More Information

No
The document describes a device for acquiring and transferring biophysical parameters for EEG and Sleep Studies. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms. The focus is on data acquisition and transfer.

No.
The device is intended for diagnostic purposes (acquiring, storing, recording, measuring, and displaying biophysical parameters) for conditions such as Sleep Disorders and Epilepsies, not for treating or rehabilitating those conditions.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the data acquired by the device "may be used by the clinician in Sleep Disorders, Epilepsies and other related disorders as a diagnostic tool."

No

The device description explicitly states it is comprised of a telemetry unit, electrode junction box, and access point, which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health. This testing is performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is intended to "acquire, store, and transfer biophysical parameters" and "acquire, store, record, measure and display cerebral and extracerebral activity." This involves directly measuring physiological signals from the patient's body (in vivo).
  • Parameters Measured: The listed parameters (EEG, EOG, ECG, EMG, respiration, PLM, snore, SpO2, sleep position) are all physiological measurements taken from the patient's body, not from a specimen.

Therefore, the device's function and the type of data it collects align with a physiological monitoring device rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description

The product is comprised of telemetry unit, Electrode junction box and access point to operate with our current commercially available EEG devices. The basic measurement data includes: EEG, EOG, ECG, EMG, respiration, periodic limb movement (PLM), snore, SpO2 and sleep position.
Electrodes and sensors from the patient are connected to telemetry unit through the electrode junction box. The telemetry unit communicates with Nihon Kohden Access point, ZR-101AA. The Access point is connected to other cleared Nihon Kohden EEG machines for all previously cleared indications of monitoring patients' physiological data.
The device does not directly contact patients. New accessories that contact patients such as the EEG electrodes are made from the same component materials as similar legally marketed accessories.
The device is not sterile.

Trade name: Wireless Input Unit Common Name: Electroencephalograph Classification: II The Predicate: Siesta system by Compumedix, 510K No: K003175

The device is classified by the Neurology Panel under 21 CFR Part 882.1400 "Electroencephalograph" per GWQ, OLV

The device is intended to record, measure and display the physiological data required for EEG and sleep studies as an aid in diagnosis. The product is comprised of telemetry unit, Electrode junction box and access point to operate with our current commercially available EEG devices. The basic measurement data includes: EEG, EOG, ECG, EMG, respiration, periodic limb movement (PLM), snore, SpO2 and sleep position.

This device is intended for use by medical personnel and will be available for use within a medical facility or outside of a medical facility under direct supervision of a medical professional.

The device does not directly contact patients. New accessories that contact patients such as the EEG electrodes are made from the same component materials as similar legally marketed accessories. Therefore, good laboratory practice studies were not required per 21 CFR part 58. Electrodes and sensors from the patient are connected to telemetry unit through the electrode junction box. The telemetry unit communicates with Nihon Kohden Access point, ZR-101AA. The Access point is connected to other cleared Nihon Kohden EEG machines for all previously cleared indications of monitoring patients' physiological data.

The device is not sterile.

The device was developed in accordance with design controls and operation of the device was appropriately verified and validated using the same test methods as with the existing device.

The device technological characteristics are the same as predicate. The device Risk analysis and summary of Validation/Verification are attached.

Dear Ms. Namini:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of January 7, 2004.

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
