Here's an analysis based on the provided document:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices and compliance with relevant standards. It does not explicitly define "acceptance criteria" in terms of specific performance metrics for the overall device's therapeutic effectiveness (e.g., a percentage reduction in a particular symptom). Instead, the acceptance is based on meeting safety and technical standards and demonstrating comparable performance to predicate devices for its intended use.
However, some technical specifications can be viewed as performance characteristics that were likely expected to meet certain thresholds or be comparable to predicate devices.

Study Proving Acceptance Criteria are Met:
The document describes a series of tests and comparisons to predicate devices to demonstrate substantial equivalence and safety rather than a single "study" proving therapeutic effectiveness against pre-defined clinical acceptance criteria.
The primary "study" or demonstration of meeting acceptance criteria consists of:
- Bench Testing and Compliance with Standards: The EEG NeuroAmp and its accessory were tested according to international standards for electrical medical devices and biocompatibility.
- Comparison to Predicate Devices: A detailed comparison table (Section 5.12) is provided, highlighting the similarities in intended use and technical specifications, and justifying any differences.
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: The document does not refer to a "test set" in the context of patient data or clinical outcomes. The testing primarily involved bench testing of the device's hardware and software against technical specifications and safety standards. There is no indication of patient data being used for device performance evaluation.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable, as there is no patient data described as part of the performance evaluation. The data provenance described relates to manufacturing standards and regulatory compliance.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:
- Ground Truth Experts: Not applicable in the context of clinical ground truth. The "ground truth" for the device's acceptable performance was established by its compliance with recognized international standards (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ISO 10993-1) and comparison to the technical specifications of legally marketed predicate devices. The experts involved would be engineers and testing personnel at accredited laboratories. Their qualifications are implicitly that they are subject matter experts in the respective testing domains (e.g., electrical safety, EMC, biocompatibility).
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
- Adjudication Method: Not applicable. There was no clinical data requiring expert adjudication. Device performance was assessed against technical specifications and regulatory standards.
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:
- MRMC Study: No. This device is a biofeedback device, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human readers. No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was conducted.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Standalone Performance: Not applicable in the context of an algorithm's diagnostic performance. The device's "standalone" performance refers to its ability to accurately measure and process physiological signals according to its technical specifications, which was assessed through bench testing and compliance with standards. The device itself is an interface and amplifier, and its function is to provide accurate data to the clinician's software, which is then used in a human-in-the-loop biofeedback process.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- Type of Ground Truth: The ground truth used was technical specifications, international safety standards, and performance characteristics of legally marketed predicate devices. For example, a specified gain accuracy of ±1% or a CMRR of >130 dB would be the "ground truth" to which the device's measured performance was compared during testing.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Training Set Sample Size: Not applicable. This device is a hardware biofeedback system, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set of data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable. As there is no AI/ML algorithm involved, there is no training set or ground truth for such a set.

All three devices are intended for EEG biofeedback (neurofeedback). EEG biofeedback is a process that is intended to help the client to control his own state through shaping electrical brain activity in a manner that promotes a state of relaxed alertness. The NeuroAmp and the predicate device Procomp can also be used with other conventional biofeedback sensors. ProComp can be operated with a wider range of sensors than the NeuroAmp, e.g. with sensors intended for performing muscle reeducation. Therefore, the intended use of the NeuroAmp does not include biofeedback for the purpose of muscle reeducation, as that term is conventionally understood (application to spinal cord injury, etc). On the other hand, simply training the person toward a relaxed and alert state also has implications for regulation of the motor system. A trainee is likely to also feel motorically calmed.
The differences in technological characteristics between EEG NeuroAmp and the predicate devices ProComp and Brainmaster can be summarized as follows:
- Power supply via USB-port (5V) instead of battery supply (in the case of the Procomp) .

- Results of electrode contact measurement (impedance check) are displayed directly on the . device
- The impedance measurement needs to be engaged explicitly, and is disabled during EEG . neurofeedback. This feature differentiates the EEG NeuroAmp from the current Brainmaster, where the impedance measurement is continuous throughout.
- . The device monitors galvanic voltages throughout the training process.
- The bandwidth extends to lower EEG frequencies. .
- The temperature range of the pIRx3 is narrower than that of the Procomp temperature sensor, . but is totally sufficient for measuring forehead temperature.
The fact that the EEG NeuroAmp is powered via the serial port of the therapist computer does not affect safety or effectiveness because the device is galvanically isolated from the computer by means of a medical grade isolating transformer and has shown full compliance to IEC 60601-1.
Since qood electrode contact quality is essential for effective EEG-biofeedback therapy, the easy-touse impedance measurement function of the NeuroAmp contributes to clinical success.
The software provides for continuous monitoring of any 60-Hz contamination of the EEG, as an index to contact quality throughout the biofeedback process. The clinician is alerted on screen whenever criteria are violated.
The NeuroAmp extends the bandwidth to lower frequencies than typical EEG amplifiers because these have turned out to be of biological interest as well.
5.13 Summary of Device Testing
The EEG NeuroAmp and its optional accessory plRx3 have been tested according to IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 by accredited laboratories and have shown full compliance to these standards and the other standards listed in chapter 9 of this 510(k).
The software was tested as described in section 16 "Software".
The optional accessory "passive infrared temperature sensor plRx3" has been tested according to ISO 10993-1 by an FDA recognized testing laboratory according to GLP standards. The housing material and the elastic belt that fastens the device to the head have both been tested.
The elastic belt conforms to the German "Oko-Tex-Standard" which is a quality mark for clothing regarding certain residues. The belt is made of cotton and therefore did not pass the test for cytotoxicity. Due to this effect the belt is suitable for use on intact skin only. It did pass the tests for dermal irritation and sensitization. Normally, there is hair between the blient's skin, unless the client is bald.
The housing material has passed all tests. It shows full compliance to the standard 10993-1. See also section 15 "Biocompatibility".
5.14 Conclusions
Based on the above, Corscience GmbH & Co. KG concludes, that EEG NeuroAmp is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices and iffective for its intended use, and performs as well as or better than the predicate devices.
