Intended Use

The Galaxy is a physiological data recorder intended to collect and record data from multiple physiological channels. It is intended for use by or on the order of a physician. The Galaxy is intended for use in a supervised (hospital) or unsupervised (home) environment.

Device Story

Galaxy is a wearable physiological data recorder; collects signals including EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG, nasal/oral airflow, snore, thoracic/abdominal effort, body position, and pulse oximetry (SpO2, pulse rate, plethysmograph). Device stores data on removable SD card; no onboard data management or analysis. Used in hospital or home settings; operated by clinicians or patients. Data transferred to PC for analysis via cleared host software. Provides raw data storage to assist clinicians in sleep disorder studies; does not provide real-time alarms or automated apnea monitoring.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification testing confirmed device functionality met acceptance criteria. Safety verified via IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 testing. Risk Traceability Matrix used to mitigate identified hazards.

Technological Characteristics

Wearable, battery-powered data recorder. Stores data on removable SD card. Inputs: EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG, respiratory effort, airflow, snore, body position, pulse oximetry. 20-channel capacity. No onboard analysis, alarms, or calibration checks. Safety standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2.

Indications for Use

Indicated for collection and recording of physiological data from multiple channels in pediatric through adult populations. Used in supervised hospital or unsupervised home environments under physician order. Not for life-supporting equipment or automated apnea monitoring.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A breathing (ventilatory) frequency monitor is a device intended to measure or monitor a patient's respiratory rate. The device may provide an audible or visible alarm when the respiratory rate, averaged over time, is outside operator settable alarm limits. This device does not include the apnea monitor classified in § 868.2377.

Galaxy data recorder is substantially equivalent to the EB Neuro, S.p.A. Sandman Pocket (K061996). The functionality of the design of the device was verified through verification testing. All tests met the required acceptance criteria. The safety of the design was assured by the completion of IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 testing. The Risk Traceability Matrix provided in the Risk Assessment assured that all hazards identified by the risk assessment are successfully mitigated. ## Intended Use The Galaxy is a physiological data recorder intended to collect and record data from multiple physiological channels. It is intended for use by or on the order of a physician. The Galaxy is intended for use in a supervised (hospital) or unsupervised (home) environment. ## Device Description The Galaxy is a wearable data recorder that collects and stores physiological signals. The role of the Galaxy is only to record the data. The following physiological signals may be collected and stored by the Galaxy device: - 트 EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG - 트 Nasal/oral Airflow - l Snore - I Thoracic and Abdominal Effort - 회 Body Position - B Pulse Oximetry, including: - Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) o - Pulse Rate o - Plethysmograph o The recorded data is stored on a secure digital (SD) card and may be passed on to a PC for analysis and reporting of the data by a cleared host software application. The Galaxy data recorder is not in any way involved in the data management performed by the host. {2}------------------------------------------------ Galaxy page 3 of 4 # Technological Characteristics / Predicate Device Comparison Like the Sandman Pocket predicate device, the Galaxy is intended to collect physiological signals from various points on the patient's body and to record those signals.
