Intended Use
The Alaris PC Unit is the main user interface unit and power supply of the Alaris System, a modular system to be used with Alaris System modules (aka Medley System modules) intended for use in today's growing professional healthcare environment for facilities that utilize infusion and/or monitoring devices. The specific intended use for each Alaris System module is specified in its respective submission.
Device Description
The Alaris System is a modular system that consists of a point-of-care unit (PC Unit) that provides the main user interface and power supply for the associated infusion and monitoring modules. The Enhanced PC Unit will include a faster processor, increased memory, and a color screen. This update is only for the Alaris PC Unit and does not require any change to the associated modules, systems, or accessories of the Alaris System.
More Information

No
The document describes a modular infusion system with an updated user interface and power supply. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the provided text.

No
The Alaris PC Unit is described as the main user interface and power supply for a modular system that is used with infusion and/or monitoring devices. It does not perform any therapeutic function itself, but rather supports devices that might have therapeutic functions.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "modular system to be used with Alaris System modules... intended for use in today's growing professional healthcare environment for facilities that utilize infusion and/or monitoring devices." It functions as a user interface and power supply for other modules, which are for "infusion and/or monitoring devices." There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions, diseases, or provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "point-of-care unit (PC Unit)" which provides the "main user interface and power supply" for associated modules. This indicates a physical hardware component, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the Alaris PC Unit as the main user interface and power supply for a modular system used with infusion and monitoring devices in a professional healthcare environment. This description focuses on delivering fluids and monitoring physiological parameters, not on examining specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The device description reinforces its role as a control unit and power supply for associated modules, not as a device that performs in vitro tests.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Using reagents or assays
    • Providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests

The Alaris System, as described, is an infusion and monitoring system, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
