Safety Lancet is intended to be used to obtain capillary blood sample to perform medical testing, including blood glucose monitoring and for tests using small amounts of blood.

Safety Lancet could be divided into Model XA Pro and Model ZF.Each model has sharps protection features that it can reduce the occurrence of accidental needle sticks. The device is sterilized by Co-60 or e-beam gamma ray and for single use.The shelf life is 5 years. Model XA Pro has four versions according to the different three penetration depths, version XA1 Pro,version XA3 Pro,version XA5 Pro and version XA11 Pro. Model ZF also has four versions according to the different need type and material of slider, version ZF1,version ZF2,version ZF1 Blade and version ZF2 Blade.

Model XA Pro is composed of a protective cap, a knob (for depth settings), a front spring, housing, needle body with tri-bevel edge needle, a rear spring and a back cover (push button). The needle body with needle or blade is hidden inside the housing/protective cap. The device is colour coded for different versions.There is an integrated automatic inactivation system to prevent lancet reuse. When the back cover is pressed down, it drives the rear spring to compress downwards. The back cover support legs are flush with the inclined surface of the protruding line head of the housing. The needle is rotated and slided downwards under the force of the rear spring until it is disengaged from the inclined surface and fired forward for blood sampling, while compressing the front spring. The needle will be retracted automatically back into the housing after the puncture due to the force from the pressed front spring. The needle cannot go back to the starting position and stays between the relaxed rear spring and front spring. Therefore, the device cannot be re-used.

Model ZF lancet is composed of spring, three-facet needle or blade, housing, and slider. The needle body with needle or blade is concealed within housing/slider. The lancets of different specifications are in different colors. There is an integrated automatic inactivation system to prevent lancet reuse. The spring is fixed at the bottom of the housing, and when the slider is pressed down, which drives the spring to compress downwards.The two locking points(blocked the needle) on the slider will be opened along the slope of the housing, the needle will be released to fire under the force of the spring for blood sampling. After the puncture is completed, the spring retracts to a relaxed state and synchronously pulls the needle body back into the housing. Therefore, the device cannot be re-used.

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a "Safety Lancet" (K242627). It details the acceptance criteria and the studies performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K222090).

Here's a breakdown of the requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document does not specify the exact sample sizes used for each individual test within the "Performance Test" section. It broadly states that "All non-clinical bench testing performed on the subject device is to demonstrate the substantial equivalence to the predicate devices."

For the "Performance of Clinical Simulated Use Testing for Sharps Injury Protection," it states: "Select the most widely sold in the market of each model as typical product for study." This suggests a limited sample size focused on representative models, but the exact number isn't provided.

The data provenance is not explicitly stated as originating from a specific country or being retrospective/prospective. Given the manufacturer is Ningbo Medsun Medical Co., Ltd. in China, it's highly likely the testing was conducted in China. The "non-clinical bench testing" and "clinical simulated use testing" imply a prospective testing approach dedicated to this submission.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

The document does not involve expert-established ground truth in the traditional sense for diagnostic AI/software. The testing described is for a physical medical device (safety lancet) and focuses on engineering and performance criteria. The "ground truth" for the performance tests would be objective measurements and observations against pre-defined engineering and safety standards. No human expert consensus for a diagnostic outcome is relevant here.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable. This is not a diagnostic study requiring human adjudication for interpretation. The performance tests involve objective physical and chemical measurements.

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

Not applicable. This is a submission for a physical medical device (safety lancet), not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, and therefore an MRMC study is not relevant.

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

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device.

7. The type of ground truth used

The ground truth used for these tests are the pre-defined technical specifications, engineering requirements, and safety standards (e.g., ISO 23908:2011, ISO 10993 series, and 21 CFR 801). The "Passed" results indicate that the device met these objective criteria.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not a machine learning model, so there is no "training set."

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable. There is no training set for a physical safety lancet.
