The Alma Lasers Accent™ is a portable system used to deliver radiofrequency energy to the patient treatment site via a delivery handpiece.
This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Alma Lasers Accent™ device. It describes the device, its intended use, and claims substantial equivalence to predicate devices. However, this document does not contain specific acceptance criteria or the details of a study demonstrating the device meets such criteria in terms of quantitative performance metrics.
The provided text states:
- "Clinical information was provided to demonstrate safety and effectiveness."
- "Clinical information demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of the Alma Lasers Accent™ device for the non-invasive treatment of wrinkles and rhytids was provided."
This suggests a clinical study was performed, but the details of that study, including acceptance criteria and reported performance, are not present in this 510(k) summary. FDA 510(k) summaries often only provide a high-level overview.
Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions below with the provided information.
Based on the provided text, the following information is NOT available:
- A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance.
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts.
- Adjudication method for the test set.
- If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, and its effect size.
- If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done.
- The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc).
- The sample size for the training set.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established.
The document primarily focuses on establishing "substantial equivalence" to existing predicate devices for regulatory clearance, rather than presenting a detailed performance study with quantitative acceptance criteria.

Dear Ms. Worden:
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 product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
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.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
