Intended Use
The CT Exprés III™ Contrast Media Delivery System (CMDS) is indicated for controlled automatic administration, on the venous side, of contrast media (CM) to human subjects while undergoing examination by means of a computed tomography (CT) scanner. The system consists of the CT Exprés III™ Instrument, the Bottle Spike, the Day Set III, the Patient Set, accessories and detachable parts. This device is not intended for injection of CM for coronary arteriography, or for any other use for which the device is not indicated. This device is only to be operated by and under quasi-continuous supervision of qualified medical staff in an appropriate licensed health care facility.
Device Description
The CT Exprés III™ Contrast Media Delivery System (CMDS) is a programmable, software driven, electromechanical, high-pressure contrast media injection system. The positive pressure necessary for the injection is generated by a disposable rotary peristaltic cassette, located inside one of the disposable (Patient Set). The CT Exprés III™ Contrast Media Delivery System consists of the main following elements: - . The instrument, i.e. the main unit (injector unit and power supply), the main control panel, and associated cables. - . Accessories, i.e. the handswitch. - Detachable parts, i.e. the remote control panel, the bottle insulators, and the pedestal pole. . - Three associated proprietary disposables creating a complete fluidic pathway from the . bottle of CM to the patient, i.e. the "Bottle Spike", the "Day Set III" and the "Patient Set". The printer and ceiling mount are provided as optional devices for use in combination with the CT Exprés III™.

No
The document describes a programmable, software-driven electromechanical injection system. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the intended use, device description, or the specific sections for AI/ML information.

No
This device is used to administer contrast media to enhance images during a diagnostic CT scan, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

This device is a Contrast Media Delivery System, used to administer contrast media to patients prior to a CT scan. It is not used to diagnose a medical condition itself, but rather enhances the imaging process that aids in diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "electromechanical" system and lists multiple hardware components like the "instrument (injector unit and power supply)", "accessories (handswitch)", "detachable parts", and "disposables".

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The CT Exprés III™ Contrast Media Delivery System is a device used to administer contrast media directly into a patient's venous system during a CT scan. It is an in vivo device, meaning it interacts with the living body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "controlled automatic administration... of contrast media... to human subjects while undergoing examination by means of a computed tomography (CT) scanner." This describes a therapeutic or procedural function, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.

Therefore, the CT Exprés III™ is a medical device used in conjunction with a diagnostic imaging procedure (CT scan), but it is not an in vitro diagnostic device itself.

Indications for use

Both the CT Exprés III™ and Premica™-CT contrast media delivery system are indicated for the controlled administration of contrast media for computed tomography scans.

The CT Exprés III™ can be used with all patients. The Premica™-CT labelling indicates that the device can not be used with patients under 16 years of age.

Physical design

Both systems consist of several elements.

Both systems have remote panels to allow easier user control of the systems.

Both systems provide single patient use disposables ("Patient Set"). Both systems have disposables with design features that prevent their reuse.

Both systems draw their contrast media or saline from multi-dose containers (bottles or soft pouches). Contrast media container volumes are identical for the two systems (50 - 500 mL).

Operational characteristics

Programmable flow rate ranges are nearly identical for both systems (0.5 - 9.9 mL/s for the CT Exprés III™, 0.2-9.9 mL/s).

The programmable volume of contrast media per injection is also identical (0 - 300 mL/injection).

Programmable flow rate ranges and programmable volume ranges being identical, the injection durations are also identical for the two systems.

The CT Exprés III™ can be programmed for injection sequences of one to five steps:

    1. Saline (pre-flush)
    1. Contrast media (phase one)
    1. Saline (intermediate flush)
    1. Contrast media (phase two)
    1. Saline (post-flush)

The Premica™-CT can be programmed for injection sequences of up to three steps:

    1. Contrast media (phase one)
    1. Contrast media (phase two)
    1. Saline (post-flush)

Both systems incorporate pressure sensors with the limit for triggering a pressure alarm (occlusion alarm) at 8 bar (ca. 120 psi).

Both systems incorporate Air-In-Line sensors for patient safety.

Since contrast media temperature can change the fluid viscosity, both systems provide for passive temperature control in the form of bottle insulators to reduce temperature loss from the heated contrast.

One difference between the two systems is the ability of the CT Exprés III™ to simultaneously accommodate two bottles of contrast media and one container with saline, whereas the Premica™-CT can accommodate only two fluid containers (two bottles of contrast media OR one bottle with contrast media and one container with saline).

Another difference between the two systems is the ability of the CT Expres III™ to accept not only the range of needle sizes (16-22 G) normally used for injecting contrast media, but also very small needle sizes (23-27 G). Note that, when using the very small needle sizes (23-27 G). the programmable injection rates may be limited to values of only a few mL/s because the injection pressure that CT Exprés III™ is generating is limited to 8 bar (ca. 120 psi). As a safety feature, CT Exprés III™ will automatically display information for the user when an injection rate is programmed above the limit injection rate. Under these circumstances, the CT Expres III™ will not function. This makes the CT Expres III™ suitable for use with patients or injection conditions where very small needle sizes are preferred.

The Premica™-CT can only accept needle sizes in the range of 16 - 22 G, making it unsuitable for use with patients or injection conditions where very small needle sizes are preferred.

These differences are explained for in the CT Exprés III™ operator's manual and software programming capabilities and do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.
