Oxymag is a controlled volume, pressure and time cycled emergency and transport ventilator. It is intended for use with infant, child, and adult patients with a tidal volume from 50 ml upwards who are in respiratory and/or cardiac arrest or respiratory distress and who require the ventilatory support.
It is intended for pre-hospital and hospital use including intra-hospital, inter-hospital and transport settings.
Oxymag provides a mixture of ambient air and oxygen at concentrations adjusted by the operator using the accurate oxygen concentration system using the venturi principle. O2 concentration is obtained through a galvanic cell by passing gas through the sensor. In addition, it performs the control of flows and pressures in the respiratory circuit to provide the ventilation modalities appropriate to the patient's condition.
The associated accessories include:
- Power outlet 12V/3,34A
- AC cable
- Disposable respiratory circuit
- 02 extension
- Environment filters
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the Oxymag - Transport and Emergency Ventilator. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (O-two e700, K141595) rather than establishing novel performance acceptance criteria or conducting a comprehensive study to prove these criteria.
Therefore, the document does not contain the specific information requested in most of your numbered points, as it's not a study designed to establish and prove acceptance criteria for a new device's performance in a clinical setting with human subjects. Instead, it describes bench testing, software verification, electrical safety, and biocompatibility to confirm the device operates as intended and is comparable to an already cleared device.
Here's what can be extracted and what is missing:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Based on Comparison to Predicate):
The submission demonstrates substantial equivalence by comparing the Oxymag's parameters and features to those of the predicate device, e700. The "acceptance criteria" are implicitly that the Oxymag's performance is equivalent or does not raise new safety or effectiveness concerns compared to the predicate.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
Since this is a 510(k) summary, formal "acceptance criteria" for a study are not explicitly stated in the way one might find in a clinical trial protocol. Instead, the performance is demonstrated by comparison with a predicate device and through various forms of engineering and non-clinical testing.
The provided "Table 1. Comparison table between the subject and predicate devices" serves as the primary evidence for this. Instead of a 'reported device performance' against a strict new acceptance criterion, it shows 'equivalence' or 'similarity' to the predicate.

The VORTRAN GO2VENT with PEEP Valve is to be used by properly trained personnel to deliver emergency, shortterm, constant flow, pressure-cycled ventilatory support on patients weighing 10 kg and above.
The device consists of a modulator (an exhalation valve that opens at PIP and closes at PEEP), a mechanical manometer, a resistor (which is referred to as the PEEP Valve) attached within the exhalation path for elevating the PEEP further than can be set with the modulator, a patient connector tee to supply gas flow, entrain additional air, and connect to a face mask or a tube inserted into a patient's airway, and two associated accessories. It is intended to be used by properly trained personnel in any environment in which emergency ventilation is required.
The VORTRAN GO₂VENT with PEEP Valve provides short-term, constant flow, pressure-cycled ventilatory support in either pressure control or pressure support mode. In pressure support mode, the rate dial of the VORTRAN GO₂VENT with PEEP Valve is set so that the baseline pressure is set above the set PEEP. This allows the patient to initiate inhalation by drawing the baseline pressure down to the set PEEP. In pressure control mode, the device will automatically cycle between PIP and PEEP when connected to a patient's airway.
The working mechanism of the VORTRAN GO₂VENT with PEEP Valve consists of a moving diaphragm that opens the exhalation path when the pressure reaches PIP and closes when the pressure reaches PEEP. Without the PEEP Valve, PEEP will be approximately 20% of the set PIP. With the PEEP Valve attached, the PEEP will be increased from this value up to 24 cm-H₂O depending on the patient's compliance and the VORTRAN GO₂VENT with PEEP Valve's settings. The PEEP Valve is attached within the exhalation path by connecting it between the modulator and the patient connector tee. The pressure at which the diaphragm opens and closes against the valve is controlled by the amount of spring force acting against the diaphragm's movement. The spring force is adjusted by manually turning a threaded knob that varies the amount of spring compression.
The device is constructed of a variety of plastics such as K-Resin, HDPE, polycarbonate, and silicone, as well as copper beryllium springs. The VORTRAN GO₂VENT with PEEP Valve is an external communicating device with limited and prolonged tissue contact duration (up to 30 days) via the breathing gas pathway.
The associated accessories were included with the cleared predicate device (K162968) and include:
- . Elbow flex hose for connecting the patient connector tee to a face mask or a tube inserted into a patient's airway
- Oxygen tubing for connecting the patient connector tee to a gas supply

MEDUMAT Easy CPR is an electrical, pneumatically operated emergency and transport ventilation used for ventilation and oxygen inhalation with either a mask or tube.
Patient groups
Adults and children with a body weight of over 22 lbs (10 kg) where spontaneous respiration has failed or is inadequate.
Users Qualified medical personnel only
Intended environments of use
· Mobile use for emergency medicine and primary care during emergency deployments
· During land or air transport or transfer between hospital rooms and departments
MEDUMAT Easy CPR is an electrical, pneumatically operated emergency and transport ventilator. Highly compressed medical oxygen is used as the ventilation gas; this is reduced to the necessary operating pressure via an external pressure reducer. The oxygen is supplied at the compressed gas connection. The ventilation parameters – frequency and tidal volume - are linked together and can be set using the adjusting knob on the device. The ventilation gas is transported to the patient through the ventilation hose via the patient valve and ventilation mask or via the tube. The lip membrane in the patient valve allows the patient exhalation of expiration gas. In order to monitor the patient, the device features continuous measurement of the airway pressure as well as a visual and audible alarm system.
The provided text describes the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria for the MEDUMAT Easy CPR device.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
The document doesn't explicitly list "acceptance criteria" for each performance metric in a table format with specific numerical targets. Instead, it states that various tests were conducted to "verify the safety and effectiveness" and that "the performance of MEDUMAT Easy CPR is at least as good as the performance of the predicate device." The "Test results" section for performance testing only indicates "Passed."
However, we can infer some criteria and reported performance from the comparison table and performance testing section.
Feature | Acceptance Criteria (Inferred) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Biocompatibility | Meet ISO 10993 and ISO 18562 series standards | Passed (Non-cytotoxic, non-sensitizer, non-irritant, no systemic toxicity, exposures to particulates and VOCs unlikely to result in toxicological effects, no organic compounds identified as leachable) |
EMC and Electrical Safety | Meet IEC 60601-1-2, -6, -8, -12 and AIM 7351731 standards | Passed |
Ventilation Mode Characteristics (IPPV, Manual Mode) | Similar to predicate device (Pneupac VR1 Standard) | Passed |
Demand Flow Mode (Inspiration Trigger, Expiration Trigger, Flow) | Similar to predicate device (Pneupac VR1 Standard) | Passed |
Pressure Limits | Similar to predicate device (Pneupac VR1 Standard) | Passed (Differences noted but determined not to raise additional concerns) |
Endurance and Functional Test of Pressure Relief Valve / Safety Valve | Functional operation and endurance | Passed |
Inspiratory and Expiratory Respiratory Resistances | Comparable to predicate device (Pneupac VR1 Standard) across different operating conditions | Passed |
Tidal Volume (Vt) Accuracy | ± 40 ml or ± 20% (the larger tolerance applies) | Stated as the tolerance; assumed to be met. (Predicate device has similar tolerances: ±15%) |
Operating Conditions (Temperature, Air Pressure, Humidity) | Within specified ranges and similar to predicate device | Tested for the subject device; operating conditions are similar and tested. |
Alerts (High Airway Pressure, Low Airway Pressure, Low gas supply, Low battery) | Functionality as specified | Present and stated to increase safety. (Predicate only has high airway pressure alarm). |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
The document does not specify the sample size for the test set in terms of number of devices or data points used for each performance test.
The data provenance is not explicitly mentioned (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective). The tests were conducted internally by the manufacturer (Weinmann Emergency Medical Technology GmbH + Co. KG, Germany) or by testing labs on their behalf.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
This information is not provided in the document. The performance tests appear to be engineering verification and validation against technical specifications and predicate device performance, rather than clinical studies requiring expert ground truth establishment.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
This information is not applicable/provided. The performance testing described is objective, technical verification against standards and predicate device characteristics, not subjective assessment requiring adjudication by multiple experts.
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:
This is not applicable. The MEDUMAT Easy CPR is a hardware device (ventilator), not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study is irrelevant to this device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
This is not applicable. The device is a ventilator, not an algorithm. Performance testing was done on the device itself.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
The "ground truth" for the performance testing can be considered:
- International Standards: For biocompatibility (ISO 10993, ISO 18562) and electrical safety/EMC (IEC 60601 series, AIM 7351731).
- Predicate Device Performance: For ventilation characteristics, pressure limits, demand flow mode, and respiratory resistances, the predicate device (Pneupac VR1 Standard) served as a benchmark for comparison.
- Internal Specifications/Design Requirements: For various technical data and functional tests.
8. The sample size for the training set:
This is not applicable. The MEDUMAT Easy CPR is a hardware medical device and does not involve machine learning or AI algorithms that require a "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
This is not applicable as there is no training set for this type of device.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
The document does not explicitly state the specific sample sizes used for each individual bench test. The testing was described as "bench testing," which typically involves laboratory-controlled environments and simulated conditions rather than real patient data. The data provenance is from this bench testing, not from human subjects or real-world clinical data. Therefore, there is no information on country of origin or whether the data was retrospective or prospective.
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 study involved bench testing of a medical device, where acceptance criteria were based on engineering and performance specifications (e.g., pressure, flow, FIO2 accuracy) rather than expert interpretation of medical images or data. Ground truth was established by measuring the physical performance parameters of the device against predefined technical requirements.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
Not applicable. As the study was bench testing against predefined technical specifications, there was no need for an adjudication method by human experts for the "ground truth." The "passing" or "failing" of a test was determined by whether the device's measured performance fell within the specified limits.
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 510(k) submission for a physical medical device (infant resuscitator) and not an AI or imaging diagnostic device. Therefore, an MRMC study comparing human reader performance with and without AI assistance was not conducted.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or an AI system. It is a physical medical device (infant resuscitator) that is intended for use by trained medical professionals.

The device's performance was measured against these objective, predefined technical requirements. There was no reliance on expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in the context of this bench testing.
8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable. This device is not an AI or machine learning system that requires a "training set" of data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable, as there was no training set for this device.

The SafeT T-Piece Resuscitator is a gas-powered emergency resuscitator intended to provide emergency respiratory support by means of a face mask or a tube inserted into a patient's airway. It is intended for use with neonates and infants weighing less than 10 kg (22 lb).
The SafeT T-Piece Resuscitator is a single-use, non-sterile, manually operated, gas-powered resuscitator for use with patients less than 10 kg (22 lb). It is a simple T-Piece resuscitator with a manometer and the ability to adjust Peak Inspiratory Pressure (PIP) and Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP). It incorporates a pressure relief valve to protect against excessive pressure. The T-Piece resuscitator can be connected to the patient via a face mask or tube. The subject device consists of several components: T-Piece patient valve with variable PEEP dial and integrated manometer, Adjustable inspiratory pressure controller, 40 cm H2O pressure relief valve, 7' Oxygen tubing with a red universal (Fits-all) connector, 20" x 10 mm circuit tubing, Face mask.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Ventlab, LLC SafeT T-Piece Resuscitator, a medical device for emergency respiratory support. It details the device's characteristics and its comparison to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence for FDA clearance.
Crucially, this document does not describe a study involving an AI/Machine Learning device or a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) study. It focuses on the substantial equivalence of a physical medical device (a resuscitator) based on its technological characteristics and performance testing against established standards, not on an algorithm's performance in interpreting medical images or data.
Therefore, many of the requested points, such as acceptance criteria for AI performance, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, and ground truth establishment for AI, are not applicable to the context of this document.
However, I can extract the closest analogous information regarding "acceptance criteria" and "study proving the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the context of this physical medical device:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
The document doesn't present a specific "acceptance criteria" table in the way one might for an AI device (e.g., sensitivity, specificity thresholds). Instead, "acceptance criteria" are implied by the compliance with applicable performance standards and the comparative data to predicate devices. The "reported device performance" is demonstrated by stating that the subject device "met all quantitative and qualitative requirements" of these standards and by the head-to-head comparison data presented in the "Substantial Equivalence Comparison Table" and subsequent discussion.
The most direct representation of "acceptance criteria" and "reported device performance" is found within the "Substantial Equivalence Comparison Table" itself, where critical performance metrics of the SafeT T-Piece Resuscitator are compared against those of the predicate device (Mercury Medical Neo-Tee) and a reference device (Fisher & Paykel NeoPuff).
Here is a partial table, extracted and reformatted from the "Substantial Equivalence Comparison Table" that acts as the primary evidence of meeting "acceptance criteria" (i.e., being substantially equivalent to the predicate device):
Characteristic / Performance Metric | SafeT T-Piece Resuscitator (Reported Performance) | Mercury Medical Neo-Tee (Predicate Device) | Acceptance Criteria/Comparison Outcome (from document) |

The MOVES® SLCTM is capable of operating under battery power or external AC supply. It includes a handle and mounting equipment that allows it to attach to a stretcher.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the MOVES® SLC™ medical device, which is an emergency ventilator with additional functions. This document describes the device, its indications for use, and its comparison to predicate devices to demonstrate substantial equivalence. However, it does not include detailed acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria in the format requested.
Specifically, the document:
- Does not provide a clear table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance. It offers a comparison table of features and characteristics between the MOVES® SLC™ and predicate devices, including some performance specifications like frequency range, tidal volume, and SPO2 accuracy, but these are comparative, not acceptance criteria.
- Does not mention anything about sample sizes used for test sets, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication methods, multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) studies, or standalone algorithm performance. This is because the device is a piece of hardware (ventilator, monitoring, suction, oxygen concentrator) and not an AI/software device that would typically involve such studies for regulatory clearance.
- Does not discuss a training set or how ground truth for a training set was established. This is irrelevant for a hardware medical device of this type.
- States that "Testing was conducted in accordance with all referenced standards and regulations, and to validate all system requirements" and a "Summary of Performance Testing" section mentions that "The results of performance testing demonstrate that the characteristics the MOVES® SLC™ are substantially equivalent to the identified predicates in terms of ventilator characteristics, patient monitoring performance, ability to delivery supplemental oxygen, and provide airway suction." However, it does not explicitly detail the specific performance test results against a defined set of acceptance criteria.
Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information as it is not present in the provided document. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices based on features, characteristics, and compliance with general medical device standards, rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria through clinical studies involving human readers or AI algorithms.

This Device is to be used by properly trained personnel to deliver emergency, short term, constant flow, pressure cycled ventilator support on patients weighing 10kg and above.
The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ provides short term, constant flow, pressure cycled ventilatory support in either pressure control or pressure support modes on patients weighing 10kg and above. In the pressure support mode, the rate dial of the VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is set so that the baseline pressure is above the set PEEP allowing the patient to initiate inhalation by drawing the baseline pressure down to the set PEEP. The device includes the pulmonary modulator (an exhalation valve that opens at PIP and closes at PEEP) and a patient connector tee to supply gas flow, entrain additional air, and provides a redundant pop-off valve for patient care. The working mechanism of the VORTRAN® GO2VENTTM consists of a moving diaphragm which adds or subtracts spring force when it is moved from a horizontal to a vertical position, the addition or subtraction of spring force will affect the PIP setting by 1~3 cm-H2O. The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ will function in any position as long as the final adjustments are made in a secured position (strapped or taped to the patient). The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is not an ICU stand alone ventilator with multiple monitoring features. Set up and use of the VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is simple. Set desired flow and adjust pressure dial to obtain desired I-time and/or tidal volume (see tidal volume chart in instructions), and adjust rate dial to obtain desired rate and I to E ratio.
The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is a powered emergency ventilator. The device was found substantially equivalent to its predicate device (VORTRAN® Automatic Resuscitator (VAR-Plus), K041473) based on non-clinical performance data and material biocompatibility.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The device's acceptance criteria are based on compliance with the following standards:

In addition, specific modifications were tested:
- MR Conditional: The new beryllium-copper springs were tested according to ASTM F2052 and verified as MR Conditional for a static magnetic field of 3-Tesla or less, and a spatial gradient magnetic field of 10,000-gauss/cm or less.
- New Entrainment Connectors: All testing data showed that the change in the knobs for FiO2 delivery did not degrade performance and the device delivers the required specifications.
- New Beryllium-Copper Springs: Tested for performance and fatigue.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
The document concerns non-clinical performance testing only. There is no specific "test set" sample size in terms of clinical data or patient cases mentioned. The testing was conducted on the device itself and its components. The data provenance is from non-clinical laboratory testing performed by the manufacturer and a third-party (Shellock MR Testing for MR Conditional verification). The data is retrospective in the sense of comparing the new device against previously documented performance of the predicate device and established standards.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
Not applicable, as this was a non-clinical device performance and material compatibility study, not an expert-driven ground truth establishment for a diagnostic or AI algorithm.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
Not applicable, as this was non-clinical device performance testing against established standards and predicate device specifications, not a clinical trial requiring adjudication of patient outcomes or interpretations.
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:
No. This is not an AI-enabled device; it is a powered emergency ventilator. Therefore, no MRMC study or AI assistance evaluation was performed.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This is not an algorithm, but a medical device.
7. The type of ground truth used:
The ground truth for the device's performance is compliance with established engineering and medical device standards (ASTM F 920-93 and ISO 10651-5) and the performance specifications of the predicate device. Material compatibility was assessed against materials used in previously cleared devices.
8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable, as this is hardware medical device. There is no "training set" in the context of machine learning.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable, no training set or ground truth in the context of machine learning.

o two e700, e600 and e500 are a time-cycled, volume-constant and pressure-controlled (only e700) emergency and transport ventilator designed for use in the pre-hospital, inter-hospital and transport settings. It is intended for use with adult, child, infant patients with a tidal volume from 50 ml (100 ml for e500) upwards who are in respiratory and/or cardiac arrest or respiratory distress and who require ventilatory support.
The proposed o_two e700, o_two e600 and o_two e500 are time-cycled, volume-constant and pressure controlled (o_two e700 only) emergency and transport ventilators. They are electronically controlled, pneumatically powered ventilators which can be run using AC/DC power adapter or an internal rechargeable Lithium Ion battery pack. The devices use a 4.3" TFT screen to display live ventilation parameters (Tidal and minute volumes, proximal airway pressure and breathing rate) as well as ventilation pressure & volume wave forms, ventilation modes, settings, alarm limits and battery status. The wide range of both visual and audible alarms provides the healthcare professional with warnings of any changes in patient or device parameters.
The provided text describes the O-Two Medical Technologies' e700, e600, and e500 Electronic Transport Ventilators and their substantial equivalence to predicate devices, but it does not contain the specific information requested in the prompt regarding acceptance criteria, performance tables, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or ground truth establishment.
The document is a 510(k) premarket notification for device clearance, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed devices (predicates) rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and performance study outcomes in the format you've requested.
Here's what can be extracted based on the document, and what is explicitly not available:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
-
Not explicitly provided in the requested format with specific numerical acceptance criteria and performance metrics for an AI/algorithm-based device.
-
The document primarily presents a comparative table showing the characteristics and specifications of the proposed devices against the predicate devices (Oxylog 3000 and CAREvent PAR) to demonstrate "Substantial Equivalence." Instead of acceptance criteria, it lists features and parameters and asserts "Yes" for substantial equivalence or notes specific differences.
- Example from the document (partial):
Characteristic | Proposed o_two e700, o_two e600 and o_two e500 | Predicate K062267 Oxylog 3000 or K081330 CAREvent PAR | Substantial Equivalence |
---|---|---|---|
Ventilation modes | CMV, ACV, SIMV, SIMV / PS, BiLVL, BiLVL /PS, CPAP, CPAP /PS | CMV, CMVassist (ACV), SIMV, SIMV /PS, BIPAP(BiLVL), BIPAP (BiLVL)/PS, CPAP, CPAP /PS | Equivalent to Oxylog 3000 |
Tidal Volume (L) | 50 ml to 2.0 L | 50 ml to 2.0 L | Equivalent to Oxylog 3000 |
Battery Operating time | 18 hrs | 4 hrs | Better than Oxylog 3000 |
Safety relief valve | Opens at 80 cmH2O | Opens at 80 cmH2O | Equivalent to Oxylog 3000 |
Alarms Audible/Visual & indications | Pmax, Pmin, MVHigh, MVLow, Low Battery (20% increments), BCI, Supply pressure Low or No, APNEA | Pmax, Pmin, MVHigh, MVLow, Low Battery (25% increments), Leakage, Supply pressure, APNEA | Equivalent to Oxylog 3000 |
- The "Summary of Performance Testing" section lists qualitative findings from a comparative bench test:
- "Both ventilators delivered equivalent volume-time, pressure-time and flow-time wave forms under the same ventilation mode;"
- "Both ventilators were responsive to spontaneous breathing trigger;"
- "Ventilation Vt, frequency and I:E ratio or Ti of both units were close to target or preset parameters;"
- "Both units delivered similar pressure supports."
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Not available. The document mentions "comparative side-by-side bench testing" but does not specify sample sizes (e.g., number of test cases, simulated patient scenarios, or real patient data) or data provenance. It's bench testing, implying simulated rather than patient data.
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 / Not available. This is a ventilator device, and the testing described is bench testing against established performance metrics and comparison to predicate devices, not an AI/imaging diagnostic device requiring human expert ground truth for interpretation.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable / Not available. Adjudication methods are typically used for establishing ground truth in diagnostic studies, which is not the nature of this submission.
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
- No, this was not done. This is not relevant for an electronic transport ventilator. The study focused on proving substantial equivalence through bench testing and comparison of specifications to predicate devices, not on human reader performance with or without AI assistance.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. The device is a ventilator, a physical system with embedded software, not a standalone algorithm for diagnostic or interpretative tasks. The "Summary of Performance Testing" refers to bench testing of the device's operational performance.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
- For the bench testing, the "ground truth" would be the expected physical performance parameters and waveforms based on established engineering and medical device standards (e.g., IEC 60601 series, EN 794-3, ISO 10651-3, ISO 80601-2-12) and the known performance of the predicate devices. The device's output (volume-time, pressure-time, flow-time waveforms, Vt, frequency, I:E ratio, etc.) was compared against these established targets.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable / Not available. This is not an AI/machine learning device that uses a "training set" in the conventional sense. The device's software logic is developed based on engineering principles and validated through testing.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable / Not available. As this is not an AI/machine learning device requiring a training set, the concept of establishing ground truth for a training set does not apply.
In summary: The provided FDA document is a 510(k) clearance letter and summary for a medical device (electronic transport ventilator). It demonstrates "substantial equivalence" to predicate devices through comparative bench testing and specifications. It does not contain the specific information about AI/algorithm performance, detailed acceptance criteria tables, sample sizes for AI model development/testing, or expert-based ground truth evaluations as typically found in submissions for AI-enabled diagnostic or interpretive devices.

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Thornhill Research Inc. MOVES® SLC™ medical device. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device rather than conducting extensive clinical studies to establish new safety and effectiveness.
Therefore, the document does not contain the kind of detailed information about acceptance criteria and study designs (like sample sizes for test and training sets, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, or MRMC studies) that would be present in a submission establishing de novo safety and effectiveness for a novel device or AI algorithm.
The document mainly describes the device, its intended use, and states that performance testing was conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices and compliance with relevant standards.
Here's a breakdown of the information available in the document regarding acceptance criteria and performance, as much as can be extracted:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not provide a specific table of quantitative acceptance criteria with corresponding performance metrics. Instead, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices.
The "Summary of Performance Testing" section states:
"The results of performance testing demonstrate that the characteristics SLC are substantially equivalent to the identified predicates in terms of ventilator characteristics, patient monitoring performance, ability to delivery supplemental oxygen, and provide airway suction."
And the "Determination of Substantial Equivalence" section reiterates:
"Where differences in performance or technology exist, it has been demonstrated that they do not adversely impact safety or effectiveness. In addition, SLC has been tested to comply with relevant recognized consensus safety and performance standards as well as voluntary standards (detailed above)."
The acceptance criteria, implicitly, are that the device's performance characteristics for ventilation, patient monitoring, oxygen delivery, and suction must be substantially equivalent to those of its predicate devices and comply with all referenced standards and regulations.
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
This information is not provided in the 510(k) summary. The testing mentioned is "performance testing" and likely refers to engineering, bench, and potentially animal testing, rather than human clinical trials with specific patient sample sizes. The provenance of any data (country, retrospective/prospective) is also not mentioned.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
This information is not applicable/provided. The document describes a medical device (ventilator, monitor, concentrator, suction pump), not an AI algorithm requiring expert-established ground truth on a test set (e.g., for image classification or diagnosis).
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable/provided for the reasons stated above.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No, a MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not conducted or reported in this 510(k) summary. This type of study is typically performed for AI-powered diagnostic aids where the impact on human reader performance is being evaluated.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done
The MOVES® SLC™ is a hardware medical device with integrated software/control. It is not an "algorithm only" device in the sense of a standalone AI diagnostic tool. Therefore, the concept of "standalone performance" for an algorithm without human-in-the-loop is not applicable in this context. The performance testing refers to the overall device's functionality.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
Given that this is a hardware device primarily demonstrating substantial equivalence and compliance with standards, the "ground truth" would be established through a combination of:
- Engineering specifications and measurements: Comparing output parameters (e.g., ventilator pressures, flow rates, oxygen concentration, monitoring accuracy) against known physical standards or the specifications of predicate devices.
- Performance against predicate device specifications: Ensuring that the MOVES® SLC™ meets or exceeds the demonstrated performance of its predicate devices for the various functions.
- Compliance with recognized consensus standards: Meeting the benchmarks set by standards like IEC 60601 series, EN-794-3, ISO 8359, and ASTM E1112-00.
There is no mention of expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data being used as "ground truth" in the context of this 510(k) summary.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This information is not applicable/provided. The MOVES® SLC™ is not described as a device that uses machine learning or an AI algorithm that requires a "training set" of data. Its control system and functionalities are based on established engineering principles and algorithms, not data-driven machine learning models that are "trained."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
This information is not applicable/provided as there is no mention of a training set for an AI algorithm.
