AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Magi Acupuncture Needle) seeking clearance from the FDA. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria through a study with performance metrics.

Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria, device performance studies, sample sizes, expert ground truth, or MRMC studies.

Instead, the document asserts:

  • Substantial Equivalence: The Magi acupuncture needles are "substantially equivalent" to other legally marketed acupuncture needles.
  • Safety Record: Since 1992, "no accident or device failure claims have been reported as a result of using the Magi acupuncture needle."
  • Intended Use: "Acupuncture needles are defined as devices intended to pierce the skin in the practice of acupuncture by qualified practitioners of acupuncture as determined by the States."

Without a performance study, I cannot fill out the requested table or specify details about test sets, ground truth establishment, or statistical analysis.
