Intended Use
The RM3 Renal Preservation System is intended to be used to maintain kidneys for transplant.
Device Description
The RM3 Renal Preservation System is a lightweight, transportable and self-contained renal preservation system, designed to support static monitoring and transportation of kidneys. The RM3 system provides controlled kidney perfusion of hypothermic physiologic solutions, and monitors, displays, trends, and saves important perfusion parameters, including: perfusate flow, temperature, pressure, and renal resistance. The RM3 system control unit can be configured to signal an audio and visual alarm for user-selected limits, and print user-selected data and waveforms. The RM3 Renal Preservation System is a two-part system comprising a control unit for perfusion and monitoring of one or two kidneys, and a sterile, disposable single-use cassette used to contain and circulate perfusate to the kidneys.

No
The description focuses on controlled perfusion, monitoring of physical parameters (flow, temperature, pressure, resistance), and basic alarm/printing functions. There is no mention of AI/ML terms, image processing, or data analysis beyond trending and saving parameters.

No.
The device is used to preserve organs for transplant, not to treat a disease or condition in a living patient.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "Renal Preservation System" intended to maintain kidneys for transplant by perfusing them with solutions and monitoring various parameters. It does not mention diagnosing medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "two-part system comprising a control unit for perfusion and monitoring... and a sterile, disposable single-use cassette". This indicates the device includes significant hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided information, the RM3 Renal Preservation System 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, such as diagnosing a disease or monitoring a condition.
  • RM3 System Function: The RM3 system's intended use is to maintain kidneys for transplant by perfusing them with solutions and monitoring physical parameters (flow, temperature, pressure, resistance). It is acting on the organ itself, not analyzing a specimen taken from a person.

The RM3 system is a medical device, but its function falls under the category of organ preservation and transportation, not in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 876.5880 Isolated kidney perfusion and transport system and accessories.

(a)
Identification. An isolated kidney perfusion and transport system and accessories is a device that is used to support a donated or a cadaver kidney and to maintain the organ in a near-normal physiologic state until it is transplanted into a recipient patient. This generic type of device may include tubing, catheters, connectors, an ice storage or freezing container with or without bag or preservatives, pulsatile or nonpulsatile hypothermic isolated organ perfusion apparatus with or without oxygenator, and disposable perfusion set.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Device Description 4.

The RM3 Renal Preservation System is a lightweight, transportable and self-contained renal preservation system, designed to support static monitoring and transportation of kidneys. The RM3 system provides controlled kidney perfusion of hypothermic physiologic solutions, and monitors, displays, trends, and saves important perfusion parameters, including: perfusate flow, temperature, pressure, and renal resistance. The RM3 system control unit can be configured to signal an audio and visual alarm for user-selected limits, and print user-selected data and waveforms.

The RM3 Renal Preservation System is a two-part system comprising a control unit for perfusion and monitoring of one or two kidneys, and a sterile, disposable single-use cassette used to contain and circulate perfusate to the kidneys.

5. Substantial Equivalence Comparison

The RM3 Renal Preservation System and the predicate RM3 Renal Preservation System are identical in intended use and methodology. The two systems are substantially similar in system components; they share an identical control unit and both utilize a sterile, single-use, disposable cassette. The cassette module for both the subject and predicate devices are substantially similar in design, configuration and materials. Minor material changes to certain components of the organ cassette will improve manufacturability and reduce costs. The material changes have been evaluated through risk analysis and a biomaterial safety assessment following established Design Control procedures. The RM3 Organ Cassette material changes raise no new questions of safety or effectiveness.
