Device Description

Imprevious Isolation Gown

AI/ML Overview

I’m sorry, but this document does not contain the information you are looking for regarding the acceptance criteria and study details for a device. The provided text is a letter from the FDA concerning a 510(k) premarket notification for an "Imprevious Isolation Gown," stating that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.

The document discusses:

  • The FDA's determination of substantial equivalence.
  • Regulatory classifications and requirements (general controls, GMP).
  • Information on labeling regulations and compliance.
  • The intended use of the device (to protect patients and healthcare personnel from transfer of micro-organisms, body fluids, and particulate material).

There is no information about:

  • Specific acceptance criteria tables or reported device performance.
  • Sample sizes for test or training sets.
  • Data provenance.
  • Number or qualifications of experts for ground truth establishment.
  • Adjudication methods.
  • MRMC comparative effectiveness studies or effect sizes.
  • Standalone algorithm performance.
  • Type of ground truth used.
  • How ground truth for a training set was established.

This type of information is usually found in a separate study report or a more detailed section of a 510(k) submission, not in the FDA's decision letter.
