The description focuses on data capture, logging, and offline analysis of MDI usage, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for interpretation or prediction.
No.
The device is described as an "electronic data capture accessory for recording and monitoring actuations of prescribed MDI usage" and a "compliance monitoring function for use of a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI)." It solely collects data and does not directly provide therapy or therapeutic benefit to the patient.
No
The SmartTrack System is an electronic data capture accessory for recording and monitoring actuations of prescribed MDI usage. It is used to track compliance and usage history, not to diagnose a medical condition. The description explicitly states it is not intended to indicate remaining medication or include a dose counting function.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components: a clip-on module with an optical sensor, LCD display, and control buttons, and a docking station. While there is a software component (Respiratory Analyzer), the system is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the SmartTrack System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- SmartTrack's Function: The SmartTrack System's intended use is to monitor and record the actuation of a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI). It does this by attaching externally to the MDI and using an optical sensor to detect when the MDI is used.
- No Specimen Analysis: The device does not interact with or analyze any biological specimens from the patient. Its function is purely related to the mechanical action of the MDI.
Therefore, the SmartTrack System falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device. It is a compliance monitoring accessory for a drug delivery device (the MDI).
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SmartTrack System is intended for single-patient use as an electronic data capture accessory for recording and monitoring actuations of prescribed MDI usage. This may be used in the following applications:
- In clinical trials, where researchers need to know when a patient has actuated their trial MDI medication;
- In clinical practice, where specialists, general practitioners, and nurse educators need to know if a patient has actuated their prescribed MDI medication.
The SmartTrack is not intended to indicate remaining quantity of medication in an MDI and does not include a dose counting function.

Device Description
The SmartTrack System consists of three modules used to provide a compliance monitoring function for use of a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI).
- SmartTrack is a clip-on module that attaches externally around the enclosure of an MDI, using an optical sensor to detect MDI actuation, to log the usage history of the MDI. The device includes an LCD display and control buttons to review basic data and adjust device settings. Various device status conditions are indicated to the user, and logged to provide potentially relevant context for later review of MDI usage history data.
- SmartTrack Docking Station is an optical interface cradle used to download data stored on the SmartTrack module, via USB cable connection to a PC, and allow for interaction by the offline software with device settings and status monitoring.
- Respiratory Analyzer is a software application for use on a PC that provides for offline review of the MDI compliance data logged by the SmartTrack module. Data is stored in database files with patient, medication, and prescribed dose information, and is available for review and export in various table and graph formats to highlight MDI usage characteristics.

(a)(4) Description of the Device
The SmartTrack System consists of three modules used to provide a compliance monitoring function for use of a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI).
- · SmartTrack is a clip-on module that attaches externally around the enclosure of an MDI, using an optical sensor to detect MDI actuation, to log the usage history of the MDI. The device includes an LCD display and control buttons to review basic data and adjust device settings. Various device status conditions are indicated to the user, and logged to provide potentially relevant context for later review of MDI usage history data.
- SmartTrack Docking Station is an optical interface cradle used to download data stored on the SmartTrack module, via USB cable connection to a PC, and allow for interaction by the offline software with device settings and status monitoring.
- Respiratory Analyzer is a software application for use on a PC that provides for offline review of the MDI compliance data logged by the SmartTrack module. Data is stored in database files with patient, medication, and prescribed dose information, and is available for review and export in various table and graph formats to highlight MDI usage characteristics.

(a)(5) Statement of the Intended Use
The SmartTrack System is intended for single-patient use as an electronic data capture accessory for recording and monitoring actuations of prescribed MDI usage. This may be used in the following applications:
- In clinical trials, where researchers need to know when a patient has actuated their trial MDI medication;
- . In clinical practice, where specialists, general practitioners, and nurse educators need to know if a patient has actuated their prescribed MDI medication.
The SmartTrack is not intended to indicate remaining quantity of medication in an MDI and does not include a dose counting function.
(a)(6) Technological Characteristics Summary
Technological characteristics of the SmartTrack system are largely equivalent to the predicate devices listed above. Equivalent features between the devices include: configuration in attaching to the outside of an MDI enclosure; microprocessor control and use of an internal clock, to log date and time of MDI actuations; power supply from an internal battery; interface to a personal computer via an optical docking station to download MDI usage data; and offline review software providing for data handling, device interaction, and patient data reporting functions.
The sensor technology used to detect MDI actuation is different from the predicate devices, and this aspect of the device has been verified by non-clinical testing to establish equivalent performance to the predicate devices.
(b)(1) Discussion of the Non-Clinical Tests
Non-clinical testing of the SmartTrack system has been carried out to cover functional verification and device performance. This included completion of software verification procedures, with performance testing of the MDI actuation sensor system to ensure data is logged accurately for MDI usage. This established correct functionality of the SmartTrack System according to requirements.
Third party testing of the SmartTrack System for compliance to IEC 60601 series standards for general safety and electromagnetic compatibility, and IEC 60068 series standards for environmental testing, will be completed by an accredited laboratory before marketing of the device.
(b)(2) Discussion of the Clinical Tests
Clinical testing was not required to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the SmartTrack System. The product functionality has been adequately assessed by bench testing as above.
(b)(3) Conclusions Demonstrating Safety, Effectiveness and Performance
Hardware testing carried out for the SmartTrack System indicates it meets design and performance functional requirements. Software verification demonstrates that device features are effective, and the system configuration functions equivalently to the predicate devices. The device will meet standard requirements for electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility before marketing.
This information indicates that the SmartTrack System is equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of device safety and effectiveness.
