Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a pregnancy test, not a study describing acceptance criteria or performance data for an AI/ML device. Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information. The letter confirms substantial equivalence to a predicate device and states the indications for use, but does not contain performance study details typically associated with AI/ML device evaluations.
