AI/ML Overview

I apologize, but the provided text from the FDA 510(k) premarket notification for the Conway Stuart Medical Tubular Electrode series (Model A 4000, A 4400, A 8000) does not contain information about acceptance criteria, device performance studies, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, or any details typically found in such studies.

The document is a letter from the FDA acknowledging the review of the 510(k) submission and determining substantial equivalence for the device. It focuses on regulatory aspects such as:

  • Trade Names and Regulatory Class: Listing the different models and their classification.
  • Substantial Equivalence Determination: Stating that the device is substantially equivalent to predicate devices marketed before May 28, 1976.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Reminding the applicant of general controls, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements, and other federal laws.
  • Marketing Authorization: Allowing the device to be marketed.
  • Indications for Use: Stating that the devices are "Indicated for coagulation of tissue" and "intended for use by qualified medical personnel trained in the use of electrosurgery."

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested table or information because the document does not contain the study details.
