    Intended Use

    The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump (Pod) is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring insulin. The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices. The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump is intended for single patient, home use and requires a prescription.

    Device Description

    The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump is intended to deliver insulin via a tubeless insulin pump (the Pod) that wirelessly connects to and receives insulin delivery commands from the Omnipod 5 App, which is installed on a locked-down Android controller device or a user's personal smartphone device. The predicate device allowed the user to download the Omnipod 5 App to an Android compatible phone. This submission includes an iOS compatible Omnipod 5 App to allow users to download it to a compatible iPhone.

    The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump is part of the Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System, which also includes SmartAdjust Technology (iAGC), and the SmartBolus Calculator. SmartAdjust Technology and the SmartBolus Calculator functionally independent from the Omnipod 5 ACE Pump. The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump is intended to be digitally connected to a third party iCGM, SmartAdjust Technology, and the SmartBolus Calculator.

    The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump can operate in Manual Mode, delivering insulin based on userprogrammed basal rates, or in Automated Mode, where insulin is automatically delivered based on the calculations and command of a compatible iAGC. Currently, the Omnipod 5 ACE Pump is compatible with SmartAdjust Technology, the software which is pre-installed on the Pod and the App. Future alternate controllers may be established for use with the Pod, in which case the software modules of the SmartAdjust Technology would be disabled. The Pod is a bodywearable insulin pump that affixes to the user on the back of the arm, the lower back, the abdomen, the thigh area, or any site that has a layer of fatty tissue available. It is held in place by an adhesive pad and provides up to three days of insulin before it is removed and replaced with a new Pod. The Omnipod 5 App is a software application installed on a handheld touchscreen device (Android and iOS) that connects to the Pod via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and serves as the user interface of the system. In addition to programmed basal delivery and automated insulin delivery, the Omnipod 5 ACE Pump allows users to deliver bolus doses at values that are either inputted manually or calculated by the SmartBolus Calculator based on the user's settings and user-entered parameters. The Pod has the ability to connect to a compatible iCGM through BLE and receive data for use with SmartAdiust Technology and the SmartBolus Calculator.

    The Omnipod 5 App has the ability to wirelessly connect to the Insulet Cloud which it utilizes for registering new devices, authenticating users, ensuring hardware devices and host operating systems are compatible, and completing over the air software (OTA) and firmware (FOTA) updates.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Omnipod 5 ACE Pump, which describes the addition of an iOS compatible mobile application. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device (K203768).

    Based on the provided text, the acceptance criteria and study details are primarily related to software verification and validation, interoperability, cybersecurity, electrical safety and EMC, and human factors validation for the new iOS application, rather than clinical performance of the insulin delivery itself (as the Pod itself was not modified).

    Here's an attempt to structure the information based on your request, highlighting what is and isn't explicitly stated in the document:

    Device: Omnipod 5 ACE Pump (with added iOS compatible Omnipod 5 App)
    Purpose of Submission: To add a new mobile application compatible with iOS mobile devices. The Omnipod 5 App (iOS) is the new configuration being added to the previously cleared Omnipod 5 ACE Pump.


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document describes several types of performance testing and their adherence to standards and regulations. It doesn't present specific quantitative acceptance criteria or detailed performance metrics in a tabular format that is typically seen for accuracy, sensitivity, or specificity in AI/ML medical devices. Instead, it states that tests were performed and demonstrated that predetermined acceptance criteria were met and the device is safe and effective for use.

    Note on Insulin Delivery Accuracy: The document states that the "Pod Delivery Accuracy (tested per IEC 60601-2-24)" for basal and bolus rates is a characteristic of the predicate device and is unchanged for the subject device. It is listed as:

    • Basal: ± 5% at rates ≥ 0.05 U/hr
    • Bolus: ± 5% for all set values ≥ 1.0 unit, ± 0.05 unit for set values < 1.0 unit
      However, the current submission focuses on the new mobile app, not the Pod's fundamental insulin delivery mechanism.

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

    The document does not specify quantitative sample sizes for the various testing protocols (e.g., software validation, human factors validation). It broadly refers to "performance testing" being completed.

    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective data in the context of clinical studies for direct performance evaluation. The testing described is primarily non-clinical, involving software validation, cybersecurity analysis, and human factors validation. The device is a pump with an app, not an AI/ML algorithm that analyzes patient data to provide a diagnosis or risk assessment.

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

    N/A. This submission is for an Alternate Controller Enabled Pump (ACE Pump) with a new mobile application. It's not an AI/ML diagnostic or prognostic device where expert ground truth interpretation of images or other clinical data would be required. The "ground truth" for this device's validation is adherence to engineering and usability standards and ensuring the software functions as intended and securely.


    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    N/A. Not applicable for this type of device submission. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 typically apply to the establishment of ground truth in image-based diagnostic AI/ML models.


    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study focuses on how AI assistance impacts human reader performance, typically in diagnostic tasks. The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump with its iOS app is an insulin delivery system and its controlling interface, not a diagnostic AI.


    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    The "algorithm only" performance for an insulin pump would refer to its ability to accurately deliver insulin based on programmed rates or commands. The document states that the Omnipod 5 ACE Pump's Pod (insulin pump itself) has not been modified, and therefore, performance testing applicable only to the Pod was not completed for this submission. The original validation of the Pod's insulin delivery accuracy (referenced in the table) would be considered its standalone performance. The new submission focuses on the software application for iOS as the controller. The software's performance is validated through various non-clinical tests (software validation, interoperability, cybersecurity, human factors) to ensure it reliably sends commands to the Pod.


    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for this submission are the established technical standards, regulatory guidelines, and functional requirements for medical device software, cybersecurity, electrical safety, and human factors. For instance:

    • Software Validation: Ground truth is defined by the functional specifications and requirements of the software.
    • Cybersecurity: Ground truth is defined by cybersecurity best practices and regulatory guidance.
    • Human Factors Validation: Ground truth is defined by usability engineering principles and standards, demonstrated by the device being "safe and effective for the intended users, uses, and use environments" after testing.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    N/A. The Omnipod 5 ACE Pump and its associated app are not explicitly described as an AI/ML device that uses a "training set" in the context of supervised learning for a diagnostic or prognostic task. The software development process would involve iterative testing and debugging, but this is distinct from training a machine learning model on a labeled dataset.


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

    N/A, as there is no mention of an AI/ML training set in the context of this device and its submission.
