Device Description

Sterile Disposables for MER

AI/ML Overview

This appears to be a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a medical device. This type of document typically does not contain the detailed study results, acceptance criteria, or performance metrics that you are requesting.

The letter confirms that the device, "Sterile Disposables for MER" from Alpha Omega Engineering, Ltd., has been found "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices. This means it has similar technological characteristics and is intended for the same use as a device already on the market, implying that it is as safe and effective.

To provide the information you asked for, I would need access to the actual 510(k) submission, which is often much more detailed than the clearance letter itself and may contain the studies and data you're looking for.

Based on the provided text, I can only state that none of the requested information (acceptance criteria, device performance, study details, sample sizes, ground truth information, MRMC study, standalone performance) is present.

Dear Mr. Sharon:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
