    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes the GE Medical Systems Ultrasound and Primary Care Diagnostics' Venue Go device and its 510(k) premarket notification. However, it does not include information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria, as typically understood in the context of diagnostic performance (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy).

    Instead, the document details the device's technical specifications, intended use, comparison to predicate devices, and compliance with non-clinical safety standards (acoustic output, biocompatibility, electrical safety, etc.). The "Summary of Non-Clinical Tests" section outlines various standards the device complies with, but these are safety and engineering standards, not performance criteria for a diagnostic algorithm.

    Specifically, the "Summary of Clinical Tests" section explicitly states: "The subject of this premarket submission, Venue Go, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence." This means that no clinical performance study was conducted to establish diagnostic accuracy metrics for the device itself. The substantial equivalence argument is based on its similarity to existing, legally marketed ultrasound systems.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving their fulfillment, as it is not present in the provided text.

    If you have a document that describes the diagnostic performance claims and supporting studies for the Venue Go or a similar medical device, please provide that text, and I will be able to answer your questions.

    AI/ML Overview

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

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The provided FDA 510(k) summary does not contain specific acceptance criteria or quantitative performance metrics for the device itself. Instead, the submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device by comparing:

    • Clinical Indications for Use: Similar, with some additions cleared on reference devices.
    • Technological Characteristics: Same fundamental scientific technology.
    • Safety and Effectiveness: Assessed through non-clinical tests.
    • Imaging Modes and Transducers: Largely identical or similar, with additions cleared on reference devices.
    • Features/Functionality: Modifications or additions that are similar to features already cleared on predicate or reference devices.

    Therefore, a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance, as typically understood for AI/ML device performance, cannot be constructed from this document. The "performance" being demonstrated here is the device's adherence to safety standards and its functional equivalence to existing cleared devices.

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

    The document explicitly states: "The subject of this premarket submission, Venue, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence."

    Therefore, there was no test set as part of a clinical study for this 510(k) submission, and consequently, no sample size or data provenance information.

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

    As no clinical study was required and no test set was used, this information is not applicable and not provided in the document.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    As no clinical study was required and no test set was used, this information is not applicable and not provided in the document.

    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

    The document explicitly states: "The subject of this premarket submission, Venue, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence."

    Therefore, no MRMC study was performed, and this information is not applicable and not provided in the document. The device descriptions focus on general ultrasound functionalities without specific mention of AI-assisted diagnostic features that would warrant such a study. While some "automated tools" are mentioned, their performance is established through similarity to pre-cleared features, not through comparative effectiveness studies in this submission.

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

    The document states: "The subject of this premarket submission, Venue, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence."

    Therefore, no standalone performance study was done for this submission, and this information is not applicable and not provided in the document.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    As no clinical study was required and no test set was used, this information is not applicable and not provided in the document. The substantial equivalence argument relies on comparison to predicate and reference devices, not on direct ground truth validation in a clinical setting for this specific submission.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    The document explicitly states: "The subject of this premarket submission, Venue, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence."

    Since no clinical studies were performed, and the submission does not describe the development or training of new AI/ML algorithms requiring a training set, this information is not applicable and not provided in the document. The "automated tools" mentioned are described as modifications or similar to features already cleared on other devices.

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

    As no training set was used for a clinical study in this submission, this information is not applicable and not provided in the document.

Transducer and patient contact materials are biocompatible. Acoustic power levels are below FDA limits.
    Performance (Non-Clinical)Measurements, Digital Image Capture, Review, Reporting Equivalence: The new device must have similar capabilities in these aspects compared to predicate devices.
    Image Rotation: New rotational capabilities should be minor changes to previously cleared functionality.
    Quality Assurance: Application of robust quality assurance measures during development.The LOGIQ P9/P7 systems have similar capabilities to predicate LOGIQ P9/P7 systems in terms of performing measurements, capturing digital images, reviewing, and reporting studies. Image rotation for 90° and 270° is a minor change to the previously cleared 180° rotation. Quality assurance measures applied include Risk Analysis, Requirements Reviews, Design Reviews, Unit-level testing (Module verification), Integration testing (System verification), Performance testing (Verification), and Safety testing (Verification).

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

    Not applicable. The document states: "The subject of this premarket submission, LOGIQ P9 and LOGIQ P7, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence." Therefore, no test set data of patients or clinical images were collected, and no provenance information is provided.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

    Not applicable. As no clinical studies were performed, no ground truth needed to be established by experts for a test set.

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

    Not applicable. No clinical test set.

    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. No clinical studies were carried out, and the device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool as described in the context of improving human reader performance.

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

    Not applicable. The device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, not a standalone algorithm.

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

    Not applicable. No clinical ground truth was established for a test set. The ground truth for proving substantial equivalence was based on regulatory compliance and comparison to existing cleared devices.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. No machine learning algorithm or training set is mentioned in the context of this 510(k) submission for demonstrating substantial equivalence. The "training" of the device refers to its engineering and verification processes in compliance with standards, not a machine learning training set.

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

    Not applicable. No machine learning algorithm or training set with associated ground truth is referenced.
