They are single use disposable, non-pyrogenic, sterile devices intended for the administration of fluids from a container into the patient's vascular system.

This is a 510(k) premarket notification for "Solution Administration Sets" by Baxter Healthcare Corporation. The document states that the devices are substantially equivalent to a predicate device (K203609 cleared on September 30, 2021).

Here's the breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study information based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document doesn't provide a specific table of acceptance criteria with corresponding performance values in the format usually seen for AI/ML devices. Instead, it describes general conformance to recognized standards and the positive outcomes of various tests.

Note: This submission is for a traditional medical device (solution administration sets), not an AI/ML device. Therefore, the questions related to AI/ML specific studies (sample size for test set, data provenance, number of experts for ground truth, adjudication, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set sample size, training set ground truth) are not applicable to this document. The "tests" described are standard engineering, biocompatibility, and sterilization validations for physical medical devices.

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, as this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device. The testing described is bench testing and biocompatibility assessments, not a study involving patient data or a specific test set in the AI/ML context.

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 this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device. Ground truth as typically defined for AI/ML models is not relevant here.

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

Not applicable, as this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device.

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, as this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device.

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

Not applicable, as this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device.

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

Not applicable, as this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device. Instead of "ground truth," the device relies on conformance to established international and national standards (ISO, ASTM, USP) and predefined acceptance criteria for various physical, chemical, and biological tests.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable, as this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device.

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

Not applicable, as this is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML device.

Ask a specific question about this device

For the administration of fluids from a container into the patient's vascular system through a vascular access device.

The proposed devices consist of Intravascular Administration Sets. These devices include Basic, Secondary, and CONTINU-FLO solution sets. They are single use disposable, non-pyrogenic, sterile devices intended for the administration of fluids from a container into the patient's vascular system.

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for Baxter Healthcare Corporation's Intravascular Administration Sets (K203609). It details the substantial equivalence determination for this medical device to a predicate device (Solution Administration Sets, K112893).

However, the summary does not contain the specific information requested in the prompt regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, expert involvement, ground truth establishment, or multi-reader multi-case studies.

The document primarily focuses on:

• Device Description: What the Intravascular Administration Sets are, their components, and how they function.
• Predicate Device Comparison: A detailed table comparing the technological characteristics of the proposed device to the predicate device, highlighting differences in length, priming volume, dimensions, and material components.
• Discussion of Differences: Explanations for each technological difference and assurance that these differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
• Nonclinical Tests: A list of bench tests (Luer tests, particulate matter, non-DEHP claim, solvent bond tests, flow rate tests, pump compatibility), biocompatibility tests (cytotoxicity, sensitization, toxicity, hemolysis), and sterility tests (barrier packaging, fluid path, shelf life, sterilization dose establishment, pyrogen testing, microbial ingress). It states that all test results meet their acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or provide detailed answers to questions 1-9 as the necessary information is not present in the provided document. The document states that "All test results meet their acceptance criteria," but it does not define what those criteria are or report specific performance metrics against those criteria. It also does not discuss any studies involving human readers or expert consensus for ground truth.

Here's what I can infer from the document, though it falls short of the requested detail:

• Acceptance Criteria & Reported Performance: The document states, "All test results meet their acceptance criteria." This implies that acceptance criteria were established for each of the listed bench, biocompatibility, and sterility tests. However, the specific quantitative acceptance criteria (e.g., maximum allowable particulate matter, minimum burst pressure, flow rate accuracy range) and the reported device performance (e.g., actual particulate count, measured burst pressure, achieved flow rate accuracy) are not provided.
• Sample Sizes: The document does not specify sample sizes used for any of the tests.
• Data Provenance: The tests are described as "bench tests," "biocompatibility," and "sterility" tests conducted by the manufacturer (Baxter Healthcare Corporation). The data would therefore be prospective, internal testing data. No country of origin for data is specified beyond the manufacturer's location (Round Lake, Illinois).
• Experts for Ground Truth / Adjudication / MRMC Study / Standalone Performance: This section of the prompt is highly relevant for AI/ML device clearances (e.g., software as a medical device). This document describes a traditional Class II medical device (intravascular administration sets). There is no mention of AI/ML components, human readers, expert panels, or comparative effectiveness studies in the context of diagnostic or interpretive performance. Therefore, questions regarding these aspects are not applicable to the content provided.
• Type of Ground Truth: For this type of physical device, "ground truth" would be established by the physical and chemical properties and performance characteristics measured in the listed bench, biocompatibility, and sterility tests, compared against established engineering standards (e.g., ISO, USP, ASTM) and internal specifications. There is no subjective human interpretation or diagnostic outcome data involved.
• Training Set Sample Size / Ground Truth Establishment (for AI/ML): These questions are entirely irrelevant to this device and the provided document, as it is not an AI/ML product. The "training set" here would metaphorically be the design and manufacturing processes refined over time.

In summary, the provided document is a regulatory submission for a physical medical device, not an AI/enabled one. Therefore, many of the questions asked, particularly those related to data sets, expert involvement, and reader studies, are not applicable to the content provided.

Indicated for use when low plasticizer solubility is desired (e.g., for administration of high lipid content solutions such as parenteral fat emulsion).

The Non-DEHP IV Fat Emulsion Administration Sets product line consists of single use disposable devices intended for the administration of fluids from a container into the patient's vascular system through a needle or catheter inserted into a vein. The Non-DEHP IV Fat Emulsion Administration Sets are indicated for use when low plasticizer solubility is desired (e.g., for administration of high lipid content solutions such as parenteral fat emulsion). These sets are comprised of a drip chamber with a non-vented spike, non-DEHP polyvinyl chloride (PVC) tubing, and a two piece Luer lock. On all sets there is a fixture slide clamp and a regulating roller clamp. Configurations of these sets differ in drip chamber (60 drops/mL or 10 drops/mL). These devices are nonpyrogenic, sterile and can be used for gravity or pump infusion of I.V. fluids using Sigma Spectrum and other Baxter Infusion Pumps.

This document describes the non-clinical performance testing of the "Non-DEHP IV Fat Emulsion Administration Sets" (K172544) by Baxter Healthcare Corporation.

1. Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided document lists various performance tests undertaken for the device. The reported performance for all tests is that they "All tests met the acceptance criteria." The specific acceptance criteria are broadly defined as "Per Baxter Test Method" for each test.

Here's a table summarizing the tests and the reported performance:

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

The document states that testing was performed on "subject device model code set configurations 2R1145 and 2R1146" or on "a worst case/representative sample."

• Sample Size: The exact number of units or samples used for each test is not explicitly stated.
• Data Provenance: The tests are described as bench tests conducted by Baxter Healthcare Corporation. The document does not specify the country of origin of the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective, but it implies prospective testing for the purpose of the 510(k) submission.

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

This section is not applicable as the evaluation involves non-clinical bench testing of physical device properties and performance, not a diagnostic or clinical assessment requiring expert-established ground truth.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This section is not applicable for non-clinical bench testing. The evaluation relies on specific test methods and their quantitative or qualitative outcomes.

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

No, a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is typically performed for diagnostic imaging devices or software where human readers interpret medical images, often with and without AI assistance. The submitted device is an administration set, which does not involve human image interpretation in that context.

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

This section is not applicable. The device is an intravenous administration set, not an algorithm. The performance testing is for the physical device itself.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

For the non-clinical performance tests, the "ground truth" is established by defined engineering specifications, industry standards, and internal Baxter test methods. These methods determine the acceptable range or outcome for each performance characteristic (e.g., tensile strength, leak integrity, flow rate, biocompatibility).

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This section is not applicable as the device is a physical medical device, not a machine learning algorithm that requires a training set.

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

This section is not applicable as the device is a physical medical device, not a machine learning algorithm.
