The piezoelectric surgical system is indicated for: osteotomies, osteoplasties, drilling and shaping of hard tissue. Including:
- Otolaryngology,
- Maxillofacial surgery,
- hand- & foot-surgery and
- plastic & reconstructive surgery.
The new device, the "Piezomed Pro", is an ultrasonic surgical modular system which has to be connected to W&H's AMADEO device (K213221). The new device is an ultrasonic surgical system whose basic function is the conversion of electrical energy into mechanical vibration.
In addition, a physiological saline solution is pumped to the treatment site with a displacement pump, depending on the treatment.
Using a control unit with electronics, the user can change several operating parameters within predefined limits:
- oscillation amplitude, 5 to 100% in steps of 5 (100 % corresponds to max. power)
- coolant flow rate via pump speed control; 5 to 100% in steps of 5 (100% corresponds to max. water quantity)
The device is activated or deactivated via a foot control.
The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the Piezomed Pro describes a surgical device (an ultrasonic surgical modular system), not a diagnostic AI device. Therefore, the information typically requested regarding acceptance criteria and performance studies for an AI/ML-enabled diagnostic device (such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, MRMC studies) is not present in this document.
This document focuses on proving substantial equivalence for a physical medical device based on:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The Piezomed Pro is indicated for osteotomies, osteoplasties, drilling, and shaping of hard tissue in various surgical specialties. This is shown to be identical to the predicate device.
- Technological Characteristics: The device's operating principle (conversion of electrical energy into mechanical vibration), frequency, operating mode, electrical classification, and components are compared to predicate and reference devices, demonstrating similarity.
- Performance Data: This section details non-clinical testing for biocompatibility, electromagnetic compatibility, electrical safety, reprocessing validation, and general performance/functional testing (e.g., life-time, falling, vibration tests).
- Software and Cybersecurity: Compliance with relevant standards and guidance documents for software development and cybersecurity is stated.
Therefore, based on the provided text, it's not possible to extract the information required for an AI/ML diagnostic device performance study. The questions provided in the prompt are geared towards evaluating the performance of an AI algorithm against a ground truth, which is not the subject of this 510(k) submission for the Piezomed Pro.
If this were an AI/ML diagnostic device, the "Performance Data" section would describe clinical study results, including metrics like sensitivity, specificity, AUC, and details about the test set, ground truth, and reader studies. Since it's a surgical tool, the performance data relates to its physical and functional safety and effectiveness, rather than diagnostic accuracy.

The drive unit for surgical transmission instruments is indicated for: drilling, milling, sawing, screwing (for positioning) of osteosynthesis screws, implants and plate systems in soft and hard tissue. Including: ENT surgery and Maxillofacial surgery
The AMADEO is an electrical drive unit, including motor, attachments and accessories, for surgical transmission attachments which is indicated for: drilling, cutting, sawing, screwing (for placement) of osteosynthesis screws, implants and plates, in soft and hard tissue. The foreseen areas of application will be: ENT (ear, nose, throat) surgery and Maxillofacial surgery. The basic function is the conversion of electrical energy into a mechanical rotary motion. The control unit is used to control the connected motor and the integrated pump. Depending on the treatment, a physiological saline solution is pumped to the treatment site by a displacement pump. A single-use sterile disposable irrigation tubing set is supplied within the scope of delivery and offered as an accessory. The integrated touch display is used to monitor the actual settings and to change, within predetermined limits, the operating parameters. The foot control is used for activation/deactivation of the motor and for changing parameters e.g. program, pump state and motor direction.
This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA for the medical device AMADEO, an electrical drive unit for surgical transmission instruments. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the NSK Primado2.
The document does not contain an acceptance criteria table or a study proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria in the manner one might expect for a new AI/software device submission. This is because the device, AMADEO, is an electro-mechanical surgical drill system, not an AI or software-only diagnostic device. The evaluation focuses on demonstrating its safety and effectiveness are substantially equivalent to a previously cleared device.
Therefore, many of the requested elements (sample size for test/training sets, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, type of ground truth) are not applicable or not explicitly detailed in the provided text as they would be for an AI diagnostic device.
However, based on the principle of the 510(k) submission, we can infer the "acceptance criteria" is that the device performs as intended and is as safe and effective as the predicate device. The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" is the entirety of the non-clinical testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
As noted, explicit "acceptance criteria" in the form of performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) are not provided, as this is an electro-mechanical device, not an AI diagnostic.

The Celeris System (reusable power pack and Disposable Sinus Debrider) is intended for cutting, debriding, and removal of thin bone and soft tissue in general ENT and Sinus/Rhinology procedures and applications would include:
· FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery) – Including Endoscopic approaches for: Polypectomy, Sphenoidectomy, Maxillary Antrostomy, Uncinectomy, Frontal Sinusotomy
· Turbinate Reduction / Turbinoplasty, including sub-mucosal resection.
The Celeris DSD handpiece is a single-use disposable debrider handle and blade permanently combined with a built-in motor that plugs into a reusable power pack that contains a power supply for motor control. The power pack is also part of the subject system. The power supply is able to auto-adapt to any voltage via the universal power cord connection. Motor control requires software on a controller board inside the power pack.
The handpiece incorporates a rotatable blade and attached RF cable for bipolar models. The blades are either standard, bipolar, or malleable. The bipolar function requires a separate electrosurgical generator (not part of this system), connected via a cable. The cutting performance is equivalent to the current Gyrus ACMI predicate models.
A trigger style button on the DSD handle, or analog footswitch (sold separately) connected to the power pack, activates the blade oscillation and a standard electrosurgical unit footswitch (sold separately) powers the binolar effect for bipolar blades. The electrosurgical generator and footswitch alone will control the RF energy delivery.
A nosecone on the DSD handpiece allows the blade cutting window to rotate left or right. The blades are offered in 2mm and 4mm variants, either straight or malleable, and standard or bipolar. The malleable blade angle is flexible, and the design allows the blade to be bent with the provided bending fixture up to 60° at the user's discretion.
A standard suction tube (sold separately) is attached to the DSD handpiece proximal suction port and a clip attaches the tubing to the power cable. The handpiece power cable plugs directly into the power pack. The non-sterile power pack plugs into a standard power outlet and only provides power to the connected DSD handpiece. When the handpiece is activated power is sent to the motor which oscillates a gear which in turn oscillates the inner blade. For bipolar models, the energy lead from the cable is connected directly to the blade and energy is provided by the separate electrosurgical generator footswitch. For bipolar models, insulation around the cutting window limits energy delivery to the surgical site.
The provided document is an FDA 510(k) summary for the Gyrus ACMI Celeris Disposable Sinus Debrider. It describes the device, its intended use, and the testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
However, the document does not describe a study involving an AI/algorithm model that processes data (like images) to provide diagnostic or prognostic information. Instead, it describes a physical medical device used for surgical procedures. Therefore, many of the requested criteria related to AI/algorithm performance, ground truth, expert review, sample size for test/training sets, and MRMC studies are not applicable to this submission.
Based on the information provided for this physical surgical device, here's an attempt to address the applicable parts of your request:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Based on the provided document for a physical surgical device):
The document details various non-clinical and preclinical tests to demonstrate the device's safety, effectiveness, and substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices. The "acceptance criteria" for a physical device like this are typically derived from recognized standards, performance requirements, and comparisons to predicate devices. The "reported device performance" indicates that the device met these criteria.
While not presented in a formal table with specific quantitative thresholds as one might expect for an AI model, the document implies the following acceptance criteria were met:
Table 1: Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (Adapted for a Physical Surgical Device)
Acceptance Criterion (Type of Test) | Description of Test | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Electrical Safety & EMC | Adherence to IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-2 standards. | Basic safety and performance testing performed in accordance with standards. |
Mechanical & Functional Performance | Evaluation against predicate devices to ensure similar operation and performance. | Verification and comparison bench studies conducted; performance comparable to predicate. |

Biocompatibility | Testing to ISO 10993-1, 10993-5, 10993-7, 10993-10. | Full GLP biocompatibility testing on file; supporting data for cytotoxicity, sensitization, and acute systemic toxicity. |
Sterility | Validation of ETO sterilization cycle. | Validated cycle to provide a sterility assurance level of 10^-6. |
Packaging Integrity | Testing to ISO 11607-1, ASTM F88/F88M, ASTM F1886. | Implied as part of overall stability/sterility validation. |
Software Validation | Software development and validation per concern level and guidance (IEC 62304). | Completed per the level of concern and guidance. |
Risk Analysis | Performed in accordance with ISO 14971. | Carried out; design verification sample sizes and tests identified. |
Here's an assessment of the other points, noting their applicability to a physical device rather than an AI/algorithm:
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: The document does not specify exact sample sizes for each non-clinical or preclinical test (e.g., how many units were tested for electrical safety, or how many tissue samples were used for performance evaluation). It mentions "representative samples" for stability testing.
- Data Provenance: The tests are described as "non-clinical" and "preclinical," involving bench testing and ex vivo bovine tissue. There is no mention of human clinical data or patient data being used for these performance tests. Therefore, concepts like "country of origin" or "retrospective/prospective" studies for patient data are not applicable to the described performance testing.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- This question is highly relevant for AI/algorithm performance where "ground truth" often comes from expert adjudication of medical images or data.
- For this physical surgical device, "ground truth" for performance is typically established by physical measurements, adherence to engineering specifications, and established biological responses in ex vivo models. There is no mention of expert consensus establishing a "ground truth" as would be done for an AI diagnostic tool. Qualifications would be standard engineering and biological testing expertise.
-
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not applicable in the context of testing a physical device's mechanical, electrical, or tissue interaction properties. Adjudication methods are typically for evaluating subjective interpretations, such as expert consensus on medical image findings.
-
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 designed for AI assistance in diagnostic tasks. The Celeris system is a surgical tool, not a diagnostic aid for human readers. No MRMC study was performed or needed for this type of device.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. The device itself is a tool that requires human operation; it doesn't have a standalone algorithm that performs a task without human interaction in the way an AI diagnostic algorithm would. The "software" mentioned is for motor control within the power pack, not a standalone diagnostic algorithm.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- For this physical device, the "ground truth" for its described performance tests are:
- Electrical/Safety: Adherence to established international electrical safety standards.
- Mechanical/Functional: Engineering specifications, comparative performance to predicate devices' known characteristics, and objective measurements of mechanical output (e.g., cutting performance).
- Biocompatibility: Results of standardized biological tests (cytotoxicity, sensitization, etc.) as per ISO 10993 series.
- Sterility: Validation of sterilization protocols to achieve specific sterility assurance levels.
- Preclinical (Tissue): Objective measurements on ex vivo bovine tissue and visual comparisons (e.g., thermal impact, coagulation).
- For this physical device, the "ground truth" for its described performance tests are:
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. As this is not an AI/machine learning device, there is no "training set."
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable. As there is no training set for an AI model.
In summary, the provided document describes the regulatory submission for a traditional surgical device. Therefore, the questions related to AI/algorithm performance, training data, ground truth establishment by experts, and MRMC studies are not relevant to this specific device submission. The device's substantial equivalence and safety/effectiveness were demonstrated through engineering bench tests, preclinical ex vivo studies, and adherence to recognized performance and safety standards.

2. Sample Size for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
The document describes non-clinical testing, which typically refers to laboratory or bench testing rather than studies involving human subjects or real-world data like clinical trials. Therefore, concepts like "test set sample size" and "data provenance" (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) in the context of patient data are not applicable. The testing would have involved a sufficient number of device units to demonstrate statistical confidence in the stated performance characteristics, but specific numbers are not provided in this summary.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications:
This question is not applicable as the device is not an AI diagnostic device requiring expert interpretation for ground truth establishment. The performance is assessed through engineering and functional testing.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
This question is not applicable for the same reason as above. Adjudication methods are typically for resolving discrepancies in expert interpretations in diagnostic studies.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:
No. This is not an AI-powered diagnostic device, so an MRMC comparative effectiveness study involving human readers and AI assistance is not applicable.
6. If a Standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
No. This is not an AI algorithm. Its performance is inherent to its mechanical and electrical design, and its operation is always human-in-the-loop (a surgeon using the drill).
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
For the non-clinical testing of this surgical drill, the "ground truth" would be established by:
- Engineering specifications and design requirements: The device is expected to meet predefined performance metrics (e.g., maximum RPM, torque, electrical safety limits).
- Established industry standards: Adherence to standards like ISO 14971 (risk management), IEC 60601-1 (electrical safety), and IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC/EMI) serves as the "ground truth" for compliance.
- Predicate device performance: The performance of the predicate device (Stryker® Pi Drive Plus Motor K152641) acts as a benchmark, with the new device demonstrating "substantial equivalence" in safety and effectiveness.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
This question is not applicable as there is no training set for an AI algorithm here.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:
This question is not applicable as there is no training set for an AI algorithm here.

The EndoRotor® System is intended for use in airway procedures including removal of granulation tissue and endobronchial lesions.
The EndoRotor® Airway Microdebridement System is a powered resection tool consisting of a power Console with Foot Control, Specimen Trap with pre-loaded filter, and a singleuse Catheter with a cutting tool mounted on the distal end. The EndoRotor's flexible design allows it to be used within the working channel of flexible bronchoscopes in tortuous paths. The Console houses the control panel, drive motor, vacuum control valve, and peristaltic irrigation pump drive. The Catheter includes a debriding cutter and allows for aspiration from the resection site through the bronchoscope working channel to the Specimen Trap.
The provided text describes regulatory information for a medical device (EndoRotor Airway Microdebridement System) and its substantial equivalence determination by the FDA. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria and a study that proves a device meets acceptance criteria in the context of an AI/algorithm-based diagnostic or assistive device.
Instead, the document details:
- Device Identification: EndoRotor Console, Catheter, Specimen Trap, Filter Set, Roll Stand (K190715).
- Intended Use: Airway procedures including removal of granulation tissue and endobronchial lesions.
- Regulatory Classification: Class II, product code ERL (Ear, nose, and throat electric or pneumatic surgical drill).
- Comparison to Predicate Device: XPS 3000 System (Medtronic XOMED, K041413). It highlights similarities in principle of operation (mechanical resection using rotational movement) and differences such as access (flexible bronchoscope vs. rigid), and components (specimen trap).
- Non-Clinical Testing: Biocompatibility, sterilization validation, pyrogenicity, shelf-life, packaging, transport, and functional testing for the catheter; design verification, power-up/set-up, functional, electrical safety, and electromagnetic compatibility testing for the console; procedural testing for the specimen trap. These tests "Met established acceptance criteria." However, specific numerical acceptance criteria and reported performance values are not detailed.
- Clinical Testing: No new clinical study was conducted. Substantial equivalence was based on prior clearance for gastrointestinal use (K181127) where the device demonstrated safety and performance in regions with thin tissue walls, implying its suitability for airway applications.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and performance data for an AI/algorithmic device based on the provided text, as this document pertains to a mechanical surgical device. The questions about sample size of test sets, data provenance, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training sets, and how ground truth was established are all relevant to AI/algorithmic device validation, which is not what this document describes.

When used with the ANSPACH Systems, the OCM-G1 Attachment and Burr Support Sleeves are intended for cutting and shaping bone primarily in otology procedures such as cocleostomies.
The OCM-G1 (Otologic Curved Micro) Attachment is an accessory to the G1 electric drill system. It is a one-piece straight attachment that is manufactured from 17-4PH and 303 stainless steels (ASTM A564 and ASTM A582). The OCM-G1 Attachment can be connected and disconnected to the distal end of the handpiece via a locking mechanism by the user. After the OCM-G1 Attachment is secured to the handpiece, it will accept and hold an OCM curved burr support sleeve assembly (previously cleared). The OCM curved burr support sleeve assembly will rotate at a speed selected by the user for cutting and shaping bone, primarily in otology procedures such as cochleostomies. The OCM-G1 Attachment is provided non-sterile and is reusable.
This document describes the OCM-G1 Attachment, an accessory for surgical drills used in otology procedures. The submission is a 510(k) premarket notification, indicating a comparison to a predicate device demonstrating substantial equivalence.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information provided:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance and How it Meets Criteria |
---|---|
Biocompatibility | Criterion: Biocompatibility according to FDA guidance (ISO 10993-1) for devices with indirect or no patient contact. |
Performance: The OCM-G1 Attachment does not have direct or indirect patient contact, similar to the predicate. It is manufactured with identical material and processing as the predicate. Thus, biocompatibility requirements have been met by demonstrating similarity to the predicate and existing evaluation. | |
Functional Performance | Criterion: Proper functionality, compatibility, safe external temperatures, and ability to connect and disconnect without tools. Performance in cutting and shaping bone as intended. |
Performance: |
- Locking feature compatibility: Tested and demonstrated.
- Temperature: Tested and demonstrated safe external temperatures.
- Disconnect without tools: Tested and demonstrated.
- System functionality: Tested and demonstrated proper functionality.
- Simulated use study: Demonstrated the OCM-G1 Attachment and curved cutting burrs perform as intended in cutting and shaping bone, similarly to the predicate. |
| Cleaning and Reprocessing | Criterion: Ability to be cleaned and sterilized effectively to achieve a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10^-6 without adverse effects. |
| | Performance: The OCM-G1 Attachment's characteristics are considered equal to or less challenging to sterilize than the currently validated "worst case" predicate device. This implies that existing validated cleaning and sterilization processes are capable of achieving the required SAL. |
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 does not explicitly state the sample sizes for the test sets in the performance data section. The performance data seems to be based on bench testing and simulated use studies rather than clinical data from human subjects.
- Provenance: All testing appears to be internal verification and validation conducted by the manufacturer, The Anspach Effort, Inc., or its affiliates. No information is provided about the country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective in a clinical context, as clinical testing was not performed or deemed necessary.
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. Given that the testing included bench tests and a simulated use study, the "ground truth" would likely be defined by engineering specifications, performance standards, and the intended use of the device, rather than expert clinician consensus on patient data.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable. This type of adjudication method is typically used in clinical studies involving multiple readers evaluating medical images or diagnoses against a predefined ground truth. The studies described are engineering verification tests and a simulated use study, which would not involve such a method.
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, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for AI-powered diagnostic or assistive devices. The OCM-G1 Attachment is a mechanical surgical handpiece accessory, not an AI device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. The OCM-G1 Attachment is a mechanical device, not an algorithm, so a standalone algorithm performance study is not relevant. Its performance is always in conjunction with a human operator and other surgical system components.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The "ground truth" for the performance data appears to be based on:
- Engineering Specifications and Standards: For tests like locking feature compatibility, temperature, disconnect without tools, and system functionality. These are likely evaluated against predefined design requirements and industry standards.
- Intended Use Performance: For the simulated use study, the ground truth is the successful cutting and shaping of bone as intended for otology procedures, evaluated by direct observation and measurement against expected outcomes.
- Predicate Device Equivalence: A significant part of the submission relies on demonstrating that the device performs "the same as the predicate (K131053)" in various aspects, implying the predicate's established safety and effectiveness serve as a practical ground truth.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. The OCM-G1 Attachment is a mechanical device, not an AI or machine learning algorithm, and therefore does not have a "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable, as there is no training set for this mechanical device.

The CORE 2 Console contains a touch screen graphical user interface (GUI), which allows the user to program a number of customized settings related to the connected devices and irrigation.
This FDA 510(k) summary is for the Stryker Consolidated Operating Room Equipment (CORE) 2 Console. It asserts substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Stryker Consolidated Operating Room Equipment (CORE) System, K112593) rather than defining specific acceptance criteria for a novel device and then proving it meets them. Therefore, many of the requested categories related to algorithmic performance and ground truth establishment are "Not Applicable" or "Not Provided" in this document.
Here's a breakdown of the available information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
As this is a substantial equivalence submission, explicit quantitative acceptance criteria for novel performance metrics are not specified in the document. Instead, the focus is on demonstrating that the device meets established regulatory standards and performs comparably to its predicate.
Category | Acceptance Criteria (Implied / Stated) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Electrical Safety | Compliance with IEC 60601-1 | The device complies with the IEC 60601-1 standard for safety. |
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) | Compliance with IEC 60601-1-2 | The device complies with the IEC 60601-1-2 standard for EMC. |
Software Verification & Validation | Adherence to FDA's "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices" (Moderate Level of Concern) | Software verification and validation testing was conducted, and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA guidance. |
Mechanical Performance | Correct functionality of the console as specified, reliability, use life, compatibility with accessories, torque mapping, capacitive touchscreen. | Design verification activities performed to ensure correct functionality: Reliability and Use Life Testing, Compatibility Testing, Performance testing for torque mapping capability and capacitive touchscreen. Results are not quantified but assumed to be acceptable. |
Human Factors/Usability | Compliance with FDA's "Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Optimize Medical Device Design" and IEC 62366-1 | Human factors analysis and usability testing was performed in accordance with the specified FDA guidance and IEC standard. |
Biocompatibility | No direct or indirect patient contact (matching predicate) | Not required as the CORE 2 Console is identical to the predicate device in that there are no components with direct or indirect patient contact. |
Clinical Performance | Not applicable for this device as per the submission. | Not applicable – data from clinical studies was not provided. Clinical studies are not required to demonstrate safety or feasibility. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: Not specified for any of the performance tests. The document broadly states "Reliability and Use Life Testing," "Compatibility Testing," and "Performance testing for torque mapping capability and capacitive touchscreen" were conducted but does not provide numbers of units tested or duration of tests.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but given it's a device manufacturer submitting to the FDA, it is presumed to be internal testing data from the company's facilities. The document does not indicate country of origin of data or whether it was retrospective or prospective.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
- Not Applicable/Not Provided. For a device of this nature (surgical console), "ground truth" usually refers to the accuracy or correctness of an AI algorithm's output relative to established medical fact. As this is not an AI-driven diagnostic or prescriptive device, and the submission is focused on substantial equivalence of hardware/software functionality, this concept of "ground truth" in the context of expert review does not apply directly. The performance tests would be validated against engineering specifications and industry standards by qualified engineers and testers.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not Applicable/Not Provided. Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1 for consensus) are typically used in clinical studies or for evaluating AI diagnostic performance where human expert discrepancy needs resolution. This submission focuses on engineering and regulatory compliance, not clinical diagnostic accuracy requiring expert consensus adjudication.
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. An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not conducted as this is not an AI-assisted diagnostic or interpretation device that would involve human "readers" or image interpretation. The device is a surgical console that powers other instruments.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not Applicable. This is not an AI-driven algorithm with a "standalone" diagnostic or predictive function. The software mentioned "accommodate internal circuitry redesigns" and manages "illumination rings," "GUI workflow," and "transfer saved use-preference profiles." The "software verification and validation testing" would assess the standalone functionality of the software's control over the console's operations, but not in the sense of an "AI algorithm."
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
- Engineering Specifications and Regulatory Standards. For this device, the "ground truth" for its performance tests would be adherence to documented engineering specifications and compliance with relevant international standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2) and the stated indications for use.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not Applicable/Not Provided. This device does not use machine learning or AI that requires a "training set" of data in the conventional sense. The "software was rewritten" and verified/validated, but this refers to traditional software development, not AI model training.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
- Not Applicable/Not Provided. As there is no "training set" for an AI model, this question is not relevant to this submission.
