This is a traditional 510(k) submission for a medical device (Single Use Reloadable Clip Applicators and Clips) and not an AI/ML medical device. Therefore, the information regarding acceptance criteria and study proving AI/ML device performance (e.g., sample size, expert ground truth, MRMC studies) is not applicable or present in the provided text.

The provided document describes the predicate device and the new device, and focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence primarily through non-clinical performance data (sterilization/shelf life, biocompatibility, and bench testing). No clinical or animal studies were conducted.

Here's how the provided information relates to your request, with a clear indication of what is not present because it's not an AI/ML device:

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

The document mentions that "The design verification tests and their acceptance criteria were identified and performed as a result of this risk analysis assessment" (Section 5.7 (6)). However, it does not provide a specific table laying out the acceptance criteria and the reported performance results for each test. It lists the types of performance tests conducted:

• Performance Tests Performed (Bench Testing):
  • Insertability
  • Clip opening width
  • Clip rotatability
  • Clip capability
  • Withdrawal from endoscope
  • Applicator repetition
  • Endoscope compatibility
  • Clip tail length
  • Retention capability
  • MRI testing
  • Package integrity testing
  • Mechanical testing

The document states these tests were conducted "to ensure that the subject device performs as intended and meet design specifications," implying they met the internal acceptance criteria, but the specific values or thresholds are not detailed.

Regarding your other points (which are highly relevant for AI/ML devices but not for this traditional device):

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

• Not Applicable/Not Provided for this device. This device did not undergo clinical or animal studies for substantial equivalence. Bench testing data is typically generated in a lab setting, not from patient data.

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

• Not Applicable. Ground truth, in the context of expert review for diagnostic AI, is not relevant for this device. Its performance is evaluated through physical and mechanical bench tests, not through expert interpretation of data.

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

• Not Applicable. No expert review or adjudication process is mentioned, as it's not relevant for this type of device's performance evaluation.

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 study was NOT done. This is a mechanical device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

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

• Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

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

• Not Applicable. The "ground truth" for this device's performance is derived from physical measurements and engineering specifications in bench testing, not clinical outcomes or expert interpretation of patient data.

8. The sample size for the training set:

• Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML device, so there is no training set mentioned.

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

• Not Applicable. As there's no training set, there's no ground truth establishment process for it.

In summary: The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a traditional, non-AI medical device (surgical clips and applicators). Therefore, the detailed requirements for AI/ML device performance studies, such as data provenance, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, and training set information, are not present or applicable. The submission relies on non-clinical (bench) testing, sterilization, and biocompatibility data to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

Ask a specific question about this device

ClearEndoclip is intended to be used with FDA-cleared endoscopic clip placement within the gastrointestinal tract. It is indicated to be used for

• (1) Endoscopic marking
• (2) Hemostasis for
• (a) Mucosal/sub-mucosal defects

ClearEndoclip is a sterile device consisting of a pre-loaded, single-use, endoscopic clipping device with two main components: the (clip-fixing) delivery system and the clip. Clip is pre-loaded in the clip fixing delivery system, connected with an operation wire. Clip will open when the slider of the clip fixing device is pushed, and closed when it is pulled towards the operator. The clip could be closed and re-opened up to five times. When the slider is pulled further, the clip closes completely. The clip will be released when the slider is pushed. The delivery system consists of a handle and delivery catheter. The delivery system is constructed using stainless steel. HDPE outer sheath, and polypropylene stopper materials. The delivery system will allow for the device to rotate at the distal end. The ClearEndoclip is offered in 165cm and 230cm working lengths.

ClearEndoclip consists of two main components, first, the endoscopic clip, which gets physically deployed and placed as a hemostatic purpose clip in the patient's gastrointestinal tract and second, the delivery system, known as a clip fixing device used to deliver the endoscopic clip under the use of an endoscope.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study information for the ClearEndoclip device, based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state numerical acceptance criteria in a table format, nor does it provide specific quantitative performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, or a pass/fail percentage for a diagnostic or AI-driven device.

Instead, the performance data section focuses on demonstrating conformance to established standards and comparing the device's characteristics to a predicate device. The general acceptance criterion seems to be "demonstrates equivalent safety and performance profile as the predicate device" and "conformance to the appropriate recognized standards of FDA, ISO 10993-1 (2009)."

Here's a summary of the performance claims:
