The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and summary for the Intraosseous Infusion Needles does not contain the detailed information necessary to answer most of the questions you've posed regarding acceptance criteria and study particulars.
This document focuses on justifying "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device, primarily by demonstrating that changes to the sterilization process do not negatively impact safety or effectiveness. It explicitly states that "No additional performance testing was conducted because the design of the subject device is identical to the predicate, K160887."
Therefore, I can only provide limited information based on the text.
Here's what can be inferred and what cannot:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria or performance metrics for the device's primary function (intraosseous infusion). The "performance testing" described is related only to the sterilization process.
| Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Criteria (from document) | Reported Device Performance (from document) |
|---|---|---|
| Sterilization Efficacy | Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of $10^{-6}$ | Not explicitly stated as "met" an acceptance criterion, but the Ethylene Oxide Sterilization Performance Qualification was conducted to validate changes to the sterilization cycle parameters. This implies the SAL of $10^{-6}$ was achieved with the new process. |
| Residuals | Compliance with ISO 10993-7 for Ethylene Oxide (EO) and Ethylene Chlorohydrin (ECH) residuals | Evaluation of EO and ECH residuals was conducted, implying compliance. |
| Biocompatibility | Identical to predicate in formulation, processing, sterilization method, geometry, and no other chemicals added. | Device is identical to the predicate in these aspects, addressing biocompatibility by proxy with the predicate. |
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Test Set Sample Size: Not specified for any performance testing related to the device's functional use or even for the sterilization validation beyond general statements of "performance testing was conducted."
- Data Provenance: Not specified.
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. The document does not describe studies requiring expert ground truth for device performance related to patient outcomes or imaging. The testing focuses on sterilization process validation.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable. The document does not describe studies requiring adjudication.
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 device is a physical medical needle, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This device is a physical medical needle, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
For the sterilization validation, the "ground truth" would be objective laboratory measurements and adherence to international standards (e.g., ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135 and ISO 10993-7) for sterility and residuals. It's not related to clinical "ground truth" like pathology or outcomes.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an AI model requiring a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable.

Therefore, the information requested about acceptance criteria and studies related to AI/ML device performance (e.g., sample size for test sets, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training set details) does not apply to this specific device.
The 510(k) submission for the Promisemed Safety Huber Needles focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K243332) primarily through non-clinical performance testing for physical and mechanical properties, and a comparison of technological characteristics.
Here's a breakdown of the relevant information provided in the document:
Device Description and Purpose:
The Promisemed Safety Huber Needle is a non-coring intravascular infusion set with a right-angle needle and a manually activated needle-stick prevention safety mechanism. It is used to access surgically implanted vascular ports and, for the high-pressure resistant model, can be used for high-pressure injection of contrast media for CT imaging. It is for adult use only.
Nature of This Submission:
This 510(k) submission is for a device modification that primarily involves:
- Addition of new needle lengths (16mm, 17mm, 20mm) for Type D and Type E needles.
- Addition of a new specification: "without lubrication" for the needle tip.
The manufacturer asserts that these changes "do not introduce new risks as the fundamental technology and operation remain the same" and that the device remains "substantially equivalent" to its predicate device.
Acceptance Criteria and Study for This Device:
Since this is a physical medical device and not an AI/ML system, the "acceptance criteria" are based on meeting established performance specifications and international standards for hypodermic needles and infusion sets. The "study" that proves the device meets these criteria is the suite of non-clinical (bench) tests performed.
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
The document lists the types of tests performed and the standards they adhere to, implying that the acceptance criteria are successful completion according to these standards. It does not provide specific quantitative acceptance thresholds (e.g., "puncture force must be X-Y Newtons") nor the raw performance data, but rather states that "All verification and validation tests passed without deviations."
| No. | Test Item | Standard | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. | Appearance and cleanliness | ISO 7864:2016 | Passed without deviations. Conforms to specified appearance and cleanliness requirements. |
| 2. | Dimension of needle tube | ISO 9626:2016 | Passed without deviations. Conforms to specified dimensional tolerances. |
| 3. | Needle point | ISO 7864:2016 | Passed without deviations. Conforms to specified needle point characteristics. |
| 4. | Fragment | ASTM F3212-16 | Passed without deviations. No fragments detected. |
| 5. | Needle sheath and cap | / (Internal) | Passed without deviations. Conforms to specified design and functionality. |
| 6. | Puncture force of needle | ISO 7864:2016 | Passed without deviations. Conforms to specified puncture force requirements. |
| Overall | Verification & Validation | Various / Internal | All verification and validation tests passed without deviations, confirming that the subjective device meet the necessary design specifications and regulatory requirements. The tests demonstrated that the product modifications did not introduce any new risks related to safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated in the 510(k) summary. For physical device performance testing, sample sizes are typically determined by statistical methods based on specified confidence levels or are prescribed by the testing standards themselves (e.g., a certain number of units per lot).
- Data Provenance: The tests were conducted by Promisemed Hangzhou Meditech Co., Ltd. in China ("Promisemed Hangzhou Meditech Co., Ltd. completed the following non-clinical tests"). This is a retrospective collection of data for the purpose of the 510(k) submission.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- N/A. This concept applies to AI/ML device ground truth establishment, often involving clinical image interpretation. For a physical device like a needle, "ground truth" is established by adherence to engineering specifications and international standards, tested by qualified engineers and technicians using calibrated equipment.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- N/A. This concept relates to human expert consensus in clinical data annotation for AI/ML validation. Physical device testing relies on objective measurements against defined criteria.
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:
- N/A. An MRMC study is for evaluating the impact of AI assistance on human diagnostic performance. This device is a physical medical instrument, not an AI software.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- N/A. This pertains to AI algorithm performance. The device here is a standalone physical needle.
7. The type of ground truth used:
- Engineering Specifications and International Standards: For a physical device, "ground truth" is adherence to predefined engineering specifications (e.g., dimensions, material properties, force resistance) and compliance with internationally recognized standards (like ISO 7864, ISO 9626, ASTM F3212). The testing confirms that the device's physical properties and functionality meet these established objective benchmarks.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- N/A. This concept is relevant for AI/ML model development. This device does not involve a "training set" in the computational sense.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- N/A. As above, this applies to AI/ML.
Summary of Key Takeaways from the Document:
The 510(k) submission successfully demonstrated substantial equivalence by confirming through non-clinical testing that the modified Promisemed Safety Huber Needles:
- Maintain the same intended use, technological characteristics, and principle of operation as the predicate device.
- The added needle lengths and the "without lubrication" option do not introduce new safety or effectiveness risks.
- All required performance tests (appearance, dimensions, needle point, fragment, sheath/cap, puncture force) passed without deviations, confirming adherence to relevant ISO and ASTM standards.
- No clinical testing was deemed necessary for this type of modification, reinforcing that the changes were not considered to impact fundamental safety or effectiveness parameters requiring human clinical data.

Study Details
The provided document primarily details design verification and validation testing, not a traditional clinical study with patient data.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- The document does not specify sample sizes for individual performance tests (e.g., filtration efficiency, residual volume, needle penetration, biocompatibility). It generally states "Performance Data" and lists categories of tests performed.
- Data Provenance: The nature of the tests (e.g., ISO standard testing, biocompatibility) implies lab-based testing rather than patient data. There is no mention of country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective in the context of patient data.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- This concept is not applicable as the studies described are engineering and bench testing rather than clinical or diagnostic studies requiring expert review for ground truth establishment. The ground truth for these tests is defined by international standards (e.g., ISO 7864, ISO 10993-1) and objective measurements.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are typically used in clinical studies for resolving discrepancies in expert interpretations of patient data. This is not relevant to the engineering and bench testing described in this 510(k) summary.
-
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 MRMC study or any study involving human readers/AI assistance was conducted or described. The device is a physical medical device (hypodermic needle with a filter), not an AI-powered diagnostic tool.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. This is not an algorithm-based device.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- For the engineering and performance tests, the "ground truth" is based on:
- Defined specifications and standards: Adherence to ISO standards (e.g., ISO 7864 for needle requirements, ISO 10993-1 for biocompatibility).
- Physical measurements: For parameters like filtration efficiency (e.g., 5-micron particle filtration) and residual volume, these are direct, objective measurements against defined targets.
- Comparison to a reference device: The BBraun Filter Straw serves as a performance benchmark for the filtering capability and residual volume.
- For the engineering and performance tests, the "ground truth" is based on:
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not a machine learning or AI-driven device.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

Needle Gauge: 25G, 27G
The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and summary for the "Disposable Aqueous Humor Collector" does not contain acceptance criteria or a detailed study description of device performance, beyond general statements about compliance with ISO standards and a brief mention of an OUS study.
The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (StaClear Syringe) by comparing specifications and stating that differences do not raise new safety or effectiveness concerns, supported by various non-clinical tests (biocompatibility, sterility, bench functional performance).
Therefore, I cannot fulfill the request to provide the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them based solely on the provided text. The document refers to testing being performed, but does not present the specific acceptance criteria or the detailed results of those tests.
However, I can extract the information that is present and highlight what is missing based on your request:
Missing Information: The provided document states that "required testing was conducted to validate the cumulative modifications made to the subject devices" and that "Substantial Equivalence is being supported with full performance testing," including bench functional performance tests. It also mentions "An outside of the United States (OUS) study was performed demonstrating the effectiveness of the subject device to collect 50 uL of liquid with the 50 uL model." However, it does not detail the specific acceptance criteria for these tests, nor does it provide a full study report with reported device performance against those criteria.
Here is what can be extracted and what is missing:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Acceptance Criteria (Stated or Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Bench Functional Performance: | |
| ISO 7886-1:2017: Sterile hypodermic syringes for single use. Part 1: Syringes for manual use | "Complied" |
| ISO 9626:2016: Stainless steel needle tubing for the manufacture of medical devices — Requirements and test methods | "Complied" |
| ISO 7864:2016: Sterile hypodermic needles for single use — Requirements and test methods | "Complied" |
| Needle point penetration force: $\le$ 0.70N | (Not explicitly reported, but implied to be met for compliance with ISO 9626) |

| Irritation; Intracameral Injection: Not considered inflammatory to intraocular tissues | "Not considered inflammatory to intraocular tissues" |
| Sterility: SAL 10^-6 | "SAL: 10^-6" (achieved via Irradiation sterilization) |
| Shelf Life: 2 years | "Confirms the 2 year shelf life" |
| USP <788> Particulate Matter in Injection: (Specific criteria not provided) | (Not explicitly reported, but implied compliance) |
| USP <789> Particulate Matter in ophthalmic solutions: (Specific criteria not provided) | (Not explicitly reported, but implied compliance) |
| Bacterial Endotoxins (ANSI AAMI ST72:2019, USP <85>): (Specific criteria not provided) | (Not explicitly reported, but implied compliance) |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: Not specified for any of the tests.
- Data Provenance: The document mentions "An outside of the United States (OUS) study." This indicates a prospective clinical study conducted outside the US. No further details on the country of origin are provided. Bench and biocompatibility testing locations are not specified.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
- Not Applicable. This device is a medical instrument (collector/syringe) for fluid collection, not an AI/diagnostic device that typically requires expert-established ground truth for its performance evaluation (e.g., image interpretation). Its performance is evaluated through physical and chemical property testing (e.g., volume accuracy, needle strength, sterility).
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not Applicable. As noted above, this type of device does not involve expert adjudication for ground truth establishment.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
- No. An MRMC study is typically for evaluating the performance of diagnostic devices, especially those involving human interpretation of data (e.g., radiology images) with and without AI assistance. This device is a manual fluid collector, so such a study is not relevant.
6. If a Standalone Performance Study Was Done
- Yes, implicitly. The bench functional performance tests (ISO 7886-1, ISO 9626, ISO 7864), biocompatibility tests, sterility tests, and the OUS study (which demonstrated effectiveness to collect 50 µL) all represent standalone performance evaluations of the device itself, without human interpretation as a variable.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Metrological and Biological Standards: The ground truth for this device's performance is established by reference to international standards (e.g., ISO for syringes and needles), specific quantitative measurements (e.g., needle force, volume, heavy metal limits, SAL for sterility), and established biocompatibility principles (ISO 10993 series). In the case of the OUS study, the "ground truth" for liquid collection would be the actual measured volume collected by the device.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not Applicable. This is a hardware medical device, not an AI/software device that requires a training set.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- Not Applicable. As it's not an AI/software device, a training set and its associated ground truth are not relevant.
