Intended Use

The ICS Chartr EP 200 System is indicated for auditory evoked potential testing as an aid in detecting hearing loss and lesions in the auditory pathway.

Device Story

ICS Chartr EP 200 is a PC-based system for auditory evoked potential testing; used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals. System components include software modules, isolation transformer, hardware platform, pre-amplifier, mains adapter, stimulation devices, and recording devices. Hardware connects to PC via USB. Device records auditory evoked potentials; processes signals to assist clinicians in identifying hearing loss or auditory pathway lesions. Modification adds Auditory Steady State Response (ASSR) functionality and software-based electrode switching. Output displayed on PC for clinician review; aids in diagnostic decision-making regarding patient auditory function.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Effectiveness is based on the device being an auditory evoked response system of a technology type already available and accepted in the market. Bench testing and compliance with safety standards (EN 60601 series) are cited.

Technological Characteristics

PC-based system; external hardware platform with USB interface. Components: pre-amp, stimulation/recording devices, isolation transformer. Software-based electrode switching. Power: Mains. Safety standards: EN 60601-1, EN 60601-1-1, EN 60601-1-2, EN 60601-1-4, EN 60601-2-26, EN 60601-2-40. OS: Windows XP.

The stimulation and recording devices are connected to the pre-amp, which is connected to the hardware platform, which is connected to the PC via USB cable - no hardware installation inside the PC is required. This submission is for a modification to K083399. The same hardware is used but the software has the additional ASSR (Auditory Steady State Response) feature as implemented on the system described in K031986. #### Intended Use The ICS Chartr EP 200 is indicated for auditory evoked potential testing as an aid in detecting hearing loss and lesions in the auditory pathway.
