Intended Use

The Evo sEEG System is intended for temporary (less than 24 hours) use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain.

Device Description

The NeuroOne Evo sEEG System is comprised of the Evo sEEG Electrodes (which includes Anchor Bolt Cap and Stylet) accompanying Cable Assemblies, and the Evo Anchor Bolts. The Evo sEEG System components are provided sterile and are single use only. The Evo sEEG Electrodes are temporarily placed (less than 24 hours) at the subsurface level of the brain. The system is designed to be used in stereoelectroencephalography (sEG) procedures. The sEEG electrodes, by way of the accompanying cable assemblies, are connected to recording, monitoring, or stimulation/response instrumentation currently commercially available for use with other sEEG electrodes, including the predicate device. The sEEG electrodes are a 0.8 mm diameter polyimide electrode with platinum contacts and are available in varying numbers of contacts: 5 to 16 contacts, with an exploration length (recording depth) from 16 to 80 mm. The contact height is 2.0 mm and spacing is 1.5-3.2 mm apart. The Evo Anchor Bolts are available in 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, and 35 mm lengths, can only be used and placed through a small 2.1 mm burr hole drilled in the skull, and should be used only when sEEG depth electrodes are warranted.

AI/ML Overview

The NeuroOne Evo sEEG System, a depth electrode for temporary brain electrical signal recording, monitoring, and stimulation, has been deemed substantially equivalent to its predicate device, the DIXI Medical Microdeep Depth Electrode. This determination is based on a comprehensive set of performance tests.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document doesn't explicitly list specific quantitative acceptance criteria for each test. Instead, for all "Non-Clinical Performance Tests," "Biocompatibility" tests, and a "Simulated Use and Implantation Accuracy Study," the reported performance is a concise "Pass – All samples passed the acceptance criteria" or similar statements like "Pass - Non-cytotoxic," "Pass - Did not elicit a sensitization response," etc. This indicates that predefined criteria were met for each test, but the exact numerical thresholds are not provided in this summary.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

  • Non-Clinical Performance, Biocompatibility, Sterility, Shelf-Life, and Packaging Tests: The document consistently states "All samples passed the acceptance criteria" for these tests, implying multiple samples were tested for each. However, the exact sample sizes for each individual test are not specified.
  • Simulated Use and Implantation Accuracy Study: The sample size is not explicitly stated, but it was a "human cadaver study." The data provenance is implied to be from a controlled laboratory setting (conducted by NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corp.) rather than clinical data from a specific country, and it is a prospective study (testing the device).

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:

  • Non-Clinical Performance, Biocompatibility, Sterility, Shelf-Life, and Packaging Tests: These types of tests typically rely on established scientific and engineering standards and validated methodologies rather than expert consensus for ground truth. The "ground truth" would be the fulfillment of the specified technical criteria within the standards. Therefore, an explicit number of experts and their qualifications for establishing ground truth as one might see in a clinical algorithm study is not applicable here.
  • Simulated Use and Implantation Accuracy Study: The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth for implantation accuracy in the human cadaver study. The comparison was made against the predicate device, implying that accuracy was measured objectively according to predefined metrics.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • For the non-clinical tests, the adjudication method is via comparison to predefined acceptance criteria within established standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM, IEC). This is typically an objective pass/fail assessment rather than a human adjudication process.
  • For the "Simulated Use and Implantation Accuracy Study," the adjudication method is not explicitly stated. The conclusion that "no significant difference" was found implies a statistical comparison of measured implantation accuracy between the subject and predicate devices. No human adjudication process (like 2+1 or 3+1) is mentioned.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was mentioned. The study focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence through technical and performance characteristics, and a simulated use study comparing the subject device to a predicate, not on human reader performance with or without AI assistance. The device itself is an implantable electrode, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study:

This concept is not relevant to the Evo sEEG System, as it is a physical medical device (electrode) and not an algorithm or software-only device. Performance studies were conducted on the device's physical and electrical characteristics.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • Non-Clinical Performance, Biocompatibility, Sterility, Shelf-Life, and Packaging Tests: The ground truth for these tests is based on adherence to established international and national standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM, IEC) and internal specifications. This is objective and measurable data compared against predefined thresholds.
  • Simulated Use and Implantation Accuracy Study: The ground truth for implantation accuracy would be derived from objective measurements taken within the cadaver study, comparing the planned trajectory/placement with the actual placement, likely using imaging modalities.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

The concept of a "training set" is not applicable as this is a physical medical device, not a machine learning algorithm that requires training data.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

This question is not applicable, as there is no training set for this device.

Simulated Use and Implantation Accuracy Study

Results and Conclusions

A human cadaver study was conducted by NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corp. with the purpose of demonstrating the simulated use of the Evo sEEG System, and its implantation accuracy, when implanted according to its Instructions For Use (IFU). The implantation accuracy of the Evo sEEG System was compared to the implantation accuracy of the predicate DIXI Medical Microdeep Depth Electrode (K170959). The results demonstrated no significant difference between the implantation accuracy of the subject and predicate devices and therefore these devices are substantially equivalent when evaluating implantation accuracy.

BASIS FOR DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The Intended Use, Fundamental Scientific Technology, and Principles of Operation for the Evo sEEG System are the same as those described for the predicate device. The Evo sEEG System does not raise new questions regarding safety and effectiveness when compared to the predicate device and has been determined by NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corp. to be substantially equivalent.

In summary, the Evo sEEG System has the following similarities to the predicate device, which has previously received 510(k) clearance:

  • . Has the same device classification
  • Has the same intended use ●
  • Has the similar indications for use
  • Has the same environment of use ●
  • Uses similar technological characteristics
  • . Uses the same principles of operation
  • . Uses the same sterilization methodology
  • Is biocompatible for its intended use

Therefore, the conclusions drawn from the non-clinical tests (biocompatibility) demonstrate the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device, per 21 CFR 807.92(b)(3). The Evo sEEG System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE CONCLUSIONS

Through the thorough comparison of technological and performance characteristics, the subject device is determined to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
