Intended Use

The BWIII system may be used for electroencephalography (EEG) and sleep recordings (polysomnography) in research and clinical environments. It acquires displays and archives EEG and PSG data for on-screen review, annotation, and event-marking by the user. The BWIII requires competent user input, and its output must be reviewed and interpreted by a trained physician who will exercise professional judgment in using this information. The BWIII does not make any judgment of normality of the displayed signals or the results of an analysis. In no way are any of the functions represented as being in and of themselves diagnostic.

Device Story

Multi-channel system (up to 50 channels) for EEG and PSG recording; components include amplifier, head box, flash stimulator, and power module. Inputs: patient leads/electrodes and sensors (snore, flow, effort, position). Operation: connects to PC via Ethernet; data acquired, displayed, and archived for user review. Used in sleep labs, hospitals, or clinical settings under physician supervision. Output: raw signal visualization, user-applied annotations, and event-marking. Device performs no automated diagnostic judgment or normality assessment; output requires interpretation by trained physician to inform clinical decision-making. Benefits: facilitates standardized data acquisition and review for neurological and sleep studies.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Safety and effectiveness supported by bench testing and compliance with international standards (IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-2, 60601-2-26, 60601-1-4). Literature cited regarding clinical/electrographic aspects of nonconvulsive status epilepticus provided as general support for EEG/PSG equipment utility.

Technological Characteristics

Hard plastic enclosure; 31-50 channel capacity; 16-bit AD resolution; Ethernet connectivity; 100-240VAC power. Filters: 0.16-10Hz (low), 15-100Hz (high). Flash stimulator 1-30Hz. Standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-26, IEC 60601-1-4, EN ISO 14971, EN ISO 13485.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring electroencephalography (EEG) or polysomnography (PSG) sleep recordings in clinical or research environments. No specific age or gender restrictions. Contraindications not specified.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An electroencephalograph is a device used to measure and record the electrical activity of the patient's brain obtained by placing two or more electrodes on the head.

The BWIII system consists of four major components: the amplifier unit, head box unit, flash stimulator unit and the power module (all plastic made). The system provides connections for electrodes and sensors, and connects to the computer using an ethernet cable. The BWIII works with any good quality patient leads / electrodes and sensors snore, flow, effort belts and position) that have the safety touch connectors and are legally marketed in accordance with FDA requirements. As these accessories are already legally in the market from different manufactures, they are not part of this submission. The BWIII does not make any judgment of normality of the displayed signals or the results of an analysis. In no way are any of the functions represented as being in and of themselves diagnostic. #### I) Intended Used: The BWIII system may be used for electroencephalography (EEG) and sleep recordings (polysomnography) in research and clinical environments. It acquires displays and archives EEG and PSG data for on-screen review, annotation, and event-marking by the user. The BWIII requires competent user input, and its output must be reviewed and interpreted by a trained physician who will exercise professional judgment in using this information. The BWIII does not make any judgment of normality of the displayed signals or the results of an analysis. In no way are any of the functions represented as being in and of themselves diagnostic. {3}------------------------------------------------ K112107 p.4/4 ## J) Safety and Effectiveness: The BWIII is in compliance with the applicable clauses of the following standards: - IEC 60601-1:2005, "Medical Device Equipment: General Requirements for -Safety" - IEC 60601-1-1:2009, Medical electrical equipment Part 1: General requirements for safety - Section 1: Collateral standard: Safety requirements for medical electrical systems - IEC 60601-1-2:2008, "Medical Device Equipment General Requirements for -Safety, Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility, Requirements and Test" - IEC 60601-2-26:2002, "Medical Device Equipment Particular requirements for the safety of electroencephalographs" - .
