Read the full statement (187 words)

The QP- I60AK Trend program is a software-only device intended to be installed on the EEG-1I200A series electroencephalograph to record, calculate, and display EEG data obtained from the EEG-1 200A system. This device is intended to be used by qualified medical practitioners, trained in Electroencephalography, who will exercise professional judgment when using the information.

The intended use for each of the software's outputs is as follows:

* The EEG and aEEG waveforms are intended to help the user monitor the state of the brain.

* The user-defined Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) parameters of this software (FFT power) are intended to help the user analyze the EEG waveform.

* The burst suppression parameters of this software (interburst interval and bursts per minute) are intended to aid in the identification and characterization of areas of burst-suppression pattern in the EEG.

This device does not provide any diagnostic conclusion about the patient's condition to the user.

The device is intended for use by medical personnel in any location within a medical facility, laboratory, clinic or nursing home or outside of a medical facility under direct supervision of a medical professional.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
