The GALILEO NT Line software is intended to record and display EEG, PSG, EMG and EP data acquired from the patient body through EBNeuro proprietary, FDA cleared, Acquisition Platform.(BE Plus LTM K121986, BE micro K093728, Nemus 2 system K133517.)
The device is intended to be used in the clinical and hospital environment (including the hospital room, emergency room, intensive care unit, neuro-intensive care unit) to aid the diagnosis and monitoring of potential disorders of the central and peripheral nervous system and muscles
Galileo NT Line is a software package running on a Personal Computer under Windows Operative System. This package is devoted to the complete management of various exams in the Neurodiagnostic field of application, as electroencephalography, electromyography, Evoked Potentials etc.
The product is essentially a suite of applications dedicated to the comprehensive management of neurological diagnostics in a Department of Neurophysiology, etc. ... starting from the patient's acceptance, the execution of specific tests, and finally to the production of the exam reports. The package is substantially made by a common "platform" and by various independent modules, each of which is devoted to a particular application (EEG, Video EEG, EMG, EP, ICU, etc.). All the parts of the package together with the related User Documentation are residing on the same distribution media (a DVD).
As illustrated by figure 1 below, GALILEO NT Line (simply Galileo NT in other documents of this submission) is a "software only device" that can control and acquire data from a series of (FDA cleared) Amplifier platforms developed by EBNeuro for the Neurodiagnostic field and specifically :
For each of the above devices, Galileo NT provides the appropriate "software interface" module in order to allow the control of the Amplifier (and of all the accessories eventually provided with it, as, for example, the Evoked Potential stimulators embedded in the Nemus 1 and 2 hardware) and in order to collect the acquired data. The data, once acquired from the amplifier, are "passed" to the specialized module for successive handling as display, measure, printing, trending, archiving and so on.
The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification for the EB Neuro Galileo NT Line software. This document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on technological characteristics and intended use, rather than presenting a performance study with detailed acceptance criteria and results.
Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets them in the format specified (a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or ground truth details for testing/training).
Specifically:
- 1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This information is not present. The document focuses on comparing the software's features and intended use to predicate devices, not on quantitative performance metrics with associated acceptance criteria.
- 2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable, as a performance study of this nature is not described.
- 3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable.
- 4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
- 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: Not applicable. This is a software package for recording and displaying physiological data, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool that assists human readers.
- 6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. The device is a software suite for managing neurodiagnostic exams, not an algorithm with standalone diagnostic performance.
- 7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable.
- 8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as no algorithm training is described for diagnostic performance.
- 9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
The document explicitly states under "Summary of Clinical Tests": "No clinical tests were performed." This further confirms that no performance study as described in your request was conducted for this 510(k) submission. The FDA clearance was based on substantial equivalence to existing devices and compliance with relevant industry standards (ISO 14971, IEC 62304, IEC 62366) for design and development, rather than a clinical performance study.
