Reprocessed electrosurgical electrodes are intended to remove tissue and control bleeding during surgery by use of electrical current.
The devices that are the subject of this submission are used to remove tissue and control bleeding during surgery. They are made of a variety of materials and come in different shapes. They come from several different original equipment manufacturers as single use devices. Reprocessing includes cleaning. refurbishing, testing, packaging, and sterilization. It allows the electrodes to be used several times rather than just once.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for reprocessed electrosurgical electrodes and an FDA clearance letter. It does not contain information regarding acceptance criteria, study performance, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert qualifications, ground truth establishment, or MRMC studies.
The document explicitly states: "Comparative performance testing and clinical evaluations were not included as part of this 510(k)." This indicates that a study demonstrating performance against acceptance criteria, as requested in the prompt, was not performed for this submission.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the given text.

August 10, 2001 Date summary prepared:
Device name:
| Proprietary name: | Reprocessed Electrosurgical Electrodes |
|---|---|
| Common or usual name: | Electrodes or probes |
| Classification name: | Electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device andaccessories, 878.4400, or Arthroscope, 888.1100. |
Legally marketed device for substantial equivalence comparison:
The predicate device for each reprocessed electrosurgical electrode is the same product as provided by the original manufacturer.
Description of the device:
The devices that are the subject of this submission are used to remove tissue and control bleeding during surgery. They are made of a variety of materials and come in different shapes. They come from several different original equipment manufacturers as single use devices. Reprocessing includes cleaning. refurbishing, testing, packaging, and sterilization. It allows the electrodes to be used several times rather than just once.
Intended use of device:
Reprocessed electrosurgical electrodes are intended to remove tissue and control bleeding during surgery by use of electrical current.
Technological characteristics:
The device features of the reprocessed electrosurgical electrodes and the single use electrodes are very similar. The materials, dimensions, and geometry of individual electrodes are identical. Both sets of products are provided sterile. The technical characteristics, method of use, and compatibility with other surgical instruments are also identical. The only difference is that the original products are sold for single use, while the reprocessed products can be used several times.
Testing conducted:
Each electrosurgical electrode is tested for functionality as part of the reprocessing procedures. Validation of the sterility protocol was also included in the submission.
Performance testing:
Comparative performance testing and clinical evaluations were not included as part of this 510(k).

Dear Mr. McQuate:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration. Iisting of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
