Intended Use
The electroencephalographic system Seer Home is intended to acquire, display, and store the electro-physiological signals of the patient's brain obtained by placing electrodes on the patient scalp. The Seer Home is intended to be used for such studies as electroencephalograph (EEG) and video EEG recording to aid in diagnosis of neurological disorders. The Seer Home does not draw any diagnostic conclusions. Seer Home is not intended for use as life support equipment such as vital signs monitoring in intensive care units. Seer Home is only to be used under the direction and supervision of a physician or EEG technologist or clinician.
Device Story
Ambulatory EEG system for home use (up to one week). Input: EEG signals via 22 scalp electrodes (10-20 system) and ECG signals via 3 chest electrodes. Wearable 'Seer Sense' device records and wirelessly transmits data to 'Seer Sight Video Monitoring Hub'. Hub records synchronized video and stores data. Post-study, data downloaded to Seer Cloud Platform for review, annotation, and reporting by clinicians. Device aids diagnosis of neurological disorders by providing EEG/ECG/video data; does not provide automated diagnostic conclusions. Benefits include long-term ambulatory monitoring outside clinical settings.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical testing performed. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing (electrical safety, EMC, biocompatibility, software verification/validation, and usability evaluation) and clinical literature review confirming safety and efficacy of ambulatory EEG devices.
Technological Characteristics
Ambulatory EEG system. Materials: Biocompatible per ISO 10993-1/5/10. Sensing: 22 EEG channels, 2 ECG channels. Connectivity: Wireless transmission to hub, Ethernet to cloud platform. Power: Mains (100-240 VAC) or internal battery. Standards: IEC 60601-1 (safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC), IEC 60601-1-11 (home use), IEC 60601-2-26 (EEG), IEC 60601-2-25 (ECG). Software: Moderate level of concern, compliant with IEC 62304.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring monitoring of physiological signals to assist in the diagnosis of neurological disorders. For use by neurological and other related healthcare professionals in home or hospital/clinic environments. Not for use in intensive care or life support situations.
Regulatory Classification

### Device Description:
The Seer Medical - Seer Home is an ambulatory electroencephalograph system designed to be used at the patient's home for up to week-long studies. The ambulatory EEG recorder (called "Seer Sense" or "Wearable") is worn around the patient shoulders. The Wearable has a single cable exiting from the bottom of the device and is routed inline to 3 disposable ECG electrodes which are positioned on the chest for ECG recording. Exiting from the rear of the Wearable is single flexible cable which has a junction at the top of the patient's head connected to the 22 EEG electrodes (disposable) which are positioned in the international '10-20' system for EEG recording.

The Wearable records the EEG and ECG signals and wirelessly transmits them to a nearby "Seer Sight Video Monitoring Hub" in the patient's house. The Video Monitoring Hub has two roles, first to store the wireless data from the wearable, and the second is to record video from an in-built camera that is synchronized to the EEG/ECG data. The use of the recorded video data provides additional information to the physician (such as body movement artifacts) to assist in diagnosis in the neurological conditions.
At the end of the study period (up to a week) the Wearable and Hub are returned back to the clinic for data download. The Seer Cloud Platform software downloads the data, stores the data, displays the EEG/ECG signals and video for reviewers to interpret, make annotations, and produce reports.
The Seer Home is intended to be used by qualified operators or physicians trained in the interpretation of EEG/ECG signals and visual cues of patient movements - and is viewed as a part of a range of assessments used by Neurologists to assist in making diagnosis of neurological conditions.
The accessories used with the Seer Home are disposable EEG electrodes, disposable ECG electrodes, Transport/Carry case, Medical Grade Power Adapter, IFU, and Rechargeable Batteries.
#### Indications for Use:
The electroencephalographic system Seer Home is intended to acquire, display, and store the electro-physiological signals of the patient's brain obtained by placing electrodes on the patient scalp.
The Seer Home is intended to be used for such studies as electroencephalograph (EEG) and video EEG recording to aid in diagnosis of neurological disorders. The Seer Home does not draw any diagnostic conclusions.
Seer Home is not intended for use as life support equipment such as vital signs monitoring in intensive care units.
Seer Home is only to be used under the direction and supervision of a physician or EEG technologist or clinician.
#### Technological Characteristics:
The Seer Home is an ambulatory electroencephalograph system and has similar indication for use statement as the predicate device. The Seer Home also has similar technological characteristic as the predicate device.
Listed on Table 1. Is a summarized version of the technological comparison between the Seer Home and predicate device. The table has same format and data as the predicate device K170441 510(k) Summary, with the addition of a comparison column.

#### Non-Clinical Performance Data:
The device development and verification have been carried out in accordance with FDA requlations for electroencephalographs 21 CFR 882.1400. The device was tested against recommended consensus standards for EEG's and applicable voluntary consensus standards.
Electrical Safety and EMC testing were performed, the system complies with the Medical Electrical Safety Standard IEC 60601-1, and the relevant device specific Part 2 standards IEC 60601-2-25 (ECG) and IEC 60601-2-26 (EEG). EMC Testing was also performed to the IEC 60601-1-2 standard for Electromagnetic Compatibility.
The biocompatibility evaluation for the Seer Home was conducted in accordance with the ISO 10993-1 standard for Biocompatibility, and applicable materials were tested to ISO 10993-5 for Cytotoxicity, and ISO 10993-10 for Sensitization & Irritation.
Software verification and validation testing were performed and documentation following the FDA "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "Moderate" level of concern, since a failure or latent flaw could indirectly result in minor injury to the patient or operator through incorrect or delayed information or through the action of a care provider. The software documentation is compliant with IEC 62304.
The usability evaluation for Seer Home was conducted in accordance with the FDA quidance document "Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices" February 3, 2016, and IEC 62366-1:2015 as recognized by FDA.
Device specific verification tests include package Drop testing to ASTM D5276, Input Impedance tests, Filter verifications, Home Use compliance to IEC 60601-1-11, and other verification tests not directly covered by the IEC 60601-1 such as event triggers, battery monitoring, audio and visual feedback tests.
The electrical, software, biocompatibility, and device testing results support that all specifications have met the acceptance criteria. The Seer Home has passed all the required testing. The tests support the claims of substantial equivalence and safe operation.
