For safe and reliable soft tissue approximation, wound closure and ligation.
General soft tissue approximation and/or ligation including use in Cardiovascular, Opthalmic, and Neurological procedures.
AMERICAN SUTURE™ Non-Absorbable Surgical Sutures with/without Needle are Non-Pyrogenic devices used for safe and reliable soft tissue approximation, wound closure, and ligation. American Sutures are made of Silk, Nylon, Polypropylene, and Polyester materials. Sterile, Single Use, Non Absorbable. With or without Needles attached.
The provided document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for "AMERICAN SUTURE™ Non Absorbable Surgical Sutures with/without Needles." This is a medical device clearance, not an AI/ML device, and therefore the information requested in your prompt (e.g., sample size for test set, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set sample size, etc.) is not applicable to this document. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on material, design, intended use, and performance testing against recognized standards.
Here's the relevant information that can be extracted:

Study Proving Acceptance Criteria Met:
The acceptance criteria are met through a series of "performance and safety testing to verify mechanical properties and functioning, as well as biocompatibility and sterility," by testing the AMERICAN SUTURE™ against several FDA Recognized Standards and Mexican Norms. The application states that "The American Sutures™ Surgical sutures intended to be introduced have been tested in compliance with the following test methods," followed by a list of standards. The overall study approach is one of verification against established performance standards for surgical sutures.
Regarding the AI/ML specific questions (2-9):
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: N/A (not an AI/ML device)
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth... and qualifications: N/A (not an AI/ML device)
- Adjudication method: N/A (not an AI/ML device)
- If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done...: N/A (not an AI/ML device)
- If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done: N/A (not an AI/ML device)
- The type of ground truth used: N/A (not an AI/ML device). For this physical device, the "ground truth" is defined by the requirements and specifications set forth in recognized standards (e.g., USP monographs, ISO 10993) for mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and sterility.
- The sample size for the training set: N/A (not an AI/ML device)
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: N/A (not an AI/ML device)
