No
The device description explicitly states that the device's role is "only to record the data" and that it is "not in any way involved in the data management performed by the host." There is no mention of AI or ML in the document.
No
The device is a physiological data recorder used to collect and store physiological signals for analysis; it does not provide any treatment or therapy.
Yes
Explanation: The device is described as a "physiological data recorder intended to collect and record data from multiple physiological channels." It's used by or on the order of a physician and records various physiological signals (EEG, EOG, ECG, airflow, etc.). While it only records the data and a separate software performs analysis, the act of collecting and recording physiological data for eventual analysis by a physician for medical purposes falls under the umbrella of diagnostic activity. The Intended Use/Indications for Use states it's for recording data from "multiple physiological channels," which aligns with the initial stage of diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "wearable data recorder" that "collects and stores physiological signals," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.
Based on the provided information, the Galaxy device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The Galaxy device collects physiological data directly from the patient's body (EEG, EOG, ECG, airflow, etc.). It does not analyze blood, urine, tissue, or other biological samples.
- The device's function is solely data recording. The description explicitly states, "The role of the Galaxy is only to record the data." The analysis and reporting are performed by a separate, cleared host software application. IVDs typically perform the analysis themselves or are integral to the analytical process.
- The intended use is to collect and record physiological data. This is distinct from the purpose of an IVD, which is to provide information about a physiological state, disease, or condition based on the examination of a specimen.
In summary, the Galaxy is a physiological data recorder, not a device that analyzes biological specimens to provide diagnostic information.

Device Description
The Galaxy is a wearable data recorder that collects and stores physiological signals. The role of the Galaxy is only to record the data. The following physiological signals may be collected and stored by the Galaxy device:
-EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG
-Nasal/oral Airflow
-Snore
-Thoracic and Abdominal Effort
-Body Position
-Pulse Oximetry, including: Oxygen Saturation (SpO2), Pulse Rate, Plethysmograph
The recorded data is stored on a secure digital (SD) card and may be passed on to a PC for analysis and reporting of the data by a cleared host software application. The Galaxy data recorder is not in any way involved in the data management performed by the host.
