Not Found
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.
