    Intended Use

    The Nihon Kohden TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit is intended for medical purposes to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in a gas mixture to aid in determining the patient's ventilatory status.

    Along with other methods indicated by the physician for medical diagnosis, this device is intended as an indicator of patient carbon dioxide concentration during expiration. The device is intended for use by qualified medical personnel within a hospital, ambulatory care, transport, or any other clinical environment.

    Device Description

    The TG-980P and TG-980P1, collectively referred to as TG-980P/TG-980P1, are CO2 Sensor Kits used to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2 or CO2) during patient expiration. The TG-980P/TG-980P1 is intended for use by qualified medical personnel as an aid for determining patient ventilatory status within a hospital, ambulatory care, transport, or any other clinical environment.

    The TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit comprises three main components: a CO2 sensor, an interface connector, and a sensor cable. It utilizes the mainstream measurement method to sample gas directly from the patient's airway and non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) absorption technology to measure CO2 concentration during patient expiration. CO2 gas absorbs infrared light at specific wavelengths, and the amount absorbed is directly related to CO2 concentration. The CO2 sensor is equipped with a light source that generates infrared light. The light passes through an attached Nihon Kohden accessory (except the Thermal Airflow Sensor) through which the expired air flows and is converted by photodetectors to voltage, which is used to calculate CO2 concentration. The calculated digital data is then transmitted and displayed on a connected patient monitor or other device.

    The TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit can be connected via the interface connector and used with Nihon Kohden devices for which the operator's manual specifies compatibility with the TG-980P/TG-980P1.

    AI/ML Overview

    This FDA 510(k) clearance letter pertains to a hardware device (CO2 Sensor Kit) and not an AI/ML software. Therefore, many of the requested criteria regarding AI-specific studies (e.g., sample size for training set, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC study) are not applicable.

    However, I can extract the relevant acceptance criteria and details of the non-clinical performance studies conducted for the device.


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Non-AI Device)

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    The document provides the performance specifications for the CO2 Sensor Kit, rather than explicit "acceptance criteria" in the typical sense of a target for a specific study. The reported device performance is compared to the predicate device's performance.

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

    The document states that Nihon Kohden conducted "non-clinical bench testing" as part of design verification and validation. It does not specify a "sample size" in relation to patient data or a test set of clinical cases. The testing appears to be primarily laboratory-based engineering verification and validation, rather than clinical studies with human subjects. Thus, there is no mention of data provenance in terms of country of origin or retrospective/prospective studies.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

    Not applicable, as this is a hardware device primarily undergoing bench testing against engineering specifications and recognized standards, not a diagnostic AI/ML device requiring expert-established ground truth from clinical cases.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods are typically relevant for clinical studies involving multiple human readers interpreting results, especially for AI/ML devices. This device underwent non-clinical bench testing.

    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 hardware CO2 sensor, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

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

    This is fundamentally a standalone hardware device performing a direct physiological measurement. Its performance is evaluated intrinsically through engineering tests and comparison to established standards, rather than as an "algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance" in the context of AI. The measurements are presented on a host device, but the sensor itself performs the CO2 measurement.

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

    The "ground truth" for evaluating this device's performance relies on physical and engineering measurement standards and reference gases. For example, CO2 partial pressure accuracy is measured against known concentrations of CO2 gases under controlled conditions. Similarly, response times, respiration rate accuracy, and environmental tolerances are measured against calibrated physical standards and established test methods outlined in the cited consensus standards (e.g., ISO 80601-2-55).

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is a hardware CO2 sensor, not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

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

    Not applicable. (See answer to #8).
