The Bio-logic Evoked Potential (EP) product family is indicated for use in the recording and analysis of human physiological data necessary for the diagnosis of auditory and hearing-related disorders.

This product, the ABaer Cub, like it’s predicate device, the ABaer, is especially indicated for use in the screening of infants to determine hearing loss.

The Bio-logic EP System can be used for patients of all ages, from children to adults, including infants and geriatric patients. It is especially indicated for use in testing individuals for whom behavioral audiometric results are deemed unreliable, such as infants, young children, and cognitively impaired or uncooperative adults. The use of the Bio-logic EP family of products is to be performed under the prescription and supervision of a physician or other trained health care professional.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
