The American Electromedics Quik Tymp 1 (QT1) Tympanometer/Audiometer With Integral Printer is an impedance tympanometer. The American Electromedics Quik Tymp 1 (QT1) Tympanometer with Integral Printer is an impedance tympanometer which has a built-in printer.
I cannot provide the information requested from the text provided because the document is a 510(k) summary and FDA letter regarding substantial equivalence. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria, study details, or performance data for the American Electromedics Quik Tymp 1 (QT1) Tympanometer/Audiometer with Integral Printer. The document focuses on regulatory classification and substantial equivalence to previously marketed devices, rather than a clinical study demonstrating performance against specific criteria.
§ 874.1090 Auditory impedance tester.
(a)
Identification. An auditory impedance tester is a device that is intended to change the air pressure in the external auditory canal and measure and graph the mobility characteristics of the tympanic membrane to evaluate the functional condition of the middle ear. The device is used to determine abnormalities in the mobility of the tympanic membrane due to stiffness, flaccidity, or the presence of fluid in the middle ear cavity. The device is also used to measure the acoustic reflex threshold from contractions of the stapedial muscle, to monitor healing of tympanic membrane grafts or stapedectomies, or to monitor followup treatment for inflammation of the middle ear.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a tympanometer or auditory impedance tester that complies with FDA-recognized consensus standard ANSI S3.39, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 874.9.
