Device Description

Calf Implant (Silicone Carving Blocks)

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a Gluteal Implant (later identified as a Calf Implant in the "Indications for Use" section). It confirms substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

However, the document does not contain any information about acceptance criteria or the study that proves the device meets those criteria. The 510(k) clearance process primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, not necessarily on presenting detailed performance study data against specific acceptance criteria in the format requested.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the given text.

To answer your request, I would need a different type of document, such as a summary of safety and effectiveness data (which may be part of a 510(k) submission but is not included in this clearance letter), a clinical study report, or a detailed device specification.
