The device is a low profile replacement gastrostomy tube kit designed for percutaneous insertion through an established stoma tract.
The device is indicated for percutaneous placement of a low-profile long term gastrostomy feeding and decompression device through an established stoma.
The Low Profile Gastrostomy Tube Kit is a collection of medical devices that are assembled for the convenience of the health care professional for the purpose of creating a percutaneous gastrostomy through which an enteral feeding tube is placed. The Kit contains items that are commonly used in this type of procedure and which otherwise would be procured through the facility's central supply system. The units are packaged in a kit form with related feeding components and is ethylene oxide sterilized. It is packaged in a preformed plastic tray, and is sealed with a 1073B tyvek lid containing a description of the kit components. This packaging is similar to the predicate unit and is a system commonly used in the medical device industry.
The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the "Radius Low Profile Gastrostomy Tube Kit." This document explains the device, its intended use, and its comparison to a predicate device for regulatory purposes. However, it does not contain any information regarding specific acceptance criteria, performance studies, sample sizes, expert ground truth establishment, or any of the detailed analytical performance metrics typically associated with a medical device study.
The document is a regulatory submission for premarket clearance based on substantial equivalence, not a clinical or performance study report.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request with the provided input text. To answer your questions, I would need a different document, such as a clinical study report or a detailed performance verification and validation report for the device.

Dear Mr. Ransom:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. However, you are responsible to determine that the medical devices you use as components in the kit have either been determined as substantially equivalent under the premarket notification process (Section 510(k) of the act), or were legally on the market prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments. Please note: If you purchase your device components in bulk (i.e., unfinished) and further process (e.g., sterilize) you must submit a new 510(k) before including these components in your kit. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, and labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval) it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, FDA will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Regulations.
