Intended Use

The Epoch XP is intended for use in the operating room and critical care areas for neurological monitoring and assessment. The instrument uses EEG, evoked potentials and EMG techniques to provide health care professionals with information to help assess a patient's neurological status during surgery or long term monitoring in the ICU.

Device Story

Epoch XP Neurological Workstation provides continuous monitoring of brain and neurologic electrical activity in OR and ICU. System inputs include EEG, EMG, and evoked potential signals via recording electrodes; vital signs data from external monitors; and surgeon's microscope video feed. Hardware includes CPU, interface enclosure, data acquisition module, electrical stimulator extension boxes, LED goggles, and insert earphones. Signals are amplified, filtered, optically isolated, and digitized; DSP board processes data and controls stimulator timing. CPU serves as user interface for parameter setting and data display. Healthcare providers use workstation to correlate neurologic function with systemic vital signs. Network compatibility permits data review within hospital and secure Internet access. Benefits include comprehensive neurological monitoring in electrically hostile environments.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on design, development, verification, and validation processes.

Technological Characteristics

Neurological workstation for EEG, EMG, and evoked potential monitoring. Components: CPU, interface enclosure, data acquisition module, stimulator extension boxes, LED goggles, insert earphones. Signal processing: amplification, filtering, optical isolation, A/D conversion, DSP. Connectivity: network compatible, Internet access, external vital signs monitor integration, microscope video input. Class II device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring neurological monitoring and assessment during surgery or long-term monitoring in the ICU. Used by healthcare professionals to assess neurological status via EEG, evoked potentials, and EMG.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

> components include: CPU, interface enclosure, data acquisition module, electrical stimulator extension boxes, LED goggles and insert earphones.

Recording electrodes, placed on the patient, are connected the digital preamplifier (data acquisition module) The signal is amplified, filtered, optically isolated and converted to a digital signal. The digitized data is then routed to the digital signal processing (DSP) board located in the interface enclosure. The DSP processes the data and controls timing for the stimulators. The CPU acts as the user interface for setting parameters and controls and for display of the processed data.

Data from external devices, such as vital signs monitors, can be imported to the Epoch XP display screen, allowing the operator to correlate changes in neurologic function with the patient's systemic vital signs. In addition, a display window may be opened to observe the surgeon's microscope view on screen. The Epoch XP is network compatible for data review within the hospital and permits secure information access over the Internet. Indications for Use: The Epoch XP is intended for use in the operating room and critical care areas for neurological monitoring and assessment. The instrument uses EEG, evoked potentials and EMG techniques to provide health care professionals with information to help assess a patient's neurological status during surgery or long term monitoring in the ICU.

Based on the information provided in this 510(k) and the safety and effectiveness criteria of the design and development process, validated and verified, we claim the Epoch XP (Epoch XP Lite) Neurological Workstation to be safe, effective and substantially equivalent to the predicate device noted.

The Epoch XP is similar in concept and function to the legally marked device, the Enoch 2000 (K971819). a class II device. The additional features incorporated in this product are designed to meet the current and expanding demands of health care professionals for more effective neurological monitoring without compromising safety or effectiveness.
