The description focuses on standard audiometric tests and hardware components (circuit board, PC interface, keyboard, LCD) without mentioning any AI/ML capabilities.
No
The device is a diagnostic audiometer used for measurement and diagnosis of hearing losses, not for therapy or treatment.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is a "two channel clinical diagnostic audiometer" and is intended for "measurement and diagnosis of various types of hearing losses." The "Device Description" also refers to it as a "clinical diagnostic audiometer" and lists various diagnostic audiometric tests it can perform.
No
The device description explicitly states it uses an "internal circuit board" and comes in two models, one using a personal computer as an interface and the other with a "dedicated front panel keyboard with an LCD display." These are hardware components, indicating it is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body. The Amplaid A311 Series is an audiometer, which is a device used to measure hearing ability by presenting sounds to the patient and recording their responses. It does not involve the analysis of biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The intended use is for measuring and diagnosing hearing loss. This is a physiological measurement and assessment, not an in vitro analysis of a biological specimen.
Therefore, the Amplaid A311 Series falls under the category of a diagnostic medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Amplaid A311 Series is a clinical diagnostic audiometer which can perform all audiometric tests normally performed in a clinical situation. It is intended for use by a qualified/trained audiologist on both adult and pediatric subjects for measurement and diagnosis of various types of hearing losses.

Device Description
The Amplaid A311 Series is a two channel clinical diagnostic audiometer which can perform all audiometric tests normally performed in a clinical situation. It provides testing capability for basic evaluation, cochlear versus retrocochlear dysfunction, central dysfunction and non-organic hearing loss. Other diagnostic audiometric tests are: pure tone, speech, Multifrequency, S.I.S.I., A.B.L.B. (Fowler), D.L.I. (Lüscher), M.L.B., and Tone Decay. The A311 Series comes in two models, both using the same internal circuit board: The AM11 which uses a personal computer as the user interface (communicates via RS232), and the A311, with uses a dedicated front panel keyboard with an LCD display.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Kamm:
We have reviewed vour 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 legally marketed predicate 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 requlatory 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.
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.
