Intended Use
The LaborPro System is intended for monitoring the active phase of labor in women with term gestations and a singleton fetus in vertex presentation. The device intermittently assesses fetal head station, position and cervical dilation. Cervical dilation using LaborPro is assessed using position sensors during vaginal examination. The Labor Pro also may be used to measure cervical length, pubic arch angle and interspinous diameter using position sensors during vaginal examination. The LaborPro combines a magnetic tracking system including a transmitter and position sensor with an ultrasound imaging system (not included with the LaborPro). Measurements are displayed numerically and graphically as a function of time to show the progress of labor.
Device Description
The LaborPro System is comprised of the following components: 1. A magnetic based tracking system 2. A system console which integrates the tracker unit electronics and the system computer, 3. A touch screen monitor, used for display and operation. 4. LaborPro software application 5. Sensor Sleeve and reference sticker (an "off the shelf" tape and bandage adhesive). 6. An 'off the shelf' ultrasound device; not supplied with the system 7. An 'off the shelf CardioTocoGram (CTG) monitor (optional); not supplied with the system LaborPro System, a minimally invasive device, assesses labor The parameters intermittently by accompanying the physician during his/her routine examinations. The LaborPro magnetic position tracking system is designed for tracking the spatial location of the sensor tip. Spatial localization of landmarks may be simply obtained by either touching external landmarks of interest with the sensor tip and/or by marking structures of interest on a ultrasound image extracted from an "off the shelf" calibrated ultrasound probe aligned with a position sensor. The spatial localization of each sensor then may allow for the assessment of certain measurements such as cervical dilatation simply by touching points within the system's working area and yielding the relative distance/angles between the touched points in a caliper-like fashion. In addition, localization of key anatomical points either by touching external landmarks with a sensor tip or marking structures of interest on an ultrasound image enable mapping of the spatial position and orientation of the pelvis and specifically the level of the pelvic inlet plane; which is used as the relative plane for the fetal head station measurement.

No
The description focuses on magnetic tracking and ultrasound image marking for measurements, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms for analysis or interpretation.

No.
The device is intended for monitoring and assessing labor parameters, which are diagnostic functions, not therapeutic interventions.

Yes
The device is described as "intermittently assess[ing] fetal head station, position and cervical dilation" and measuring "cervical length, pubic arch angle and interspinous diameter." These measurements provide information about the patient's condition to aid in diagnosis or monitoring.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a magnetic tracking system, system console, touch screen monitor, sensor sleeve, and relies on external ultrasound and CTG monitors.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This typically involves analyzing biological samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc.
  • LaborPro's Function: The LaborPro System directly interacts with the patient's body during a physical examination (vaginal examination). It uses a magnetic tracking system and potentially ultrasound imaging to measure physical parameters like fetal head station, position, cervical dilation, cervical length, pubic arch angle, and interspinous diameter.
  • No Specimen Analysis: The device does not analyze any biological specimens derived from the patient. It is measuring physical dimensions and positions within the body.

Therefore, the LaborPro System falls under the category of a medical device used for monitoring and measurement during labor, but it does not meet the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

LaborPro System, a minimally invasive device, assesses labor The parameters intermittently by accompanying the physician during his/her routine examinations.

The LaborPro magnetic position tracking system is designed for tracking the spatial location of the sensor tip. Spatial localization of landmarks may be simply obtained by either touching external landmarks of interest with the sensor tip and/or by marking structures of interest on a ultrasound image extracted from an "off the shelf" calibrated ultrasound probe aligned with a position sensor. The spatial localization of each sensor then may allow for the assessment of certain measurements such as cervical dilatation simply by touching points within the system's working area and yielding the relative distance/angles between the touched points in a caliper-like fashion. In addition, localization of key anatomical points either by touching external landmarks with a sensor tip or marking structures of interest on an ultrasound image enable mapping of the spatial position and orientation of the pelvis and specifically the level of the pelvic inlet plane; which is used as the relative plane for the fetal head station measurement.

5.14 Substantial Equivalence:

Intended Use

With regard to its intended use, the LaborPro System is substantially equivalent to the combination of its predicate devices. In similarity to the CLM predicate device, the LaborPro enables measurements of labor

2

progression parameters and is intended for monitoring labor. In addition, the LaborPro system is intended to measure pubic arch angle, interspinous diameter, and cervical length similar to pelvimeters and the Cervilenz Measuring Sound predicate devices respectively.

Technological Characteristics and Mode of Operation

Similarly to the UltraGuide predicate device, the LaborPro System is based on an integrated "off the shelf" ultrasound and magnetic tracking system. Both devices calculate the relative spatial positions of sensors prior to analysis. Localization and relative distances and angles of landmarks of interest by the LaborPro magnetic based transmitter and sensors/receivers is similar to the CLM predicate that determines the localization and relative distances of landmarks (fetal head and cervical margins) by ultrasound based transmitters and receivers.

Performance Testing

A set of software, bench and clinical testing was performed in order to demonstrate the performance and accuracy of the LaborPro System and to verify that it does not raise any new safety and effectiveness issues in comparison to its predicate devices. The testing included the following:

  • Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility testing . according to IEC 60601-1 (and amendments), and IEC 60601-1-2 (and amendment) standards.
  • Software verification and validation testing was conducted to . evaluate the performance of the LaborPro System and to verify that it performs according to its specifications described in the Software Requirements Specifications (SRS).
  • Bench testing on a phantom. ■
  • A clinical study was conducted to validate the accuracy of the 트 LaborPro System against two independent experienced attending physicians and/or caregivers (gold-standard). The study results establish the accuracy of the LaborPro System in measuring labor parameters.

Summary

The LaborPro System has the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate Based on the performance testing results, including software devices. verification and validation process, bench and clinical testing, the analysis of the similarities and differences, Trig Medical Ltd believes that the LaborPro System is substantially equivalent to its predicates without raising new issues of safety or effectiveness.
