AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for the Apollo Mini IPL System. This document outlines the device's intended use and claims substantial equivalence to predicate devices, but does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a specific study proving the device meets acceptance criteria.

The "Performance Data" and "Results of Clinical Study" sections explicitly state "None." This means that Sandstone Medical Technologies, LLC did not submit performance data or clinical study results with their 510(k) application to demonstrate the Apollo Mini IPL System met specific acceptance criteria. Instead, the submission relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving the device's performance based on the input text.
