AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for an Infrared Ear Thermometer, Model ET-100 Series. It does not contain the detailed study results, acceptance criteria, or other specific information about device performance and validation that you have requested.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based solely on the provided text. The document confirms that the device has been found substantially equivalent to a predicate device, allowing it to be marketed, but does not detail the technical performance data from studies.

To answer your questions, I would need access to the actual 510(k) submission packet, which would contain the performance testing reports.
