operating mode (TAMIS).
Important Note: This document describes the acceptance criteria and study for a hardware medical device (insufflator), not an AI/ML-based device. Therefore, many of the requested fields related to AI/ML (e.g., ground truth establishment for training set, MRMC study, sample size for training set, number of experts for ground truth) are not applicable to this type of medical device submission. The study described is an engineering performance verification and validation.
Here's a breakdown based on the provided text, addressing the applicable criteria for this device:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for AP50/30 Insufflator with Insuflow® Port (TAMIS Mode)

The acceptance criteria are implicit in matching the performance specifications of the predicate devices for existing modes and ensuring the new TAMIS mode meets appropriate performance targets comparable to a predicate device.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The acceptance criteria are generally established by matching or demonstrating comparable performance to the predicate devices, particularly the PNEUMOCLEAR Insufflator (K170784) for the TAMIS mode. The tables provided in the document serve as the performance data compare to historical predicate performance.
Key Performance Specs | AP50/30 Insufflator with TAMIS (Reported Performance) | AP50/30 Insufflator K170799 (Primary Predicate) | PNEUMOCLEAR K170784 (Secondary Predicate - for TAMIS) | Acceptance Criteria (Implicit from Predicate) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Insufflator Indications for Use | Includes TAMIS mode to fill and distend rectum and colon using CO2 gas during trans anal minimal invasive surgery, in addition to existing modes. | Standard/High Flow, Pediatric, Bariatric, Vessel Harvesting. | Standard, High Flow/Bariatric, Pediatric, Advanced Flow, Vessel Harvest, and TAMIS mode for rectum and colon distention. | Device's TAMIS indication should match the secondary predicate. Other indications should match the primary predicate. |

Maximum Supply Pressure (TAMIS) | 65 mmHg in TAMIS mode | N/A (No TAMIS mode) | 65 mmHg in TAMIS mode | Max supply pressure for TAMIS should be 65 mmHg, matching secondary predicate. |
Other Existing Modes (Flow, Pressure, Max Pressure, Supply Pressure, Adjustable Values, Pneumo Pressure Control, User Interface, Power, Error Warnings, Gas Conditioning, Tubing Sets) | Match previous AP50/30 performance. | Specified values for each mode. | Specified values for each mode. | Must remain consistent with the primary predicate. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: The document refers to "comparative bench testing" and "design verification testing." It does not specify a numerical sample size in terms of "units tested" or "number of unique test scenarios." This type of engineering testing typically involves a set number of test runs or units to demonstrate specifications are met across operational ranges and conditions.
- Data Provenance: The testing was "performed to demonstrate that the performance of the proposed AP50/30 Insufflator is substantially equivalent to that of the predicate devices." This implies that the data is prospective data generated from testing of the new device intended for submission. The location of testing is not specified, but it would have been conducted by the manufacturer (Lexion Medical LLC) or a contracted test facility.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
- N/A. For a hardware medical device like an insufflator, "ground truth" as it relates to expert consensus on images or clinical outcomes is not applicable. The device's performance is objectively measured against engineering specifications (e.g., flow rate, pressure accuracy, alarm function). Verification and validation testing is conducted by engineers and technicians against established specifications.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- N/A. Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are relevant for subjective assessments, typically in image interpretation or clinical trial endpoints that require expert consensus. For an insufflator, performance is measured against objective, quantifiable engineering specifications.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done
- N/A. MRMC studies are specific to evaluating the diagnostic performance of imaging devices or algorithms, usually involving human readers interpreting images. This is a hardware device for surgical procedures (insufflation), not an imaging or diagnostic AI/ML device.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- N/A. This is not an AI/ML algorithm. The device has software that controls its functions, which was validated ("The software used in the AP50/30 Insufflator was determined to have a major level of concern, and was developed and successfully validated in accordance with the FDA guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices," issued May 11, 2005."). This software validation assesses the correct functioning of the control algorithms, which operates autonomously to maintain pressure and flow.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Engineering Specifications / Predicate Device Performance: The "ground truth" for this device's performance is its ability to meet established engineering specifications (e.g., precise control of gas pressure and flow, accurate alarm triggers) and to perform comparably to its legally marketed predicate devices, particularly for the added TAMIS mode. The performance is quantified through direct physical measurements during bench testing.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- N/A. This is not an AI/ML device; there is no "training set." The software is designed and programmed based on engineering principles and requirements, not trained on data.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
- N/A. As there is no training set for an AI/ML model, this question is not applicable. The software ground truth is derived from design requirements and engineering specifications documented during the device development process.
In summary, the provided document details the regulatory submission for a hardware medical device with specific performance characteristics. The "acceptance criteria" revolve around demonstrating that the modified device (with a new operating mode) performs comparably to its predicates and meets all relevant safety and performance standards. The "study" proving this involves comprehensive bench testing and software validation against objective engineering specifications. The concepts of AI/ML-specific evaluations (like training sets, data provenance for AI models, MRMC studies, or multi-expert adjudication for diagnostic ground truth) do not apply to this type of device submission.
