The device description and intended use focus on basic physiological monitoring (heart/breath sounds, temperature) using a physical stethoscope and temperature sensor. There is no mention of any computational analysis, pattern recognition, or learning algorithms.
No
Explanation: The device is an esophageal stethoscope used to listen to heart and breath sounds and optionally monitor temperature, which are diagnostic and monitoring functions, not therapeutic.
No
The device is described as an esophageal stethoscope for listening to heart and breath sounds and optionally monitoring temperature, which are monitoring functions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly details a physical, tubular device with openings, a cuff, and provisions for a temperature sensor and electrical conductors. It is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to listen to heart and breath sounds and optionally monitor temperature. These are direct physiological measurements taken from within the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a stethoscope and a temperature sensor, designed for direct patient contact and measurement.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not process or analyze such specimens.
The device is a medical device used for monitoring physiological parameters in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro (in glass or outside the body).
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an esophageal stethoscope to listen to patient heart and breathe sounds while a patient is under anesthesia or sedation.
Optionally it may be used as a temperature sensor to monitor patient temperature.
The electrical conductors are YSI 400 or 700 series compatible.
They can be provided "clean, non-sterile" or "sterile".

Device Description
The NovaMed esophageal stethoscopes are long tubes which at the distal end have openings in the side wall and tip end. These openings are covered by a thin non-inflatable cuff to prevent secretions from entering in the distal end.
A temperature sensor or electrical conductor can be placed inside the distal end with connecting wires running internally and exiting the proximal end of the stethoscope. The proximal end is fitted with a standard slip fit luer for connection to any standard earpiece or to the Lifesound electronic stethoscope (K844804). The insulated temperature sensor wires are terminated with standard connectors for fitting to standard cables which connect to the temperature monitor. They are available is various lengths, diameters (sizes), with or without temperature, and packaged clean, non-sterile and sterile.
