And the stethoscope chest piece is designed for use with child, adolescent and adult patients. It is used for any subject undergoing a physical examination and intended only for medical diagnostic purposes in clinic or hospital.
Device Story
Electronic stethoscopes (DS101, Omni-Steth) capture acoustic signals from internal organs via chest piece; signals amplified/filtered by digital signal processor; output to bilateral headset and OLED display. Used by clinicians (physicians, nurses, etc.) in clinics/hospitals for physical exams. Features include three filter modes (Bell 20-200Hz, Diaphragm 100-500Hz, Wide 20-1000Hz), heart rate detection, and phonocardiogram display. Bluetooth connectivity enables raw audio data exchange with external PCs for storage/review via DS101-DM software. Device aids clinical decision-making by providing audible and visual representations of internal sounds. Benefits include improved auscultation efficiency and documentation of patient findings.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing, including electrical safety, EMC, wireless coexistence, biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), and usability testing (15 physicians, 15 nurses). Heart rate detection performance verified against predicates within 30-180 bpm range. Audio performance verified equivalent to predicates for frequencies below 1 kHz and across specified filter modes.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Silicone diaphragm, brass alloy headset. Power: 2x AAA 1.2V batteries. Connectivity: Bluetooth wireless, standalone operation. Form factor: Handheld with 1.46" OLED display. IPX4 water resistance. Standards: ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60529, ANSI C63.27. Software: Moderate level of concern.
Indications for Use
Indicated for child, adolescent, and adult patients undergoing physical examination for medical diagnostic purposes in clinical or hospital settings. Used for detection, amplification, and recording of internal body sounds (heart, lungs, abdomen, etc.).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Manual stethoscope: A mechanical device used to project the sounds associated with the heart, arteries, and veins and other internal organs. Electronic stethoscope: An electrically amplified device used to project the sounds associated with the heart, arteries, and veins and other internal organs.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a lung sound monitor, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.

Dear Dave Yungvirt:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal
{1}------------------------------------------------
statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

## IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The proposed Electronic Stethoscopes Models DS101 and Omni-Steth detect and
{4}------------------------------------------------
display the sounds from the heart, lungs, anterior/posterior chest, abdomen, neck, limbs, arteries, veins and other internal organs from a patient's body. After amplifying and filtering, the sounds are also sent to the user's ears bilaterally through the active speaker embedded at the bottom of the stethoscopes. Sound processing is conducted with the aid of a digital signal processor. Power to the device is provided by two AAA1.2V batteries. The one-hand operable user interface consists of a full-color OLED display, the Record button, arrow keys, the OK button, and a tube connector to output sounds to the headset consisting of tubes and ear tips.
The proposed devices can detect and display an acoustic based heart rate when presented with consistent heart sounds.
In addition, using a Bluetooth wireless link, the proposed stethoscopes can exchange raw audio data with external devices such as personal computers.
Note: The models DS101 and Omni-Steth are standalone devices and do not require Bluetooth data transfer to fulfill their intended use.
The differences between the proposed stethoscope models DS101 and Omni-Steth are cosmetic: specifically, the design of top housing and keyboard layout. The OLED Display information are identical.
