The UltraPro is intended for the acquisition, display, analysis, storage, reporting, and management of electrophysiological information from the human nervous and muscular systems including Nerve Conduction (NCS), Electromyography (EMG), Evoked Potentials (EP), Autonomic Responses and Intra-Operative Monitoring including Electroencephalography (EEG).

Evoked Potentials (EP) includes Visual Evoked Potentials (VEP), Auditory Evoked Potentials (AEP), Somatosensory Evoked Potentials (SEP), Electroretinography (ERG), Electrooculography (EOG), P300. Motor Evoked Potentials (MEP) and Contingent Negative Variation (CNV). The UltraPro with Natus Elite Software may be used to determine autonomic responses to physiologic stimuli by measuring the change in electrical resistance between two electrodes (Galvanic Skin Response and Sympathetic Skin Response). Autonomic testing also includes assessment of RR Interval variability. The UltraPro with Natus Elite Software is used to detect the physiologic function of the nervous system, for the location of neural structures during surgery, and to support the diagnosis of neuromuscular disease or condition.

The listed modalities do include overlap in functionality. In general, Nerve Conduction Studies measure the electrical responses of the nerve; Electromyography measures the electrical activity of the muscle and Evoked Potentials measure electrical activity from the Central Nervous System.

The UltraPro with Natus Elite Software is intended to be used by a qualified healthcare provider.

The UltraPro S100 system is designed for the acquisition, display, analysis, reporting, and management of electrophysiological information from the human nervous and muscular systems. The system is designed to perform Nerve Conduction (NCS). Electromyography (EMG), Evoked Potentials (EP), and Autonomic Responses. UltraPro S100 system provides a variety of tests spanning the various modalities.

The UltraPro S100 system consists of the following major components:

• Main unit (also known as base unit or main base unit) with integrated control panel; ●
• Amplifier (3- or 4-channel);
• . Computer- laptop or desktop (with keyboard and mouse)
• Display Monitor (for desktop system)
• . Application Software (Natus Elite)

The UltraPro S100 has the following optional accessories/ components:

• Audio stimulators (Headphones or other auditory transducers)
• Visual stimulators (LED goggles or stimulus monitor)
• . Electrical stimulators (RS10 probes, stimulus probe with controls)
• Cart and associated accessories when using cart such as isolation transformer
• Miscellaneous accessories such as Patient Response button, Triple footswitch, Reflex hammer, temperature probe and adapter, ultrasound device, printer, etc.

The electrodiagnostics system is powered by a connection to mains.

The entire user interface of UltraPro S100 system consists of two major elements:

• The primary means to interact with the system is via a personal computer (PC) running ● Natus Elite.
• The second means of interaction is the user interface elements on the hardware.

The UltraPro S100 is intended to be used by a qualified healthcare provider. This device does not provide any diagnostic conclusion about the patient's condition to the user. The intended use environment is in a professional healthcare facility environment.

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for the Natus Ultrapro S100 device. While it describes the device's indications for use and compares its technological characteristics to predicate devices, it does not contain information about the acceptance criteria or the specific study that proves the device meets those criteria, such as a clinical performance study with defined metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device primarily through technical specifications and intended use.

Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes used for test/training sets, data provenance, number or qualifications of experts, adjudication methods, or details about MRMC or standalone studies based on the provided text. The document is primarily a comparison of features and intended use.

The "Conclusion" section on page 14 states: "Verification and validation activities were conducted to establish the performance and safety characteristics of the UltraPro S100. The results of these activities demonstrate that the UltraPro S100 is safe, effective, and performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices." However, it does not elaborate on what these activities entailed or the specific criteria and results.
