The Embla N7000 is intended for the acquisition and transmission of EEG and polysomnography signals for diagnostic purposes, not for providing therapy or treatment.
No
The Intended Use / Indications for Use section explicitly states, "The use of the Embla N7000 system does not involve any patient monitoring or diagnosis." Its purpose is for the acquisition and transmission of EEG and polysomnography signals, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "full polysomnography system" and mentions hardware components like an Ethernet network connection, cables, and inputs for additional devices. It is a hardware system for signal acquisition and transmission, not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the Embla N7000 is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The Embla N7000 acquires physiological signals (EEG and PSG) directly from the patient's body, not from a specimen.
- The intended use clearly states the acquisition and transmission of signals. It does not mention any analysis or testing of biological samples.
- The device description focuses on the acquisition of physiological data. It explicitly states that it "does not do the recording, monitoring or analysis of this data."
Therefore, the Embla N7000 falls under the category of a medical device used for physiological signal acquisition, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

The Embla N7000 is intended for use by a physician or trained technician for the acquisition of EEG and polysomnography (PSG) signals and transmission of these signals to a PC during neurophysiologic or sleep examinations. The intended environments are hospitals, institutions, sleep centers, sleep clinics, or other test environments,

Technological Charaterics
Both Artisan and Embla N7000 are used for amplifying EEG and sleep signals in clinical and research laboratories. Both are designed for collection and transmission of sleep data to a personal computer. Both systems are only acquisition systems from amplifying and digitizing EEG and other polygraph channels and their transmission to a PC.
The amplification and data acquisition functions are similar for both systems. The main difference is the extended hardware possibilities of re-referencing in the Embla N7000. Also the Embla N7000 is controlled by software that is stored in internal Flash memory and runs on internal microprocessors. Artisans programs are also stored in internal Flash memory and run on a PLD (Programmable Logic Device). The difference between a microprocessor and a PLD is mainly how the commands are processed in each device. The software for PLDs sets up the configuration of the PLDs electronics to make it perform certain logical operations. The software for microprocessors performs the same logical operations by a sequence of instructions executed in the processors CPU. The software development was done according to the firmware development process at Medcare Flaga and it was verified that the software requirements are met. The software level of concern for both products was minor.
The patient mains-isolation is equivalent for the two devices. The N7000 has internal mains isolation transformer to power the device. The Artisan is powered from external mains transformer that provides the same isolation. In both cases the mains isolation fulfills the reinforced requirements of over 4000V manufacturing test voltage, set by the EN60601-1 and UL-2601.
The isolation from external devices is done in similar way in both devices. In Artisan, a special external box containing AD converters and opto-couplers are used to isolate the signals, but in N7000 the similar converters and opto-couplers are built in the device.
The construction of the communication is also equivalent. Artisan uses fiber-optic cable for the isolation, using a proprietary communication standard for the point to point communications with the PC. The N7000 uses a signal-transformer to isolate the communications and communicates over standard Ethernet with the PC.

Dear Mr. Kulkarni:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally 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. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
