Intended Use
Spectros T-Stat™ 303 Microvascular The Tissue Oximeter is intended for use as an adjunct monitor of the localized hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood in the microvascular tissue spaces (StO2%) in infants, children, or adults at risk for reduced-flow and no-flow ischemic states. The prospective clinical value of measurements made with the T-Stat™ Oximeter has not been demonstrated in disease states. The T-Stat™ Oximeter should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy.
Device Description
The Spectros T-Stat™ 303 Tissue Oximeter is a broadband, multiwavelength, Visible Light Spectroscopy (VLS) monitoring system for measuring the saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen in the microvascular tissue spaces (StO2%). The complete system consists of a disposable sensor probe connected to a software-driven electronic monitor. Data collection, analysis, and display functions are provided by the monitor. Illumination of the tissue is provided by a visible light source in the sensor probe placed near, on, or into the target tissue to be studied. Reflected light is captured and returned to the monitor via a detachable connection at the monitor end of the patient probe. StO2% is estimated using differential optical diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and fitting for background scattering over a range of reflected visible wavelengths.
More Information

No
The description details a spectroscopy-based system using differential optical diffuse reflectance and fitting for background scattering, which are traditional signal processing techniques, not AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the text.

No
The device is described as an "adjunct monitor" for measuring oxygen saturation and explicitly states it "should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy," indicating it is a diagnostic or monitoring device, not a therapeutic one.

Yes.

The "Intended Use" section states that the device is "intended for use as an adjunct monitor of the localized hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood in the microvascular tissue spaces (StO2%)". Monitoring physiological parameters to assess a patient's condition falls under the umbrella of diagnostic activities, even if it's an "adjunct" and "should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy."

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a disposable sensor probe connected to a software-driven electronic monitor, indicating the presence of hardware components (sensor probe, monitor).

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 examine these samples outside of the body.
  • Device Function: The Spectros T-Stat™ 303 Microvascular Tissue Oximeter measures the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin in the microvascular tissue spaces. This is a measurement taken in vivo (within the living body) using a sensor probe placed on or near the tissue.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze a sample taken from the body. It directly interacts with the tissue to obtain its measurement.

Therefore, the device's function and method of operation clearly fall outside the scope of an in vitro diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The Spectros T-Stat™ 303 Microvascular Tissue Oximeter is intended for use as an adjunct monitor of the localized hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood in the microvascular tissue spaces (StO2%) in infants, children, or adults at risk for reduced-flow and no-flow ischemic states.

The prospective clinical value of measurements made with the T-Stat™ Oximeter has not been demonstrated in disease states. The T-Stat™ Oximeter should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy.

Dear Mr. Curnan:

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.

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 of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
