Not Found
This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a medical device: "ENDOPATH and Echelon Linear Cutter and Staplers." It is a regulatory approval document and does not contain acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria.
The letter states that the FDA has reviewed the premarket notification and determined the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices. Substantial equivalence means that the new device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed device (the predicate device) and does not need to go through the more rigorous Premarket Approval (PMA) process.
Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, and MRMC/standalone studies cannot be extracted from the provided text. This information would typically be found in the 510(k) submission itself, which is a much more detailed document than the clearance letter.

Trade/Device Name: ENDOPATH and Echelon Linear Cutter and Staplers Regulation Number: 21 CFR 878.4750 Regulation Name: Implantable staple Regulatory Class: II Product Code: GDW Dated: March 29, 2007 Received: March 30, 2007
Dear Mr. Hahn:
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). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
