Identification
A cranial motion measurement device is a prescription device that utilizes accelerometers to measure the motion or acceleration of the skull. These measurements are not to be used for diagnostic purposes.
Classification Rationale
Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:
Special Controls
In combination with the general controls of the FD&C Act, the Cranial Motion Measurement Device is subject to the following special controls: - 1. The technical parameters of the device, hardware and software, must be fully characterized and include the following information: - a. Hardware specifications must be provided. Additionally, verification and validation testing as well as a hazard analysis must be performed. - b. Software must be described in detail in the Software Requirements Specification (SRS) and Software Design Specification (SDS). Additionally, software verification and validation testing as well as a hazard analysis must be performed. - 2. The patient-contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible. - 3. The device must be designed and tested for electrical, thermal and mechanical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). - 4. Clinical performance testing must demonstrate the accuracy, precision, stability, and repeatability of measuring cranial motion per the intended use in the intended use environment. - 5. The labeling must include: - The intended use population and the intended use environment. a. - b. Any instructions technicians should convey to patients regarding the collection of cranial acceleration data to ensure device measurement accuracy, precision, stability, and repeatability. - c. Information allowing clinicians to understand potential sources of variability in the measurement to help recognize and identify changes in the measurement.
