The V5Ms Transesophageal Transducer consists of a gastroscope control housing where nosepiece articulation and transducer rotation are controlled. A flexible transesophageal guide tube with a nosepiece containing the acoustic array extends from one end of the control housing and the system cable/connector extends from the other end. The acoustic array has 64 elements and rotates 180 degrees to provide imaging planes from transverse view to inverse transverse view. Rotation is powered by a motor in the control housing and is controlled by the operator using a switch button on the control housing for clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. Nosepiece articulation is achieved by manipulating a vertebrae section adjacent to the nosepiece through a series of control wires attached to knobs on the control housing. The nosepiece can be articulated in both the anterior/posterior and left/right directions.

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

Acceptance Criteria and Study Details for V5Ms Transesophageal Transducer

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided 510(k) submission document does not explicitly state quantitative acceptance criteria or specific device performance metrics in the way one might expect for a new or significantly modified device. Instead, the submission relies heavily on substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device (Siemens V5Ms Transesophageal Transducer, K052021). The key "performance data" presented is that "Performance data is not required for this modification as there is no change to software or hardware." This implies that the device is expected to perform identically to its predicate because the changes are limited to patient contact materials.

Therefore, the acceptance criteria are implicitly met by demonstrating that the modifications do not negatively impact the established performance of the predicate device.

Implicit Acceptance Criteria and Reported Performance (Based on Substantial Equivalence):

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

• Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable (N/A). The document explicitly states, "Performance data is not required for this modification as there is no change to software or hardware." Therefore, there was no clinical performance test set used. The evaluation centered on non-clinical tests for biocompatibility and asserting substantial equivalence.
• Data Provenance: N/A for clinical performance data. For biocompatibility testing, the data would typically originate from a laboratory (likely in the USA or a facility that adheres to international standards like ISO). The origin is not specified beyond "Nonclinical tests contained in this submission include biocompatibility testing per ISO10993-1 (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation)."

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

• N/A. As no clinical performance test set was conducted, there was no need for experts to establish ground truth. The primary "experts" involved in the submission would be Siemens' own regulatory and engineering teams, and subsequently, FDA reviewers.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

• N/A. Since no clinical performance test set was conducted, no adjudication method was used.

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

• No. No MRMC study was conducted. The submission is a 510(k) for substantial equivalence based on minor modifications (patient contact materials) to an existing device, not a new clinical effectiveness study.

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

• N/A. The device is a diagnostic ultrasound transducer, not an AI algorithm. Therefore, the concept of "standalone performance" in the context of an algorithm does not apply.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

• N/A for clinical effectiveness. For biocompatibility, the "ground truth" is defined by the ISO10993-1 standard for cytotoxicity, sensitization, and irritation. This involves standardized biological tests.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

• N/A. This device is a hardware component (transducer) and does not involve machine learning or AI, and therefore does not have a "training set."

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

• N/A. As there is no training set for this device, this question is not applicable.

The "Performance Data" section describes internal design, verification, and validation testing, and compliance with standards. It does not specify sample sizes for any clinical studies or data sets, nor the provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) of such data.

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

This information is not provided in the document. As there's no mention of a clinical test set with ground truth established by experts, this detail is absent.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not provided.

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

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study is mentioned in the document. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not on comparing the device's performance with and without AI assistance or against human readers.

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

The device is a diagnostic ultrasound system intended for use by a clinician, not a standalone AI algorithm. Therefore, a "standalone algorithm only" performance study, as typically understood for AI/CADe devices, is not applicable and not discussed in this document. The document describes the system providing "information to the clinician that may be used adjunctively with other medical data obtained by a physician for clinical diagnosis purposes."

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The document does not describe the use of ground truth (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.) in the context of evaluating diagnostic accuracy or clinical performance for this ultrasound system. The primary "ground truth" implicitly referred to is adherence to established technical specifications and safety standards.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not provided. The document describes a traditional diagnostic ultrasound system, not a machine learning or AI-driven device that would typically have a distinct "training set."

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

This information is not provided, as the device is not presented as an AI/ML system with a training set and associated ground truth establishment process.

This 510(k) submission (K093812) for the Siemens Acuson S2000 Ultrasound System describes the device's technical specifications and intended uses, and asserts substantial equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not contain information regarding a specific clinical study with acceptance criteria and device performance metrics, as would be expected for a novel AI-powered diagnostic device.

The document primarily focuses on:

• Device Description: Listing safety standards the system meets (e.g., UL 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-37).
• Intended Use: Broad applications for ultrasound imaging across various anatomical regions and patient populations.
• Transducer Information: Detailed tables indicating the modes of operation (A, B, M, PWD, CWD, Color Doppler, Amplitude Doppler, Color Velocity Imaging) and additional features (e.g., tissue harmonic imaging, spatial compounding) cleared for each specific transducer.
• Predicate Device: Stating the Acuson S2000 is substantially equivalent to the Acuson Antares Ultrasound System.

The "Arterial Health Package (AHP) software," which provides "capability to measure Intima Media Thickness and the option to reference normative tables," mentions that these tables "have been validated and published in peer-reviewed studies." However, it does not provide details of an internal study conducted by Siemens to prove that their device's AHP functionality meets specific acceptance criteria based on these peer-reviewed studies.

Therefore, I cannot populate the requested tables and information as a study proving device performance against acceptance criteria is not present in the provided text. The document is a regulatory submission for device clearance based on substantial equivalence, rather than a detailed report of a performance study.

This is a general statement and does not provide details of a study to demonstrate acceptance criteria. The clearance in this 510(k) is based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Siemens Acuson Sequoia ultrasound system (K052410)), not on new performance data demonstrating meeting specific acceptance criteria for a novel functionality.

Therefore, many of the requested items cannot be answered from the provided text.

Here's a summary of what can be extracted:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Not provided in the document. The submission is based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not on meeting new quantitative performance criteria described in this document.

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

Not applicable/Not mentioned. No specific test set or data provenance for proving performance against acceptance criteria is described. The document indicates that prior applications for existing transducers were "previously cleared by the FDA under premarket notifications" (e.g., #K052410, #K051139, etc.), implying their performance was established in those earlier submissions.

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

Not applicable/Not mentioned.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable/Not mentioned.

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

Not applicable/Not mentioned. The submission is for an ultrasound system and transducers, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

Not applicable/Not mentioned.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

Not applicable/Not mentioned. The document relies on "previously cleared" indications for use from predicate devices.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

Additional Information from the Document:

• Acceptance Criteria (General): The device (and its modifications) are verified and validated according to the company's design control process. This implies internal acceptance criteria for design validation, but the specifics are not disclosed in this summary.
• Proof of Meeting Acceptance Criteria: The submission relies on "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device (Siemens Acuson Sequoia ultrasound system (K052410)) for its intended uses and technological characteristics. The performance of individual transducers for specific clinical applications (e.g., Fetal, Abdominal, Cardiac) is indicated by "P=previously cleared by the FDA under premarket notifications" or "N=New Indication" for specific modes (B, M, PWD, CWD, Color Doppler, Power Doppler, Harmonic Imaging). This means the performance for these indications was established in earlier 510(k) submissions, not in this current one.

In essence, this 510(k) is a "Special 510(k)" submission, which is typically used for modifications to a manufacturer's own legally marketed device. The focus is on demonstrating that the changes do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the device as cleared in the predicate, rather than generating new performance data against specific, public-facing acceptance criteria for a novel technology.
