Intended Use

BrainScope One is indicated for use as an adjunct to standard clinical practice to aid in the evaluation of patients who are being considered for a head CT, who sustained a closed head injury within 72 hours, present with a Glasgow Coma Scale score (GCS) of 13-15 (including concussion / mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI)), and are between the ages of 18-85 years. The BrainScope One should not be used as a substitute for a CT scan.

The BrainScope One device is intended to record, measure, analyze, and display brain electrical activity utilizing the calculation of standard quantitative EEG (QEEG) parameters from frontal locations on a patient's forehead. The BrainScope One calculates and displays for the following standard QEEG measures: Absolute and Relative Power, Asymmetry, Coherence and Fractal Dimension. These raw measures are intended to be used for post hoc analysis of EEG signals for interpretation by a qualified user.

A negative BrainScope One Structural Injury Classification using brain electrical activity in patients who sustained a closed head injury within 72 hours, likely corresponds to those with no structural brain injury visible on head CT.

A positive BrainScope One Structural Injury Classification using brain electrical activity in patients who sustained a closed head injury within 72 hours, likely corresponds to those with a structural brain injury visible on head CT.

An equivocal BrainScope One Structural Injury Classification using brain electrical activity in patients who sustained a closed head injury within 72 hours, may correspond to structural brain injury visible on head CT or may indicate the need for further observation or evaluation.

The BrainScope One provides a measure of brain function (EEG Brain Function Index, (BFI)) for the statistical evaluation of the human electroencephalogram (EEG).

BrainScope One also provides clinicians with quantitative measures of cognitive performance to aid in the assessment of an individual's level of cognitive function. These measures do not interact with any other device measures, and are stand alone.

BrainScope One also stores and displays electronic of standardized clinical assessment tools that should be used in accordance with the assessment tools' general instructions. These tools do not interact with any other device measures, and are stand alone.

Device Description

BrainScope One is a portable, non-invasive, non-radiation emitting, point of care device intended to provide results and measures to support clinical assessments and aid in the diagnosis of traumatic brain injury (TBI). It also contains configurable, selectable cognitive performance tests and digitized standard assessment forms intended to provide a panel of measures to support the clinical assessment of head injury. BrainScope One provides healthcare professionals with a set of well-developed and researched concussion assessment tools.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the BrainScope One device. It indicates that "No clinical or non-clinical performance data was submitted to support the device modification being made. All clinical performance data from the Ahead 300 (predicate) submission still apply."

Therefore, based on the provided text, I cannot provide details about the acceptance criteria and study proving its adherence for BrainScope One, as the document explicitly states that this information was not submitted for the BrainScope One, but rather refers to the predicate device (Ahead 300).

To answer your request thoroughly, I would need access to the 510(k) submission for the Ahead 300 (K161068), which is the predicate device the BrainScope One references for its clinical performance data.

§ 882.1450 Brain injury adjunctive interpretive electroencephalograph assessment aid.

(a)
Identification. A brain injury adjunctive interpretive electroencephalograph assessment aid is a prescription device that uses a patient's electroencephalograph (EEG) to provide an interpretation of the structural condition of the patient's brain in the setting of trauma. A brain injury adjunctive interpretive EEG assessment aid is for use as an adjunct to standard clinical practice only as an assessment aid for a medical condition for which there exists other valid methods of diagnosis.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) The technical parameters of the device, hardware and software, must be fully characterized and include the following information:
(i) Hardware specifications must be provided. Appropriate verification, validation, and hazard analysis must be performed.
(ii) Software, including any proprietary algorithm(s) used by the device to arrive at its interpretation of the patient's condition, must be described in detail in the software requirements specification (SRS) and software design specification (SDS). Appropriate software verification, validation, and hazard analysis must be performed.
(2) The device parts that contact the patient must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(3) The device must be designed and tested for electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), thermal, and mechanical safety.
(4) Clinical performance testing must demonstrate the accuracy, precision-repeatability and reproducibility, of determining the EEG-based interpretation, including any specified equivocal zones (cutoffs).
(5) Clinical performance testing must demonstrate the ability of the device to function as an assessment aid for the medical condition for which the device is indicated. Performance measures must demonstrate device performance characteristics per the intended use in the intended use environment. Performance measurements must include sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) with respect to the study prevalence per the device intended use.
(6) The device design must include safeguards to ensure appropriate clinical interpretation of the device output (
e.g., use in appropriate patient population, or for appropriate clinical decision).(7) The labeling and training information must include:
(i) A warning that the device is not to be used as a stand-alone diagnostic.
(ii) A detailed summary of the clinical performance testing, including any adverse events and complications.
(iii) The intended use population and the intended use environment.
(iv) Any instructions technicians should convey to patients regarding the collection of EEG data.
(v) Information allowing clinicians to gauge clinical risk associated with integrating the EEG interpretive assessment aid into their diagnostic pathway.
(vi) Information allowing clinicians to understand how to integrate the device output into their diagnostic pathway when the device is unable to provide a classification or final result.
