AI/ML Overview

The provided text is related to a 510(k) premarket notification for a pregnancy test device, not an AI device. As such, the information typically requested for AI device studies (like acceptance criteria tables, sample sizes for test sets, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training set details, and ground truth establishment methods) is not available in the document.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the text you provided.
