Intended Use
The Abreu BTT 700 System is intended for the continuous monitoring of skin temperature during surgical procedures, recovery room, intensive care, and general patient monitoring. The unit will alert the patient and/or hospital personnel when the monitored temperature exceeds or falls below pre-selected levels.
Device Description
The Abreu BTT 700 is a device used to measure the temperature of the skin by means of a thermistor coupled with an electronic signal amplification, conditioning, and display unit. As part of its basic design, the thermistor probe is an integral part of a non-disposable "Pen" (covered by a condom), and a disposable "finger." The components of the Abreu BTT 700 consist of a "pen", a disposable "finger", an Interface Module, and a USB A to USB mini cable. The Abreu BTT 700's Interface Module incorporates an onboard computer processing unit which is controlled by a permanently installed software program. Electronic signals received from the thermistor are processed in the Interface Module. With the aid of a computer assisted program, the output is a digital and analog temperature readout. The digital readout is in Celsius and Fahrenheit. The digital analog display is a 270° circular dial illustrating 16-40°C in tenths of a degree
More Information

No
The description details standard electronic signal processing and a permanently installed software program for temperature readout. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning algorithms.

No
The device is described as a continuous monitor of skin temperature during surgical procedures, recovery room, intensive care, and general patient monitoring. It alerts when temperature exceeds or falls below pre-selected levels. While it aids in patient monitoring, it does not directly treat or cure any condition, which is the primary characteristic of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a continuous monitoring system for skin temperature, alerting personnel when temperatures fall outside pre-selected levels. While it measures a physiological parameter, its primary function is monitoring and alerting, not diagnosing a specific disease or condition. The "Intended Use" focuses on monitoring during surgical procedures, recovery, intensive care, and general patient monitoring, which are surveillance activities rather than diagnostic. The "Device Description" confirms it measures and displays temperature.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components including a thermistor probe, "Pen", "finger", Interface Module, and cables, indicating it is not solely software.

Based on the provided information, the Abreu BTT 700 System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the continuous monitoring of skin temperature during surgical procedures, recovery, intensive care, and general patient monitoring. This is a direct measurement of a physiological parameter on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device measures skin temperature using a thermistor probe applied to the skin. It processes and displays this measurement.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Abreu BTT 700 System does not perform any analysis on such specimens. It directly measures a physical property of the patient's skin.

Therefore, the Abreu BTT 700 System falls under the category of a physiological monitoring device, not an IVD.

§ 880.2910 Clinical electronic thermometer.

(a)
Identification. A clinical electronic thermometer is a device used to measure the body temperature of a patient by means of a transducer coupled with an electronic signal amplification, conditioning, and display unit. The transducer may be in a detachable probe with or without a disposable cover.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in part 807, subpart E of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 880.9 and the following conditions for exemption:(1) Device is not a clinical thermometer with telethermographic functions;
(2) Device is not a clinical thermometer with continuous temperature measurement functions; and
(3) Appropriate analysis and testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions, as appropriate, of ISO 80601-2-56, “Medical electrical equipment—Part 2-56: Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of clinical thermometers for body temperature measurement,” or ASTM E1965, “Standard Specification for Infrared Thermometers for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1112, “Standard Specification for Electronic Thermometer for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1104, “Standard Specification for Clinical Thermometer Probe Covers and Sheaths”) must validate specifications and performance of the device.
