Intended Use
The ICP Monitor is intended for use as an interface between compatible strain gauge type pressure transducers and standard physiological pressure monitoring systems. The ICP Monitor is also intended for use as an independent pressure monitor for displaying the mean, systolic and diastolic values of a physiologic pressure waveform in the absence of an external patient monitor. The CereLink ICP Extension Cable is intended for use as a connecting cable between the ICP input channel of the CereLink ICP Monitor and a CereLink ICP Sensor.
Device Description
The CereLink ICP Monitor is intended for use in the ICU or OR environment for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) via a solid state sensor placed directly in parenchymal tissue or integrated into an external ventricular drainage catheter placed in the ventricle. In addition to monitoring ICP and activating alarms when the intracranial pressure is outside user-set limits, the device performs these functions: - Displays mean pressure values - Displays the pressure waveform - Displays the historic mean pressure as a trend - Displays trend statistics (Area Under the Curve (AUC), time above threshold, boxplot, histogram) - Stores 14-days' worth of mean ICP values - Stores 24 hours of pressure waveform - Can capture and store screen-shots - Can download various data to a USB device for printing or analysis The CereLink ICP Monitor can be transported with the patient within the hospital to continuously record data. The monitor includes a 7" color touch screen that is compatible with the use of gloves. The monitor is sold with an external power supply, and comes equipped with an internal rechargeable battery. The monitor has one output channel to transfer physiological data to a compatible Patient Monitor, as well as one input channel to receive ICP readings from the implanted ICP sensor. The implanted sensor is connected to the CereLink ICP Monitor by way of the CereLink ICP Extension Cable (code 82-6845). The CereLink ICP Monitor and CereLink ICP Extension Cable are intended to be used in conjunction with Codman's other neuromonitoring devices: the CereLink ICP Sensor Kits (codes 82-6850, 82-6851, 82-6852, and 82-6854 cleared via K173192) and the patient monitor interface cables (codes 82-6880, 82-6881, and 82-6882 cleared via K152670). The CereLink ICP Sensor converts the patients intracranial pressure to a voltage signal. The monitor provides power to the sensor, interprets the voltage signal from the sensor, and displays the corresponding pressure measurements taken by the sensor during a patient's treatment and during patient transport. There is no change to the currently marketed CereLink ICP Sensor Kits or the patient monitor interface cables as a result of the monitor modifications described in this submission.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on basic signal processing, display, storage, and data transfer functions, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms for analysis or interpretation. The performance studies also do not indicate any AI/ML components.

No
The device is described as a monitor that displays, stores, and transfers intracranial pressure (ICP) data and activates alarms when ICP is outside user-set limits. It does not actively treat or modify the patient's condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the device is for "displaying the mean, systolic and diastolic values of a physiologic pressure waveform". The "Device Description" further clarifies that it monitors "intracranial pressure (ICP) via a solid state sensor" and "displays the corresponding pressure measurements". This process of monitoring and displaying physiological parameters to aid in medical assessment falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes hardware components such as a 7" color touch screen, external power supply, internal rechargeable battery, input/output channels, and is sold with an extension cable. It also mentions bench testing and electrical safety testing, which are typically associated with hardware devices.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) via a sensor placed directly in tissue or a catheter. It acts as an interface and display for physiological pressure data.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that the device monitors ICP, displays pressure values and waveforms, and stores historical data. It interacts with an implanted sensor that converts pressure to a voltage signal.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: An IVD is a medical device that is used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, outside of the body (in vitro). This device does not perform any tests on such samples. It directly measures a physiological parameter within the body.

The device is a physiological monitoring device, specifically for intracranial pressure.

Dear Megan Palumbo:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. 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

12

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
