Device Description

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification from the FDA, granting clearance for the Astralite Corporation's LFRE Indirect Laryngoscope. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria.

The 510(k) process is primarily focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, not on presenting novel performance data against specific acceptance criteria in the way a clinical trial or performance study would.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided text. The document confirms the device's clearance for specific indications for use, but it does not detail the technical performance criteria or studies that might have been part of the manufacturer's submission for substantial equivalence.

Dear Mr. Swartz:

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, listing 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 (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
