No
The summary describes a standard system for measuring bioelectric signals and nerve responses. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any features that would suggest the use of such technologies for analysis, interpretation, or decision support. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No.
Explanation: The device is intended for diagnosis and prognosis of neuromuscular disease, and for monitoring, not for providing therapy or treatment.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended "to aid the clinician in the diagnosis and prognosis of neuromuscular disease (EMG)." It also mentions its use for "evoked response measurements (EP)" and to "determine autonomic responses as psychological indicators." These functions directly relate to diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a main acquisition unit, operation control panel, foot switch, electrode junction box, electrical stimulation box, and optional stimulators, in addition to commercially available computer hardware. The performance studies also mention both software and hardware verification and validation.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze samples taken from the body (in vitro - "in glass"). This device directly measures bioelectric signals from the patient's body (in vivo - "in the living").
- The intended use describes measuring electrical activity from muscles, nerves, skin, and the brain. These are all direct measurements from the patient.
- The device description details components for applying stimuli and recording electrical signals directly from the patient. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
Therefore, the Nihon Kohden MEB-2300A Neuropack Evoked Potential and EMG Measuring System is a medical device for in vivo physiological measurement, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Nihon Kohden MEB-2300A Neuropack Evoked Potential and EMG Measuring System is intended to monitor, record and display the bioelectric signals produced by muscles, to stimulate peripheral nerves, and to monitor, record and display the electrical activity produced by nerves to aid the clinician in the diagnosis and prognosis of neuromuscular disease (EMG). The device is also intended to measure and display nerve conduction time by applying a stimulus to a patient's nerve (NCV). The device may use electrical stimulus, visual stimulus, or sound stimulus for use in evoked response measurements (EP). The device may be used to determine autonomic responses as psychological indicators by measuring the electrical resistance of the skin and the tissue path between two electrodes applied to the skin. The device may also measure and record the electrical activity of the patient's brain obtained by placing two or more electrodes on the head (EEG).

The data can also be archived to other commercially available storage medias .
2.0 Intended Use of Device
The Nihon Kohden MEB-2300A Neuropack Evoked Potential and EMG Measuring System is intended to monitor, record and display the bioelectric signals produced by muscles, to stimulate peripheral nerves, and to monitor, record and display the electrical activity produced by nerves to aid the clinician in the diagnosis and prognosis of neuromuscular disease (EMG). The device is also intended to measure and display nerve conduction time by applying a stimulus to a patient's nerve (NCV). The device may use electrical stimulus, visual stimulus, or sound stimulus for use in evoked response measurements (EP). The device may be used to determine autonomic responses as psychological indicators by measuring the electrical resistance of the skin and the tissue path between two electrodes applied to the skin. The device may also measure and record the electrical activity of the patient's brain obtained by placing two or more electrodes on the head (EEG).
The device is intended for use by medical personnel within a hospital, laboratory, clinic or nursing home setting or outside of a medical facility under direct supervision of a medical professional. The device may also be placed in the intensive care unit or operating room for continuous recording.
The device is available for use on any patient as determined by the medical professional including adults and children.
3.0 Technical Characteristics
Setup for the device is performed by a medical professional in the graphical user interface environment of Windows XP or Windows 7. The operator enters patient identification data and specifies the testing protocol. The testing protocol specifies amplifier, acquisition, stimulation, and special parameters for recording data. Recording electrodes and/or sensors are attached to the patient and connected to the corresponding jacks on the junction box. Stimulation electrodes and/or accessories may also be connected. Skin-electrode impedance check is performed from the electrode junction box or the computer software to verify electrode connection and confirm impedance levels for non-invasive recording electrodes. Stimulation is activated to the patient if specified in the protocol.
The device provides 6 or 12 differential channels. Each channel has a pre-amplifier, post-amplifier, low pass filter, and high pass filter. Analog signals from the electrodes and/or sensors are transmitted to a preamplifier for conditioning. The signal output is then fed to the analog to digital converter (ADC).
2
The digitized electrophysiologic signals may be displayed on the monitor, printed, and/or stored to hard disk drives or other storage media. After completion of the study, the patient is disconnected from the device and medical professional prints and/or stores the data. The data can then be reviewed by a medical professional on the MEB-2300A/K system or another computer containing MEB-2300A/K review software.

Dear Mr. Steve Geerdes:
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 indicationsfor 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.
