More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a standard blood pressure monitor using the auscultatory method and does not mention any AI or ML terms, image processing, or data training/testing sets typically associated with AI/ML applications.

No
The device is a non-invasive blood pressure monitor, which is used for measurement and monitoring, not for therapeutic purposes.

Yes

Explanation: The device is a "Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Monitor" that measures "blood pressure (systolic and diastolic)" and "heart rate." These measurements are used to assess a patient's health status, which falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Blood Pressure Monitor that measures blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) using the ausculatory method." This method typically involves hardware components like a cuff, stethoscope, and pressure sensor, and the listed performance standards (IEC/EN 60601-1, ANSI/AAMI SP10, EN1060) are for physical medical devices, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health.
  • BPCard Function: The BPCard is described as a "Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Monitor that measures blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) using the auscultatory method." This is a direct measurement of a physiological parameter from the body, not an analysis of a specimen taken from the body.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples.

Therefore, the BPCard falls under the category of a non-invasive medical device used for monitoring physiological signs, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

BPCard, Model Z-7000-0700 Regulation Number: 21 CFR 870.1130 Regulation Name: Noninvasive Blood Pressure Measurement System Regulatory Class: Class II (two) Product Code: DXN Dated: December 14, 2007 Received: December 26, 2007

Dear Ms. Jensen:

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.

Page 2 -- Ms. Mary Kay Jensen

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 nft he 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 entitled, "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/odrh/industry/support/index.html.
