Intended Use
The Nellcor Puritan Bennett Suzanne is intended for use in collecting and recording physiological data to be used in diagnosing sleep disorders. A pediatric through adult patient population is intended for the Suzanne, which can be used in either home or hospital environments.
Device Description
The Suzanne System is composed of a data recorder that contains the electronics and software necessary to capture the physiological information of each sensor and to store this information in a Flash card or to send it to a computer via a serial communication port. The information that can be recorded by the Suzanne System is : - · EEG signals - · ECG signals - · Pressure signals - · Thoracic movements - Abdominal movements - Breath detection (through bucco-nasal thermistor) . - Flow (through pneumotachometer) - Envelope of ambient sound . - Body position . - Ambient light detection . - Arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2) . - Pulse rate . The signals are amplified by different amplifiers contained in elements of the system known as headboxes. When used in a home environment, the data is recorded in the flash card and the clinician uses a setup unit to check that the system works correctly and to set the recording starting time. When used in a clinical environment, the system can be used as described above or data can be recorded to a computer with the use of a PC application software. The system is powered by an internal battery or by a DC power supply.
More Information

No
The summary describes a data recorder for physiological signals and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities for analysis or interpretation.

No.
The device is intended for collecting and recording physiological data for diagnosing sleep disorders, not for treating them.

Yes

The device's Intended Use explicitly states it is "intended for use in collecting and recording physiological data to be used in diagnosing sleep disorders." This directly indicates its diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a data recorder, electronics, sensors, amplifiers (headboxes), a flash card, a serial communication port, an internal battery, and a DC power supply. While software is mentioned as part of the system, it is integrated with and dependent on these physical components.

Based on the provided information, the Nellcor Puritan Bennett Suzanne is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done in vitro (outside the body).
  • Suzanne's Function: The Suzanne system collects and records physiological data directly from the patient's body (EEG, ECG, pressure, movements, breath, flow, sound, position, light, SpO2, pulse rate). This is done in vivo (within the body).
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to collect and record physiological data for diagnosing sleep disorders, which is based on the body's responses and signals, not on testing specimens.

Therefore, the Suzanne device falls under the category of a physiological monitoring device rather than an IVD.

Dear Mr. Matheson:

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. 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.

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.
