Intended Use
MedVizer™ ViTelCare Patient Monitoring System is intended to be used as a tool for an in-home patient that acquires, accumulates, and transmits a continuous self-assessment of physical condition, and other physiological vital signs information to a healthcare practitioner located remotely from the patient. The patient data is transmitted to the MedVizer™ ViTelCare Call Center where a qualified healthcare practitioner can review the patient information and data. The healthcare practitioner can contact the patient directly through a videoconference connection. The communication connectivity between patient and healthcare practitioner is via a standard public telecommunications utility to the Internet. Decisions concerning diagnosis and treatment are to be performed by qualified healthcare professionals.
Device Description
MedVizer™ ViTelCare Patient Monitoring System is a PC based telemedicine system adapted to the collection, management, and communication of patient monitoring data from home and group care environments.

No
The summary describes a telemedicine system for data collection, management, and communication, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for analysis or interpretation of the data.

No.
The device is described as a "patient monitoring system" intended to transmit patient data for review by healthcare practitioners, who then make decisions regarding diagnosis and treatment. It does not directly provide therapy.

No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states, "Decisions concerning diagnosis and treatment are to be performed by qualified healthcare professionals," indicating that the device itself is a tool for monitoring and data transmission, not for making diagnostic decisions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "PC based telemedicine system adapted to the collection, management, and communication of patient monitoring data," implying the use of hardware (PC) beyond just software. While it facilitates data transmission and communication, it is not solely software.

Based on the provided information, the MedVizer™ ViTelCare Patient Monitoring System 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.
  • MedVizer™ ViTelCare Function: The description clearly states that the system acquires, accumulates, and transmits a continuous self-assessment of physical condition and other physiological vital signs information. It also involves videoconferencing for communication.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the system analyzing biological samples. The data collected is related to the patient's physical state and vital signs, not laboratory analysis of bodily fluids or tissues.
  • Focus on Monitoring and Communication: The primary function is remote patient monitoring and communication with a healthcare practitioner.

Therefore, the MedVizer™ ViTelCare Patient Monitoring System falls under the category of a patient monitoring and telemedicine system, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
