Intended Use
The Linemaster wireless foot switch is an accessory that is indicated for use to provide foot switch input control to any medical device that uses a wired foot switch with a switch closure (on/off), to activate said device. The system is intended for use in hospitals, outpatient clinics and physicians offices.
Device Description
The Linemaster wireless foot switch will be an accessory to and provide foot switch input control to any medical device that uses a foot switch to control on/off inputs. The system includes a wireless foot switch and a receiver. The wireless foot switches share the same transmission schemes, however each manufacturer will have a unique identification code that is programmed into the transmitter and receiver. This identification code will only allow communication of systems that have been programmed with the same identification code. Systems from different manufacturers will not communicate with each other. When coupled with a system that uses a wired foot switch the wireless system will function in the same way as the wired version. Apart from the software, the technological characteristics are the same or similar to, those of the predicate wired device where LED-based systems and infrared signals are used to operate the device. The elimination of wires on the floor of the operating room will improve the safety and efficiency by uncluttering the OR floor and reducing set-up and cleanup time.

No
The description focuses on wireless communication and basic on/off control, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

No
The device is an accessory that provides foot switch input control to other medical devices; it does not directly diagnose, treat, or prevent disease.

No
The device is described as an accessory that provides foot switch input control (on/off) to other medical devices. It doesn't perform diagnostic functions itself, but rather facilitates the operation of devices that might be diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly states the system includes a wireless foot switch and a receiver, which are hardware components. While software is mentioned, the device is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The Linemaster wireless foot switch is described as an accessory that provides input control (on/off) to other medical devices. It acts as a remote switch.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to activate other medical devices, not to analyze biological specimens.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the wireless transmission and control mechanism, not on any analysis of biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Keywords: There are no mentions of analyzing specimens, diagnostic testing, or any other terms typically associated with IVDs.

The device is clearly an accessory for controlling other medical devices in a clinical setting, not a device for performing diagnostic tests on biological samples.

Dear Mr. Szostek:

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 application (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 such 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
