• Indicated for cold-assisted lipolysis (breakdown of fat) of the upper arm, bra fat, banana roll, thigh, abdomen, and flank (or "love handles") in individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or less.
• Intended for cold-assisted lipolysis of the submental and submandibular areas in individuals with a BMI up to 46.2.
· Intended to affect the appearance of visible fat bulges in the upper arm, bra fat, banana roll, submental and submandibular areas, thigh, abdomen, and flank.
· When used for cold-assisted lipolysis of the submental area, the device can also affect the appearance of lax tissue in the submental area.
- · Can be used to minimize pain and thermal injury during laser and dermatological treatments.
- · Can be used as a local anesthetic for procedures that induce minor local discomfort.
Heating or Cooling Mode
- · Can be used to minimize pain post-trauma and post-surgery.
- · Can be used to provide temporary relief of minor aches, pains, and muscle spasms.
• The ZELTIQ Pretreatment Skin Wipe and gel pad facilitate thermal contact of the device with a patient's skin by mitigating minor variances in device-to-skin contact.
The CoolSculpting Elite System is a portable thermoelectric cooling device that applies controlled cooling to a treatment site. The CoolSculpting Elite System comprises of a control unit, detachable applicators, and accessories such as cycle cards, CoolAdhesive gelpads, gel traps, pretreatment skin wipes, liners, foam borders, and comfort straps. The device treats a target temperature down to -11°C with an accuracy of ±0.5°C. The device will automatically stop the treatment if the interface temperature goes past the target temperature by more than 1°C when treating below 5°C
While the provided text describes the CoolSculpting Elite System, its indications for use, and a 510(k) summary, it does not contain any information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets those criteria, particularly not for AI/ML-based performance parameters.
The document outlines a traditional 510(k) submission for a software update (including Wi-Fi functionality) and a new S180 applicator for the CoolSculpting Elite System. The primary focus of the performance testing mentioned is to demonstrate equivalence to the predicate device and confirm that the modified system functions as intended, without raising new safety or effectiveness concerns.
The 510(k) summary explicitly states: "The modified CoolSculpting Elite System is identical to the predicate device in terms of principle of operation, mechanical features, performance specifications, software, hardware, algorithm, and treatment workflow." This indicates that there isn't a new AI/ML algorithm being introduced with this submission that would require detailed performance metrics against specific acceptance criteria for AI-driven diagnostic or treatment recommendations. The Wi-Fi functionality is for data transfer (logs, errors, diagnostics) and not for achieving the device's intended use.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for the detailed information about acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets them, as it pertains to AI/ML performance, because this information is not present in the provided document. The document concerns a hardware and minor software update to an existing device, not the validation of a new AI/ML component.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
The document states, "No other performance testing was performed for the subject device for this Traditional 510(k)..." and "No preclinical or clinical testing was performed." The only reported test is a "System Performance Test" described as "Bench testing." This implies the "test set" for this specific performance criteria was likely a single or a small number of physical devices tested in a lab setting, rather than a clinical dataset. No information on data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is applicable as it's not a clinical study involving patient data.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:
Not applicable. The reported test is a bench test, and the "ground truth" is established by the device's ability to maintain a specific coldplate temperature, not by expert interpretation of clinical data.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
Not applicable, as it's a bench test against an objective temperature criterion.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document explicitly states, "No preclinical or clinical testing was performed."
6. If a Standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
This question is not applicable to the Dermal Cooling System. This device is a physical cryosurgical instrument, not an AI algorithm. Therefore, "standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance)" is not relevant.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
The ground truth for the "System Performance Test" was the pre-defined target temperature range for the internal coldplate (-16.0°C ± 0.5°C) maintained over a specific duration (20 minutes). This is a physical performance specification, not expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
Not applicable. There is no mention of a training set as this is not an AI/ML device.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:
Not applicable, as there is no training set mentioned or implied.

This 510(k) pertains to a physical medical device (CoolSculpting System) that uses controlled cooling/heating for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes. There is no mention of Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning models, or any form of image analysis or diagnostic aid that would require the typical acceptance criteria and study designs you've outlined (e.g., MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, expert ground truth establishment for a test set).
The "Performance Data" section primarily focuses on:
- Biocompatibility: Stating no material changes were made to patient-contacting components.
- Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): Compliance with IEC standards.
- Software Verification and Validation Testing: This refers to the control system software for the device's operation (e.g., controlling dual applicators), not an AI diagnostic algorithm. It notes the software was considered "moderate" level of concern.
- Cybersecurity: Risk management for the device's network connections.
- Performance Testing (Benchtop): This confirmed the device's ability to maintain target temperatures, feedback control, and safe cooling limits, as well as the functionality of dual vacuum systems. It also discusses the updated applicator design.
- "No clinical testing was conducted." This explicitly states that no human trials were performed for this 510(k) submission.
Therefore, I cannot fill in the requested table and study details as they are not present in this document. The document describes a hardware and control software modification to an existing medical device, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.
To appropriately answer your request, the input document would need to be a technical report, clinical trial summary, or a regulatory submission (like a marketing authorization application) for an AI-enabled medical device, detailing its performance against clinical endpoints or, more commonly, against expert ground truth in a diagnostic or image analysis context.

This implies that experts (likely dermatologists or plastic surgeons, given the nature of the procedure) were used to assess the visual changes. However, the exact number of experts and their specific qualifications (e.g., "radiologist with 10 years of experience") are not specified in the provided text.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
For the blinded, independent photo review, the specific adjudication method is not explicitly stated. Typically, for such reviews, multiple experts independently assess images, and consensus or majority vote might be used, but this detail is missing.
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
No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device is a physical medical device (CoolSculpting System) for cosmetic and pain relief applications, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. Therefore, the concept of "human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance" is not applicable.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
No, a standalone algorithm performance study was not done. The CoolSculpting System is a physical device, and its performance relies on its direct application to the patient, not on an algorithm operating independently without human intervention.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth used for effectiveness was a combination of:
- Quantitative measurements: Ultrasound measurement, caliper measurement, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and three-dimensional (3D) quantification of volume reduction.
- Expert assessment: Blinded, independent review of clinical photographs (implicitly by experts).
- Patient-reported outcomes: Patient satisfaction.
- Clinical observation/Adverse Event reporting: For safety outcomes.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not describe a "training set" in the context of an algorithm or AI. The CoolSculpting System is a physical device. The studies reviewed were for demonstrating the device's clinical performance, not for training an algorithm. Therefore, this question is not applicable in the context of this device.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
As there is no "training set" for an algorithm, this question is not applicable. The effectiveness and safety were established through clinical studies and literature reviews as described in section 7.

|
| DEVICE CLASSIFICATION: | Class II, 21 CFR §878.4340
The CoolSculpting System is a skin cooling or heating device is indicated for cold-assisted lipolysis (breakdown of fat) of the upper arm, bra fat, banana roll, submental area, thigh, abdomen, and flank, or "love handles" in individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or less. The device is intended to affect the appearance of visible fat bulges in the upper arm, bra fat, banana roll, submental area, thigh, abdomen and flank. When used for cold-assisted lipolysis of the submental area, the device can also affect the appearance of lax tissue in the submental area.
Cooling with the device may also be used to minimize pain and thermal injury during laser and dermatological treatments and act as a local anesthetic for procedures that induce minor local discomfort.
The CoolSculpting System is also indicated for use to provide localized thermal therapy (hot or cold) to minimize pain post-trauma and post-surgery, and for temporary relief of minor aches, pains, and muscle spasms. The optional massage function can also be used for the temporary relief of minor muscle aches, pain, and spasm and for temporary improvement in local circulation and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.
The ZELTIQ Pretreatment Skin Wipe and Gel/Gelpad facilitate thermal contact of the device with a patient's skin by mitigating minor variances in device-to-skin contact.
The CoolSculpting System is a portable thermoelectric cooling and heating device that applies controlled cooling or heating to a treatment site. The CoolSculpting System is comprised of a control unit, detachable vacuum and surface applicators and supplies such as liners, gel/gelpads, cycle cards, geltraps, gaskets, foam borders and securement system.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the ZELTIQ CoolSculpting System, based on the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Acceptance Criteria (Effectiveness) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Primary Effectiveness Endpoint (from original IDE study for submental area - K151179): Independent panel review to correctly identify baseline photographs of the treatment area. | Correct baseline photograph identification rate by the independent panel reviewers was 91.4% (for the per protocol population). |
Secondary Effectiveness Endpoint (from original IDE study for submental area - K151179): Subject satisfaction regarding the treatment making their chin look more toned. | 75% of subjects reported that they agree or strongly agree that the treatment made their chin look more toned. |
New Effectiveness Endpoint (for lax tissue appearance in submental area - based on retrospective photo analysis): ≥ 20 mm² decrease in area as measured on both the right lateral and left lateral views of the submental region. | 77.2% (44/57) of subjects exhibited a ≥ 20 mm² area reduction in the submental area and neck. |
Concordance with physician panel review (for lax tissue appearance): For subjects showing ≥ 20 mm² area reduction, physician panel should correctly identify a visible response. | Of the 44 subjects showing ≥ 20 mm² area reduction, 42 (95.5%) were correctly identified by the physician panel as having a visible response. |
Primary Safety Endpoint (from original IDE study for submental area - K151179): (Not explicitly defined in terms of a specific metric but implied to be met and remain unchanged). | The primary safety endpoint of the original IDE approved study was met and remains unchanged since the close of the study. All device- and/or procedure-related adverse events have resolved spontaneously. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size for Effectiveness Analysis: 57 subjects (per-protocol population of an original IDE study, with one exclusion due to excessive hair).
- Data Provenance: The study was a retrospective photo analysis of data from an original IDE approved study. While the country of origin isn't explicitly stated, the context of FDA submission suggests a US-based study or one adhering to US regulatory standards.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
- For the "original IDE study" (K151179): An "independent panel reviewers" performed photographic identification. The number and specific qualifications of these reviewers are not explicitly stated in this document.
- For the "retrospective photo analysis" of lax tissue: The photographic analysis involved:
- One board-certified plastic surgeon who identified anatomical points and performed measurements.
- A "physician panel" (presumably the same "independent panel reviewers" from the original IDE study, but not explicitly confirmed) who reviewed photographs for a visible response. The number and specific qualifications of this panel are not explicitly stated in this document beyond being "physician."
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- For the original IDE study's primary effectiveness endpoint (photographic identification): It was a review by an "independent panel reviewers." No specific adjudication method (e.g., 2+1) is mentioned, only that a "correct baseline photograph identification rate" was reported.
- For the retrospective photo analysis (lax tissue appearance):
- A single board-certified plastic surgeon performed the quantitative measurements (≥ 20 mm² decrease). This wasn't an adjudication but a direct measurement by an expert.
- A "physician panel" retrospectively evaluated visible response, and their agreement (or lack thereof) with the quantitative findings was noted. The exact adjudication method used by this panel is not specified.
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
- No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study involving AI assistance was not performed. This submission describes the performance of a physical medical device (CoolSculpting System) based on human expert review of photographic evidence, not an AI diagnostic tool.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
- No, this is not applicable. This document describes a physical medical device, not an algorithm or AI system. The "performance data" section mentions "Software Verification and Validation Testing" but states it's the same as a previously cleared predicate device and does not involve AI for diagnostic purposes.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Expert Consensus/Measurement:
- For the original IDE study's primary effectiveness endpoint, the ground truth was based on the "correct baseline photograph identification" by independent panel reviewers.
- For the retrospective study on lax tissue, the primary measure of effectiveness (>20 mm² reduction) was derived from measurements performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon on anatomical points. This was then corroborated by an "independent physician review panel" confirming a "visible response."
- Subject Reported Outcomes: For the secondary effectiveness endpoint in the original IDE study, subject satisfaction (agreement that the treatment made their chin look more toned) served as a ground truth measure.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not applicable / Not specified. This submission is for an updated indication for a physical medical device. There is no mention of a "training set" in the context of an AI algorithm learning from data. The effectiveness study relies on an independent panel review and expert measurement on a test set, not on a machine learning model trained on a separate dataset. The "original IDE approved study" involved 60 enrolled subjects, but this served as the source for the test set for the retrospective analysis, not a training set.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- Not applicable. As there is no training set for an AI algorithm mentioned in this document, the method for establishing its ground truth is not relevant. The ground truth for the test set was established as described in point 7.

The ZELTIQ Pretreatment Skin Wipe and Gel/Gelpad facilitate thermal contact of the device with a patient's skin by mitigating minor variances in device-to-skin contact.
The CoolSculpting System is a portable thermoelectric cooling and heating device that applies controlled cooling or heating to a treatment site. The CoolSculpting System is comprised of a control unit, detachable vacuum and surface applicators and supplies such as liners, gel/gelpads, cycle cards, geltraps, gaskets, foam borders and securement system.
As part of the CoolSculpting System suite of applicators, ZELTIQ has developed two new vacuum applicators known as CoolAdvantage Plus and CoolAdvantage Petite. Both applicators feature the curved aluminum cup design with interchangeable silicone contours that is identical to the previously cleared CoolAdvantage applicator (K162050). They have been modified in size to accommodate different sizes of fat bulges. All other technological characteristics, including mechanism of action, and performance remain identical for the CoolAdvantage family of applicators.
The CoolAdvantage family of applicators is also provided with a new gelpad known as CoolAdhesive Pad. The CoolAdhesive Pad is comprised of fructose and glycerin in a pad made of rayon and spandex. This material is commonly used in the garment industry. It has the identical functionality as the previously cleared gelpads and is intended to provide consistent thermal contact during treatments with the CoolAdvantage family of applicators. Fructose and glycerin are considered safe ingredients and are found in commonly used products. Fructose is generally used as a food additive and glycerin is typically found in common cosmetic products such as lotion and soap. Glycerin is generally recognized as safe (GRAS per CFR §182.1320). The CoolAdhesive Pad has been tested for biocompatibility and is considered biocompatible. The performance remains the same for CoolAdhesive Pad as for the previously cleared gelpads.
The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the ZELTIQ CoolSculpting System, specifically focusing on the introduction of two new applicators (CoolAdvantage Plus and CoolAdvantage Petite) and a new gelpad (CoolAdhesive Pad). The document explicitly states that no clinical studies were performed in support of this specific submission. Therefore, it is impossible to provide information regarding a study that proves the device meets acceptance criteria based on the provided text alone, as such a study was not part of this submission process.
The FDA's decision of substantial equivalence (K171069) for this device relies heavily on its similarity to a previously cleared predicate device (ZELTIQ CoolSculpting System, K162050), which presumably underwent clinical testing for its initial clearance or was cleared through other pathways.
However, based on the information provided, I can construct parts of the answer regarding acceptance criteria and the types of testing performed for this specific submission, even though they do not involve clinical performance data.
Here's an analysis of the provided text in relation to your questions, highlighting where information is absent due to the lack of clinical studies in this specific submission:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document details various tests conducted and generally states that the device "passed successfully by meeting the acceptance criteria." Specific numerical performance data or detailed acceptance criteria from these tests are not provided in this summary.
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (Based on provided text, non-clinical):
Acceptance Criteria Category | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Biocompatibility | Passed Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, and Irritation tests consistent with ISO 10993 standards. |
Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) | Complies with IEC 60601-1 (2005+A1:2012) for safety and IEC 60601-1-2 (2007) for EMC. |
Software Verification and Validation | Tests conducted per FDA's "General Principles of Software Validation" (2002); device software considered "moderate level of concern." |
Bench Performance Testing | Design verification and usability tests were passed successfully by meeting acceptance criteria (e.g., thermal performance, thermal range, reuse, physical specifications, compatibility with use environment, treatment parameters, power and operational control, labeling, interface, and support requirements). |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable for clinical performance as "no preclinical or clinical testing was performed" for this specific submission. For bench testing, sample sizes are not explicitly mentioned.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable for clinical performance. For bench testing, the data origin is from ZELTIQ Aesthetics, Inc.'s internal testing.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- Not applicable. As no clinical performance study was conducted for this submission, there was no ground truth established by experts in the context of clinical efficacy or safety.
4. Adjudication method 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, let alone MRMC studies, were performed or described for this specific submission. The device is a physical system for aesthetic treatment, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. The device is a physical system, not an algorithm. Bench testing demonstrated the device's technical performance in a standalone manner (without patient interaction) against specifications.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Not applicable for clinical ground truth. For the non-clinical performance and safety data:
- Biocompatibility: Ground truth is established by the specified ISO 10993 standards and their inherent scientific principles for evaluating biological compatibility.
- Electrical Safety & EMC: Ground truth is defined by the requirements of IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 standards.
- Software V&V: Ground truth is adherence to the "General Principles of Software Validation" guidance and internal software requirements.
- Bench Performance: Ground truth is defined by the internal design specifications and defined performance parameters of the device.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. The device is not an AI/ML model that requires a training set in the typical sense.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable.
Summary of Device Performance Assessment in this Submission:
The ZELTIQ CoolSculpting System's K171069 submission primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to its predicate device (K162050) by highlighting that the new applicators and gelpad maintain the same indications for use, mechanism of action, and performance characteristics. The acceptance criteria for this specific submission were met through:
- Biocompatibility testing of the new gelpad.
- Electrical safety and EMC testing of the overall system.
- Software verification and validation (since the software remained unchanged from the predicate, ensuring its continued proper function).
- Bench performance testing to ensure the new applicators and gelpad performed as expected and within previously cleared parameters (e.g., maintaining the target temperature, durability, etc.).
The key takeaway is that for this 510(k) submission, the "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" refers to the non-clinical performance and safety testing outlined, rather than a clinical trial with human subjects. The substantial equivalence argument negates the need for new clinical data if the technological characteristics are sufficiently similar and safety/performance are demonstrated through non-clinical means.
