Intended Use

The DNAP Cranial Nerve Electrodes are designed for intraoperative monitoring/recording for less than or equal to 10 hours from the cochlear cranial nerves during skull based surgical procedures when connected to the MEE-1000A or MEE-2000 Neural Function Measuring System.

Device Story

Single-use, disposable cranial nerve electrode; records dorsal cochlear nucleus action potentials (DNAP) elicited by auditory stimulation. Used during skull-based surgeries (e.g., acoustic neuroma, meningioma) at the CP-angle. Surgeon places electrode on dorsal cochlear nuclei via foramen of Luschka. Connects to Nihon Kohden MEE-1000A or MEE-2000 Neural Function Measuring System. Provides real-time nerve monitoring to preserve cochlear nerve function. Intraoperative use only; duration ≤ 10 hours. Non-active device; passive recording only.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluations included electrical resistance, connector compatibility, tensile testing (continuity and separation), and simulated use for the 10-hour duration. Biocompatibility testing confirmed safety for cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous, and acute systemic toxicity.

Technological Characteristics

Platinum/Iridium electrode contact; single-contact design. Disposable, sterile, non-active. Designed for connection to MEE-1000A/MEE-2000 systems. Not MRI compatible.

Indications for Use

Indicated for intraoperative monitoring/recording of cochlear cranial nerve action potentials during skull-based surgeries (e.g., acoustic neuroma, meningioma removal at CP-angle). Contraindicated for patients at risk for infection, cases where the procedure cannot be performed safely, and MRI environments.

The DNAP electrodes are non-active and are intended to be connected to Nihon Kohden Corporation's Neural Function Measuring System MEE-1000A or MEE-2000 Neural Function Measuring System. The DNAP electrode is a single patient use, disposable cranial nerve electrode used for recording cranial nerve action potentials. The DNAP electrode may be used for recording the action potentials of cochlear nucleus elicited by auditory stimulation. The user places the electrode on the dorsal cochlear nuclei. Access to the dorsal cochlear nuclei may be through the foremen of Luschka. This potential is called DNAP (dorsal cochlear nucleus action potential), and used to preserve cochlear nerve function especially during acoustic neuroma surgery or tumor removal (such as meningioma) at the CP-angle. {4}------------------------------------------------ #### Intended Use of the Device 5.1 The intended use of the DNAP electrode is the same as the predicate device: The DNAP Cranial Nerve Electrodes are designed for intraoperative monitoring/recording for less than or equal to 10 hours from the cochlear cranial nerve during skull based surgical procedures when connected to the MEE-1000A or MEE- 2000 Neural Function Measuring System. #### 5.3 Summary of Technological Characteristics The following table provides a side-by-side comparison the DNAP electrode to the predicate devices applied to support this notification. | Table 5.3-1: Substantial Equivalence Technical Characteristics | | | | |----------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | DNAP Electrode<br>(Under Review) | Cueva Electrode<br>(Predicate K944061) | Comment | | Indications for<br>Use | The DNAP Cranial Nerve<br>Electrodes are designed for<br>intraoperative<br>monitoring/recording for<br>less than or equal to 10<br>hours from the cochlear<br>cranial nerve during skull<br>based surgical procedures<br>when connected to the<br>MEE-1000A or MEE-2000<br>Neural Function Measuring<br>System. | The Cueva Cranial Nerve<br>Electrode is intended for<br>use to monitor cranial<br>nerves during skull base<br>type surgeries. | The indication for use of the<br>DNAP electrode is the same<br>as the predicate device with<br>regard to intraoperative<br>monitoring (recording) from<br>the surface of cranial<br>nerves.
