Intended Use
Radionics Epidural Peg, Sphenoidal and Foramen Ovale Depth Electrodes are indicated for intraoperative recording of electrical signals for epilepsy monitoring at the surface levels of the brain.
Device Description
The Epidural Peg, Sphenoidal, and Foramen Ovale Depth Electrodes addressed in this PMN have similar intended uses, materials, technological characteristics, sterilization procedures, and packaging as the commercially available Radionics Cortical Surface and Depth Electrodes (K926424). These electrodes are used for intraoperative recording of electrical signals for epilepsy monitoring at the surface and subsurface levels of the brain.
More Information

No
The summary describes electrodes for recording electrical signals, which are passive devices, and there is no mention of AI/ML in the text, including the specific "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field.

No
The device is indicated for intraoperative recording of electrical signals for epilepsy monitoring, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one.

Yes
The device is indicated for "intraoperative recording of electrical signals for epilepsy monitoring," which is a diagnostic activity to assess and understand a patient's electrical brain activity related to epilepsy.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an electrode, which is a hardware component used for recording electrical signals.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "intraoperative recording of electrical signals for epilepsy monitoring at the surface levels of the brain." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) to measure electrical activity directly from the brain.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by stating the electrodes are used for "intraoperative recording of electrical signals for epilepsy monitoring at the surface and subsurface levels of the brain."
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not involve the examination of specimens in vitro.

The device is clearly designed for direct measurement of physiological signals within the patient's body during surgery.

Dear Dr. LaForte:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices: General (GMP) regulation (21 CFR fart 820) and that, through periodic GMP inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
