The summary describes disposable probes, cannulas, and cables for recording and stimulating electrical signals in the brain, which are passive or active components without mention of data processing or algorithmic analysis. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related terms.
No
The device is used for temporary stimulation and recording electrical signals in the brain to aid in the placement of depth electrodes, rather than directly treating a disease or condition.
Yes
The device is described as being used for "temporary stimulation of, or recording electrical signals of a small area in the brain," and "to aid in placement of depth electrodes," which are diagnostic activities.
No
The device description explicitly mentions "Sterile Disposables for MER," which are physical components (NeuroProbes, Cannulas, Recording Cables) used in neurosurgery. This indicates the device is not software-only.
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 (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Function: The description clearly states the devices are used in neurosurgery for temporary stimulation of, or recording electrical signals of a small area in the brain. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body during a surgical procedure, not an analysis of a specimen outside the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to aid in placement of depth electrodes during functional neurosurgery. This is a surgical guidance and monitoring function, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
Therefore, these devices fall under the category of surgical instruments or accessories used during a medical procedure, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Trade/Device Name: Sterile Disposables for MER Regulation Number: 21 CFR 882.1330 Regulation Name: Depth Electrode Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: GZL Dated: March 7, 2012 Received: May 30, 2012
Dear Mr. Sharon:
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.
