More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a data transmission system and does not mention any analytical or interpretive functions that would typically involve AI/ML.

No
The device acts as a data transmission system for personal monitoring devices, sending data to a health management database. It does not provide any therapy or direct medical treatment.

No
The text indicates that "MediCompass Connect serves as an interface or a gateway between personal monitoring devices and a general purpose personal health management database." It transmits data from monitoring devices but does not analyze or interpret the data to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "system that transmits data from personal monitoring devices" and mentions using standard communication methods like "telephone lines or wireless, or transmits data by using a PC that has a connection to the Internet." While software is a key component for data transmission and interfacing, the description implies the system includes hardware components (e.g., interfaces for telephone lines, wireless communication, or a PC connection) to facilitate the data transfer from the monitoring devices. It is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that MediCompass Connect transmits data from personal monitoring devices (like blood glucose monitors, blood pressure cuffs, scales, etc.) to a database. It does not directly analyze biological samples.
  • The function is data transmission and management. The device acts as an interface or gateway to move data from monitoring devices to a database. It doesn't perform any diagnostic testing or analysis on the data itself to determine a medical condition.

The device's purpose is to facilitate the collection and transmission of health data from various monitoring devices, which is a different function than an in vitro diagnostic test.

Re: K042768 MediCompass Connect Regulation Number: 21 CFR 870.1130 Regulation Name: Noninvasive Blood Pressure Measurement System Regulatory Class: Class II (two) Product Code: DXN Dated: February 14,2005 Received: February 16,2005

Dear Mr. Egan;

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of February 22, 2005, regarding the incorrect year cited for the date of your submission. Please see the above date for the correction.

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.
