The description focuses on data transfer and printing, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.
No
The device is described as a printer interface used to download and print ECG data. It does not exert any therapeutic effect on the patient.
No
The device is described as a printer interface that downloads and prints ECG data from an ECG monitor; it does not perform any diagnostic function itself.
No
The device description explicitly states it receives data and transmits it through a "parallel cable" to a printer, indicating a hardware component (the cable and interface) is part of the device.
Based on the provided information, the Micromedical Printer Interface is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The Micromedical Printer Interface's intended use is to download and print ECG data. ECG data is a recording of the electrical activity of the heart, which is obtained through electrodes placed on the body (in vivo), not from a sample taken from the body (in vitro).
- Lack of In Vitro Activity: The device description clearly states it receives data from an ECG monitor and transmits it to a printer. There is no mention of analyzing or testing biological samples.
Therefore, the Micromedical Printer Interface is a device that processes and outputs data from an in vivo diagnostic procedure (ECG), but it is not an in vitro diagnostic device itself.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Micromedical Printer Interface is used to download ECG data from a Micromedical ECG monitor and print ECG recordings on standard letter-sized paper by using one of a number of standard commercially available Canon or Hewlett Packard ink jet printers.

§ 870.2920 Telephone electrocardiograph transmitter and receiver.
(a)
Identification. A telephone electrocardiograph transmitter and receiver is a device used to condition an electrocardiograph signal so that it can be transmitted via a telephone line to another location. This device also includes a receiver that reconditions the received signal into its original format so that it can be displayed. The device includes devices used to transmit and receive pacemaker signals.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

510(k) SUMMARY
The Micromedical Printer Interface receives data from a Micromedical ECG monitor and transmits it through a parallel cable to one of a number of commonly available Canon or H-P bubble jet printers to print the ECG tracing on standard-sized paper.
The Printer Interface is substantially equivalent to the Ralin CorFax, which receives ECG data from a Ralin ECG monitor and transmits it through telephone lines for printing on a Group III compatible facsimile machine.
Both devices use proprietary algorithms to receive the data from ECG monitors and transmit it to a printing device.

Re: K970305 Printer Interface Regulatory Class: II (two) Product Code: 74 DXH Dated: May 20, 1997 Received: May 28, 1997
Dear Mr. Castle:
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 current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. Tn addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect anv 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.
