The summary describes a device for acquiring and transmitting biopotential signals. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The device appears to be a hardware component for data acquisition, not a system that processes data using AI/ML algorithms.
No
The device's intended use is to acquire and transmit biopotentials (like EEG, EMG, EOG, ECG) to a computer for data capture and digitization, not for providing therapy.
No.
The device is described as an amplifier intended to acquire biopotentials and transmit them to a computer. It explicitly states it "captures the data, converts it into digital form and passes it on to a host computer running appropriate software." This indicates it's a data acquisition device, not one that performs analysis or diagnosis. The "Intended Use" section only describes data acquisition, not diagnostic interpretation.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system consists of hardware components including an AC/DC adapter, the g.HIamp amplification and digitization unit, electrode connector boxes with cables, and a USB connector cable, in addition to software.
Based on the provided text, the g.Hlamp amplifier is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health.
- g.Hlamp Function: The g.Hlamp amplifier is described as a device that acquires biopotentials directly from the body (EEG, EMG, EOG, ECG). It does not analyze specimens taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to acquire and transmit these biopotentials, not to perform diagnostic tests on samples.
Therefore, the g.Hlamp amplifier falls under the category of a medical device that measures physiological signals directly from the patient, not an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The g.Hlamp amplifier is intended to be used to acquire biopotentials and transmit them to a computer via the USB port connection. These biopotentials include for example electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG), electrooculogram (EOG), and electrocardiogram (ECG).

Device Description
The g.Hlamp is a fully programmable system which provides a total of 256 analog input channels each of which can be configured, amplified and converted to digital form (analog to digital conversion). The applied part is digitally isolated. The amplifier receives its power from a dedicated AC/DC adapter, meeting the IEC 601-1 requirements, which feeds in +5V DC. Internally, the +5V DC is further isolated by a dedicated DC/DC type converter.
The g.Hlamp amplifier is intended to be used to acquire biopotentials and transmit them to a computer via the USB port connection. These biopotentials include for example electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG), electrooculogram (EOG), and electrocardiogram (ECG). It captures the data, converts it into digital form and passes it on to a host computer running appropriate software. The device can be used for adults, children, infants and animals. The host computer must use Microsoft Windows 7. g.Hlamp comes a driver and with a C Application Programming Interface (C API) which allows to control the device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The amplifier was tested with an external signal generator which applies sinusoidal signals with different frequencies and amplitudes to the inputs of the amplifier. The correct signal transmission and amplification are determined with BODE diagrams for each channel. The impedance measurement was tested with test impedances. Noise was tested by short-cutting the input channels. The tests show that the signal quality is appropriate for EEG measurements and that impedance measurements are accurate.

The amplifier was tested with an external signal generator which applies sinusoidal signals with different frequencies and amplitudes to the inputs of the amplifier. The correct signal transmission and amplification are determined with BODE diagrams for each channel. The impedance measurement was tested with test impedances. Noise was tested by short-cutting the input channels. The tests show that the signal quality is appropriate for EEG measurements and that impedance measurements are accurate.
In both devices g.Hlamp and g.USBamp medical safety is realized by isolating the applied part with digital isolators, DC/DC converters and using a medical power supply unit. The current for impedance measurement is limited to be safe.
807.92(b)(2)
Not applicable
807.92(b)(3)
The conclusion is that g.Hlamp and the predicate device amplify sinusoidal signals with varying frequencies and amplitudes in the same way and that the amplifier is working substantial equivalent and as effective as the marketed device. g.Hlamp is using the same key components for medical safety as g.USBamp and is therefore considered to be safe.
