No
The summary describes standard acoustic measurement and analysis techniques, comparing results against normative data. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for analysis, interpretation, or diagnosis.
No
The device is described as a diagnostic tool used to determine the presence of cochlear and middle ear functions and to assist in diagnosing or differentiating between ear dysfunctions. It does not provide any form of therapy or treatment.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended to "assist in diagnosing middle ear pathologies" and "assist in differential diagnosis between cochlear and middle ear dysfunctions." The "Device Description" also mentions its use for "differential diagnosis."
No
The device description explicitly states that the OtoStat is a "small portable handheld audiometric measurement device" that includes "loudspeakers in the acoustic ear probe" and a "microphone in the same acoustic ear probe" to present acoustic stimuli and record responses. This indicates the presence of physical hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body. The device description clearly states that the OtoStat measures acoustic properties within the ear canal and records pressure frequency responses via a microphone in the ear probe. It does not analyze biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The intended use is to assess physiological function. The intended uses describe determining the presence of cochlear function, characterizing middle ear status, and assisting in diagnosing middle ear pathologies. These are assessments of the in vivo function of the ear, not in vitro analysis of samples.
The device is a diagnostic tool, but it falls under the category of medical devices that perform measurements and analysis in vivo (within the living body) rather than in vitro (in a test tube or laboratory setting).

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of the OtoStat DPOAE Measurement is to determine the presence of cochlear function.
The intended use of the OtoStat MEPA Middle Ear Power Analyzer is to characterize the middle ear status and to assist in diagnosing middle ear pathologies.
The intended use of the OtoStat DPOAE+MEPA is to determine the presence of cochlear and middle ear functions and to assist in differential diagnosis between cochlear and middle ear dysfunctions.
The OtoStat MEPA system measures various acoustic properties of the ear, namely power reflectance, power absorbance, transmittance, wideband immittance, and equivalent ear canal volume. These measures allow the evaluation of the functional condition of the middle and outer ear.

Device Description
The OtoStat is a small portable handheld audiometric measurement device for measuring either DPOAE (distortion product otoacoustic emission), MEPA (middle ear power analysis), or both, where DPOAE is for evaluating cochlear function and MEPA for middle and outer ear status. Both MEPA and DPOAE measurements present acoustic stimulus into the ear canal via the loudspeakers in the acoustic ear probe, then record the complex pressure frequency responses via the microphone in the same acoustic ear probe. The responses are then analyzed and displayed against relevant normative data with recommended pass/refer indication for the trained user to determine the cochlear and middle ear status and for differential diagnosis.
Mimosa Acoustics OtoStat DPOAE and CUB®DIS-DPOAE Measurement System (K981460) have the same technical design and use the same ear probe. The Oto Stat DPOAE is designed to provide stimuli for rapid clinical measurement and evaluation of odd order distortion product tones generated by the cochlea, and measured in the external ear canal. These tones are known as distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs). The system measures 4, 6, or 12 audiometric octave frequencies (or other frequencies, as desired), between 500 through 8000 Hz with no known artifacts, a low system-noise floor, and a high signal-to-noise ratio. The presence in the ear of a cubic (2f1-f2) distortion tone that is detectable above the system noise level indicates the presence of healthy outer-hair-cell activity in the cochlea. The distortion product level and the corresponding noise floor level are plotted together with recommended pass/refer indicator.
Mimosa Acoustics OtoStat middle-ear power analyzer (MEPA) and HearID middle-ear power analyzer (MEPA3) (K053216) have the same technical design and use the same ear probe. With the ear probe in the patient's ear canal,the MEPA software generated acoustic stimulus is delivered into the external ear canal. Some of the sound is absorbed by the middle ear and the remainder is reflected back into the ear canal. The percentage of reflected power to incident power is defined as power reflectance (IT'). Different middle-ear conditions affect the amount of power that is reflected or absorbed in each frequency band. MEPA measures and plots reflectance, as well as other related acoustic characteristics of the ear, over a wide frequency range, aiding the diagnosis of middle-ear disorders. The OtoStat MEPA instrumentation employs computer-generated stimuli, automated data monitoring, and advanced signal processing for noise and artifact rejection.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Nonclinical Performance Evaluations:
Following the design control procedure, the performance verification and validation of the OtoStat DPOAE and MEPA Measurement System was conducted by comparing their functionality against CUB DIS-DIS-DPOAE and HearID MEPA Measurement Systems, the predicate devices, for various test conditions. The test results demonstrate substantial equivalence in its effectiveness.
Bench mark evaluations were performed in accordance to the recognized consensus standards. The OtoStat has been demonstrated to comply with Medical Electrical Equipment, Part 1: General Requirements for Safety (IEC 60601-1).
Conclusion: The OtoStat DPOAE+MEPA as a modification to the predicate devices (the original devices) uses the same or identical technology and has the same intended use as the cited predicate devices, and is therefore substantially equivalent (21 CFR 807.92(a)(3)). The nonclinical performance evaluations have demonstrated it is as safe and effectiveness as the original and predicate devices.
