Intended Use
The Synthes (USA) Compartmental Pressure Monitoring System is intended for the immediate or continuous measurement of intracompartmental pressures.
Device Description
The Synthes (USA) Compartmental Pressure Monitoring System consists of a hand-held monitoring device, a re-sterilizable pressure measurement probe, and an optional extension cable. The hand-held monitoring device houses the operational software and the LCD display. The pressure measurement probe connects directly to the hand-held unit or can be attached using the optional extension cable. A 9-volt battery powers the monitor. The probe is inserted into the target compartment via a 14-gauge catheter supplied by the user.

No
The description focuses on hardware components and basic software for pressure measurement and display, with no mention of AI or ML terms or functionalities.

No
The device is intended for the measurement of intracompartmental pressures, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. It provides information but does not treat or alleviate a medical condition.

Yes
The device is described as a "Compartmental Pressure Monitoring System" intended for "immediate or continuous measurement of intracompartmental pressures," which is a diagnostic function to assess a patient's condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a hand-held monitoring device, a pressure measurement probe, and an optional extension cable, all of which are hardware components. The software is housed within the hand-held device, but the system is not solely software.

Based on the provided information, the Synthes (USA) Compartmental Pressure Monitoring System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological state, state of health, or disease or congenital abnormality.
  • Device Function: The Synthes system directly measures pressure within a compartment of the body (intracompartmental pressure). It does not analyze specimens outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is the measurement of intracompartmental pressures, which is a direct physiological measurement, not an analysis of a bodily fluid or tissue sample.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a non-IVD medical device.

Trade/Device Name: Synthes (USA) Compartmental Pressure Monitoring System Regulatory Class: Unclassified Product Code: LXC Dated: May 15, 2003 Received: May 19, 2003

Dear Ms. Boyle:

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.

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.
