Device Description

Protégé Ultrasonic Insert Devices

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA for dental ultrasonic inserts. This type of document declares substantial equivalence to a predicate device and does not contain the detailed study information regarding acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or ground truth that would typically be found in a clinical study report or a more comprehensive technical document.

Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information from this document. The document primarily focuses on regulatory approval and does not provide specifics on device performance beyond stating its intended use.

Dear Dr. Quattrone:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to rnarket 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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
