No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, nor does it describe functionalities typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices (like image processing or complex data analysis beyond standard signal processing for OAEs).

No
Explanation: The device is an otoacoustic emissions test instrument used for objective assessment of inner ear function (diagnosis/screening), not for treatment.

Yes

Explanation: The device is used for "objective assessment of the inner ear function," which is a diagnostic purpose, specifically for "hearing screening in infants, or for the documentation of occupational hearing loss."

Unknown

The provided text does not contain a device description, which is crucial for determining if the device is software-only or includes hardware components. The intended use describes a "Test Instrument," which could imply hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue that have been taken from the human body. They are used to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device function: The description states the device is an "otoacoustic Emissions Test Instrument" used for "objective assessment of the inner ear function." This involves measuring sounds produced by the inner ear in response to stimuli, which is a physiological measurement taken in vivo (within the living body), not a test performed on a sample in vitro.

Therefore, the AmDiS otoacoustic Emissions Test Instrument falls under the category of a medical device, but not an IVD.

§ 874.1050 Audiometer.

(a)
Identification. An audiometer or automated audiometer is an electroacoustic device that produces controlled levels of test tones and signals intended for use in conducting diagnostic hearing evaluations and assisting in the diagnosis of possible otologic disorders.(b)
Classification. Class II. Except for the otoacoustic emission device, the device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, if it is in compliance with American National Standard Institute S3.6-1996, “Specification for Audiometers,” and subject to the limitations in § 874.9.

K980505 Hortmann AmDIS-OAE Otoacoustic Emissions Analyzer Dated: February 4, 1998 Received: February 9, 1998 Regulatory class: II 21 CFR 874.1050/Procode: 77 EWO

Dear Mr. Melancon:

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 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 (OS) 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. 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 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrb/dsmaldsmamain.html".
