No
The device description and intended use focus on basic Doppler ultrasound technology for detecting heartbeats and blood flow, with no mention of AI, ML, or advanced processing beyond displaying heart rate and waveform information. The lack of information on training/test sets and performance metrics also indicates the absence of AI/ML.
No
The device is used for detection and diagnostic purposes (detecting fetal heartbeats and blood flow, and assisting in the detection of peripheral vascular disease), not for treating any condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states "Diagnostic ultrasound Imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body as follows: Fetal (Mode of Operation: CWD); Peripheral Vascular (Mode of Operation: CWD)". This indicates its use for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "hand-held, battery powered, audio Doppler device" and includes physical components like probes, buttons, a speaker, headphone jack, and LCD display. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The LifeDop is an in vivo device. It uses ultrasound technology applied directly to the patient's body (on the skin) to detect physiological signals (fetal heartbeats and blood flow). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
The description clearly states it's a hand-held, battery-powered audio Doppler device used for detecting signals within the body.

§ 884.2660 Fetal ultrasonic monitor and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A fetal ultrasonic monitor is a device designed to transmit and receive ultrasonic energy into and from the pregnant woman, usually by means of continuous wave (doppler) echoscopy. The device is used to represent some physiological condition or characteristic in a measured value over a period of time (e.g., perinatal monitoring during labor) or in an immediately perceptible form (e.g., use of the ultrasonic stethoscope). This generic type of device may include the following accessories: signal analysis and display equipment, electronic interfaces for other equipment, patient and equipment supports, and component parts. This generic type of device does not include devices used to image some relatively unchanging physiological structure or interpret a physiological condition, but does include devices which may be set to alarm automatically at a predetermined threshold value.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Trade Name: LifeDop Doppler Ultrasound System Regulation Number: 21 CFR 884.2660 Regulation Name: Fetal ultrasonic monitor and accessories Regulatory Class: II Product Code: 85 KNG and HEP Dated: December 19, 2002 Received: December 20, 2002
Dear Mr. Job:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
This determination of substantial equivalence applies to the following transducers intended for use with the LifeDop Doppler Ultrasound System, as described in your premarket notification:
Transducer Model Number
2.1 MHz CW Fetal Probe 3.2 MHz CW Fetal Probe 4.0 MHz CW Peripheral Vascular Probe 8.0 MHz CW Peripheral Vascular Probe
2
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This determination of substantial equivalence is granted on the condition that prior to shipping the first device, you submit a postclearance special report. This report should contain complete information, including acoustic output measurements based on production line devices, requested in Appendix G, (enclosed) of the Center's September 30, 1997 "Information for Manufacturers Seeking Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers." If the special report is incomplete or contains unacceptable values (e.g., acoustic output greater than approved levels), then the 510(k) clearance may not apply to the production units which as a result may be considered adulterated or misbranded.
The special report should reference the manufacturer's 510(k) number. It should be clearly and prominently marked "ADD-TO-FILE" and should be submitted in duplicate to:
Food and Drug Administration Center for Devices and Radiological Health Document Mail Center (HFZ-401) 9200 Corporate Boulevard Rockville, Maryland 20850
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus permits your device to proceed to market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4591. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers. International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or at (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html".
