No
The description focuses on established physiological measurement methods (Finapres, Modelflow) and data processing/storage, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms.
No
The device is a noninvasive hemodynamic monitor that provides numerical values for characterizing the arterial circulation. It explicitly states that it does not report any diagnosis and that the physiological parameters only have clinical significance if determined by a physician, indicating it is for monitoring and measurement, not treatment or therapy.
No
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The device does not report any diagnosis but provides numerical values." It further clarifies that "It is the physician's responsibility to make proper judgments based on these numbers" and "The physiological parameters provided by the device have clinical significance only if determined by a physician and should not be used as the sole means for a patient's diagnosis." This indicates that the device is for monitoring and providing data, not for making a diagnosis itself.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components including a Main Control Unit with electronics, solid-state disk, air pumps, a Frontend Unit, finger cuffs, and an arm cuff. While it includes PC-based software (BeatScope), the core functionality relies on dedicated hardware.
Based on the provided information, the Finometer is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Finometer's Function: The Finometer measures physiological parameters directly from the patient's body (finger and arm) using non-invasive methods (Finapres and Modelflow). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "noninvasive hemodynamic monitor" that provides "noninvasive characterization of the arterial circulation." It measures blood pressure and derived hemodynamic parameters in vivo.
- No Specimen Analysis: The device description details the hardware and how it interacts with the patient's body (finger cuffs, arm cuff, air circuits), but there is no mention of collecting or analyzing biological specimens.
Therefore, the Finometer falls under the category of a non-invasive physiological monitoring device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Finometer is intended to be used when there is a need for a noninvasive hemodynamic monitor. The Finometer provides a noninvasive characterization of the arterial circulation and its beat-to-beat variability in pressure and flow as well as in various hemodynamic parameters derived from these pressure and flow signals. The device does not report any diagnosis but provides numerical values. It is the physician's responsibility to make proper judgments based on these numbers.
The noninvasively blood pressure waveform is measured by using the Finapres method of Peñáz/Wesseling. Hemodynamic parameters include cardiac output and total peripheral resistance based on the Modelflow method of Wesseling.
The Finometer is intended to be installed and operated by a qualified physician or operator. Pressure measurements are validated for subjects above 18 years of age. The only mode of measuring blood pressure accurately is when the device is used with the return-to-flow method of calibration, if the pressure data are to comply with the recommendations of the AAMI SP10 standard.
Modelflow built-in calibration is useful from 18 years on. Cardiac output measured with this device under the Modelflow model requires a calibration with thermal dilution.
The physiological parameters provided by the device have clinical significance only if determined by a physician and should not be used as the sole means for a patient's diagnosis.
The data provided by the device can be further processed by the included PC-based BeatScope software.

Device Description
The Finometer Noninvasive Hemodynamic Monitor is a stationary device to record continuous noninvasive arterial blood pressure as well as additional hemodynamic parameters.
The Finometer is a stationary device. It consists of the Main Control Unit with electronics and a solidstate disk for storage. The Main Control Unit also contains the two pressurized air circuits, including air pumps, for the measurements using the Finapres methodology and for the RTF calibration methodology. A Frontend Unit is used to provide an interface for the electronic signals from the Main Control Unit electronics and air supply to the forger cuffs, an arm cuff, and an analog input/output unit. The Frontend Unit connects the Main Control Unit to the forger cuff, which in turn consists of an inflatable air bladder and an infrared photoplethysmograph
The Main Control Unit microprocessor has an internal solid-state disk storing up to 24 hours of continuous blood pressure and derived hemodynamic data. The Main Control Unit is equipped with an RS232 serial interface to transfer the data stored in the Finometer disk to a PC and to allow remote control of the Finometer.
The analog input/output unit provides four analog signal outputs for connection to other data acquisition systems, and provides three analog signal inputs for sampling and storing of external signals simultaneously with the Finometer data. An external (intra-arterial) blood pressure signal can be used to replace the finger blood pressure. The Finometer then will use the external pressure signal to derive all parameters.
BeatScope PC-software is also delivered with the Finometer to enable downloading, viewing, and further handling of Finometer data. BeatScope provides the capability of on-line monitoring, storage, and limited control of a Finometer measurement on a remote PC.
