Intended Use
The PULSION PiCCO Plus is intended for determination and monitoring of cardiopulmonary and circulatory variables. Cardiac output is determined both continuously through pulse contour analysis and intermittently through thermodilution technique. In addition, the PiCCO Plus measures heart rate, systolic, and diastolic and derives mean arterial pressure. Analysis of thermodilution curve in terms of mean transit time and downslope time is used for determination of intravascular and extravascular fluid volumes. If a patient's weight and height are entered. the PiCCO Plus presents the derived parameters indexed to body surface area.

N/A

No
The summary describes standard physiological monitoring techniques (thermodilution, pulse contour analysis) and calculations based on measured parameters and patient demographics. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
The device is used for monitoring and analysis of physiological variables but does not actively treat or directly prevent a disease or condition.

Yes
The device is intended for the "determination and monitoring of cardiopulmonary and circulatory variables," which clearly falls under diagnostic purposes. It measures and analyzes various physiological parameters like cardiac output, heart rate, and arterial pressure to assess a patient's condition.

No

The description clearly states the device "measures heart rate, systolic, and diastolic and derives mean arterial pressure," and uses "thermodilution technique," which are functions typically performed by hardware components, not solely software. The device is described as a system ("PULSION PiCCO Plus") that performs measurements, implying hardware is involved.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • The description of the PULSION PiCCO Plus clearly states its intended use is for determining and monitoring cardiopulmonary and circulatory variables directly within the patient's body. It uses techniques like pulse contour analysis and thermodilution, which are applied in vivo (within a living organism).

The device is measuring physiological parameters directly from the patient, not analyzing samples taken from the patient. This aligns with the definition of an in vivo diagnostic or monitoring device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Trade Name: Pulsion Continuous Pulse Contour Cardiac Output (PiCCO Plus) System Regulation Number: 21 CFR 870.1435 Regulation Name: Single-function, Preprogrammed Diagnostic Computer Regulatory Class: Class II (two) Product Code: DXG Dated: June 29, 2006 Reccived: June 30, 2006

Dear Dr. Sulley:

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.

1

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 not 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 enfitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html .
