Intended Use
Sensometrics Software is intended for use by a qualified nurse or physician to display variables from existing legally marketed primary measuring devices used to monitor neurosurgical and neurological patients. The parameters displayed by the Sensometrics Software include intracranial pressure, arterial blood pressure, oxygen, core/cerebral temperature, and these are continuously trended in charts. The presentation of both measured parameters and the relationships between them is intended as an adjunct to the information provided by existing primary monitors. The Sensometrics® Software should not be used alone as the sole basis for decisions as to diagnosis or therapy.
Device Description
Sensometrics® Software is a secondary display system that collects together on a single large color display screen the measured pressure variables relevant to the multimodality monitoring of the patient in a neurosurgical intensive care unit. It receives digital inputs from primary monitors used in the measurement of intracranial pressure, arterial blood pressure and cerebral temperature. The Sensometrics® Software displays the measured and derived variables in digital trace form and can store and display trends over periods of up to 240 hours.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on displaying and trending existing physiological data from primary monitors, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms for analysis or interpretation.

No
The device is a secondary display system that collects and displays variables from primary measuring devices; it is intended as an adjunct to information provided by existing primary monitors and should not be used as the sole basis for decisions on diagnosis or therapy. It does not exert any direct therapeutic action.

No

The Sensometrics Software is described as a "secondary display system" that presents data from existing primary measuring devices. Its function is to "display variables" and "continuously trend in charts" parameters like intracranial pressure and arterial blood pressure. The "Intended Use" explicitly states it should not be used alone "as the sole basis for decisions as to diagnosis or therapy," indicating it is an adjunct tool for monitoring rather than a device that makes a diagnosis.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "Sensometrics® Software is a secondary display system" and details its function as receiving digital inputs and displaying variables. There is no mention of any hardware component being part of the device itself, only that it receives data from existing primary measuring devices.

Based on the provided information, the Sensometrics Software 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.
  • Sensometrics Software's function: The Sensometrics Software receives digital inputs from existing legally marketed primary measuring devices that monitor physiological parameters like intracranial pressure, arterial blood pressure, oxygen, and temperature. It then displays and trends these parameters.
  • No sample analysis: The software does not analyze samples taken from the human body. It processes data from devices that are already measuring physiological parameters in vivo (within the body).

Therefore, the Sensometrics Software falls under the category of a medical device that processes and displays data from other medical devices, rather than an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Sensometrics® Software has undergone testing on several levels:
Module/Unit testing
Subsystem testing
Integration test
Verification and validation testing throughout the development life cycle
Final acceptance testing of the final product
The device performed according to specifications.
The Software was also compared with the Phillips and Integra devices in a performance comparison test. The test objective was to compare Mean ICP, Mean ABP, systolic pressure output, diastolic pressure output and cerebral temperature output between the three devices. The test results show that the parameters computed by Sensometrics software are equivalent to the predicate devices.

Dear Ms. Bundy:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
