Intended Use
These devices are intended to be used as replacement accessories to Corometrics and Hewlett Packard Monitors, to measure fetal heart rate and uterine contractions in the gravid patient. AIV Transducer Model Numbers: FM10835 and FM10836. These devices are a direct replacement for the EPIC EFU200-20, Ultrasound Transducer for measuring fetal heart rate. AIV Transducer Model Numbers: FM10839 and FM10840. These devices are a direct replacement for the Corometric's 2264LAX. TOCO Transducer for measuring uterine contractions. AIV Transducer Model Number: FM10841. This device is a direct replacement for the EPIC EFT200-20, TOCO Transducer for measuring uterine contractions.
Device Description
AIV's ultrasound (US) and tocodynamometer (TOCO) transducers are replacements for similar transducers manufactured by Corometrics and Hewlett Packard for their respective monitors. The AIV transducers are also a replacement for similar transducers manufactured by Epic for use on Corometrics and Hewlett Packard monitors. The US transducers are used to detect the fetal heart rate using Doppler shift technology. The TOCO transducers detect uterine activity using a strain gauge for evaluating contractions. These transducers are intended to be a direct replacement for the Corometrics, Hewlett Packard and Epic transducers.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on direct replacement functionality and equivalence to predicate devices using established technologies (Doppler shift and strain gauge). There is no mention of AI/ML in the text.

No
The device is used to measure fetal heart rate and uterine contractions, which are diagnostic measurements, not therapeutic treatments.

Yes

These devices measure fetal heart rate and uterine contractions, which are physiological parameters used to assess the health of the fetus and the progress of labor. While they don't provide a direct diagnosis, the data they collect is diagnostic information used by healthcare professionals for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states that the devices are ultrasound and tocodynamometer transducers, which are hardware components used to measure physiological signals. The summary also details bench testing and acoustic output testing, which are relevant to hardware performance.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that these transducers are placed on the maternal abdomen to measure fetal heart rate and uterine contractions. They are not used to analyze blood, urine, tissue, or any other bodily fluid or sample.
  • The technology used is external measurement. The ultrasound transducer uses Doppler shift technology to detect the fetal heart rate through the skin, and the TOCO transducer uses a strain gauge to detect uterine activity externally. These are physical measurements taken from outside the body, not analyses of internal biological samples.

Therefore, these devices fall under the category of medical devices used for external monitoring, not in vitro diagnostics.

Trade/Device Name: Transducers for Ultrasound and Tocodynamometer Fetal Monitoring Regulation Number: 21 CFR 884.2720 Regulation Name: External uterine contraction monitor and accessories Regulation Number: 21 CFR 884.2960 Regulation Name: Obstetric ultrasonic transducer and accessories Product Code: 85 HFM and HGL Dated: July 8, 2004 Received: July 12, 2004

Dear Mr. Falk:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of September 14, 2004 regarding the transducers for ultrasound and tocodynamometer fetal monitoring. The letter listed only the ultrasound transducers (FM10835, FM10836) to which the determination of substantial equivalence applies. However, the determination of substantial equivalence applies to all five transducers described in your premarket notification, i.e. FM10835, FM 10839, FM 10840, and FM 10841.

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 (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 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.

1

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. 1

This letter will allow you to continue marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) 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 the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of the letter:

8xx.1xxx(301) 594-4591
876.2xxx, 3xxx, 4xxx, 5xxx(301) 594-4616

892.2xxx, 3xxx, 4xxx, 5xxx(301) 594-4654
Other(301) 594-4692

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) you may obtain. 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 (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html.
