Intended Use
The HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE is intended for medical diagnostic purposes only. It can be used for the amplification heart, lung and other body sounds with the use of selective frequency and can be used on any patient undergoing a physical assessment.
Device Description
HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE is a non-sterile, reusable Electronic Stethoscope . HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE, equipped with built-in micro-computer chip, includes state-of-the-art amplification and filtering systems. It is ideal for picking up difficult-to-hear heart and other body sounds. The features of HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE is as follows - Providing three-mode choices for adequate requirements: heart sound mode, lung sound mode and combination mode - Eight volumes levels provide up to 18X amplification of acoustic stethoscopes - Electronic design with fully eliminates sound loss and resonance effects associated with traditional acoustic stethoscopes. With amplified signal, you could even hear the slight sounds much clearer than the traditional one. - Ergonomically designed with comfortable handholding, subtle with material and touch - Four-segments display shows the battery conditions could inform you to know the battery using state - Auto shut-off after 3 minutes for extending battery life
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on amplification and filtering of sounds, not analysis or interpretation using AI/ML. The mention of a "built-in micro-computer chip" is common for electronic devices and doesn't necessarily indicate AI/ML.

No
The device is described as an electronic stethoscope intended for diagnostic purposes (amplification of body sounds), not for treating any condition.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended for medical diagnostic purposes only."

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "Electronic Stethoscope" and lists hardware components and features like a built-in micro-computer chip, amplification and filtering systems, ergonomic design, and a battery display, indicating it is a physical device with integrated software, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood, tissue, and urine, derived from the human body, in order to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
  • HL 200 Function: The HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE is used for the amplification of body sounds (heart, lung, etc.) directly from the patient's body. It does not involve the examination of specimens in vitro (outside the body).
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "for medical diagnostic purposes only" and describes its function as amplifying body sounds during a physical assessment. This aligns with the function of a traditional stethoscope, which is not an IVD.

Therefore, the HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE is a medical device used for physical examination and diagnosis based on auscultation, not an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The HL 200 ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE is intended for medical diagnostic purposes only. It can be used for the amplification heart, lung and other body sounds with the use of selective frequency and can be used on any patient undergoing a physical assessment.
