Intended Use
KOSMOS is intended to be used by qualified and trained healthcare professionals in the clinical assessment of the cardiac and pulmonary systems and the abdomen by acquiring, processing, displaying, measuring, and storing synchronized ultrasound images, electrocardiogram (ECG) rhythms, and digital auscultation (DA) sounds and waveforms. With respect to its ultrasound imaging capabilities, KOSMOS is a general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system used in the following clinical applications and modes of operation: - Clinical Applications: Cardiac, Thoracic/Lung, Abdominal, Peripheral Vascular, and Image Guidance for Needle/Catheter Placement - Modes of Operation: B-mode, M-mode, Color Doppler, Combined Modes of B+M and B+CD, and Harmonic Imaging KOSMOS is intended to be used in clinical care and medical education settings on adult and pediatric patient populations. The device is non-invasive, reusable, and intended to be used on one patient at a time.
Device Story
KOSMOS is a handheld diagnostic system comprising a tablet and a cable-connected probe. The probe integrates an ultrasound transducer, microphones for digital auscultation (DA), and a 3-lead single-channel ECG interface. The device acquires synchronized ultrasound images, DA sounds, and ECG waveforms. The tablet displays these inputs, allowing clinicians to perform measurements and store data. Used in clinical care and medical education settings, the device is operated by healthcare professionals. The system supports Wi-Fi for data archival but does not require it for operation. By providing time-synchronized multimodal data, KOSMOS assists clinicians in focused assessments and clinical diagnosis, potentially improving diagnostic efficiency and patient management.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data was required to support the determination of substantial equivalence. Bench testing only.

Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system is a device that combines the features of continuous wave doppler-effect technology with pulsed-echo effect technology and is intended to determine stationary body tissue characteristics, such as depth or location of tissue interfaces or dynamic tissue characteristics such as velocity of blood or tissue motion. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

Dear Ms. Liau:
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/cfpmp/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 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
{1}------------------------------------------------

#### 8. Device Description
KOSMOS consists of a tablet and probe, which connects to the tablet via a cable. Its accessories include a power charger, ECG cable, and binaural headset. KOSMOS can operate on battery or while connected to mains.
The probe face houses an ultrasound transducer and sealed microphones for auscultation. The tablet can display clinical and patient data information including the display of ultrasound images, auscultation and ECG waveforms, and patient data/reports. The
{4}------------------------------------------------
tablet also includes speakers for sounds associated with system control and feedback. Additionally, the tablet offers a means of user control with its touchscreen display and buttons.
Although its intended operation is not dependent on Wi-Fi, KOSMOS supports Wi-Fi connectivity for patient data archival.
The tablet can be positioned on a flat surface close to the patient while the user holds the probe with one hand to scan the patient. The user's other hand is then free to interact with the tablet using its touchscreen and buttons. The user can also hold the tablet in one hand and the probe in the other hand to scan the patient.
KOSMOS' ECG capability provides a timing reference with respect to the cardiac cycle as compared with both ultrasound imaging and digital auscultation. Ultrasound imaging, ECG, and DA are all integrated into the probe in a time-synchronized manner.
KOSMOS' 3-lead single-channel ECG allows for the acquisition and display of a single ECG waveform (lead), which can be any one of the Lead II, or Lead III waveforms. One end of the ECG cable connects to the probe via a custom-designed magnetic connector. The other end has three (3) RA/LA/LL leadwires to be connected to usersupplied clip-style electrodes affixed to the patient using the standard RA/LA/LL configuration.
