The sam 2.0 Long Duration Ultrasound Device is intended for home use to apply ultrasonic energy to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as the relief of pain, the relief of muscle spasms, the treatment of joint contractures, the local increase in circulation, and the relief of pain associated with limited mobility and function related to soft tissue injuries (e.g., knee osteoarthritis, chronic myofascial pain, and shoulder, elbow and ankle tendinopathy).

The sam 2.0 Long Duration Ultrasound Device consists of ultrasound: Power Controller, Cables, Applicators, Coupling Patches. The sam 2.0 Long Duration Ultrasound Device contains firmware for logging usage time. There is no control function of this firmware. The Power Controller and cables can be used to power one or two Applicators simultaneously to generate ultrasonic energy at one frequency (3 MHz) and one power setting (0.65 W) per Applicator. In single Applicator mode, the patient can receive 0.65 W at 3 MHz. In dual Applicator mode, the patient can receive 1.3 W at 3 MHz. The Applicators are applied to the skin with a onetime use Coupling Patches. The system is intended to apply ultrasonic energy for a long duration (4 hours) to generate deep heat within body tissues. The system is intended for prescription home use after proper instruction from a healthcare professional.

This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from ZetrOZ Systems, LLC for their sam 2.0 Long Duration Ultrasound Device. It seeks to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device, K191568. The key aspect of this submission is an expansion of indications for use for an identical device design.

The document states that the substantial equivalence is supported by clinical performance testing which involved a systematic literature review and meta-analysis rather than a new clinical study. This means there is no traditional "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the way one would analyze a new AI medical device's performance.

Based on the provided text, here's an analysis of the requested information:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not present quantitative acceptance criteria in the way one would for a new AI or diagnostic device (e.g., target sensitivity/specificity). Instead, the "acceptance criteria" for this 510(k) submission are implicitly met by demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate device and by providing clinical evidence from published literature supporting the expanded indications.

The 'performance' is described qualitatively as "efficacy of SAM therapy to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as the relief of pain, the relief of muscle spasms, the treatment of joint contractures, and the local increase in circulation." For the expanded indications, it is stated: "the relief of pain associated with limited mobility and function related to the soft tissue injuries that have been clinically validated include knee osteoarthritis, shoulder, elbow and ankle tendinopathy, and chronic myofascial pain."

Given that this is a K-submission for an ultrasound device with expanded indications and not a novel AI/diagnostic device, the table structure won't fit perfectly with typical AI acceptance criteria. The most relevant 'performance' is the equivalency of the device's technical specifications and the clinical efficacy of ultrasound therapy as demonstrated by the literature review.
