AI/ML Overview

This document is a marketing clearance letter from the FDA for an Automatic Self-Operated Screening Audiometer Device (ASAM). It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets specific performance metrics.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The document focuses on regulatory approval based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than detailed performance study results.
