No
The description focuses on data collection, management, display, and storage from existing fetal monitors. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms being used for analysis, interpretation, or prediction.

No.
The device is a software package that collects, manages, displays, and archives data from fetal monitors. It does not directly provide therapy or therapeutic intervention to the patient. Its physiological purpose is indirect, as it gathers and stores information from other primary care sources (fetal monitors).

No

Explanation: While the device processes and displays physiological data (fetal heart rate information) to aid healthcare professionals in patient surveillance, its primary stated purpose is to collect, manage, store, and display real-time data from other fetal monitors. It "gathers and stores fetal and maternal information provided by the attached fetal monitors which constitute the primary care sources," meaning it is a data management and viewing system, not a device that itself diagnoses conditions by directly acquiring or analyzing patient physiological signals for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "monitoring system" that "collects data from up to 48 beds in real time" and "displays data graphically to the user at conveniently sited client workstations." While it is a software package, it is part of a larger system that includes communication links, a central server, and client workstations, implying hardware components beyond just the software itself. It also collects data from "otherwise autonomous CTG devices," which are hardware.

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

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.
  • Dopplex Centrale's Function: The Dopplex Centrale collects and manages real-time data from fetal monitors. It displays and stores this data for patient surveillance and management. It does not analyze specimens taken from the human body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it is for "comprehensive and centralised obstetrical surveillance" and "patient surveillance within a perinatal environment." This involves monitoring physiological data from the patient via connected devices, not analyzing biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it collects and displays data from fetal monitors.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens, reagents, or any other typical components of an IVD device.

Therefore, the Dopplex Centrale is a medical device used for patient monitoring and data management, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

  • Capable of data exchange with an external HIS via HL7 interface or similar according to . customer supplied specifications and acceptance requirements.
  • Collection of real-time fetal and vital-signs data from Huntleigh and other supported fetal . monitors by third party equipment manufacturers using industry standard data communication protocols.
  • Fetal monitor CTG data transmitted over serial port via direct link to Dopplex Centrale or by . means of a local area network (wireless and wired IEEE802.11) using external access equipment such as bridges, routers and data concentrators.
  • . Configurable trace rates and vertical scales
  • The real-time data can be viewed anywhere on the DCII network. Single or multiple traces . can be viewed. Each trace offers smooth horizontal scrolling, on trace display and annotation of traces, date/time indication.
  • Alerts (Bradycardia, Tachycardia, loss of contact, cross-channel twins monitoring . verification) are displayed on the CTG trace, in the bed column and as an audible alert. A user can customise the alert settings or the default settings can be used. Colour bands on the graticule indicate the alert settings. These are supplementary to the local alert thresholds on the individual fetal monitors.
  • Key clinical indicators are displayed below the chart so that users can view important . information specific to a patient. These indicators are selected when the user enters a patient's data.
  • . A 'chalkboard' option provides an overview of the current status of all beds on the unit. The format of the 'chalkboard' information table is customisable at manufacture or by the system administrator. The default 'chalkboard' fields are "Consultant", "Midwife" and "Comments". The 'chalkboard' display is a live overview of the current status of the unit and its data is not saved
  • . A labour suite administrative ontion provides a customisable table which is primarily intended to provide an on-call duty rota with contact details, for key obstetric staff and other specialists who may need to be consulted in an emergency.
  • A partogram option allows the progress of labour to be viewed as a clinical chart for . individual patients. Typically, data is entered into the partogram chart every 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Partogram layout and content varies widely. Dopplex Centrale is able to customise the chart style according to local requirements.

  • Beds can be grouped together under generic categories such as 'labour ward' or 'day centre' . to permit optimal flexibility in organising the layout of the system.
  • All CTG traces and partogram charts can be retrieved from the database for reviewing. .
  • Able to accept off line CTG files via a dial-up modem connection to a Fetal Assist portable . fetal monitor working remotely in the community. Dopplex Centrale only supports a modem connection with this Huntleigh product using a pre-defined and company confidential data format. Remotely downloaded Fetal Assist files are stored in the database and accessed for review as per on-line recordings.
  • The patient details dataset is fully customisable at manufacture according to user requirement . specification.
  • Each CTG can have a set of trace notes attached to it. These notes are fully customisable at . manufacture according to user requirement specification.
  • Dopplex Centrale II can print patient reports, which can be configured by the user or system . administrator. The reports can contain any data available in the database.
  • Dopplex Centrale II can limit the information displayed to the user so that if a client is . running in an insecure environment the data displayed can be set to be non-patient specific.
  • Dopplex Centrale II provides on-line help and a reference library. .
  • Dopplex Centrale II provides an audit log. .

. ............................................................................................................................................................................

  • Dopplex Centrale II provides full patient backup by means of an automated database archive t and backup service. The data can be archived to removable media.
  • . Dopplex Centrale II provides user authentication and authorisation for some or all of the actions within the system.
  • If Centrale II loses contact with a Fetal Assist monitor for a length of time (user defined) and � then re-establishes contact with the assist or monitor, a command is sent out asking for any buffered data which may be held by the monitor concerned. If historical data is available it will be sent through in bulk form so that the gaps in the trace can be filled in. The amount of historical data sent will not affect the transmission of the real-time data.

Summary of Safety and Effectiveness


Dopplex Centrale (DCII) replicates the essential functions of the Phillips OB TraceVue system for applications requiring centralised perinatal monitoring of CTG devices.

Dopplex Centrale permits easy-to-use patient surveillance within a hospital environment. It is modular in nature and can be tailored to the working practices of individual institutions through the use of various feature options that are configured by the manufacturer.

The modular nature of its implementation allows Dopplex Centrale complete flexibility in terms of deployment architecture. Again, under manufacturer control subjugate to agreement of customer requirements. It is possible to build a stand-alone solution consisting of a single computer or a fully networked system using a central server and up to 50 remote client machines. Dopplex Centrale provides Obstetric and Gynecology departments with an electronic alternative to conventional perinatal paper charts and records. Dopplex Centrale collects the real-time data from up to 48 fetal monitors and saves this information within a managed database.

The CTG data as received from multiple bed sources can be viewed on screen in an effective and comprehensible manner. Dopplex Centrale interchangeably supports data communication protocols for a variety of fetal monitor models including the Huntleigh BD4000 and the Phillips Series 50 range.

The hardware for this system is off the shelf PCs and servers which meet the required performance specification. The central server will always be supplied to the end user as a preconfigured computer by the manufacturer.

Substantial equivalence between Dopplex Centrale and the Phillps OB TraceVue product has been determined through a comprehensive review of the features of the latter as defined within its product labelling and marketing information. This indicated that Dopplex Centrale is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device with regards to safety effectiveness and intended use.

The safety of the computer platform host machines is shown by compliance with the relevant standards for ITE devices such as UL1950, IEC950 or EN60950. The electrical safety requirements for the holistic system have been established by review of EN 60601-1-1. Software safety is demonstrated by conformance with the Risk Assessment requirements BSEN60601-1-4 and extensive validation procedures prior to release to end users.

The intended use of this device is the same as the intended use for many other products which arc already placed on the market. These devices, as well as the predicate OB TraceVue, provide similar information as is furnished by Dopplex Centrale. This clinical information can be interpreted by medical professionals working within the Obstetric and Gynecology field. Therefore, all aspects of Dopplex Centrale have predicates in other devices which are already well accepted within the clinical community.
