The provided text is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for an ECG electrode (various) and the associated "Indications for Use" statement. It does not contain information on acceptance criteria, device performance, or details of a study to prove the device meets these criteria. This type of document is a regulatory approval, confirming substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than a scientific study report.
Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information as it is not present in the provided text.

Dear Mr. Duesler:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to leqally 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, Druq, and Cosmetic Act (Act). 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.
