Device Description
PMT Subdural Cortical Electrodes (Dual Side Macro Electrodes, Dual Side Micro Electrodes, Dual Side Macro-Micro Electrodes, Dual Sided Hemispherical Macro Electrodes, Dual Sided Hemispherical Micro Electrodes, Dual Side Hemispherical Macro-Micro Electrodes, Macro Strip, Macro-Micro Grids, Macro-Micro Strips, Micro Grids, and Micro Strips.) The Subdural Cortical Electrode is used intraoperatively for monitoring recordable electrical brain activity. This invasive intracranial, subdural electrode recording is performed directly on the surgically exposed brain. This method is necessary when the seizure focus is too small and or too deep within the brain to produce a recordable EEG seizure. The Subdural Cortical Electrode strip and grid electrode are used in cases where it is necessary to establish a high degree of confidence in the electrical localization (foci), seizure frequency, severity type and other electro-clinical characteristics. Macro Electrodes use 2mm, 3mm or 4.5mm diameter platinum circular recording discs. Micro Electrodes are single wires with the distal tip exposed and flush with the surface of the silicone. They are made of the same material used in the assembly of the Electrode. The Micro electrode allow for more precise definition of the Epileptic activity. They can be used solo or in combination with Macro recording discs. The PMT device consists of one or more electrically contacts. The model number 2110 indicates a platinum alloy wire and platinum alloy electrode contacts. The electrodes' contacts are molded into a silicone rubber matrix in a fixed pattern. Insulated wires extend from each electrode through a flexible silicone tube to connector for EEG monitoring. The electrode material for the 2110-XXX is 90:10 platinum iridium
More Information

No
The description focuses on the physical characteristics and intended use of subdural cortical electrodes for recording and stimulating electrical signals on the brain's surface. There is no mention of any computational analysis, algorithms, or learning processes that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No.
The device is intended for recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals on the surface of the brain, not for treating a condition.

Yes

Explanation: The device is intended for "recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals on the surface of the brain" and is used to "establish a high degree of confidence in the electrical localization (foci), seizure frequency, severity type and other electro-clinical characteristics." This focuses on gathering information to understand a patient's condition, which is a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly details physical components such as electrodes, wires, silicone matrix, and connectors, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is used for "recording, monitoring and stimulation of electrical signals on the surface of the brain." This is an in vivo (within the living body) procedure, not an in vitro (outside the living body) test on a specimen.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for temporary use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for direct interaction with the brain's electrical activity.
  • Anatomical Site: The device is applied directly to the "surface of the brain."

Therefore, the PMT Subdural Cortical Electrodes are medical devices used for neurological monitoring and stimulation within the body, not for testing specimens outside the body.
