    Intended Use

    Ascent Cardiorespiratory Diagnostic Software is intended to be used for measurements, data collection and analysis of lung function (PFT) parameters, and cardiopulmonary testing (CPET) parameters, aiding in the diagnosis of related conditions.

    All the measurements are performed via a mouthpiece or a mask.

    The results of the test can be viewed on-line with the help of a computer screen and can be printed after the test. The test results can be saved for further referral or report generation purposes.

    For use of the Bronchial Challenge option, the medical director of the laboratory, physician, or person appropriately trained to treat acute bronchoconstriction, including appropriate use of resuscitation equipment, must be close enough to respond quickly to an emergency.

    The product can be utilized for patients from 4 years old and older as long as they can cooperate in the performance -- no special limit to patient's sex or height.

    Measurements will be performed under the direction of a physician in a hospital environment, physician's office or similar settings.

    Device Description

    Ascent™ Cardiorespiratory Diagnostic Software ("Ascent") is a stand-alone software application which can be used with several hardware devices in the Medical Graphics Corporation product line.

    The core purpose of the software for measurement, data collection and analysis of testing in patients who may be suffering from pulmonary illnesses like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, exercise intolerance, heart failure and/or cardiorespiratory concerns where diagnosis and prognosis needs to be determined.

    In conjunction with diagnostic hardware, Ascent is used to collect data pertaining to the patient's degree of obstruction, lung volumes, and diffusing capacity. It is also used to present the collected lung diagnostic information so that it can be checked for quality and interpreted by a qualified physician, often a pulmonologist or cardiologist.

    All the measurements are performed via a mouthpiece or a face mask.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary from the FDA, which outlines the substantial equivalence determination for a medical device. This type of document focuses on comparing a new device to existing legally marketed predicate devices rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and the results of a specific clinical study with granular performance metrics. As such, the document does not contain the specific information needed to fulfill all aspects of your request, particularly regarding detailed performance metrics, sample sizes for test sets (beyond general validation statements), expert qualifications, ground truth establishment methods for test sets, MRMC studies, or training set details.

    However, I can extract the information that is present and highlight what is missing based on your request.

    Missing Information:

    • Detailed Acceptance Criteria Table with Specific Performance Metrics: The document states that the software was "extensively validated per medical device software standards and guidance" and that "Testing results support that Ascent fulfills its intended use/indications for use." It also mentions "Performance tests included FEV1, MVV, FRC, SVC, DLCO, VA, TGV, VO2, VCO2, and VE." However, it does not provide specific quantitative acceptance criteria (e.g., "FEV1 must be within X% of ground truth") or the reported performance for these metrics.
    • Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance: The document does not specify the sample size for the test data used for performance validation, nor does it detail the provenance (country, retrospective/prospective) of this data.
    • Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth: The document does not describe how ground truth for the test set was established, including the number or specific qualifications of experts involved.
    • Adjudication Method for Test Set: No information is provided regarding adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1).
    • Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study: The document does not indicate that an MRMC study was performed or provide any effect size for human reader improvement with AI assistance.
    • Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only): While the document states "Ascent Cardiorespiratory Diagnostic Software is a stand-alone software application," it describes validation as "Performance validation testing was done with the subject software device and recommended hardware devices working together." It does not provide specific performance metrics for the algorithm only without human interaction in a diagnostic capacity beyond its intended function of measuring, collecting, and analyzing parameters. The software aids diagnosis, implying human interpretation.
    • Type of Ground Truth Used (for Test Set): The document implicitly refers to "performance tests" for various physiological parameters (FEV1, DLCO, etc.), suggesting comparison to a reference standard for these measurements. However, it does not explicitly state the nature of this "ground truth" (e.g., expert consensus, pathology, outcome data) beyond reference to ATS/ERS guidelines for standardization.
    • Sample Size for Training Set: No information on training data or its size is provided. This is typical for a 510(k) for software that calculates and analyzes data from hardware, rather than an AI/ML model that learns from large datasets.
    • How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established: Not applicable as training data details are not provided.

    Information that can be extracted from the document:

    The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the "Ascent Cardiorespiratory Diagnostic Software" (K242809). It details the device's substantial equivalence to predicate devices, focusing on its intended use, technological characteristics, and conformity to relevant standards and guidelines.

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

    As noted above, specific quantitative acceptance criteria and reported performance metrics are NOT provided in this document. The document generally states that "Ascent Cardiorespiratory Diagnostic Software was extensively validated per medical device software standards and guidance. Testing results support that Ascent fulfills its intended use/indications for use..."

    It mentions that "Performance tests included FEV1, MVV, FRC, SVC, DLCO, VA, TGV, VO2, VCO2, and VE." However, no numerical results or thresholds are given. The validation was done referencing the following guidelines/standards for "acceptability and repeatability":

    • ATS/ ERS Standardisation of Spirometry (2019)
    • ERS/ ATS Standardisation of the Measurements of Lung Volumes (2023)
    • 2017 ERS/ ATS Standards for Single-Breath Carbon Monoxide Uptake in the Lung
    • ERS Technical Standard on Bronchial Challenge Testing (2017)
    • 2017 ATS Guidelines for a Standardized PF Report
    • ATS/ ACCP Statement on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (2003)

    Summary of available information for a table format (conceptual, as specific numerical data is missing):

    Performance MeasureAcceptance Criteria (Stated as conforming to standards)Reported Device Performance (General Statement)
    FEV1Conforms to ATS/ERS Standardisation of Spirometry (2019) requirements for acceptability and repeatability.Testing results support intended use.

    VEConforms to ATS/ACCP Statement on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (2003) guidelines.Testing results support intended use.
    CybersecurityAddressed as per FDA Guidance - Cybersecurity in Medical Devices.Not specified explicitly beyond "addressed."
    Risk ManagementConforms to ISO 14971.Not specified explicitly.
    Software Life CycleConforms to IEC 62304.Not specified explicitly.

    2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample Size: Not specified. The document only states "Software validation testing involved system level tests, performance tests and safety testing based on hazard analysis. Performance validation testing was done with the subject software device and recommended hardware devices working together."
    • Data Provenance: Not specified (e.g., country of origin, 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 provided in the document.

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

    • This information is not provided in the document.

    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 MRMC study is mentioned or implied. The software is described as
      "aiding in the diagnosis of related conditions" and presenting "diagnostic information so that it can be checked for quality and interpreted by a qualified physician." This device is a "Predictive Pulmonary-Function Value Calculator" and performs measurements and analysis, but it is not described as an AI system assisting human readers in image interpretation or diagnosis in a comparative effectiveness study context.

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

    • The device is indeed described as a "stand-alone software application." However, the performance validation was done "with the subject software device and recommended hardware devices working together." Its output (measurements and analysis) is intended to be "displayed to the user" and "interpreted by a qualified physician."
    • The document does not provide performance metrics for the algorithm only in a way that suggests a diagnostic output without human interpretation or hardware interaction. It's a software that processes data from hardware to provide measurements and analysis, not, for example, a diagnostic image analysis AI.

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

    • The document implies that the ground truth for the performance tests (FEV1, DLCO, etc.) would be established by the standardized measurement techniques defined by governing bodies like ATS/ERS/ACCP. These typically involve comparing the device's calculated values against accepted reference methods for deriving those physiological parameters, often involving highly calibrated equipment and expert technicians following strict protocols. However, the exact nature of this "ground truth" (e.g., what gold standard was used for comparison) is not explicitly detailed beyond referencing the standards themselves.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • This information is not provided in the document. This type of device (a calculator/analyzer) is typically engineered based on established physiological formulas and algorithms, rather than being "trained" on large datasets in the way a deep learning AI model would be.

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

    • Not applicable, as training set details are not provided and the device functions as a calculator based on established science, not a machine learning model that learns from a labeled training set.

The pulmonary Function Tester is powered by lithium battery (DC 3.7V, 1500mAh) or tablet/computer USB port, or the equipped power supply.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for a Pulmonary Function Tester. It describes the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not contain the detailed acceptance criteria for specific performance metrics nor the results of a specific clinical study used to prove the device meets those criteria.

    Instead, the document states that "Non-clinical tests were conducted to verify that the Pulmonary Function Tester (Model: A9) meets all design specifications which supports the conclusion that it's Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the predicate device." It then lists the standards the device complies with. While these standards define acceptable performance ranges and test methods, the actual acceptance criteria and the device's reported performance against these criteria for each specific lung function parameter are not explicitly detailed in a table or narrative form in the provided text.

    Therefore, I cannot populate the requested table and answer questions 2-9 with specific information from the provided document, as that level of detail is not present. The document focuses on demonstrating compliance with recognized standards rather than presenting a detailed study report of the device's performance against specific, pre-defined acceptance criteria.

    Key Missing Information for Your Request:

    • Specific Acceptance Criteria: While compliance with standards like ISO 26782 and ISO 23747 implies certain performance expectations, the document does not list explicit numerical acceptance criteria for parameters like FVC accuracy, FEV1 accuracy, PEF accuracy, etc., for the subject device itself.
    • Reported Device Performance: Relatedly, the document does not provide a table or narrative of the subject device's measured performance (e.g., "FVC accuracy achieved X%") against these (unspecified) acceptance criteria.
    • Detailed Study Design: There is no description of a clinical or non-clinical study with details about sample size, ground truth establishment, expert involvement, or adjudication methods. The "non-clinical tests" are mentioned as being conducted to verify design specifications and compliance with standards, but the specifics of these tests are not provided beyond the standards themselves.

    Based on the provided text, here is what can and cannot be stated:


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

    Cannot be fully provided as the specific acceptance criteria and reported device performance (e.g., FVC accuracy = X%, PEF accuracy = Y%) are not explicitly stated in a table or narrative form in the provided text.

    The document references standards that contain performance requirements. For example, under "Flow (PEF) Accuracy" it states for the subject device: "

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

    The document describes a "side-by-side" test against the predicate device. However, the specific sample size for this test set (number of measurements, number of patients) is not provided. The data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is also not explicitly stated. It's implied to be a testing scenario rather than a clinical study on patients, given the wording.

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

    The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for this non-clinical, side-by-side comparison test. The comparison was made against the measurements of a cleared predicate device (Cosmed Q-NRG+).

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Since the ground truth was established by comparison to a predicate device's measurements in a laboratory setting, there was no expert adjudication method described.

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

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The described testing is a non-clinical side-by-side comparison of device measurements, not a study involving human readers or their improvement with AI assistance.

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

    Yes, the described testing is a standalone performance evaluation of the Virtus Metabolic Monitor. It directly compares the device's measurements (V'O2, V'CO2, REE) against those of a predicate device in a controlled setting, without a human-in-the-loop context.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for the non-clinical side-by-side test was the measurements provided by the predicate device (Cosmed Q-NRG+). The study aimed to show "acceptable agreement of measurements between the subject device and the predicate device."

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    The document does not mention any training set or related sample size. The device calculates metabolic parameters using the standard Weir formula and relies on measured V'O2 and V'CO2. There's no indication of a machine learning-based algorithm requiring a training set in this summary.

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

    As no training set is mentioned or implied, the method for establishing its ground truth is not applicable.

    Intended Use

    The Model 9100 PFT/DICO is a pulmonary function testing device which uses Morgan Scientific's ComPAS2 software to measure subject respiratory parameters including FVC, SVC, MVV, CPF, RMS, SNIP, DLCO, MBN2 and SBN2.

    The device is PC-based and designed for lung function testing on adults and pediatrics, 6 years and older, in a variety of professional healthcare environments e.g., primary care, hospitals, pharmaceutical research centers and physicians' offices.

    The Model 9100 PFT/DICO is intended for the assessment of respiratory function through the measurement of dynamic lung volumes i.e., spirometry and other lung functions i.e., diffusing capacity.

    Device Description

    The Model 9100 PFT/DICO is composed of various sensors and valves with associated low level firmware. The firmware interfaces with the Morgan Scientific's ComPAS2 software (K213872) that resides on an on-board computer. The Model 9100 also provides for user input and present resulting data on an integral display.

    The ComPAS2 software controls valves and reads unprocessed data from the sensors in the Model 9100then determines respiratory parameters including FVC, SVC, MVV, CPF, RMS (MIP and MEP), SNIP, DLCO, MBN2 and SBN2. The Model 9100 PFT/DICO firmware does not determine any respiratory parameters.

    The ComPAS2 software uses flow and volume from the Vitalograph pneumotachograph spirometer to display the flow and volume information measured directly from patient effort. ComPAS2 also utilizes gas analyzer readings from the Model 9100 patient test benchmark to display dilution lung volume data and single / multi breath diffusion data measured directly from patient effort. This information is then provided in a report format.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes the regulatory clearance of the Vitalograph Model 9100 PFT/DICO, a pulmonary function testing device, and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not contain information about a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria related to a machine learning or AI model's performance.

    The document outlines performance testing conducted for the device's electrical, mechanical, and biocompatibility aspects, as well as software verification and validation. It explicitly states that the device uses "Morgan Scientific's ComPAS2 software to measure subject respiratory parameters," but there's no indication that this software includes an AI or machine learning component that would require a study with human-in-the-loop performance, expert ground truthing, or MRMC studies typically associated with AI/ML medical devices.

    Therefore, many of the requested details about acceptance criteria for an AI model's performance and associated study specifics (sample size for test/training, number of experts, adjudication, MRMC, standalone performance, ground truth type) cannot be extracted from this document.

    Instead, the document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on similar indications for use, technological characteristics, and principles of operation, supported by standard bench testing and software validation.

    Here's an attempt to answer the request based only on the provided text, highlighting the absence of AI/ML-specific details:

    Device: Vitalograph Model 9100 PFT/DICO

    Study Type: This document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for substantial equivalence, supported by bench testing, software verification/validation, and compliance with various standards. It is not an AI/ML performance study. The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" refers to the entire body of evidence submitted for 510(k) clearance, rather than a specific AI model's performance study.


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

    The document defines performance specifications and states that testing supported the safety and performance, implying these specifications were met. The specific "acceptance criteria" for the overall device's performance are embedded in the compliance with standards and the "similar" comparisons to predicate/reference devices.

    Intended Use

    MasterScope WSSU is a medical device to measure inspiratory and expiratory lung function parameters. With the option ECG a 12-channel surface electrocardiogram (ECG) can be measured and recorded. It is not intended for intracardial use. Automatic interpretation of the ECG is not possible for pediatric patients with an age below 16 years and for pacemaker patients.

    A qualified physician has to reassess all MasterScope/MasterScope ECG measurements. An interpretation by MasterScope/MasterScope ECG is only significant if it is considered in connection with other clinical findings. ECG interpretation statements made by the MasterScope/MasterScope ECG represent partial quantitative information on the patient's cardiovascular conditions and no therapy or drugs can be administered based solely on the interpretation statements.

    It can be used by physicians in the office or hospital.

    The MasterScope spirometry and ECG application is intended to measure adults and children aged 4 years and older. The patients must be able to understand and perform instructions of the physician.

    Device Description

    The MasterScope is a portable device, which can collect spirometry and ECG data.

    With the option Spirometry, inspiratory and expiratory lung function measurements can be performed with a wired sensor (Digital Handle USB) or wireless spirometry sensor unit (WSSU Bluetooth). Both spirometry sensors work with a pneumotach (Lilly Type Pneumotachograph).

    The Wireless Spirometry Sensor Unit is battery-powered and can be charged with a dedicated charging station.

    With the option ECG, a 12-channel surface electrocardiogram (ECG) can be measured and recorded. It is not intended for intracardial use.

    The interpretation software is intended to support the physician in evaluation the ECG in terms of morphology and rhythm.

    The MasterScope software allows protocol-driven workflows and can be customized for use in clinical trials (e.g. individual access rights).

    MasterScope provides automated and secure data transmission to a centralized data base.

    The measured data is saved into the MasterScope software and can be read out at any time.

    A printer can be connected with the notebook and all needed data can be printed. Moreover it is possible to transfer data by USB, Wifi, and Ethernet.

    The MasterScope WSSU is powered from 100 - 240V / 50 - 60Hz wall outlets. No energy is transferred to the patient.

    Intended Use

    Ascent Cardiorespiratory Diagnostic Software is intended to be used for measurements, data collection and analysis of lung function (PFT) parameters, aiding in the diagnosis of related conditions. All the measurements are performed via a mouthpiece or a mask. The test can be viewed on-line with the help of a computer screen and can be printed after the test results can be saved for further referral or report generation purposes.

    For use of the Bronchial Challenge option, the medical director of the laboratory, physician, or person appropriately trained to treat acute bronchoconstriction, including appropriate use of resuscitation equipment, must be close enough to respond quickly to an emergency.

    The product can be utilized for patients from 4 years old and older as long as they can cooperate in the performance -- no special limit to patient's sex or height.

    Measurements will be performed under the direction of a physician in a hospital environment, physician's office or similar settings.

    Device Description

    In conjunction with pulmonary diagnostic hardware, Ascent software, a Windows desktop application developed using Microsoft's NET Framework, is used to collect data pertaining to the patient's degree of obstruction, lung volumes, and diffusing capacity. It is also used to present the collected lung diagnostic information so that it can be checked for quality and interpreted by a qualified physician, usually a pulmonologist.

    The core purpose of the software is to facilitate pulmonary function testing in patients who may be suffering from pulmonary illnesses like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and asthma. The software will interact with connected Medical Graphics Corporation diagnostic devices to perform the desired pulmonary function tests on the patient by a professional pulmonary function technologist. The application will display both actual and derived test variables to the user after a test is performed for purposes of data review.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the Ascent Cardiorespiratory Diagnostic Software, based on the provided document:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

    The document doesn't explicitly list "acceptance criteria" in a typical quantitative pass/fail format within a table. Instead, it describes general validation and performance testing. However, we can infer the performance objectives and how they were met.

    Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Validation)Reported Device Performance
    Software Functionality and Safety (General)Fulfills intended use/indications of use.
    Compliant with medical device software standards & guidanceValidated per ISO 14971 and IEC 62304.
    Performance of key pulmonary function parameters within acceptable limitsPhysiologic performance validation testing conducted for FVC, MVV, FRC, SVC, DLCO, VA, and TGV. Results support intended use.
    System-level tests, performance tests, and safety testing based on hazard analysis.Validation testing conducted, including system-level, performance, and safety tests.

    2. Sample Size for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

    • Sample Size for Test Set: 38 test sessions.
    • Data Provenance: The subjects for these test sessions were "from seven to sixty-three years old." The document does not specify the country of origin of the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective.

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

    The document does not specify the number of experts or their qualifications used to establish ground truth for the test set. It mentions that the software presents data to a "qualified physician, usually a pulmonologist, for diagnostic interpretation," but this refers to the intended use, not the ground truth establishment for the validation study itself.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    The document does not describe any specific adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1). The "physiologic performance validation testing" implies direct measurement comparison rather than expert consensus on interpretive tasks.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not explicitly mentioned or described as being performed. The study focused on the performance of the software and integrated hardware, not on the impact of the software on human reader performance.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done:

    Yes, the "physiologic performance validation testing" and "software validation testing" described seem to represent a standalone assessment of the device's ability to measure and process pulmonary function parameters. The device's core function is data collection and analysis, which occurs without direct human interpretation assistance during the measurement phase. The overall intention is for a "qualified physician" to interpret the results generated by the algorithm.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

    The document doesn't explicitly state "ground truth" in the context of reference standards. However, the nature of the device (pulmonary function software) implies that the ground truth for "physiologic performance validation testing" would be the physical measurements obtained from the connected hardware devices for various pulmonary function parameters (e.g., airflow, volume, gas concentrations). The accuracy of these measurements would be compared against expected values or highly accurate reference standards, though these specific reference standards are not detailed in the provided text.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

    The document does not mention any training set sample size or details about a training set. This is likely because the device, as described, is not an AI/machine learning model that typically requires a discrete training phase with labeled data. It appears to be a software system for data acquisition, processing, and display based on established physiological algorithms and hardware interaction.

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

    As no training set is discussed, there is no information on how its ground truth might have been established.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes the SpiroSphere, a device for measuring lung function, and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device (SpiroPro). However, it does not contain the detailed information required to answer your specific questions about acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets them.

    The document is a 510(k) summary for premarket notification to the FDA. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than providing the detailed clinical or performance study results you're asking for.

    Here's a breakdown of why the requested information is absent:

    • Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (Table): The document states adherence to ATS/ERS standards (2005) for spirometry accuracy and precision and lists various parameters measured (FEV1, FVC, PEF, etc.). However, it does not provide a specific table of acceptance criteria (e.g., +/- x% accuracy) or numerical reported device performance against those criteria. It only generally states that "Tests were performed to confirm that the SpiroSphere meets the recommendations for accuracy and precision for Spirometry of the American Thoracic Society (ATS) according to ATS/ERS standards 2005."
    • Sample Size, Data Provenance, Ground Truth Experts, Adjudication Method, MRMC Study, Standalone Performance, Training Set Sample Size/Ground Truth: These details are typically found in a dedicated clinical or performance study report, which is not included in this summary. The 510(k) summary only mentions general verification and validation activities and conformance to standards.

    In summary, based only on the provided text, I cannot complete the table or answer the specific questions about the study details because that level of detail is not present in this FDA 510(k) summary.

    The document discusses:

    • Device Name: SpiroSphere
    • Predicate Device: SpiroPro (K000648) and SpiroPro with BT (K092324)
    • Intended Use/Indications for Use: To measure inspiratory and expiratory lung function parameters in adults and children aged 4 years and older, usable by physicians in office or hospital.
    • Technological Characteristics: Uses a pneumotachograph (Lilly Type) for pressure to flow conversion, measures various parameters (FEV1, FVC, PEF, FEF25-75, VC, IC, ERV) conforming to ATS/ERS Spirometry Standards (2005).
    • Testing Mentioned: Software verification and validation (IEC 62304), Risk analysis (ISO 14971), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1:2012), EMC (IEC 60601-1-2:2014), wireless technology (FDA Guidance 2013), Human Factors/Usability (IEC 62366), Biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1:2009, ISO 18562:2017), Cybersecurity (FDA Guidance 2014), Reprocessing (FDA Guidance 2015).

    To answer your questions thoroughly, a complete performance study report would be required, which typically contains the specific data and methodologies.

    Intended Use

    EasyOne Pro/LAB is designed for conducting lung function measurements in general or specialist practices or in hospitals.

    EasyOne Pro/LAB can also be used in clinical settings in occupational medicine for performing lung function screenings or measurements.

    EasyOne Pro/LAB is used to conduct lung function measurements on adults and children starting at age 4, except measurements of diffusing capacity of the lung based on CO (DLCO), which can be performed on adults and children starting at age 6.

    Device Description

    The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System consists of two different device models: EasyOne Pro and EasyOne Pro LAB.

    The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices are pulmonary function testing devices. Both EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System device models provide Spirometry and Single Breath CO Diffusion (DLCO) tests including Lung Volume Parameters. The device model EasyOne Pro LAB additionally provides the Nitrogen Multiple Breath Washout (MBW) method. The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices meet the ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision for Spirometry, DLCO and MBW tests.

    The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices can be used as a stand-alone system and can be connected to a network.

    The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices use the following sensors: An ultrasonic flow sensor to measure flow velocity, volume and molar mass of the gases that the patient inhales and exhales; a molar mass sensor which determines the helium content of the respired air for the DLCO test and the nitrogen concentration for the multiple-breath washout (MBW) test; a CO sensor (EasyOne Pro) or a combined CO/CO₂ sensor (EasyOne Pro LAB) to determine CO and CO2 content in breathing gas; a temperature and humidity sensor to collect environmental data.

    The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices are used in combination with test gases (DLCO gas for DLCO tests and O2 for MBW tests).

    The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices are used in combination with the single-patient use breathing tube ndd Spirette. For DLCO and MBW tests, the additional single-patient use accessories, the ndd DLCO or FRC Barriettes, are used.

    The single-patient use accessories prevent cross-contamination between patients. The Spirette prevents the passage of microorganisms into the inside of the flow sensor; the Barriettes prevent the passage of microorganisms into gas supply tubing.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System. It describes the device, its intended use, and compares it to predicate devices to demonstrate substantial equivalence. The document summarizes the testing performed to ensure the modified device meets performance and safety standards.

    Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document states that the EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices "meet the ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision for Spirometry, DLCO and MBW tests." While specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., ±X% accuracy) for each parameter are not explicitly listed in the provided text, the general acceptance criterion is compliance with ATS recommendations.

    Parameter/TestAcceptance Criteria (ATS Recommendations)Reported Device Performance
    SpirometryATS recommendations for accuracy and precision (specific numerical values not provided in this document, but typically involve thresholds for flow and volume measurements, e.g., ±3% or 50mL for FEV1/FVC, etc.)"The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices meet the ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision for Spirometry..."
    "Simulated Spirometry, DLCO and MBW testing, as well as testing with humans, confirmed that the modified EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices meet the recommendations for accuracy and precision for Spirometry..."
    DLCO (Single Breath CO Diffusion)ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision (specific numerical values not provided in this document)"...and Single Breath CO Diffusion (DLCO) tests... The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices meet the ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision for... DLCO..."
    "Simulated Spirometry, DLCO and MBW testing, as well as testing with humans, confirmed that the modified EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices meet the recommendations for accuracy and precision for... DLCO..."
    MBW (Nitrogen Multiple Breath Washout)ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision (specific numerical values not provided in this document)"...The device model EasyOne Pro LAB additionally provides the Nitrogen Multiple Breath Washout (MBW) method. The EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices meet the ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision for... MBW tests."
    "Simulated Spirometry, DLCO and MBW testing, as well as testing with humans, confirmed that the modified EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System devices meet the recommendations for accuracy and precision for... MBW tests."
    Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)IEC 60601-1-2 (Medical electrical equipment - Part 1-2: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic disturbances - Requirements and tests)"The modified devices were tested to demonstrate conformance with the requirements for medical electrical equipment basic safety and essential performance of standards IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2."
    Basic Safety & Essential PerformanceIEC 60601-1 (Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance)"The modified devices were tested to demonstrate conformance with the requirements for medical electrical equipment basic safety and essential performance of standards IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2."
    Software Verification & ValidationIEC 62304 (Medical device software - Software life cycle processes)"Software verification and validation in accordance with IEC 62304 confirmed that the modified EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System meets the specified criteria."
    BiocompatibilityISO 10993-1: Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a Risk Management Process"Biocompatibility was evaluated in accordance with ISO 10993-1: Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a Risk Management Process."

    Note: The document states that "For the modified devices, some of the labelled specifications were updated to reflect the technical capabilities. No changes were made to the components the specifications relate to." This implies there might be specific numerical specifications in other documentation not provided here.

    2. Sample Size and Data Provenance for Test Set

    • Sample Size: The document mentions "testing with humans" for Spirometry, DLCO, and MBW, but does not specify the numerical sample size for the human test set. It also mentions "Simulated Spirometry, DLCO and MBW testing."
    • Data Provenance: Not specified in the provided text (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective).

    3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth (Test Set)

    Not applicable / Not specified in the provided text. This device is a measurement system and its "ground truth" would generally be established by calibrated reference standards and established physiological measurements, rather than expert consensus on interpretive tasks.

    4. Adjudication Method for Test Set

    Not applicable / Not specified in the provided text. As noted above, the "ground truth" for this type of device (a physiological measurement system) is based on reference standards and calibrated instruments, not on human interpretation or adjudication.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study assesses how human readers improve with AI assistance, which is not relevant for a device that measures lung function clinically. The EasyOne Pro is a diagnostic measurement device, not an AI-based interpretive aid for human readers.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop) Performance

    Yes, the testing described appears to be a standalone performance evaluation of the device's measurement capabilities. The "Simulated Spirometry, DLCO and MBW testing" would assess the algorithm and hardware performance independently, and the "testing with humans" would validate its clinical measurement accuracy against the ATS recommendations. The device itself is designed to provide direct physiological measurements.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    The ground truth for the EasyOne Pro Respiratory Analysis System is established by technical standards and physiological recommendations, specifically the "ATS recommendations for accuracy and precision for Spirometry, DLCO and MBW tests." This would involve:

    • Calibrated reference standards: For simulated testing (e.g., known flow and volume signals, known gas concentrations).
    • Established physiological measurement methods: When testing with human subjects, the device's measurements would be compared against expected values or other validated methods to confirm compliance with ATS standards.

    8. Sample Size for Training Set

    Not applicable / Not specified. This device is a measurement system, not a machine learning algorithm that requires a "training set" in the conventional sense of AI models. Its underlying principles are based on known physics and physiological models, not data-driven learning from previous cases.

    9. How Ground Truth for Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable. As explained above, the device does not use a "training set" in the context of an AI/ML model. Its design and calibration are based on established scientific principles and engineering practices to meet specific performance standards.
