Intended Use
The CareFusion Nicolet EDX is intended for the acquisition, display, 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 including Electroencephalography (EEG). Evoked Potential (EP) includes Visual Evoked Potentials (VEP). Auditory Evoked Potentials (AEP), Somatosensory Evoked Potentials (SEP), Electroretinography (ERG), Electrooculography (EOG), P300, Motor Evoked Potentials (MEP). The Nicolet EDX with Viking 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 Nicolet EDX with Viking 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 Nicolet EDX with Viking Software is intended to be used by a qualified healthcare provider.
Device Story
The CareFusion Nicolet EDX is a diagnostic electromyograph system used to acquire, display, and analyze electrophysiological signals from the nervous and muscular systems. It consists of a console base, Viking control panel, amplifiers (2 or 8-channel), PC, and Viking software. The system uses electrical, auditory, and visual stimulators (LED goggles, photic strobe) to elicit responses, which are recorded via electrodes and processed by the amplifier. The system is operated by qualified healthcare providers in clinical or surgical settings (e.g., OR, ICU). Output is displayed on a monitor for clinical interpretation to support diagnosis of neuromuscular conditions or intra-operative neural structure localization. The device benefits patients by providing objective data on nerve and muscle function, aiding in surgical safety and diagnostic accuracy.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical or animal data were required to demonstrate safety and effectiveness. Substantial equivalence was established through bench testing, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2), and performance testing against the applicable standard for electromyographs and evoked response equipment (IEC 60601-2-40).
Technological Characteristics
System includes console base, Viking control panel, 2/8-channel amplifiers, PC, and Viking software. Features 24-bit A/D conversion, 48kHz sampling rate, >110 dB CMRR, and >1000 MΩ input impedance. Connectivity via USB. Power via mains (100-240 VAC) with isolation transformer. Sterilization not applicable (non-invasive). Software is moderate level of concern.
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualified healthcare providers to acquire, display, analyze, and manage electrophysiological data (NCS, EMG, EP, EEG, autonomic responses) to detect nervous system function, locate neural structures during surgery, and support diagnosis of neuromuscular diseases in adult and pediatric patients.
Regulatory Classification

#### Device Description র্ব.
The CareFusion Nicolet EDX system with Viking Software (Viking EDX) 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 studies (NCS), needle electromyography (EMG) testing, evoked potential (EP) testing, and intra-operative monitoring (IOM). The system can also perform multi-modality recording through Multi-mode programs (MMP). Viking EDX provides a variety of tests spanning the various modalities.

#### Description of Major Components
#### Nicolet EDX Console Base:
The console base is an AC mains powered electrical device that houses the core Nicolet EDX hardware, and provides interconnection capability with the rest of the Nicolet EDX hardware and PC. The PC contains the software.
#### Viking Control Panel:
The control panel along with the mouse is the primary user interface for the Nicolet EDX system. The control panel contains a variety of controls that allow the user to access and use the Nicolet EDX system from the touch of a button or knob.
{2}------------------------------------------------
#### Nicolet Amplifiers (AT2 and AT2 + 6):
The Nicolet amplifiers are DC powered electrical devices that record, amplify and transmit responses from the nerve and/or muscle to the Nicolet EDX console base. The AT2 amplifier collects up to two channels of neurophysiological information and the AT2 + 6 amplifier collects up to 8 channels of neurophysiological information.
## Personal Computer (PC) with Keyboard and Mouse:
The Nicolet EDX system hardware is used in conjunction with a personal computer (PC), which is offered in either a desktop or laptop configuration. The Viking software is supplied preloaded onto the PC.
#### Display Monitor:
The desktop PC version requires a display monitor which is provided with the Nicolet EDX system hardware. The laptop version does not require a separate display monitor beyond the built-in laptop display; however, an external display monitor may be used if desired. The additional display monitor is facilitated through the connection to an isolation transformer that is included with a desktop PC and available as an optional accessory for laptop based systems.
#### Description of Optional Accessory Components
#### HB6 and HB7 Head Boxes:
The HB6 and HB7 Head Boxes are passive devices. They can be connected to the AT2+6 Amplifier via a cable to allow the electrodes' receptacles to be in closer proximity to the patient.
#### Electrical Stimulator Probes:
There are three types of electrical stimulator probes available for use with the Nicolet EDX System Hardware: (1) the WR 50 comfort Plus Probe, (2) the RS 10 Comfort Probe and (3) the S403 Probe. The probes connect to the Nicole EDX console base via a cable. Each probe contains a tip that facilitates direct stimulus contact to the patient when activated. The probes can deliver a stimulus ranging from 0 - 400 V / 0 - 100 mA.
#### SP-1/SP-2 Electrical Stimulus Switching Units:
The SP-1 and SP-2 Stimulus Switching Units allow the user to connect multiple sets of electrodes on the patient for stimulation at different locations.
#### Footswitch and Triple Footswitch:
The footswitches allow the user to activate defined functions such as electrical stimulation and initiate acquisition of trace data. Pressing the footswitch activates or deactivates the user defined function.
#### Patient Response Button:
The patient response button allows the patient to respond to a rare stimulus during specific EP testing. The patient presses the button when the rare stimulus is detected. The Nicolet EDX senses the button press and increments a count.
#### Visual Stimulators:
- (1) LED goggles are available to provide visual stimulation to the patient when the Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) software option is in use.
- (2) A photic strobe is also a visual stimulus option. It can be mounted on an optional stand Similar to the other visual stimulus; it is used with the VEP option. All three visual

stimulators have no controls or indicators and are connected to the Nicolet EDX Console Base Unit. This photic strobe was previously cleared under K921927 and K991054.
## Headphones or other Auditory Transducers:
Headphones are available, or other auditory transducers may be used to provide auditory stimulation to the patient through the transducer when the Auditory Evoked Potential (AEP) is in use. Headphones and transducers have no controls or indicators and are connected to the Nicolet EDX Console Base unit auditory stimulator output connectors.
#### Cart and Printer:
The metal cart provides a convenient way to contain all of the components of the Nicolet EDX System Hardware into one mobile location. The cart has lockable wheels and a convenient handle to facilitate movement of the cart. Two articulating arms are provided for mounting the display monitor and amplifier. There are multiple shelves present to accommodate the placement and storage of various Nicolet EDX System Hardware components and supplies. A retractable keyboard shelf and mouse pad is available. In terms of printing capabilities, a printer equivalent to a DeskJet or Laser printer is available for connection to the system to print reports or screen copies.
