Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA regarding the ElectroPulse device. It states that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. This type of letter does not typically contain information about comprehensive clinical studies with acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert ground truth establishment, or multi-reader multi-case studies, which are usually part of a full clinical trial report or a more detailed submission.

Based on the provided text, the specific information requested cannot be extracted. The document confirms the FDA's clearance of the device based on substantial equivalence, implying that the performance of the ElectroPulse is considered comparable to similar devices already on the market, but it does not detail a study conducted by the applicant to prove specific acceptance criteria for the device itself.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill the request for information regarding acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or clinical study details as this document is not a clinical study report.

Dear Mr. Gorham:

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 (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic
