Intended Use
Laborie Urodynamic systems are intended for Urodynamics testing. The traditional equipment performs standard tests including uroflowmeter, cystometry, micturition, electromyography and urethral pressure profiles. The accessory to our standard equipment, Tetra, uses near infrared spectroscopy, for non-invasive testing of bladder activity, aiding in the diagnosis of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms - that is patients who suffer from Urinary Incontinence. All Urodynamic equipment including the Laborie Urodynamic System with Tetra Accessory are for use under the direction of a licensed physical or health care professional in an office or hospital setting.
Device Description
The complete device includes traditional Urodynamic system and the Tetra accessory. That is all the standard components, for uroflowmetry and pressure measurement, and the new non-invasive component the Tetra accessory to detect bladder activity.

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and describes the technology as traditional urodynamic methods and near infrared spectroscopy, with no mention of AI/ML in the device description or performance studies.

No
The device is used for diagnosing lower urinary tract symptoms and aiding in the diagnosis of urinary incontinence, not for treating these conditions.

Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is "aiding in the diagnosis of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms".

No

The device description explicitly states that the complete device includes "traditional Urodynamic system and the Tetra accessory," which are hardware components for uroflowmetry, pressure measurement, and near infrared spectroscopy.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The description of the Laborie Urodynamic System with Tetra Accessory indicates it performs tests on the patient (uroflowmetry, cystometry, EMG, urethral pressure profiles, and near infrared spectroscopy on the bladder). It does not mention analyzing samples like blood, urine, or tissue outside the body.
  • The intended use describes testing and aiding in diagnosis of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms. While it aids in diagnosis, the methods described are physiological measurements taken directly from the patient, not analysis of biological specimens.
  • The input imaging modality is Near infrared spectroscopy, which is applied to the bladder (an anatomical site). This is a non-invasive method applied to the body, not a method for analyzing a specimen.

Therefore, the Laborie Urodynamic System with Tetra Accessory falls under the category of a medical device used for physiological measurement and diagnosis, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 876.1620 Urodynamics measurement system.

(a)
Identification. A urodynamics measurement system is a device used to measure volume and pressure in the urinary bladder when it is filled through a catheter with carbon dioxide or water. The device controls the supply of carbon dioxide or water and may also record the electrical activity of the muscles associated with urination. The device system may include transducers, electronic signal conditioning and display equipment, a catheter withdrawal device to enable a urethral pressure profile to be obtained, and special catheters for urethral profilometry and electrodes for electromyography. This generic type of device includes the cystometric gas (carbon dioxide) device, the cystometric hydrualic device, and the electrical recording cystometer, but excludes any device that uses air to fill the bladder.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 876.9.

Dear Ms. Mornet:

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 (Premarket Approval), 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.

Image /page/3/Picture/10 description: The image is a circular logo with the letters "FDA" in large, bold font in the center. Above the letters, the numbers "1906 - 2006" are displayed. Below the letters, the word "Centennial" is written in a cursive font. The entire logo is surrounded by a circular border with text that is difficult to read due to the image quality.
