No
The description focuses on the physical design and function of an EEG sensor for signal acquisition, with no mention of AI or ML for signal processing or interpretation.
No
The device is described as an EEG sensor used to record electrophysiological signals, not to deliver therapy. Its purpose is diagnostic, measuring signals from the patient's skin, rather than treating a condition.
No
The device is an EEG sensor that records electrophysiological signals. While these signals can be used for diagnosis when interpreted by a clinician, the sensor itself is a data acquisition tool, not a diagnostic device that interprets or diagnoses.
No
The device description explicitly details a physical sensor (electrode array) that is applied to the patient's skin to record signals. It also mentions hardware testing.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that the EEG Sensor is applied directly to the patient's skin to record electrophysiological signals. It does not analyze blood, urine, tissue, or any other bodily fluid or substance.
- The device measures electrical signals from the body. It is a sensor designed to pick up electrical activity (EEG) from the brain through the skin. This is a direct measurement of a physiological process, not an analysis of a biological specimen.
Therefore, the EEG Sensor described is a medical device used for physiological monitoring, not an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description
The Aspect Medical Systems, Inc. EEG Sensor (hereafter referred to as the Aspect Sensor, Aspect EEG Sensor, or BIS Sensor +), is a rectangular shaped, pre-gelled array of three (3) Zipprep ® electrodes that is applied to the patient's skin to record electrophysiological (such as EEG) signals.
It is a low impedance, single patient use, disposable electrode sensor that is designed for application to the frontal/temporal area. The Aspect Sensor is designed to provide ease of use and electrode placement accuracy. It is used in conjunction with Aspect monitors.
The main body of the Aspect Sensor, which houses two (2) electrodes, is placed on the forehead. The satellite area, which houses one (1) electrode, is placed over the temple area. The Aspect Sensor collects EEG signals from these areas, and the differential signal from the temple to the center of the forehead is used to calculate the BIS. The area and distance between electrodes was chosen for ease of application, and to obtain maximum amplitude of the EEG signal, with a minimum of artifact.
The "Zipprep" patented electrode design is constructed using flexible tines mounted on a polyethylene basepad with an adhesive. The flexible tines, surrounded by hydrogel, are used to part the outermost layer of skin. While the flexible tines part the skin, hydrogel flows around the tines and forms a conductive bridge with the skin.
The Aspect Sensor connects to a monitor at a single point (tab) that is low profile and easy to insert and remove. The tab has an electronic smart card memory device that contains configuration and identification information. This allows better tracking/traceability of the product for Aspect, as well as communicating product information to the user.
All materials are biocompatible, and have been tested in accordance with ISO 10993. Skin contacting materials are the same as the Predicate Device.

Description
The Aspect Medical Systems, Inc. EEG Sensor (hereafter referred to as the Aspect Sensor, Aspect EEG Sensor, or BIS Sensor +), is a rectangular shaped, pre-gelled array of three (3) Zipprep ® electrodes that is applied to the patient's skin to record electrophysiological (such as EEG) signals.

The "Zipprep" patented electrode design is constructed using flexible tines mounted on a polyethylene basepad with an adhesive. The flexible tines, surrounded by hydrogel, are used to part the outermost layer of skin. While the flexible tines part the skin, hydrogel flows around the tines and forms a conductive bridge with the skin.
The Aspect Sensor connects to a monitor at a single point (tab) that is low profile and easy to insert and remove. The tab has an electronic smart card memory device that contains configuration and identification information. This allows better tracking/traceability of the product for Aspect, as well as communicating product information to the user.
All materials are biocompatible, and have been tested in accordance with ISO 10993. Skin contacting materials are the same as the Predicate Device.
Indications for Use
The Aspect Sensor is applied directly to the patient's skin to enable recording of electrophysiological (such as EEG) signals.
Summary of Technological Characteristics
The Aspect Sensor has the same technological characteristics with regard to Zipprep design, some configuration capability, and materials. However, the smart card memory device, with its expanded configuration capabilities, could be considered a minor technological difference, in that with the addition of the smart card memory device, configuration capabilities are expanded further. The smart card memory device contains information concerning the lot number, date of manufacture and expiration date.
Summary of Testing
Aspect Medical Systems has conducted electrical and mechanical testing on the Sensor. In addition, software and hardware testing (including EMI testing) were conducted on the components of the system affected by the inclusion of the smart card memory device.
All tests passed in accordance with their specification.
