    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) clearance letter for a medical device called "Disposable Percutaneous Nephrostomy Dilators." It's not a study report or a publication containing detailed information about acceptance criteria or specific performance studies in the way you've outlined for an AI-powered diagnostic device.

    The FDA 510(k) clearance process primarily focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving performance against specific clinical acceptance criteria through extensive clinical trials for new technologies.

    Therefore, the input provided does not contain the information requested for an AI-powered device's acceptance criteria and study that proves it meets them. This document is for a Class II medical device (Disposable Percutaneous Nephrostomy Dilators) that is a physical tool, not an AI software.

    Here's why the requested information cannot be extracted from this document:

    • Acceptance Criteria & Reported Performance: The document does not define specific performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy that would be relevant for an AI diagnostic device. Instead, it lists non-clinical performance tests (e.g., Dimensional Testing, Resistance to Flattening, Biocompatibility tests, Sterility, Shelf-life) for a physical device, and concludes that it is "as safe and as effective" as the predicate device.
    • Sample Size (Test Set) and Data Provenance: Not applicable for this type of device and submission. There is no "test set" of patient data for an AI algorithm.
    • Number of Experts & Qualifications (Ground Truth): Not applicable. Ground truth for an AI diagnostic would involve expert consensus on medical images or pathology. For this physical dilator, "ground truth" refers to established engineering and biological safety standards.
    • Adjudication Method: Not applicable.
    • MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: Not applicable. There is no human reader component to compare with AI for this physical device.
    • Standalone Performance: Not applicable. This is a physical device, not a software algorithm.
    • Type of Ground Truth: For the physical device, ground truth for its performance is based on established engineering standards (e.g., ISO for sterility, dimensional accuracy) and biological safety guidelines (e.g., ISO 10993 for biocompatibility).
    • Sample Size (Training Set): Not applicable. There is no concept of a "training set" for a physical medical device in this context.
    • Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable.

    In summary, the provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter is for a physical medical device (dilator) and does not describe the kind of acceptance criteria or performance studies relevant to an AI-powered diagnostic device.

    Intended Use

    It is used for percutaneous puncture to the renal pelvis, establishing a percutaneous approach and providing access for endoscopes and surgical instruments.

    Device Description

    The product consists of a needle tube, a needle hub, a rear end, equipment channel interface E, fiber image channel interface F, irrigation channel interface I, an obturator, a needle-free joint and a two-way water valve, and that primary package of the product contains a protective sleeve which is only used for product protection. The product is sterilized by ethylene oxide and is single use.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for an "Introducer Needle" device. It outlines the device's comparison to a predicate device and the performance data submitted to demonstrate substantial equivalence. However, it does not describe a study involving an AI/Machine Learning device or a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study.

    The performance data section (9. Performance Data) details physical and chemical performance testing, biocompatibility testing, and packaging/shelf-life testing, which are standard for medical devices like introducer needles. These tests are to demonstrate the device meets design requirements and performs as intended, but they do not involve acceptance criteria related to algorithmic performance, expert image interpretation, or human reader improvement with AI assistance.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information about acceptance criteria, a study proving device meets acceptance criteria, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, or ground truth establishment in the context of an AI/ML device, as this document pertains to a physical medical device.

    Here's what I can extract from the provided text regarding the physical device's "acceptance criteria" and "performance data" if interpreted broadly:

    Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (Physical Device)

    The document doesn't explicitly list "acceptance criteria" in a table format with specific quantitative thresholds that need to be met for each test for the "Introducer Needle." Instead, it states that "Performance testing was performed in accordance with applicable clauses in ISO 9626-2016 and ISO 7864-2016" and that the testing was "to demonstrate that the Introducer Needle met applicable design requirements." The conclusion then states, "The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the Introducer Needle will perform as intended."

    However, based on the performance tests listed, we can infer the "acceptance criteria" are implied by meeting the standards of ISO 9626-2016 (presumably for stainless steel needle tubing for the manufacture of medical devices) and ISO 7864-2016 (likely for sterile hypodermic needles for single use).

    Here's a representation of the implied acceptance criteria based on the testing performed, and the "reported performance" is that the device met these criteria.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied from testing)Reported Device Performance (Implied)
    Biocompatibility:
    No Skin Sensitization (ISO 10993-1)Met (passed testing)
    No Intracutaneous Reactivity (ISO 10993-1)Met (passed testing)

    Maintenance of Performance over Shelf-life (2 years)Met (passed shelf-life test for 2 years)

    Other Requested Information (Not Applicable to this Document as it's not an AI/ML Device)

    The following points are not applicable to the provided document, as it describes a physical medical device (introducer needle) and not an AI/Machine Learning device. Therefore, information regarding AI/ML-specific testing is absent.

    • Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable to a physical device performance study of this nature. The "test set" here refers to physical units subjected to tests.
    • Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for a physical device refers to engineering specifications and performance standards.
    • Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
    • 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.
    • If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
    • The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): Not applicable in the context of AI/ML. For this physical device, the ground truth is established by the specified engineering standards (ISO 9626-2016, ISO 7864-2016) and biocompatibility standards (ISO 10993 series).
    • The sample size for the training set: Not applicable (no ML training).
    • How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable (no ML training).

    Intended Use

    Cook-Cope Loop Nephrostomy Set: This device is used for percutaneous placement of a loop catheter in the renal pelvis for nephrostomy drainage.

    Ultrathane Nephrostomy Set with Mac-Loc: This device is used for percutaneous placement of a loop catheter in the renal pelvis for nephrostomy drainage.

    Ultrathane Suprapubic Set with Mac-Loc: The Ultrathane Suprapubic Set with Mac-Loc is used to provide bladder drainage by percutaneous placement of a loop catheter.

    Device Description

    The bundled submission includes the Cook-Cope Loop Nephrostomy Set, Ultrathane® Nephrostomy Set with Mac-Loc®, and the Ultrathane® Suprapubic Set with Mac-Loc®

    • . Cook-Cope Loop Nephrostomy Set and Catheter: The catheter is placed using standard percutaneous nephrostomy techniques into the kidney. The catheter is then secured in place by pulling the suture taut to create the distal retention loop, wrapping around the catheter shaft and knotting the suture. The latex is then folded over the suture and the excess suture is cut off. The catheter is kept in place within the patient using a retention disc.
    • . Ultrathane Nephrostomy Set with Mac-Loc: The catheter is placed using standard percutaneous nephrostomy techniques. The catheter is then secured in place by pulling the suture taut to create the distal retention loop. While maintaining traction on the monofilament, the locking cam lever is pushed down until a distinct "snap" is felt. The catheter's distal loop is now locked into position. The excess suture is trimmed off. The catheter is then kept in place within the patient using a retention disc.
    • Ultrathane Suprapubic Set with Mac-Loc: The catheter is placed using standard . suprapubic techniques. The catheter is then secured in place by pulling the suture taut to create the distal retention loop. While maintaining traction on the tether, the locking cam lever is pushed down until a distinct "snap" is felt. The catheter's distal loop is now locked into position. The excess suture is trimmed off. The catheter is then kept in place within the patient using the enclosed StatLock device.

    The subject percutaneous drainage catheter sets consist of a flexible tube with an open distal tip and drainage holes. The distal end of the subject devices has either a Mac-Loc locking loop or a cope loop. A Mac-Loc locking loop mechanism secures the distal catheter loop configuration by means of a nylon monofilament. After the catheter is placed in the desired location, the nylon thread is pulled tight to form the distal loop configuration. Then the locking cam lever can be pushed down to snap into position, thereby locking the distal loop in position. The cope loop configuration is formed by pulling back the suture, and then the loop can be locked in place by sliding a latex sleeve over the suture.

    Some catheter sets have a radiopaque marker to aid the user in placement. The proximal hub assembly of the devices provides a Luer lock hub to allow the user to connect to a fluid collection device (not subject of this submission). Accessories include introducing catheters, catheter securing devices, needles, cannulas, stylets, dilators, and wire guides.

    AI/ML Overview

    The performance data listed refers to engineering and biocompatibility tests for a physical medical device, not a diagnostic algorithm or AI system. Therefore, I cannot extract the specific information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria, study details, human reader performance, or ground truth for an AI-based device.

    The "Performance Data" section lists the following tests:

    • Biocompatibility
    • Compatibility (likely referring to component compatibility)
    • Dimensional
    • Tensile Strength (Hub-to-Shaft Bond of Catheter, Sheath, Stylet, Needles; Tip-to-Shaft Bond of Catheter; Distal Tip of Deflecting Wire; Shaft of Puncture Wire)
    • Radiopacity
    • Shelf Life following Accelerated Aging to Three-year Real-Time Equivalency
    • Packaging, Sterility and Stability

    These are standard tests for physical medical devices to ensure safety, functionality, and manufacturing quality. The document concludes: "All predetermined acceptance criteria of the testing were met. Therefore, the results of these tests support a conclusion that the Lawson Retrograde Nephrostomy Wire Puncture Set will perform as intended and support a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate device."

    Since the provided text does not describe an AI/ML device or its associated performance study, I cannot fill out the requested table or answer the questions related to AI performance, expert adjudication, or training/test sets for an AI model.

The subject device has a maximum indwell time of 96 hours (4 days) for the stent and 48 hours (2 days) for the balloon catheter and is labeled as a single-use device.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) premarket notification for the Kaye Nephrostomy Tamponade Balloon Catheter and Stent Set describes various performance tests to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than establishing specific acceptance criteria for diagnostic accuracy or clinical effectiveness in the way an AI/ML device study might.

    However, based on the information provided, I can infer the "acceptance criteria" and the "study" are the battery of engineering and material tests conducted to ensure the device's physical and functional properties meet expected standards for safety and effectiveness, similar to its predicates.

    Here's a breakdown based on your request, interpreting "acceptance criteria" as meeting the performance requirements demonstrated by the listed tests:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Since this is an engineering device, acceptance criteria are typically validated through testing to confirm specific physical and functional properties. The document lists the tests performed, implying that successful completion of these tests (i.e., the device performed as intended during the test) constitutes meeting the acceptance criteria. Specific numerical acceptance values are not provided in this summary, but the conclusion states the device "will perform as intended" and "does not raise different questions of safety and/or effectiveness."

    Acceptance Criteria Category (Inferred)Reported Device Performance (Inferred from successful testing)
    Material Safety & BiocompatibilityBiocompatible (demonstrated by biocompatibility testing)
    SterilitySterile (demonstrated by sterility testing)
    Packaging Integrity & Shelf-LifeMaintained integrity and sterility over shelf-life (demonstrated by packaging, distribution, stability, and shelf-life testing)
    Balloon Catheter Performance- Compatibility: Compatible with specified accessories/procedures.
    • Dimensions: Conformed to specified dimensions (e.g., 14 Fr outer diameter, 17 Fr tip diameter, 25 cm working length, 12 mm inflated diameter).
    • Inflation Volume: Performed as specified for inflation.
    • Rated Burst Pressure: Withstood specified pressure (40 psi).
    • Tensile Strength: Withstood specified tensile forces.
    • Radiopacity: Sufficiently radiopaque for visualization. |
      | Stent Performance | - Compatibility: Compatible with specified accessories/procedures.
    • Dimensions: Conformed to specified dimensions (e.g., 5 Fr outer diameter, 75 cm total length, 33 cm working length).
    • Tensile Strength: Withstood specified tensile forces.
    • Flow Rate: Maintained adequate flow rate.
    • Kink & Lumen Patency: Maintained patency and resisted kinking.
    • Radiopacity: Sufficiently radiopaque for visualization. |
      | Stylet Performance | - Compatibility: Compatible with the balloon catheter.
    • Dimensions: Conformed to specified dimensions (e.g., 8.5 Fr).
    • Tensile Strength: Withstood specified tensile forces. |
      | Set (Catheter & Stent) Performance | - Liquid Leakage & Gravity Flow: Performed without leakage and allowed proper gravity flow. |

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

    The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes for each specific test mentioned (e.g., how many catheters were burst-tested, how many stents were kink-tested). These are typically standard engineering tests performed on a statistically relevant sample size from manufacturing lots, but the exact numbers are not detailed in this 510(k) summary. The data provenance is from laboratory testing conducted by the manufacturer, Cook Incorporated. Therefore, it is prospective data for the device's performance under specific test conditions.

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

    Not applicable in the context of this device. "Ground truth" established by experts is relevant for diagnostic or AI/ML devices where human interpretation or clinical outcomes define the truth. For this medical device, the "ground truth" for the tests is defined by the physical and chemical properties of the materials and the mechanical performance under controlled laboratory conditions, verified by standardized testing methods.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) are for resolving discrepancies in expert interpretations, typically in diagnostic studies. Here, the "truth" is determined by objective engineering measurements against predefined specifications.

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

    Not applicable. MRMC studies are used to assess the impact of a diagnostic tool (often AI-assisted) on human reader performance. This device is a surgical/drainage catheter, not a diagnostic imaging device, and there is no AI assistance involved.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML algorithm or software device. Its performance is entirely physical and mechanical.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the medical device:

    Please note that this document is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It is not a detailed clinical study report evaluating the performance of a new AI algorithm. Therefore, many of the typical questions regarding AI-specific acceptance criteria, test sets, ground truth establishment, or clinical effectiveness studies are not applicable directly to this submission.

    The device in question is a Percutaneous Entry Set, Skinny Needle® with Chiba Tip, Disposable Two-part Trocar Needle, which is a physical medical device (needles, dilators, wire guides), not an AI software.

    Therefore, the provided document does not contain information to answer questions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 in the context of an AI-powered device.

    Instead, the document details performance data of the physical device to demonstrate its safety and effectiveness and substantial equivalence to a predicate device.


    Acceptance Criteria and Study for the Percutaneous Entry Set and Needles (Physical Device)

    This section outlines the performance testing done to ensure the physical device meets its intended design requirements and is substantially equivalent to a predicate device.

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

    The document lists types of tests performed but does not provide specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., "tensile strength must be > X N") nor the quantitative results ("tensile strength was Y N"). It only states that the devices "met applicable design requirements" and that "the results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the devices will perform as intended."

    Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance Assessment
    BiocompatibilityMet applicable design requirements
    SterilizationMet applicable design requirements
    Packaging: Distribution & StabilityMet applicable design requirements
    Shelf-lifeMet applicable design requirements
    Component CompatibilityMet applicable design requirements
    Dilators: Tensile TestMet applicable design requirements
    Dilators: Tip Integrity TestMet applicable design requirements
    Dilators: Radiopacity TestMet applicable design requirements
    Needles: Hub Union Strength TestMet applicable design requirements
    Needles: Fluid Injection TestMet applicable design requirements
    Needles: Echogenicity TestMet applicable design requirements
    Needles: Corrosion TestMet applicable design requirements

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

    The document does not specify the sample sizes used for each test. It mentions that testing was performed internally by the manufacturer (Cook Incorporated) and in accordance with recognized standards (ASTM F 623-99 (2013) and FDA's Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications for Conventional and Antimicrobial Foley Catheters). There is no mention of external data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective clinical data) as these are non-clinical, bench-top, and lab-based tests of a physical device.

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

    Not applicable. This device is a physical medical instrument, and its performance is evaluated through engineering and materials testing, not by expert interpretation of images or data to establish a "ground truth." The ground truth for these types of tests is generally defined by engineering specifications and recognized test methods.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    Not applicable, for the same reasons as point 3. Testing involves objective measurements against established specifications.

    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 not an AI device, and therefore no MRMC study was performed to assess AI assistance.

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

    Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    For the safety and performance tests (e.g., tensile strength, corrosion, biocompatibility), the "ground truth" is typically defined by:

    • Engineering specifications: Pre-defined thresholds and requirements based on the intended use and material properties.
    • Recognized standards: Compliance with industry standards like ASTM F 623-99 (2013) and FDA guidance documents.
    • Predicate device characteristics: Performance levels comparable to the legally marketed predicate device (K844090).

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is not an AI device that requires a training set.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI device that requires a training set.


    Summary for the Substantial Equivalence Determination:

    The submission demonstrates substantial equivalence by showing that the subject devices (Percutaneous Entry Set, Skinny Needle® with Chiba Tip, Disposable Two-part Trocar Needle) have:

    • Similar indications for use.
    • Similar methods of operation.
    • Similar fundamental technological characteristics as the predicate device (Percutaneous Nephrostomy Trocar System, American Edward Laboratories, K844090).
    • Differences in design specifications, dimensions, and materials are supported by a battery of performance tests that confirm the devices "met applicable design requirements" and "will perform as intended," without raising new questions of safety or effectiveness.

    The set will be supplied sterile and is intended for one-time use. The set is packaged in a peel-open pouch with a three-year shelf life.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document, K181713, is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device (Ultraxx™ Nephrostomy Balloon Catheter Set). For this type of submission, the primary goal is to demonstrate "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria through a traditional clinical study with a detailed test set, ground truth, and statistical analysis as one might find for a novel class III device or a new AI/ML-based diagnostic.

    Therefore, the information typically included in a "Description of acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" for a novel device, especially an AI one, is largely not applicable to this submission. This 510(k) explicitly states there were no changes to the subject device that would affect biocompatibility, sterility, or performance compared to the predicate devices.

    However, I can extract the relevant information regarding the comparative claims made and the assessment of equivalence:

    Device: Ultraxx™ Nephrostomy Balloon Catheter Set

    Summary of Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (as pertains to a 510(k) for substantial equivalence):

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied for 510(k) Substantial Equivalence)Reported Device Performance (as per 510(k))
    Identical Indications for Use to Predicate DeviceMet: "identical indications for use"
    Identical Design to Predicate DeviceMet: "identical... design"
    Identical Dimensions to Predicate DeviceMet: "identical... dimensions"
    Identical Materials to Predicate DeviceMet: "identical... materials"
    Identical Method of Operation to Predicate DeviceMet: "identical... method of operation"
    Identical Fundamental Technological Characteristics to Predicate DeviceMet: "identical... fundamental technological characteristics"
    No changes affecting BiocompatibilityMet: "no changes... that would affect biocompatibility"
    No changes affecting SterilityMet: "no changes... that would affect... sterility"
    No changes affecting PerformanceMet: "no changes... that would affect... performance"
    Packaging Integrity (for the new kit configuration)Met: "Packaging integrity testing following simulated distribution was performed." "All predetermined acceptance criteria of the testing were met."
    Performance as IntendedMet: "perform as intended"

    Further Details (as per the provided document):

    1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

      • Not applicable in the typical sense. This submission is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to pre-existing, cleared devices. The "test set" here refers to the device itself and its components.
      • The document mentions "Packaging integrity testing following simulated distribution was performed." The sample size for this specific test is not detailed, but it would have been an engineering/bench test rather than a clinical or data-driven evaluation of performance against a "test set" of patient data.
    2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

      • Not applicable. The "ground truth" for a 510(k) for substantial equivalence relies on comparison to a predicate device's known characteristics and performance, not on expert labeling of a dataset.
    3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

      • Not applicable. No such adjudication process is described or implied for this type of submission.
    4. 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 device is a physical medical device (catheter set) used in a procedure, not an AI/ML-based diagnostic or imaging device. Therefore, MRMC studies and AI assistance are irrelevant.
    5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

      • Not applicable. As stated above, this is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
    6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

      • Not applicable. The "ground truth" for this 510(k) is the established performance and characteristics of the predicate devices (K171601 and K032840), which presumably met their own regulatory requirements (likely via prior 510(k)s based on bench testing, limited animal/clinical data, and comparison to even older predicates).
    7. The sample size for the training set:

      • Not applicable. No training set is used as this is not an AI/ML device.
    8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

      • Not applicable. No training set is used.

    In conclusion, this 510(k) submission (K181713) for the Ultraxx™ Nephrostomy Balloon Catheter Set explicitly states that there were no changes to the device (Ultraxx balloon catheter, Amplatz sheath, and the Cook Sphere Inflation Device) that would affect biocompatibility, sterility, or performance compared to its predicate devices. The only "modification" from the predicate devices was that the two predicate devices (Ultraxx™ Nephrostomy Balloon Catheter and Cook Sphere Inflation Device) are now provided together as a convenience kit.

    Therefore, the "study" proving the device meets acceptance criteria is primarily the demonstration of identical characteristics to the already cleared predicate devices, supported by specific bench testing for the new "packaging configuration" (packaging integrity testing following simulated distribution). The success criterion for this submission was demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to the predicates, which was met as indicated by the FDA’s clearance letter.
