The Laminar P1 device is a wearable and disposable, ultrasound-based (4.5 MHz, continuous-wave) patch sensor designed to detect blood flow in peripheral vessels and assist in the detection of peripheral vascular disease. The Laminar P1 device is intended to be used by medical professionals, such as physicians and nurses, in hospitals, clinics and private offices and healthcare facilities. It is to be used on adults, ages 18 years and older.
The Laminar P1 is an ultrasound-based battery-powered sensor patch designed to detect blood flow in veins and arteries to assist in the detection of peripheral vascular disease. The Laminar P1 consists of a single use sensor patch, a single use patch frame, and a reusable processing unit. The sensor patch is designed to have the same performance characteristics as traditional ultrasound transducer probes (4.5 MHz frequency) but in a patch form factor that is easy to place on the patient's body for a given time period. The patch frame is a sticky frame that aids in the positioning and alignment of the processing unit. The processing unit controls the piezoelectric transducers in the sensor patch and has a built-in speaker with volume-control, like the traditional handheld Doppler devices, and operates in the Doppler continuous-wave mode (4.5 MHz frequency). The Processing Unit is battery-operated.
The provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria for device performance nor a study that proves the device meets specific performance criteria. The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter and a 510(k) summary for a device called "Laminar P1".
This document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (FloPatch FP110), rather than outlining specific performance acceptance criteria and a study to meet those.
Here's a breakdown of why the requested information is absent and what is provided:
- Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: This information is not explicitly stated. The document focuses on comparing the Laminar P1 to a predicate device, noting "Main differences in technological characteristics" such as smaller form factor, transducer frequency, global maximum outputs, and volume/receiver options. It states that "These differences have undergone testing to ensure the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate device," but details of those tests, specific acceptance thresholds, and quantitative results are not provided in this public summary.
- Study Proving Acceptance Criteria: No clinical study specifically designed to demonstrate the device meets acceptance criteria is described. The "Summary of Clinical Testing" section explicitly states: "No clinical testing was provided to support the demonstration of substantial equivalence." This means performance was evaluated through non-clinical means compared to the predicate.
What Glimpses of "Testing" are Provided (Non-Clinical):
The "SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL TESTING" section lists the types of tests performed:
- Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1
- Software per IEC 62304
- Electrical and EMC safety per IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2
- Acoustic output levels per IEC 60601-2-37 and IEC 62359
- Bench performance testing (functional testing, audio performance testing, mechanical testing)
The conclusion states: "The results of these tests indicate that the Laminar P1 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device." However, specific acceptance criteria for these non-clinical tests and the quantitative results are not included in this publicly available 510(k) summary.
Therefore, it is impossible to populate the requested table and answer the study-related questions based solely on the provided text. The information needed (performance metrics, thresholds, study design, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, etc.) would typically be found in the full 510(k) submission, which is not included here.

The THD Revolution is intended to be used for the surgical treatment of hemorrhoidal disease. This treatment is based on the Doppler-guided Transanal Haemorrhoidal Dearterialization technique.
The technique consists of locating and ligating the terminal branches of the superior haemorrhoidal artery using the THD Revolution device and the compatible single-use THD kits.
THD Revolution and its accessories may exclusively be used by specialist physicians for ligation of the terminal branches of the superior haemorroidal artery in hospital facilities (or suitable aseptic outpatient facilities). Furthermore, by using the optic fiber accessory of the THD Revolution, it can be used in modality "Light Source", to support the different THD diagnostic devices.
Identically to the predicate devices K090009, K081429 e K070815, the THD Revolution is a 8 MHz continuous wave (CW) Doppler detector with a loudspeaker and a light source.
Further, as the predicate device, the THD Revolution doppler is used with dedicated accessories (optical fiber and pneumatic foot pedal) and a dedicated kit containing a proctoscope, needle holder, knot tightener, sutures, doppler probe and Surgy proctoscope in order to allow the surgical operation through the Transanal Hemorroidal Dearterialization (THD) technique.
The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for the THD Revolution device. It describes the device, its intended use, and its equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices. It also details performance testing, but it does not contain typical "acceptance criteria" and "reported device performance" in the format of a table as might be found in a study for a new AI/software device. This is due to the nature of the device (a nonfetal ultrasonic monitor with a light source used for surgical treatment) and the type of submission (a 510(k) for substantial equivalence to existing devices, not a de novo submission for a novel device).
Therefore, I will extract the closest relevant information from the document to construct the answer, particularly from "2.8 Performance data", highlighting the differences and similarities with predicate devices which serve as the basis for substantial equivalence.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not specify formal, quantitative acceptance criteria for the THD Revolution as a new, standalone device, nor does it present "reported device performance" against such criteria in a typical tabular format. Instead, it demonstrates substantial equivalence to predicate devices by showing that the THD Revolution's performance is either the same as or improved upon the predicate devices without raising new safety questions.
The "performance data" section focuses on:
- Compliance with recognized standards.
- Acoustic signal quality, specifically addressing the improved clarity due to DSP technology.
- Light source efficacy and photobiological safety.
- Clinical effectiveness in treating hemorrhoidal disease, extending to Grade IV.
Here's an attempt to synthesize the information into a table format, focusing on the comparisons made:
Feature/Parameter | Acceptance Criteria (Implied by Predicate Equivalence or Standards) | Reported Device Performance (THD Revolution) |
---|---|---|
Acoustic Output Levels | Equivalent to predicate device K090009: Max Ispta3 = 347 mW/cm², Max Isppa3 = 0.347 W/cm², Max MI = 0.032 | Max Ispta3 = 347 mW/cm², Max Isppa3 = 0.347 W/cm², Max MI = 0.032. (Identical to predicate) |
Acoustic Signal Quality | Equivalent to predicate devices (K07815, K081429, K090009) in audibility. | At least as good as predicate devices; clearer thanks to DSP technology which sharply reduces background noise, confirming substantial equivalence. |
Light Source (Wattage) | Equivalent to predicate devices (50W). | 50W LED (Predicate uses 50W tungsten halogen lamp). |
Luminous Efficacy | Sufficient illumination for surgical area, equivalent to or better than predicate. | 10300 lux (Significantly higher than predicate's 1580 lux halogen lamp), demonstrating improved illumination. |
Photobiological Safety | Compliance with IEC 62471. | Classified as "Risk group: Exempt" according to IEC 62471, demonstrating compliance. |
Surgical Efficacy (Hemorrhoid Grades) | Effective for Grade II and III hemorrhoids (like predicate devices). | Effective for Grade II, III, and IV hemorrhoids (additional efficacy for Grade IV demonstrated in clinical studies). Resulted in low incidence of complications and high patient satisfaction. |
Compliance with Standards | IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-37, IEC 60601-1-2. | Manufactured in accordance with these standards. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document primarily relies on two clinical studies for surgical efficacy:
-
Study 1: Giorndano P, et al. Colorectal Dis. 2014 May;16(5):373-6.
- Sample Size: 31 patients.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but authors' names and journal suggest potential European origin. The abstract mentions "Colorectal Dis." which is a UK-based journal.
- Retrospective/Prospective: Not explicitly stated, but typical for such intervention studies, it would likely be prospective observation or a clinical trial. The text says "were operated," which could imply retrospective data collection on outcomes, but the context of proving effectiveness for Grade IV hemorrhoids often means dedicated follow-up.
-
Study 2: Morrett R.S. Crujano General. Vol 34 Num 2; 2012.
- Sample Size: 250 patients (including 21 patients with Grade IV hemorrhoids).
- Data Provenance: "Crujano General" is likely "Cirujano General," a Spanish-language journal for general surgeons, suggesting data from a Spanish-speaking country (e.g., Mexico, Spain, Latin America).
- Retrospective/Prospective: Not explicitly stated. Similar to Study 1, "were operated" suggests observation of outcomes post-procedure.
For technical performance (acoustic output, signal quality, luminous efficacy), the "tests were conducted" using the THD Revolution and predicate devices. No sample size of devices or specific data provenance is mentioned beyond "a THD Revolution prototype representative of the standard THD SpA production."
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
This section is not applicable in the context of this device and submission. The performance of the THD Revolution is evaluated based on its physical/electrical characteristics and clinical outcomes (e.g., recurrence, pain, satisfaction) as reported in surgical studies, rather than by human expert interpretation of output (like in imaging AI). The "ground truth" for surgical efficacy is the patient's clinical outcome after the procedure, as assessed by the operating physician and patient reporting.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This is not applicable. The clinical studies cited concern surgical outcomes, not diagnostic interpretations requiring adjudication.
5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
This is not applicable. The THD Revolution is a surgical device, not an AI software intended to assist human readers in interpretation. There are no "readers" involved in this use case, and thus no MRMC study or AI assistance effect size.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This is not applicable. The THD Revolution is a hardware device (an ultrasonic monitor with a light source) used by a surgeon. It does not operate as a standalone algorithm in the sense of AI or software. Its operation is always "human-in-the-loop" as it requires a specialist physician to use it for diagnosis and surgery.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
For the clinical effectiveness data:
- Outcomes data: The primary ground truth for clinical efficacy is the patient's clinical outcome (e.g., resolution of hemorrhoids, absence of intra-operative complications, recurrence rates, post-operative pain levels, patient satisfaction). This is determined by the treating physicians' assessments and patient self-reports.
For the technical performance data (acoustic output, luminous efficacy, safety):
- Objective measurements and international standards: Ground truth is established by objective measurements using calibrated equipment (e.g., illuminance meter) and compliance with recognized international standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-37, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 62471).
8. The sample size for the training set
This is not applicable. The THD Revolution is a hardware device. It does not use Machine Learning or AI models that require a "training set" of data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This is not applicable, as there is no training set for this device.

The simpleABI is a diagnostic ultrasound system used to aid a physician in obtaining systolic pressure values at the arms and legs to aid in the diagnosis of vascular disease. The system utilizes a handheld Doppler for detecting presence or absence of blood flow. The user, using a handheld aneroid, Doppler, and standard blood pressure cuffs, measures the systolic pressures of the arms and legs. Two additional modalities, Pulse Volume Recording (PVR) and Photoplethysmography (PPG), may optionally provide additional information for the clinician. PVR is a plethysmograph to measure the change in limb volume related to each cardiac pulse. The PPG may be used to obtain toe pressures as an optional method if arterial flow using a Doppler is problematic. The unit will calculate Ankle Brachial Index (ABI), Toe Brachial Index (TBI) or segmental values once the clinician has entered the appropriate pressure values read from the handheld aneroid. Waveforms, pressure values, and index results can be printed directly from the system.
Diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body as follows: Peripheral Vascular.
The 5MHz, 8MHz, or PPG probes are designed for peripheral vascular applications.
The nominal 5MHz probe previously submitted and approved under K090465.

The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the THD Slide, a medical device. This summary primarily focuses on regulatory approval based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device and acoustic emission testing. It does not contain the detailed information typically found in a study demonstrating clinical performance or meeting specific acceptance criteria in the way a clinical trial or algorithm validation study would.
Therefore, many of the requested sections below cannot be fully populated from the provided document.
Here's an analysis based on the available information:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study for THD Slide
The THD Slide's acceptance criteria primarily revolve around its substantial equivalence to a predicate device and meeting safety standards related to acoustic emissions, rather than specific clinical performance metrics. The study mentioned is limited to acoustic output measurements.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Substantial Equivalence | Device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices (K07081). | The THD Slide is considered substantially equivalent to the predicate device K07081. |
Acoustic Emissions | Acoustic emissions (MI, Ispta3, Beam Area, Wo) must be below upper limits recommended by FDA guidance "Information for Manufacturers Seeking Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers" (September 30, 1997). | Mean Values: |
MI: 0.027 | ||
Ispta3: 232 mW/cm² | ||
Beam Area: 3.063 mm² | ||
Wo: 15.633 mW |
Max Values:
MI: 0.032
Ispta3: 322 mW/cm²
Beam Area: 3.880 mm²
Wo: 18.500 mW
These reported values are stated to be below the recommended upper limits. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable in the context of clinical performance data. For acoustic emissions, the 'test set' would refer to the measurements taken on the device itself. The document does not specify how many individual measurements were taken or if multiple devices were tested; it provides mean, standard deviation, and max values, implying multiple measurements.
- Data Provenance: The acoustic emission data would have been generated internally by the manufacturer (THD S.p.A.) as part of product testing to demonstrate compliance with standards. The country of origin for the device manufacturer is Italy.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- Not applicable as the 'ground truth' here relates to objective physical measurements (acoustic output) rather than expert interpretation of clinical data. Compliance with acoustic output limits is typically determined by specialized engineers and equipment.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
- Not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are used for resolving discrepancies in expert interpretations (e.g., in reading medical images). For acoustic emissions, measurements are objective and compared against pre-defined regulatory limits.
5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
- No. This is not an AI/algorithm-based device in the sense of image interpretation or diagnostic assistance. It's an ultrasonic Doppler device used for guiding a surgical procedure. Therefore, an MRMC study or AI assistance evaluation is irrelevant to this submission.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- No. This device is not an algorithm that operates in a standalone manner. It is a physical medical device (Doppler probe and surgical kit) used by physicians to guide a surgical procedure.
7. The type of ground truth used
- For the acoustic emissions, the "ground truth" is adherence to established regulatory limits and standards for ultrasonic output, measured by calibrated equipment.
- For substantial equivalence, the "ground truth" is a regulatory determination made by the FDA based on comparison to an already cleared predicate device (K07081) regarding indications for use, technological characteristics, and safety/effectiveness. There is no clinical "ground truth" such as pathology or outcomes data presented in this specific 510(k) summary.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This device is not an AI/machine learning model and therefore does not have a "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable, as there is no training set for this device.

The provided text is primarily a 510(k) summary, focusing on device description, indications for use, and a comparison to predicate devices for substantial equivalence.
The "Performance Data" section solely discusses acoustic output parameters of the THD Evolution Doppler and compares them to limits for diagnostic ultrasound systems, not clinical performance for treating hemorrhoids.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The document focuses on regulatory compliance through substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on safety and basic functional characteristics, rather than a detailed performance study with specific acceptance criteria related to its clinical efficacy.

This device is intended for detection of blood flow in veins and arteries and as an aid for the diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease.
The Vista AVSTM is a diagnostic ultrasound device used to aid the clinician in obtaining systolic pressure values at the arms, legs and feet. The device will provide a bi-directional Doppler for detecting presence or absence of blood flow, and will control the inflation and deflation of a pressure cuff under direction of the user. Two additional modalities, Pulse Cuff Recording (PCR) and Photoplethysmography (PPG), will provide additional information for the clinician. PCR will be used as a plethysmograph to obtain alternative blood flow waveforms, and the PPG will be used primarily to obtain toe pressures. The unit will calculate Ankle Brachial Index (ABI), Toe Brachial Index (TBI) or segmental values once the clinician has accepted or entered the appropriate pressure values. Waveforms, pressure values, and index results can be printed directly from the device or uploaded using AVS ReportTM report generating software and an external user supplied PC via a USB port. The unit can run from an internal power source or from an external power supply, and mounts to a rolling stand.
The Summit Doppler Systems, Inc. Vista AVS is a diagnostic ultrasound device intended for the detection of blood flow in veins and arteries and as an aid for the diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease. It measures systolic pressure values, provides bi-directional Doppler for blood flow, and controls pressure cuff inflation/deflation. It also incorporates Pulse Cuff Recording (PCR) and Photoplethysmography (PPG) and calculates Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) or Toe Brachial Index (TBI).
Here's an analysis of the provided information regarding its acceptance criteria and supporting studies:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The provided document (K063600) is a 510(k) premarket notification for substantial equivalence, not a detailed clinical study report with specific acceptance criteria and performance metrics for the device itself. The submission claims substantial equivalence to a predicate device (IMEXLAB 9100 Diagnostic Ultrasound Device, K973562).
Therefore, there are no explicit "acceptance criteria" or "reported device performance" metrics directly stated for the Vista AVS in this document in the typical sense of a clinical trial. Instead, the "acceptance criteria" can be inferred as demonstration of equivalence in:
Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Substantial Equivalence Claim) | Reported Device Performance (as inferred from the document) |
---|---|
Intended Use Equivalence: Detect blood flow and aid in peripheral vascular disease diagnosis. | The Vista AVS is intended for "detection of blood flow in veins and arteries and as an aid for the diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease." This exactly matches the intended use of its predicate device, as implied by the substantial equivalence claim. |
Technological Equivalence: Utilize similar ultrasound technology. | The "Technologies Summary" states: "Doppler ultrasound technology is the same as substantially equivalent device shown above." This indicates the core technology, specifically Doppler ultrasound, is considered equivalent to the predicate. |
Performance Equivalence: Provide comparable diagnostic information and functionality. | The "Description" section details the Vista AVS's capabilities: "obtain systolic pressure values at the arms, legs and feet," "provide a bi-directional Doppler," "control the inflation and deflation of a pressure cuff," include "Pulse Cuff Recording (PCR) and Photoplethysmography (PPG)," and "calculate Ankle Brachial Index (ABI), Toe Brachial Index (TBI) or segmental values." This implies that the device performs functions comparable to established vascular ultrasound monitors. |
Safety and Effectiveness: Demonstrate safety and effectiveness comparable to the predicate. | The "Conclusion" states: "Based on comparisons of device features, materials, intended use and performance, and user instructions, the Vista AVS is shown to be substantially equivalent to the commercially available and legally marketed device indicated above." This is the primary claim of safety and effectiveness based on equivalence. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The provided document does not describe a test set or clinical study specific to the Vista AVS for demonstrating performance against defined criteria. The submission is a 510(k) for substantial equivalence, which primarily relies on comparing the new device to a legally marketed predicate device. There is no mention of patient data, sample sizes, or data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective).
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
Since no specific test set or clinical study is described for the Vista AVS in this submission, there is no information about experts used to establish ground truth.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
As there is no described test set, no adjudication method is mentioned.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No MRMC comparative effectiveness study is mentioned in the provided document. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not on directly comparing human reader performance with and without AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
The Vista AVS is described as a diagnostic ultrasound device that aids clinicians. It is not an AI algorithm. Therefore, a standalone performance study in the context of an algorithm's performance without human-in-the-loop is not applicable here, and no such study is mentioned.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The concept of "ground truth" as typically used in AI/diagnostic studies (e.g., pathology, outcomes data) is not applicable to this 510(k) submission. The submission is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, meaning its "ground truth" for regulatory clearance is that it functions safely and effectively like the predicate device for its intended use.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The Vista AVS is a physical medical device utilizing established Doppler ultrasound technology. It is not an AI system that requires a "training set" in the machine learning sense. Therefore, there is no information about a training set size.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Since the Vista AVS is not an AI system developed with a machine learning training set, this question is not applicable.

It allows dual stethoscopic and doppler peripheral vascular investigation in a simple auscultation. It facilitates: - the detection of blood-flow in the peripheral arteries - Systolic Blood Pressures (SBP) measurements of the lower limb and upper-limb in order to determine the possible PAD ankle Brachial index (ABI) in the concerned limb. when associated with a sphygmomanometer
Acoustic stethoscope with ultrasonic transducer. It operates with 2 modes stethoscopic mode (classical stethoscope) and Doppler mode. Powered by one (6LR61) 9V lenium battery. Doppler frequency: 8 MHz. Operating time 25 h according to use. Mass 331 g.
The provided document is a 510(K) Premarket Notification Submission for the "Acoustic and Doppler Stethoscope Stethoflux®". It states that the device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device (K030466, HandyDop TM, Elcat GmbH) and does not provide detailed acceptance criteria or a dedicated study description with specific performance metrics beyond stating "Similar specifications for the common application with the 8 MHz probe."
The document explicitly states:
- "There are no section 514 performance standards for this class of device for assisting in the determination of its substantial equivalence."
- "Not required for determination of substantial equivalence for this class of device, though publication of some clinical data are contained in this premarket submission." (However, these clinical data are not present in the provided text.)

The Model 500H Doppler Guided Proctoscope is used to detect blood vessels supplying hemorrhoids and for performing HAL ( Hemorrhoid Arterial Ligation) for Class II and Class III hemorrhoids. It is to be used by physicians in hospitals, clinics, and physician's offices by prescriptions or doctor's orders.
The model 500H Doppler guided proctoscope consists of two parts . The first part is a Doppler probe in a proctoscope that are used integrally with each other and are not intended to be used separately. The Doppler guided proctoscope has a removable fiber optic light pipe, and a removable 8 mHz CW Doppler probe. The second part is a combination 8 mHz continuous wave (CW) Doppler detector with loudspeaker and a light source. The Doppler guided proctoscope is inserted in the rectum and rotated until one of the branches of the hemorrhoidal artery is located. The artery is located when the user hears the classical arterial blood flow sound. The Doppler guided proctoscope is rotated such that the arterial sound is maximized thus insuring that the hemorrhoidal artery is under the Doppler probe and in the Doppler guided proctoscope's rectangular slit. The physcician or surgeon can then ligate the artery . The Doppler guided proctoscope is then rotated until the next hemorrhoidal artery branch is detected. The process is repeated until all detected hemorrhoidal arteries are located and ligated. After ligation the Doppler guided proctoscope can be rotated 360 degrees to make sure that all of the hemorrhoidal arterial branches have been ligated.
The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for the Multigon Industries, Inc. Model 500H Doppler Guided Proctoscope. It does not contain a study with acceptance criteria and a detailed analysis of the device's performance against those criteria in a clinical setting.
Instead, the submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices and adherence to relevant safety and performance standards. The "Test Data" section is very brief and high-level, stating:
"The Model 500H Doppler guided proctoscope has been subjected to extensive safety, performance testing, and validation before release. Final testing of the 500H included various performance tests designed to ensure that the device met all of its functional specifications. Safety tests have been performed to ensure the device complies with applicable industry and safety standards."
This statement confirms that testing was done, but does not provide the specific acceptance criteria or the reported device performance in a way that can be tabulated.
Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what is missing based on your request:
