Intended Use
The Express Series uses the direct measurement of oxygen uptake to objectively and noninvasively assess cardiac and pulmonary function during exercise. The system can be used to screen for early signs of cardiac and pulmonary dysfunction; differentiate heart and lung disease; assess dyspnea complaints; classify patients according to severity of disease as a guide for patient management; establish an optimal exercise prescription and training program; evaluate the efficiency of prescribed therapy. The Express Series uses the direct measurement of oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production to provide nutritional assessment, to optimize nutritional supplements and quantify substrate utilization. The Express Series can also provide direct Fick determination of cardiac output using real time oxygen uptake measurements.
Device Description
The Express Series is a cardiopulmonary exercise or resting metabolic measurement system with an integrated touch screen computer that provides breath by breath measurements of flow, oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production.
More Information

No
The summary describes a system for direct measurement of physiological parameters and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No
The device assesses cardiac and pulmonary function and evaluates the efficiency of prescribed therapy, but it does not directly provide therapy itself.

Yes

The text explicitly states the system "can be used to screen for early signs of cardiac and pulmonary dysfunction; differentiate heart and lung disease; assess dyspnea complaints; classify patients according to severity of disease as a guide for patient management." These are all diagnostic functions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "cardiopulmonary exercise or resting metabolic measurement system with an integrated touch screen computer," indicating it includes hardware components for direct measurement.

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.
  • Device Function: The Express Series directly measures physiological parameters like oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production during exercise or rest. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended uses described (assessing cardiac/pulmonary function, nutritional assessment, cardiac output) are based on real-time physiological measurements, not the analysis of biological samples.

Therefore, the Express Series falls under the category of a medical device that performs physiological measurements, but it is not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Laboratory and clinical testing of 10 systems has shown the Express Series to have substantial equivalence in performance and precision to the predicate device. Tandem gas exchange system validator studies performed with the predicate device produced comparative data output with less than 5% variability for VO2, VCO2 and tidal volume.

510(k) Special Summary Medgraphics Express Series

Date of Summary March 27, 2007 Company Name Medical Graphics Corporation 350 Oak Grove Parkway St. Paul, MN 55127 Contact Name Mary E. Donlin Classification name: 73BZLOxygen Uptake Computer Product Name: Express Series CFR section: 868.1730 Oxygen Uptake Computer Device Class: Class IIa

Predicate Device: Medgraphics Ultima System K061731 manufactured by Medical Graphics Corporation, 350 Oak Grove Parkway, St. Paul, MN 55127.

Description: The Express Series is a cardiopulmonary exercise or resting metabolic measurement system with an integrated touch screen computer that provides breath by breath measurements of flow, oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production.

Intended Use: Medgraphics Express Series is intended for medical applications requiring a non-invasive assessment of the cardiopulmonary response to exercise or measurement of energy expenditure using indirect calorimetry.

Comparison: Direct comparison with the predicate device was made with acceptable conclusions.

Discussion: Laboratory and clinical testing of 10 systems has shown the Express Series to have substantial equivalence in performance and precision to the predicate device. Tandem gas exchange system validator studies performed with the predicate device produced comparative data output with less than 5% variability for VO2, VCO2 and tidal volume.

Conclusion: The Medgraphics Express Series is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Dear Ms. Donlin:

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.
