    Intended Use

    Numen™ Coil Embolization System is intended to endovascularly obstruct or occlude blood flow in vascular abnormalities of the neurovascular and peripheral vessels.

    Numen™ Coil Embolization System is indicated for endovascular embolization of:

    • Intracranial aneurysms
    • Other neurovascular abnormalities such as arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous fistulae
    • Arterial and venous embolizations in the peripheral vasculature

    NumenFR™ Detachment System is intended for use with MicroPort NeuroTech Numen™ Coil Embolization System in the embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other vascular abnormalities of the neuro and peripheral vasculature.

    Device Description

    The Numen™ Coil Embolization System is designed to be used in conjunction with the NumenFRTM Detachment System (sold separately) for endovascular embolization of vascular abnormalities described in the intended use. The Numen™ Coil Embolization System is composed of an introducer sheath and the coil system (pusher and coil implant). The coil is a permanent implant intended to occlude blood flow in vascular abnormalities. The pusher is used to deliver the coil implant to the target lesion. The MicroPort NeuroTech NumenFRTM Detachment System is a sterile, handheld, single-patient use device designed for use with MicroPort NeuroTech Numen™ Coil Embolization System. The device is operated by two pre-loaded batteries.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the Numen™ Coil Embolization System and NumenFR™ Detachment System submitted to the FDA. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through various performance tests and comparisons. It is not an AI/ML device, and thus does not include information typically found in studies for AI/ML devices. Therefore, a direct answer to the request based solely on the provided text, especially regarding AI/ML-specific acceptance criteria, ground truth, and human reader studies, is not possible.

    However, I can extract the general acceptance criteria and performance results as described for this medical device (a coil embolization system), even though they are not related to AI/ML. The provided document details a series of non-clinical performance tests and biocompatibility assessments to establish substantial equivalence.

    Here's an attempt to answer based on the provided text, indicating where information is present and where it is not applicable or unavailable given the nature of the device and the document:


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for Numen™ Coil Embolization System and NumenFR™ Detachment System (Non-AI/ML Medical Device)

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

    • Sample Size: The document does not specify exact numerical sample sizes for each test (e.g., number of coils tested for fatigue). It generally refers to "test units representative of final finished devices." For the animal study, it mentions "a canine model" but not the number of animals.
    • Data Provenance: The studies are non-clinical (bench testing, in vitro, and in vivo animal studies). There's no mention of human clinical data or geographical origin of such data.

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

    This information is not applicable as the document describes a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML system. Ground truth in this context refers to established engineering specifications, biocompatibility standards (e.g., ISO and ASTM standards), and observed physical/biological performance rather than expert interpretation of medical images or data.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not Applicable. As this is not an AI/ML diagnostic device involving human interpretation, there is no mention of adjudication methods for a test set. Acceptance is based on meeting predefined engineering and biological performance metrics.

    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 a physical medical device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. No MRMC study was conducted or is relevant for this type of device.

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

    Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device. There is no algorithm to test in a standalone manner.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for this device's performance validation is based on:

    • Established engineering specifications: Pre-defined dimensional, material, and functional criteria.
    • International Standards: Compliance with ISO (e.g., 10993 series for biocompatibility, 11135 for sterilization) and ASTM (e.g., F2129 for corrosion, F2119 for MR compatibility) standards.
    • Predicate Device Performance: Benchmarking against legally marketed predicate devices to demonstrate "substantial equivalence."
    • In-vivo animal model outcomes: Evaluating device performance in a canine model for acute and chronic time points.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

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

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

    Not Applicable. As there is no training set for an AI/ML model, this question is not relevant to the provided documentation.
