The X-Series System is intended for prescription use in the home, healthcare facility, or clinical research environment to acquire, transmit, display and store physiological signals from patients ages 6 and older. The X-Series system requires operation by a trained technician. The X-Series System acquires, transmits, displays and stores electroencephalogram (EEG), electrooculogram (EOG), electrocardiogram (ECG), and/or electromyogram (EMG), and accelerometer signals. The X-Series System only acquires and displays physiological signals, no claims are being made for analysis of the acquired signals with respect to the accuracy, precision and reliability.
The X-Series System is indicated for acquiring, transmitting, displaying and storing physiological data in patients. It can be used with ambulatory patients in the home, health care facility, or clinical research environment. The X-Series system requires operation by a trained technician. The X-Series System.is comprised the X10 and X24 Headsets and accessories, Synapse Cream, X-Series Basic Software and BT receiving unit. The X-Series Basic Software is also compatible with the Models X4-E, and X4-M (K130013) when used in wireless mode. The X-Series System combines hardware, firmware and software to acquire physiological signals. It acquires physiological data through a battery powered headset worn by the patient and provides a flexible platform for applying sensors using synapse cream and acquiring signals from multiple locations on the head or body, transmitting and recording the signals and providing visual indications to ensure high quality data are obtained. Model X24 provides for acquisition of twenty channels of electroencephalography (EEG) and four optional channels connected to two sensors via a dual-lead connector. Model X10 provides for acquisition of nine channels of electroencephalography (EEG) and an optional channel connected to two sensors via a dual-lead connector. Both models measure movement and position measured via a 3-D accelerometer. The device is designed so it can be affixed by a technician and displays the signals via a wireless connection during acquisition. The X-Series Basic software monitors signal quality to ensure that the sensors are properly applied and that high quality signals are being acquired. The X-Series Basic software provides a means to: a) initiate a study and track patient information, b) acquire and wirelessly transmit signals from the device, c) visually inspect the signal quality. The acquired signals are saved in a universal data format (European Data Format Plus, EDF+) that is intended to be analyzed by a Physician using FDA cleared third party software, i.e. Persyst Software (K011397).
This document describes the X-Series System, an electroencephalograph device for acquiring, transmitting, displaying, and storing physiological data. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K130013 X4 System) through non-clinical and limited clinical testing.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The document leverages comparison to a predicate device and adherence to recognized standards as its primary acceptance criteria. Performance metrics are largely presented as being equivalent to the predicate.
| Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Criteria (from document) | Reported Device Performance (X-Series System) |
|---|---|---|
| Functional Equivalence | Equivalence to predicate device (X4 System) for electrophysiological (EEG, EOG, ECG, EMG), wireless acquisition, and actigraphy. Technologies used in the same manner. | EEG: Sampling Rate: 256 s/s, 0.1 Hz High Pass (hardware), 100 Hz Low Pass (hardware), Dynamic range: +/- 1000μV, Resolution 0.03 µV, Peak to peak noise: 3.7 µV (typical), 110dB Common Mode Rejection Ratio (typically), Input Impedance: 100GOhm (Equivalent to X4) Aux - EOG/EMG: Sampling rate 256 Hz, 0.1 Hz High Pass (hardware), 100 Hz Low Pass (hardware).

Sensitivity: 10 bit / 2g, Non-linearity: +/-0.5 %FS, Cross-Axis: +/-1 %, Zero-Level: +/-0.35-0.4 mg, Sensitivity change due temperature: +/-0.01 LSB/°C (Equivalent to X4) Bench tests confirmed EEG and optional dual-lead (for ECG) analog signals were equivalent to predicate. Actigraph measures were equivalent. |
| Electrical Safety | Compliance with IEC 60601-2-26:2002 (Electroencephalographs) and IEC 60601-1-11: 2010 (Home healthcare environment) | All tests "passing demonstrating the compliance of the X-Series system to FDA recognized standards for electro-medical equipment." |
| Biocompatibility | Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Irritation per ISO 10993 standards (for patient-contacting components). | Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5): No reactivity (grade 0) in all cultures. Concluded "Non-cytotoxic." Sensitization (ISO 10993-10): Irritation absent from all animals, animals gained weight, no overt toxicity, no skin reaction scores. Concluded "Non-sensitizer." Irritation (ISO 10993-10): No signs of erythema or edema at observation points. Test Primary Irritation Index (PII) was 0.0. Concluded "Non-irritant." |
| Cleaning & Disinfection | Acceptance criteria: ≥ log 3.0 reduction in bioburden after cleaning according to instructions, per AAMI TIR 12-94 and AAMI TIR 30: 2003. | "All tests passed and demonstrate that the cleaning methods are appropriate for ensuring the X-Series acquisition device is clean between uses." |
| Software Integrity | Verification and validation of specifications, function, and intended use, per FDA's Guidance for Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices (May 2005). | "The results of the verification and validation activities that have been performed demonstrate that the software meets requirements for safety, function, and intended use." |
| EEG Electrode Performance | Electrical performance acceptable, using applicable methods from AAMI/ANS1 EC12:2000 (R)2010. | "The results demonstrate electrical performance of the EEG electrodes used with the X-Series System is acceptable." |
| Clinical Performance (Ages 6+) | Ability to acquire appropriate EEG recordings in children aged 6-8, with equivalent data quality to adults. | 100% of EEG sessions contained appropriate EEG recordings. Data quality from children was equivalent to an equivalent adult population. Technician setup was quick, and no discomfort or agitation was reported by subjects. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and the Data Provenance:
- Non-clinical bench tests (EEG, ECG, Actigraph comparison): The sample size is not explicitly stated as 'n=X' but implies a sufficient number of measurements were taken from the X-Series and predicate devices to compare their performance in a jig and with an oscilloscope/signal generator.
- Biocompatibility: The specific number of items/animals per test is mentioned in the results (e.g., "all the animals," "all test animals").
- Cytotoxicity: Mammalian cell cultures (mouse fibroblast L929).
- Sensitization: Albino guinea pigs.
- Irritation: New Zealand White rabbits.
- Clinical tests (for ages 6+):
- Sample size: Seven children aged 6-8 and seven adults.
- Data provenance: "A subset of data from a research study was analyzed." This suggests the data was retrospective and likely collected in a clinical research environment (Country of origin not specified, but likely USA given the FDA submission).
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts:
- Non-clinical tests: The document implies standard laboratory testing procedures and comparisons to the predicate, overseen by qualified personnel. No specific "experts" for ground truth establishment are mentioned as the tests rely on objective measurements and established standards.
- Clinical tests (for ages 6+): The document states that the acquired EEG recordings "could be further examined in third-party software" by a Physician. While a physician would interpret the EEG, their role in establishing "ground truth" for the device's acquisition capabilities (the focus of this study) is not explicitly detailed. The acceptance criteria here are about the ability to acquire appropriate EEG recordings and data quality equivalence, which are evaluated directly from the device's output. The "ground truth" for this aspect is the objective quality of the signals themselves, compared between subject groups.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
- No formal adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1) is mentioned for any of the studies.
- The non-clinical tests rely on objective measurement against defined specifications or predicate device performance.
- The clinical study for children's EEG acquisition focused on the presence of "appropriate EEG recordings" and data quality equivalence, which would likely be assessed by comparing signal characteristics.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done, If So, What was the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs without AI Assistance:
- No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done.
- The X-Series System is a data acquisition device; it explicitly states, "The X-Series System only acquires and displays physiological signals, no claims are being made for analysis of the acquired signals with respect to the accuracy, precision and reliability." It is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was Done:
- Not applicable. This device is purely for data acquisition and display, to be interpreted by a physician using separate (third-party) software. There is no algorithm providing diagnostic or analytical output within the X-Series System itself.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
- Non-clinical/Bench tests: Objective measurements (e.g., signal generator output, oscilloscope readings, defined angles for actigraph, standard test methods for biocompatibility and cleaning). The comparison to the predicate device serves as a de facto "ground truth" for performance equivalence where applicable.
- Clinical tests (for ages 6+): The "ground truth" for this specific study was the presence of "appropriate EEG recordings" and subjectively assessed "equivalent data quality" for the acquired signals between age groups. This relies on the qualitative assessment of electrical signal characteristics typically reviewed by trained professionals.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
- Not explicitly stated, nor is a dedicated "training set" relevant for this device. The X-Series System is a data acquisition device, not a machine learning model that requires a training set. The clinical study for ages 6+ was a validation of its acquisition capabilities, not for training an algorithm.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:
- Not applicable, as no training set was used for a machine learning algorithm.

DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:
SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL TESTS:
Support for the substantial equivalence of the X-Series System was provided as a result of risk management and testing which included electrical and biological safety, performance and software tests. Testing has provided reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness for the intended use and supports a determination of substantial equivalence.
Bench tests were conducted using an oscilloscope and signal generator to compare performance of the X-Series to the predicate device. These comparison tests confirm the EEG
{8}------------------------------------------------
and optional dual-lead (for ECG) analog signals between the X-Series and predicate devices were equivalent. The X-Series and X4 were placed in a jig that held the devices in eight unique angles to confirm that the measures obtained from the 3D actigraphs were equivalent. While the X-Series System is not a cardiac monitor as defined in the scope of ANSI/AAMI EC 13, the standard was referenced and requirements and test methods applicable to the electrocardiogram acquired and displayed by X-Series was applied. These tests demonstrated the equivalence of the X-Series system to the predicate device for EEG, ECG and actigraph performance.
The cleaning and disinfection procedures of the X-Series acquisition device have been validated by testing in accordance with AAMI TIR 12-94 Designing, Testing, and Labeling Reusable Medical Devices for Reprocessing in Health Care Facilities: A Guide for Manufacturers and AAMI TIR 30: 2003 A Compendium of Processes, Materials, Test Methods, and Acceptance Criteria for Cleaning Reusable Medical Devices. Acceptance criteria established by Advanced Brain Monitoring and the TIR are ≥ log 3.0 reduction in bioburden after cleaning according to the instructions for use. All tests passed and demonstrate that the cleaning methods are appropriate for ensuring the X-Series acquisition device is clean between uses.
Biocompatibility was assessed following FDA Guidance "Use of International Standard ISO-10993, 'Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing' (Replaces #G87-1 #8294) (blue book memo)". Per Table 1 of this guidance, the X-Series System is a Surface device with limited contact (Category A, less than 24 hours contact). As such, cytotoxicity, sensitization, and irritation or intracutaneous reactivity tests were selected. Test methods were in compliance with the corresponding standard from the ISO 10993 series for Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices. Test articles were comprised of all patient contacting components of the X-Series System, including the X-Series Strip with disposable foam and synapse cream, X-Series Strap and X-Series enclosure. Results of biocompatibility testing are summarized in table 2 and demonstrate that materials of the device in contact with the patient are biocompatible.

SUMMARY OF CLINICAL TESTS:
To provide additional support for use in ages 6 and older, a subset of data from a research study was analyzed to establish use of the X-10 and X-24 headsets to acquire EEG in this patient population. Data from seven children ages 6-8 were compared to data from seven adults. The subjects were set-up by a technician with the X-Series strip appropriate based on their head measurements as described in the labeling. Technicians were able to quickly set-up subjects and resolve any high impedance issues as displayed by the X-Series Software. None of the subjects complained of discomfort or agitation in wearing the strips and the sensors remained in contact with the scalp for the duration of testing. 100% of all EEG sessions contained appropriate EEG recordings that could be further examined in third party software, and when data acquired from children are compared to an equivalent adult population, the data quality were equivalent.
CONCLUSION:
Based on the results of the non-clinical and clinical tests performed, Advanced Brain Monitoring considers the X-Series System to be as safe, as effective, and substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
