The device description focuses on simple sensing elements and the analysis is performed by a trained technician, with no mention of AI or ML in the text.
No.
The device is used to record physiological parameters for diagnostic purposes, not to provide therapy or treatment.
No
Explanation: The device provides qualitative measurements of physiological parameters for recording onto a data acquisition system. These signals are then analyzed by a trained technician, along with other data (like EKG or EEG), to arrive at a diagnosis. The device itself does not perform the diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly details physical sensors (piezo-crystals, thermocouples, gravity switches) packaged in enclosures and connected via cables, indicating it includes hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- SleepSense Function: The SleepSense sensors described here are applied externally to the patient to measure physiological parameters like movement, snoring, airflow, and body position. They convert these physical parameters into electrical signals.
- No Specimen Collection or Analysis: The device does not involve the collection or analysis of any biological specimens from the patient.
The SleepSense sensors are considered medical devices used for physiological monitoring during sleep studies. They are part of a system that records data from the patient's body surface, not from internal specimens.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
SleepSense sensors provide a qualitative measure of a patient's physiological parameters for recording onto an FDA-cleared data acquisition system. Their target population: Children and adult patients who are screened during sleep disorder studies. Their environment of use is usually at a sleep laboratory or sometimes at the patient's home.

Device Description
Monitoring various physiological parameters is standard practice in sleep disorder testing. Standard overnight recordings show, among others, traces of parameters like respiration movement, leg and arm movement, snoring sounds, respiration airflow and body position during sleep.
In order to record tracings showing these parameters, sensors are needed to convert the physiological parameter into an electrical signal. These sensors are very simple sensing elements like piezo-crystals that convert mechanical force or vibrations to an electrical signal. Other sensing elements may be thermocouples which generate a signal proportional to temperature, or gravity switches, that switch and electrical circuit on and off depending on their position.
In practice, these sensing elements are packaged in small, patient-friendly enclosures which are applied to the patient, and connected to the recording system via a long and flexible cable. There is no electrical contact of any kind between the sensors and the patient.
All signals received from the sensors are qualitative, and are only used to record the dynamic nature or existence of the physiological parameter recorded. A specially trained sleep technician called "scorer" reviews the overall recording in the morning following the study. The signals recorded, together with additional channels like EKG or EEG, are analyzed to arrive at a diagnosis of a sleep disorder like sleep apnea or insomnia.

§ 868.2375 Breathing frequency monitor.
(a)
Identification. A breathing (ventilatory) frequency monitor is a device intended to measure or monitor a patient's respiratory rate. The device may provide an audible or visible alarm when the respiratory rate, averaged over time, is outside operator settable alarm limits. This device does not include the apnea monitor classified in § 868.2377.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Trade Name:
SleepSense sleep disorder sensors
Classification Name:
MNR - Ventilatory effort recorder
Classification:
The FDA has classified sensors for sleep disorder sensor device as class II devices. EPM development systems have classified the predicate devices as product code BZQ (monitor, respiration frequency). SLP selected to classify these products as product code MNR (Respiration effort recorder) under the same regulation #. 868.2375. This classification is based on the fact that these products do not monitor, but only output signals which are recorded in a system.
1
No monitoring takes place at all, since no indication of the patient's condition is presented to any caregiver, there is no need or intention to treat the patient, and there are no alarms or thresholds of any kind.

Performance Standards:
No performance standards are specified for physiological sensors for sleep disorder testing. The SleepSense sensors are designed, and are specified to be used, only with FDA approved sleep recording systems, which are required to comply with all electrical safety requirements as specified in IEC 60601-1.
Intended Use:
SleepSense sensors provide a qualitative measure of a patient's physiological parameters for recording onto an FDA-cleared data acquisition system. Their target population: Children and adult patients who are screened during sleep disorder studies. Their environment of use is usually at a sleep laboratory or sometimes at the patient's home.

Substantial Equivalence:
S.L.P Ltd. claims that SleepSense sensors are the same products as the predicate devices, since S.L.P is the designer and OEM manufacturer of the sensors distributed by EPM since 1990. It is therefore obvious that they are substantially equivalent to these predicate devices cited above, without raising new safety and/or effectiveness issues.
