The t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Interoperable Technology is an ambulatory, battery operated, rate-programmable infusion pump designed for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring insulin.

The t:slim X2 insulin pump includes a disposable cartridge with a 300 unit reservoir which is filled with insulin by the user with the use of the syringe and needle. The cartridge needs to be changed every 48-72 hours depending on the type of insulin used.

The pump is motor driven to deliver patient programmed basal rates and boluses through an infusion set into subcutaneous tissue. The desired timing and quantity of insulin delivery (bolus or basal) is programmed by the patient based on their healthcare provider's recommendations.

The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, execute, and confirm commands from these devices.

The t:connect mobile app enables a user to connect a smartphone to the pump using Bluetooth® wireless technology to display pump information and perform some pump functions on the smartphone as well as display pump notifications. The t:connect mobile app can transmit pump and therapy data from the pump to the cloud as long as the user's smartphone is connected to the internet.

The pump is designed to be able to receive and display alerts and alarms to users based on information received from other interoperable devices.

The pump is compatible with Interoperable Automated Glycemic Controllers, such as Basal-IQ Technology (K193483) and Control IQ Technology (K200467) to aid in diabetes management. The latter is being submitted concurrently.

In addition, the Subject Device is compatible with iCGM systems cleared under K223931 21 CFR 862.1355.

The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the Tandem Diabetes Care t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Interoperable Technology (K232380). This submission focuses on a change to the age indication for the device, lowering it to individuals 2 years of age and greater.

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

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly present a table of specific quantitative acceptance criteria (e.g., minimum accuracy percentages, specific error rates) for the device's performance in relation to the expanded age indication. Instead, it makes a general statement about safety and effectiveness.

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

The document mentions "clinical testing was performed to support the expanded age indication" and "the clinical testing provided in this 510(k) demonstrate that the t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Interoperable Technology is the same as the predicate device in safety and effectiveness."

• Sample Size for Test Set: Not explicitly stated.
• Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective, nor the country of origin. However, the nature of "clinical testing" for an expanded age indication typically implies a prospective clinical study involving the new patient population.

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

This information is not provided in the document. The text does not describe a process of expert review or establishing ground truth in the context of the clinical testing.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not provided in the document.

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

This information is not provided in the document. The study described is a clinical evaluation of the device itself rather than a comparison of human readers with and without AI assistance.

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

The device is an insulin pump, which is a physical medical device that delivers insulin. While it has interoperable technology and can communicate with automated insulin dosing software, the "performance data" mentioned pertains to the overall device in a clinical setting with human interaction (patient programming, healthcare provider recommendations). Therefore, a "standalone algorithm only" performance study as typically understood for AI/CAD devices is not directly applicable or explicitly described in this context. The focus is on the device's safety and effectiveness for insulin delivery in the expanded age group.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the clinical testing would be the actual physiological responses and outcomes of the pediatric patients using the insulin pump, as assessed by healthcare professionals. This would include parameters like blood glucose levels, incidence of hypoglycemia/hyperglycemia, and adverse events. The document refers to "safety and effectiveness," which points to clinical outcomes.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document describes a clinical study to support an expanded age indication for an existing device. This implies that the device's core algorithm and functionality were developed and "trained" (in a non-AI sense, meaning designed and validated) prior to this specific submission. The text does not provide information regarding a training set for an AI/algorithm, as this submission is not about the initial development or a new AI component. If the "interoperable technology" involves AI, the training data for that specific AI component is not detailed here.

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

Given that this submission is for an expanded age indication of an existing device, and not a new AI model, the concept of a "training set" and its ground truth establishment, as typically understood for AI/ML, is not applicable or described in this document. The device's fundamental insulin delivery mechanism and safety profile would have been established through prior design, testing, and regulatory submissions. The current clinical testing validates the device's safety and effectiveness for a younger population.

The Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology (the pump) is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring insulin. The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices.

The pump is intended for single patient, home use and requires a prescription.

The pump is indicated for use in individuals six years of age and greater.

The Subject Device, Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology ("Mobi pump", "the pump"), is an Alternate Controller Enabled (ACE) Infusion Pump intended for the infusion of insulin into a patient requiring insulin therapy. The Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology ("pump") is screenless and includes visual LED, sound, and vibratory indicators to alert the user of the pump status. The Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology system also includes: the t:connect mobile app and a 2mL (200 insulin unit) Tandem Mobi cartridge and a compatible FDA cleared infusion set. The t:connect mobile app ("Mobile app") displays all information from, and is the primary controller of, the pump. Through the Mobile app, users will program all aspects of basal and bolus insulin delivery therapy including managing personal profiles, viewing pump and CGM data, and actively acknowledging all pump and mobile app alerts, alarms, reminders, notifications and messages. The t:connect mobile app will also be used to transmit historical pump and mobile app therapy data to the Tandem Cloud. The t:connect mobile app will be made available via the Apple® App Store for iOS compatible smartphones based on completed device verification and validation. The Tandem Mobi cartridge is a disposable insulin cartridge compatible only with the Tandem Mobi pump.

The Tandem Mobi ACE pump can be used for basal and bolus insulin delivery with or without a CGM or with any compatible interoperable automated dosing algorithm.

The pump may be used in combination with a compatible continuous glucose monitor (CGM) system, such as the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (DEN170088). Use of CGM is optional.

This document K233044 is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology. It is a "Special 510(k)" submission, which means it relies on a previously cleared predicate device (K223213) to demonstrate substantial equivalence, rather than providing entirely new data.

Therefore, the document explicitly states that "No new clinical testing was performed to support this 510(k) Notification." This means that the information requested regarding acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training set details are not present in this document, as the submission relies on the prior clearance of the predicate device.

Based on the provided text, I cannot provide the details you requested because the submission is a Special 510(k) and explicitly states that no new performance testing (including clinical, usability, software, electrical safety, or biocompatibility) was performed.

The relevant sections that confirm this are:

• "IV. Overview of Non-Clinical Performance Tests"
  • "Usability/Human Factors: No new Usability or Human Factors testing was performed to support this 510(k) Notification."
  • "Software Verification and Validation: No new Software testing was performed to support this 510(k) Notification."
  • "Electrical Safety/ EMC: No new Electrical and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) was performed to support this 510(k) Notification."
  • "Insulin Compatibility and Biocompatibility: No new insulin compatibility testing was performed to support this 510(k) Notification."
  • "Clinical Testing: No new clinical testing was performed to support this 510(k) Notification."
• "Conclusion: The Subject Device serves the same function as the Predicate Device. Furthermore, the Subject Device performs insulin therapy functions that are the same as that of the Predicate Device. The required technical documentation provided in this Special 510(k) demonstrates the Subject Device is as safe and as effective as the Predicate Device. Therefore, the Subject Device has been evaluated to be substantially equivalent to the Predicate Device and does not raise new or different questions of safety or effectiveness."

To get the information you requested, one would need to review the original 510(k) submission for the predicate device (K223213), as that would presumably contain the "new" testing data that established its safety and effectiveness.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions about acceptance criteria and study details based solely on this K233044 document.

• Program Correction Boluses, Bolus Override, and Food (Standard) Boluses.
• Terminate (Cancel or stop) all bolus types regardless of origin of bolus request being made on the t:slim X2 Insulin Pump or the t:connect mobile app.
  Outside of programming and terminating boluses, the t:connect mobile app will have no other controlling action on The Pump.

The provided document describes the FDA 510(k) clearance for the t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Interoperable Technology (with t:connect mobile app). It focuses on the addition of the mobile app to allow limited control of bolus insulin therapy.

Based on the provided text, here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

No specific quantitative acceptance criteria or detailed study results (like sensitivity, specificity, or specific error rates) are explicitly reported in this 510(k) summary for the t:connect mobile app. The submission primarily relies on non-clinical testing (human factors, software verification and validation, cybersecurity) and demonstrates substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

The clearance is for a medical device (insulin pump with a mobile app for control), not an AI/ML algorithm that predicts or diagnoses based on data. Therefore, many of the typical AI/ML study components (like expert ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, or specific performance metrics like AUC, sensitivity, specificity, etc.) are not applicable or not explicitly detailed in this type of regulatory submission for this device.

The study aims to demonstrate that the mobile app addition is safe and effective and does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate device.

Study Details

1. Sample sizes used for the test set and data provenance:
   This document focuses on non-clinical testing (human factors, software V&V, cybersecurity) and does not specify a "test set" in the context of a clinical trial or algorithm performance evaluation on a patient dataset.

   • Human Factors Validation Testing: While the document states "Human factors validation testing was conducted," it does not specify the sample size (number of participants) or data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective).
   • Software Verification and Validation: This testing involves internal software evaluations, code reviews, unit testing, and system-level testing. There isn't typically a "sample size" in the same way as a clinical dataset for these activities. The provenance relates to the software development process itself.
   • No new clinical testing was required. This indicates no patient data was used for a new clinical study to support this specific 510(k) for the mobile app.

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

   • Not Applicable/Not Specified in this context. For human factors, "ground truth" would be related to user performance outcomes and safety, assessed by usability engineers or similar experts rather than medical specialists establishing diagnostic ground truth from images or clinical data. The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts for these assessments.

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

   • Not Applicable/Not Specified. This type of adjudication is typically for establishing medical "ground truth" in diagnostic studies, which was not performed here.

4. 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. This type of study (MRMC for AI assistance) is not applicable to an insulin pump and its control app. This device does not involve "human readers" interpreting medical images or data with or without AI assistance.

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

   • Not Applicable in the traditional AI/ML sense. The software itself undergoes comprehensive standalone verification and validation to ensure its functional correctness and safety, but this is distinct from "standalone performance" of a diagnostic AI algorithm. The device, including the app, is designed for human-in-the-loop use for insulin delivery.

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

   • Not Applicable. For a device like an insulin pump and its control app, "ground truth" isn't established in the same way as for diagnostic AI. Instead, the "ground truth" for safety and effectiveness is established through:
     • Functional Requirements: The expected, correct operation of the software and hardware.
     • Usability Objectives: The desired safe and effective user interaction, verified through human factors testing.
     • Regulatory Standards & Guidance: Adherence to established medical device software, cybersecurity, and risk management standards.

7. The sample size for the training set:

   • Not Applicable. This device is not described as using machine learning that has a "training set" in the context of data-driven model training. Its functionality is based on pre-defined algorithms for insulin delivery control.

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

   • Not Applicable. No training set for an AI/ML algorithm is mentioned.
