Intended Use

The Dome Electrodes are intended for non-invasive use with recording and monitoring equipment of Electromyography (EMG).

Device Description

The Dome Electrode is an accessory designed for recording of biopotential signals. It is a non-invasive electrode that records biopotential signals from the surface of the skin. It has a standard mating thread that enables connection to electrical conductors of compatible devices. The Dome Electrode contains the following components: 316L Stainless Steel Dome Electrode, Stainless Steel Size 4-40 Nut, Stainless Steel Flat Washer, Stainless Steel Split ("Lock") Washer.

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the information required to compose the answer in the requested format. The document is an FDA 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device (Dome Electrode) and primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

Specifically, the text does not contain details about:

  • Acceptance Criteria Table with Reported Device Performance: No specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy thresholds) are mentioned, nor are quantitative performance results against such criteria for the Dome Electrode itself in terms of signal processing or diagnostic accuracy. The "Result" column in the Non-Clinical Performance Data section only states "Pass" for various internal mechanical and electrical tests.
  • Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance: While "Signal Detection Test" and "Validation – Compatible Device" are listed, the document does not specify the sample size (number of subjects, number of electrode placements, duration of recording) for these tests, nor the origin of the data (country, retrospective/prospective).
  • Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth: There is no mention of experts establishing ground truth for any test set or their qualifications. The device is a cutaneous electrode for EMG, not an AI diagnostic tool requiring expert consensus for interpretation.
  • Adjudication Method: Not applicable as there's no mention of expert review or consensus.
  • Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study: This type of study is relevant for AI systems assisting human readers in interpreting images or data. The Dome Electrode is a physical medical device (electrode) and not an AI algorithm. Therefore, no MRMC study was conducted or reported.
  • Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only): The device is an electrode, not an algorithm. Standalone performance for an algorithm is not applicable.
  • Type of Ground Truth Used: The ground truth for electrode performance would typically be the physical properties of the electrical signals detected. There's no mention of a "ground truth" in the context of expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data, as would be common for AI/diagnostic devices. The internal tests (voltage continuity, signal detection) likely assess the electrode's ability to pick up and transmit electrical signals, with "Pass" indicating it meets specifications.
  • Sample Size for Training Set & How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established: The device is hardware, not a machine learning model. Therefore, there is no "training set" in the context of AI.

The document primarily focuses on:

  • Biocompatibility Testing: Conformance to ISO 10993 standards (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation) with "passing results."
  • Physical and Electrical Performance: Internal tests for mechanical fit, voltage continuity, and signal detection, all reported as "Pass."
  • Comparison to a Predicate Device: Detailed comparison of technological characteristics (dimensions, materials, connection type, indications for use, mechanism of action) to establish substantial equivalence.

Given the nature of the device (a cutaneous electrode) and the content of the 510(k) submission, the study design and reporting requirements are very different from those for an AI/ML-based diagnostic device. The document states, "No human clinical testing was required to support the medical device as it was designed to conform to IEEE 2010-2012 Recommended Practice for Neurofeedback Systems. Cutaneous electrodes have been on the market for many years with proven safety and efficacy." This explicitly indicates that complex clinical studies, particularly those involving human interpretation or AI performance metrics, were not part of this submission for this particular device.

Both the Dome Electrode and listed predicated device are classified as product code: GXY, cutaneous electrodes under 21 CFR 882.1320. Both devices operate in the same manner - the non-invasive transfer of biopotential signals.

Electromyograph and Electroencephalogram operate on the same basic principal of detecting the electrical potentials generated by the body. Both use non-invasive cutaneous electrodes to record these signals. The intended use of the predicate Cup Electrode is for non-invasive use with recording and monitoring equipment, (active and reference), of Electromyography (EMG), Electroencephalograph (EEG) and Evoked Potentials (EP). The intended use of the Dome Electrode is primarily for non-invasive use with recording and monitoring equipment of Electromyography (EMG). The slight difference in the intended use of the subject device compared to the reference device does not raise any concerns of safety or effectiveness. Both the subject device and predicate device can be used to detect EMG signals, but the predicate device has the additional indications for being used for detecting EEG signals and evoked

potentials. The Dome Electrode and predicate Cup Electrode are both recording the electrical potentials passively. Both the Dome Electrode and Cup Electrode are able to detect these biopotential signals because they create an equipotential surface that conduct the electrical potentials.

The use/field of application for the Dome Electrode and predicate slightly differ. Both the Dome Electrode and the predicate record biopotential signals from cutaneous locations, they have just been optimized for different cutaneous locations. The predicate Cup Electrodes, are optimized for use on the scalp. The Dome Electrodes are optimized for use on the surface of the skin. The difference in target location of the referenced device and predicate device do not raise any concerns of safety, as the Dome Electrodes have also been tested to meet the biocompatibility requirements of ISO 10993-5, and ISO 10993-10.

The Dome Electrode and predicate device share similar physical dimensions and shape. Thev both have a diameter between 9 and 10 mm. Both the Dome Electrode and Cup Electrode share a semi-spherical shape for the contacting surface of the electrodes. The only major difference in the physical dimensions of the Dome Electrode and Cup Electrode are the surface area. This difference in surface area is due to the fact that the semi-spherical contact area of the Cup Electrode is a ring shape with a hollow center. The difference in surface area of the contacting surfaces of the Dome Electrode and predicate do not cause any concerns of safety. The Dome Electrode has also passed performance testing demonstrating the ability to detect quality EMG signals from cutaneous locations on a user.

The Dome Electrode contacting surface is made from 316L Stainless Steel. The material of the contacting surface for the predicate Cup Electrode is made from gold or silver. The goal in designing the Dome Electrodes was to create a surface electrode for recording EMG signals that was reusable, biocompatible, and cost effective. The Dome Electrodes underwent performance testing to assess the conductivity of EMG signals. The Dome Electrodes passed all performance testing for EMG signal detection. Additionally, the Dome Electrode was tested for conformance to the biocompatibility specifications of ISO 10993-5 for cytotoxicity, ISO 10993-10 for skin sensitization, and ISO 10993-10 for irritation. Because of the ISO 10993 biocompatibility testing results, and wide spread use of 316L Stainless Steel in the medical industry, the difference in material used does not raise any concerns of safety for the Dome Electrodes. The 316L Stainless Steel was chosen as the material for the Dome Electrode because it fits the intended application of a reusable, biocompatible, lowcost EMG surface electrode.

As with the predicate, the Dome Electrode is designed to operate with a wide range of compatible devices. The Dome Electrode can be connected to compatible devices through a standard sized threaded stud. It is not permanently connected to any electrode leads. The predicate electrodes are permanently adhered to an electrode lead wire and this wire is what is connected to compatible devices. The differences in electrode connection do not raise any concerns of safety or effectiveness of the Dome Electrode, they are simply alternative means of connection to compatible devices. The method of connection of the Dome Electrode does not have an effect on its ability to detect EMG signals.

The Dome Electrode was tested for conformance to the biocompatibility specifications of ISO 10993-5 for cytotoxicity, ISO 10993-10 for skin sensitization, and ISO 10993-10 for

irritation. The Technomed product manual for the predicate Cup Electrodes states that "Technomed electrodes are ISO 10993 Biocompatibility certified." It does not state the exact ISO 10993 tests that the Cup Electrodes have passed, but it can be assumed that it would have undergone the same biocompatibility tests as the Dome Electrodes because it would also be classified as a prolonged (B), skin contact, surface device under ISO 10993-1. Therefore, it would undergo testing for cytotoxicity, skin sensitization, and irritation. The Dome Electrodes underwent biocompatibility testing for these requirements and received passing results.

7. Non-Clinical Performance Data

As part of demonstrating safety and effectiveness of the Dome Electrode and in showing conformance to the recognized consensus standard IEEE 2010-2012 Recommended Practice for Neurofeedback Systems that are subject to this Abbreviated 510(k) submission, Coapt, LLC completed a number of non-clinical performance tests. The Dome Electrode meets all the requirements for overall design, safety, and biocompatibility results, confirming that the design output meets the design inputs and specifications for the device.

The Dome Electrode passed all the testing in accordance with internal requirements, national standards, and international standards shown below to support safety and efficacy of the subject device:

  • IEEE 2010-2012 Recommended Practice for Neurofeedback Systems .
  • . ISO 10993-1: 2009/(R)2013 Biological evaluation of medical devices-Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process

The Dome Electrodes were also tested internally to ensure that it meets device specifications & requirements and operates as intended. The following validation testing was performed on the finished device:

clinical testing detailed in this submission supports substantial safety and efficacy when used for its intended purposes.

9. Statement of Substantial Equivalence to Predicate Device

By definition, a device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device when the device has the same intended use and the same technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate device. Or the device has the same intended use and different technological characteristics that can be demonstrated that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, and that the new device does not raise additional questions regarding its safety and effectiveness as compared to the predicate device(s).

The technological characteristics between the Dome Electrode and predicate are remarkably similar and therefore substantially equivalent. The slight differences between devices do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness as compared to the predicate as the Dome Electrodes have received passing results for biocompatibility testing for cytotoxicity, irritation, and sensitization; and passing results for performance testing of mechanical fit, voltage continuity, signal detection, and validation testing with a compatible device.

The Dome Electrode, as designed and manufactured, is determined to be substantially equivalent to the referenced predicate device.
