    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device (Freedom60 Infusion Pump and associated components). It describes the device, its intended use, and the non-clinical testing performed to establish substantial equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not contain information about the specific acceptance criteria, reported device performance in a table, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert qualifications, ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, or standalone algorithm performance, as these typically relate to AI/ML device submissions.

    The document refers to mechanical/fluidic performance testing for an infusion pump, not an AI/ML diagnostic system. Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information regarding AI/ML device acceptance criteria and study details from this document.

    For context, I will outline the information that would be present if this were an AI/ML device submission, and then explain why it's not applicable here based on the provided text.

    Information NOT available in the provided document (as it's not an AI/ML device):

    1. Table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance: This document refers to flow rate verification, reliability/use life verification, dose accuracy, and fitment. It does not provide a table with specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., minimum sensitivity, specificity) and corresponding achieved performance metrics (e.g., actual sensitivity, specificity values), which are common for AI/ML diagnostic devices.
    2. Sample sizes used for the test set and data provenance: The document mentions "non-clinical testing" and "verification and validation testing" but does not specify sample sizes in terms of patient cohorts or image sets, nor does it mention data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective), as would be detailed for AI/ML models.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and their qualifications: This is irrelevant here because the device is a mechanical infusion pump. Ground truth for an AI/ML diagnostic device usually involves expert annotations (e.g., radiologists, pathologists).
    4. Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable, as there's no diagnostic ground truth being established by experts.
    5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, and its effect size: Not applicable, as this is a mechanical device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. MRMC studies evaluate the impact of AI on human reader performance.
    6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable, as there is no standalone AI algorithm.
    7. The type of ground truth used: For this device, the "ground truth" would be established through engineering measurements of flow rates, dose accuracy, and mechanical reliability against design specifications, not clinical outcomes, pathology, or expert consensus on medical images/data.
    8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as this describes a device that undergoes physical manufacturing and testing based on engineering principles, not an AI/ML model that is trained on a dataset.
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable for the same reason as above.

    What the document does state about testing:

    The "Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions" section (Page 7) states:

    • Testing Performed:
      • Flow rate verification
      • Reliability/use life verification
      • Dose accuracy and fitment
      • Human factors validation (per IEC 62366-1 and FDA Guidance)
    • Clinical Testing: "Clinical testing is not applicable for this submission." This further confirms it's not an AI/ML diagnostic.
    • Conclusion: "All verification and validation testing was successfully completed. The non-clinical testing performed demonstrates that the device is as safe and effective as the legally marketed predicate device meets that the device meets the performance requirements set out as part of the design control process."

    In summary, the provided document details the regulatory clearance of a mechanical infusion system, not an AI/ML-driven device. Therefore, the specific acceptance criteria and study details relevant to AI/ML performance (such as sensitivity, specificity, expert ground truth, MRMC studies) are not present and cannot be extracted.

    AI/ML Overview

    This 510(k) summary describes a medical device, the Vapotherm Precision Flow™, which is a respiratory gas humidifier. It is not an AI/ML powered device, therefore, many of the requested categories related to AI performance, ground truth, and expert evaluation are not applicable.

    Here's an analysis of the provided text based on your request, highlighting the non-applicability of AI/ML specific criteria:

    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Non-AI/ML Device)

    The Vapotherm Precision Flow™ is cleared based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, primarily through non-clinical performance data (testing) and a comparison of its technological characteristics to existing devices. The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly that the device performs its intended functions (humidifying and blending medical gases) safely and effectively, and that these performance characteristics are comparable to legally marketed predicate devices without raising new safety or effectiveness concerns.

    Since this is not an AI/ML device, performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, or AUC are not applicable or reported in this 510(k) summary. Instead, the performance is demonstrated through various engineering, safety, and biocompatibility tests.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
    Biocompatibility: No adverse biological reactions.Biocompatibility Tests (LLNA, Intracutaneous Reactivity, MEM Elution): Performed, implying acceptable results (otherwise it wouldn't be marketed).

    Software Functionality: Verified and validated.Ximedica TRP 1097, TRP 1071 (Black Box), Unit Test Case Listing - 3VAP1004/TRP 1092 (White Box): Software verified and validated in accordance with applicable FDA guidance.
    Thermal Stability: Maintains temperature regulation.Thermal Stability: Performed, indicating proper temperature control.
    Blender Accuracy: Maintains precise air/oxygen mixture.Blender Comparison Performance: Performed, indicating comparable performance to predicate blenders, assuring integrity of the precise air/oxygen mixture via an integral oxygen analyzer.
    Substantial Equivalence: Comparable to predicate devices.The device has the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate devices. Performance data demonstrate it is as safe and effective as the predicate devices, with minor differences raising no new issues.

    Non-Applicable (N/A) for AI/ML Specific Questions:

    Given that K072845 describes a humidifier, not an AI/ML-powered device, the following categories are not applicable. The submission process for such a device focuses on engineering specifications, safety testing, and performance validation against established standards and predicate devices, rather than statistical performance against a ground truth dataset.

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: N/A (Not an AI/ML device, no "test set" in the context of an algorithm's classification/prediction performance). Testing involved physical hardware, software, and biological compatibility, not a data-driven test set.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: N/A (Not an AI/ML device, no ground truth established by experts for algorithmic performance).

    4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: N/A (Not an AI/ML device, no adjudication of algorithm outputs).

    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: N/A (Not an AI/ML device. No human-in-the-loop AI assistance involved).

    6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: N/A (Not an AI/ML device, no standalone algorithm performance to evaluate).

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): N/A (Not an AI/ML device). The "ground truth" for this device relates to physical measurements meeting specifications (e.g., oxygen percentage, temperature, bacterial counts being zero).

    8. The sample size for the training set: N/A (Not an AI/ML device, no "training set"). Software verification and validation are described, but this refers to traditional software engineering processes, not machine learning model training.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: N/A (Not an AI/ML device, no "training set" or ground truth in the ML context).

    PRECISION FLOW OSV II

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

    The Precision Flow OSV II is an implantable system used in the treatment of patients with hydrocephalus, to shunt CSF from the ventricles to the peritoneal cavity or other appropriate drainage site such as the heart's right atrium.

    Device Description

    The Orbis Sigma Valve and the Precision Flow OSV IT are both variable resistance valves that manuain a drainage rate close to the rate of CSF secretion (~ 20 ml/h) within the physiological range of intracranial pressure. The mechanism incorporates a safety pressure relief mode to prevent accidental intracranial hypertension. The principle of operation consists of a flow restricting diaphragm, a seat, and a notched pln. The diaphragm, held between two polysulfone parts of the casing, reacts to variations in pressure. A synthetic ruby seat is inserted into the center of the diaphragm. The clearance between the seat aperture and the notched synthetic ruby nin varies depending on seat movements along the pin as pressure varies. Precision Flow OSV II and Orbis Sigma Valve are characterized by the same three stages of operation, that are defined below : Stage / - Low Differential Pressure (DP), Stage II - Flow Regulation, Stage III - Pressure Rellef Mode.

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

    This submission does not describe a clinical study with a "test set" in the sense of a new patient cohort for the Precision Flow OSV II. Instead, it relies on the established performance of its predicate, the Orbis Sigma Valve.

    • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable. The "test" is a comparison to the established specifications of the predicate device, not an independent clinical trial on a new set of patients for the Precision Flow OSV II.
    • Data Provenance: The hydrodynamic specifications and operating principles are derived from the Orbis Sigma Valve. The document references a clinical study and use over more than seven years validating the concept for the Orbis Sigma Valve (Sainte Rose, Hooven MD, Hirsch JF: A new approach in the treatment of hydrocephalus. J Neurosurg. 86:213-226, 1987). This suggests retrospective data from clinical use of the predicate, likely from various international locations where the device was marketed.

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

    • Number of Experts: Not explicitly stated for establishing "ground truth" for the new device.
    • Qualifications of Experts: The "concept of the flow regulation linked to the OSV hydrodynamic specifications has been developed by Pr C. Sainte Rose M.D." This indicates that the initial specifications were developed by a medical professional. For the 510(k) submission, FDA reviewers (Celia M. Witten, Ph.D., M.D., Director, Division of General and Restorative Devices, Office of Device Evaluation) acted as experts in reviewing the claim of substantial equivalence.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable, as there was no "test set" requiring adjudication in the context of a new clinical study for the Precision Flow OSV II. The device's performance is asserted as identical to, and therefore meeting the established performance of, its predicate.

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

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is a physical medical implant (shunt), not an imaging or diagnostic AI tool that would typically involve a multi-reader study. The evaluation focuses on physical and hydrodynamic equivalence.

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

    Not applicable. This device is a physical CNS shunt system and does not involve an algorithm or AI.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    • The "ground truth" for the predicate device's performance was established through:
      • Expert Consensus/Development: The concept developed by Pr C. Sainte Rose M.D.
      • Clinical Studies and Use: "Validated by clinical studies and use over more than seven years" (for the predicate Orbis Sigma Valve). This implies outcomes data from a real-world patient population.
    • For the Precision Flow OSV II, the ground truth is that its design, materials, manufacturing methods, and performance specifications are identical/equivalent to this established predicate.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. There is no training set in the context of machine learning or AI, as this is a physical medical device. The "training" for its design and performance would be the extensive research, development, and clinical validation conducted for its predicate device over several years.

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

    Not applicable, as there is no "training set" in the AI sense. The "ground truth" for the predicate device's efficacy and performance, which forms the basis for demonstrating equivalence for the Precision Flow OSV II, was established through a combination of:

    • Expert Design and Theoretical Principles: Pr C. Sainte Rose M.D.'s development of the flow regulation concept and hydrodynamic specifications.
    • Clinical Validation: "Clinical studies and use over more than seven years" for the predicate Orbis Sigma Valve, which would have involved patient outcomes data to confirm the device's intended therapeutic effect and performance in vivo.
