2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
The document does not specify a "test set" in the context of clinical data or patient outcomes. The performance evaluation is based on engineering and safety testing against recognized standards. Therefore, information regarding sample size and data provenance for a test set in the traditional sense (e.g., patient data) is not applicable here. The provenance for the device is the manufacturing facility in China (EasyMed Instruments Co Ltd).
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
This information is not applicable. The evaluation framework is based on compliance with established engineering and safety standards, and a comparison to a predicate device. There is no mention of human expert-established "ground truth" for the performance tests conducted on the device's technical specifications.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
This information is not applicable. As there is no clinical "test set" requiring human interpretation or decision-making, an adjudication method for such a set is not relevant.
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
An MRMC study is relevant for evaluating the performance of AI-assisted diagnostic or decision-making systems. The Perfect EMS is an electrical stimulator for pain relief and muscle performance, not an AI diagnostic tool. Therefore, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study is not applicable and was not reported.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
The Perfect EMS is a physical medical device, not a software algorithm. Therefore, "standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance)" is not applicable. Performance was assessed by measuring the device's electrical output and adherence to safety standards.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
The "ground truth" in this context is the pre-defined acceptance criteria set by recognized safety and performance standards (e.g., ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-11, IEC 60601-2-10, IEC 62304, ISO 10993-1) and the technical specifications of the legally marketed predicate device (EM49-2 K190347). The device's performance was measured against these established quantitative parameters and qualitative design characteristics.
8. The sample size for the training set
This information is not applicable. The Perfect EMS is a hardware device; it does not explicitly mention any machine learning or AI components that would require a "training set" for an algorithm.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This information is not applicable for the same reason as point 8. There is no mention of a training set or AI algorithm in this context.
