More Information

Not Found

No
The provided text does not mention AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms, nor does it describe features or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML-powered devices.

No
The device is described as a "diagnostic ultrasound system" and its intended use is for "diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis," indicating its purpose is to identify or diagnose conditions, not to treat them.

Yes
The "Intended Use" explicitly states "Diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body," and the "Device Description" refers to it as a "portable laptop diagnostic ultrasound system."

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "portable laptop diagnostic ultrasound system," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided information, the Edan AX4 Ultrasound system is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Definition of IVD: In vitro diagnostic devices are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue samples, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or a congenital abnormality, or to monitor therapeutic measures.
  • Intended Use: The intended use of the Edan AX4 is for "Diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body". This involves imaging the internal structures of the body directly, not examining samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "portable laptop diagnostic ultrasound system". This aligns with in vivo imaging, not in vitro testing.
  • Lack of Mention of Samples: There is no mention of the device being used with biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.).

Therefore, the Edan AX4 Ultrasound system is an in vivo diagnostic imaging device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 892.1550 Ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system.

(a)
Identification. An ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system is a device that combines the features of continuous wave doppler-effect technology with pulsed-echo effect technology and is intended to determine stationary body tissue characteristics, such as depth or location of tissue interfaces or dynamic tissue characteristics such as velocity of blood or tissue motion. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Worth:

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 indications for 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.

In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR

1

Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

The subject device has same intended use, similar product design, same performance effectiveness, and performance safety as the predicate device.

The differences between the subject device and predicate device do not affect the basic design principle, usage, effectiveness and safety of the subject device. And no question is raised regarding to effectiveness and safety.

10. Effectiveness and Safety Considerations:

Clinical test:

Clinical testing is not required.

Non-clinical test:

The Acclarix AX4 Ultrasound Imaging System complies with:

(1) IEC 60601-1 Electrical Safety

(2) IEC 60601-1-2 Electromagnetic Compatibility

(3) IEC 60601-2-37 Requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of ultrasonic medical diagnostic and monitoring equipment

(4) NEMA UD 3 Standard for real-time display of thermal and mechanical acoustic output indices on diagnostic ultrasound equipment.

(5) Acoustic output testing as per the guideline "Information for Manufacturers Seeking Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers" dated September 9, 2008.

The following biocompatibility standards are conducted on the subject device:

16

(1) ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10

The tests were selected to show substantial equivalence between the subject device and the predicate.

11. Substantially Equivalent Determination

Verification and validation testing has been conducted on the Acclarix AX4 Ultrasound Imaging System. This premarket notification submission demonstrates that Acclarix AX4 Ultrasound Imaging System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
