The LimFlow V-Ceiver is intended for use in the cardiovascular system to manipulate and retrieve guidewires specified in the IFU.

The LimFlow V-Ceiver is a percutaneous snaring device with a luer on the proximal end and a snaring basket at the distal end. The basket is composed of nitinol for shape memory and visibility with radiopaque markers on either end of the basket for added visibility. The coaxial sheathing system is used to re-constrain the basket once a guide wire is captured.

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain any information about acceptance criteria for a device's performance based on image analysis, nor does it describe a study that proves a device meets such criteria.

The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the LimFlow V-Ceiver, which is an embolectomy catheter, a physical medical device. The clearance is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (LimFlow V-Ceiver K222083) through non-clinical performance tests, biocompatibility, sterilization, and packaging validation.

The "Indications for Use" explicitly state: "The LimFlow V-Ceiver is intended for use in the cardiovascular system to manipulate and retrieve guidewires specified in the IFU." This indicates it's a device for physical manipulation within the body, not an imaging or AI-based diagnostic tool.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance related to image analysis.
2. Sample size, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication methods for a test set, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or ground truth types related to an AI/imaging device.
3. Information on training sets or their ground truth establishment for an AI/imaging device.

The provided text pertains to the regulatory clearance of a physical medical device.

The LimFlow V-Ceiver™ is intended for use in the cardiovascular system to manipulate and retrieve guidewires specified in the IFU.

The LimFlow V-Ceiver consists of an intravascular catheter which incorporates a nitinol basket (the "Snare") at its distal tip. The nitinol basket has an outer diameter of 6 mm. The catheter has a built-in coaxial sheathing system and incorporates radiopaque markers at the distal tip on either end of the basket for added visibility. The catheter if compatible with 4 Fr introducer sheaths and has a working length of 100 cm.

The provided text describes the LimFlow V-Ceiver, an embolectomy catheter, and its non-clinical performance tests to establish substantial equivalence with a predicate device. It does not contain information about a study involving human readers, AI assistance, or related ground truth evaluations that would typically be associated with an AI/ML device.

However, I can extract the information related to the device's acceptance criteria and the studies performed to meet these criteria, as described in the context of a medical device submission.

Here's a summary of the available information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document outlines several performance tests conducted for the LimFlow V-Ceiver, each with a statement of meeting predetermined acceptance criteria. Specific quantitative acceptance criteria are not provided in detail, but the outcomes are stated as successful.

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

• Test Set (Non-clinical Performance Tests): The document does not specify exact sample sizes for each mechanical or biocompatibility test. It mentions that "a series of testing was conducted" and that "the below were shown to meet the acceptance criteria." The tests are typically conducted on multiple units or samples to ensure reproducibility and statistical significance, but specific numbers are not provided.
• Test Set (Pre-clinical Study): "An acute swine model" was used. The specific number of animals is not provided.
• Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but these are laboratory and animal model studies, not human patient data from a specific country.

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

This information is not applicable to the provided context. The studies described are non-clinical performance and pre-clinical animal studies, which do not involve expert human readers establishing ground truth in the way described for AI/ML performance evaluation studies.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

Not applicable for the non-clinical and pre-clinical studies described.

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:

Not applicable. This document describes the testing of a physical medical device (embolectomy catheter), not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive tool for 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:

For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" is defined by established engineering and biological standards (e.g., ISO 10555-1, ISO 10993 series) and predetermined acceptance criteria derived from these standards and clinical relevance.

For the pre-clinical swine model, the "ground truth" for performance would be the observable success of guidewire snaring and the observed thrombogenicity outcomes within the animal model, judged against pre-defined acceptable ranges.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

Not applicable. There is no mention of a training set as this is not an AI/ML device.

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

Not applicable.
