No
The description focuses on the oscillometric method, a standard technique for blood pressure measurement, and explicitly states that the method is similar to the auscultatory method. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related terms or concepts in the provided text.
No
The device is intended to measure blood pressure and pulse rate, which are diagnostic functions, not therapeutic ones. It does not treat or alleviate any condition.
No
The device measures physiological parameters like blood pressure and pulse rate but does not provide a diagnosis or aid in diagnosing a disease or condition. Its function is descriptive measurement rather than diagnostic.
No
The device description explicitly states it uses an inflatable cuff wrapped around the upper arm and a resistive pressure sensor, indicating it is a hardware device with software components, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device measures blood pressure, pulse rate, and pulse pressure of an individual by using a non-invasive technique with an inflatable cuff wrapped around the upper arm. This is a measurement of physiological parameters directly from the body.
- Device Description: The description reinforces the non-invasive nature of the measurement using the oscillometric method.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with or analyze any such specimens.
Therefore, the Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) is a non-invasive medical device for measuring vital signs, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) is a device intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate and pulse pressure (PP) of an adult individual by using a non-invasive oscillometric technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm.

Device Description
Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model WatchBP Office Tarqet (BP3MD1-4) is designed to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate and pulse pressure (PP) of an individual by using a noninvasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm. Our method to define systolic and diastolic pressure is similar to the auscultatory method but uses a resistive pressure sensor rather than a stethoscope and mercury manometer. The sensor converts tiny alterations in cuff pressure to electrical signals, by analyzing those signals to define the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and calculating pulse rate, which is a well - known technique in the market called the "oscillometric method".

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-Clinical Tests:
Testing information demonstrating safety and effectiveness of the Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) in the intended environment of use is supported by testing that was conducted in accordance with the FDA November 1993 Draft "Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notification Submissions", DCRND, which outlines Electrical, Mechanical and Environmental Performance requirements.
The following testing was conducted:
- a. Reliability Test Storage test
- b. Reliability Test Operating test
- c. Reliability Test Vibration test
- d. Reliability Test Drop test
- e. Reliability Test Life test
- EMC Test
None of the testing demonstrated any design characteristics that violated the requirements of the Reviewer Guidance or resulted in any safety hazards. It was our conclusion that Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) tested met all relevant requirements of the aforementioned tests.
Clinical Tests:
The subject modified device Model WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) is from the technical point of view, identical to the blood pressure monitor Model BP3BT0-1. The differences between them do not related to blood pressure measurement technology; therefore the clinical accuracy in terms of blood pressure detection will not be affected. Based on Microlife's risk analysis, repeated clinical testing in accordance with ANSI/AAMI SP10 is therefore not required.

4. Device Description:
Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model WatchBP Office Tarqet (BP3MD1-4) is designed to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate and pulse pressure (PP) of an individual by using a noninvasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm.

The target blood pressure value 140/90 mmHg is used for hypertensive patient. The target blood pressure value 130/80 mmHq is used for hypertension patients with diabetes, coronary heart disease or chronic kidney disease. If both the measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure values are below the set target values (140/90 or 130/80), the screen will light in green with two > signs and show the pulse pressure (PP). If either the measured systolic result is above the set target value (140/90 or 130/80), the screen will light in red with the difference to the goal value shown in display as number.
5. Intended Use:
The Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) is a device intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate and pulse pressure (PP) of an adult individual by using a non-invasive oscillometric technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm.
Comparison to the 510(k) Cleared Devices (Predicate Devices): 6.
a) Subject Modified Device Compared to BP3BT0-1 Predicate, K013485:
The subject modified device, Model WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) and the predicate device model BP3BT0-1, use the well-known oscillometric method within the software algorithm to determine the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate. Upper arm cuff is inflated automatically, deflation rate is controlled by one factory set exhaust valve and the deflation pressures are transferred to one sensor.
The differences between the two models are the sensor type and additional features such as blood pressure targets setting function, red/green backlight function and PP automatically calculation function. However, the differences do not affect the accuracy and normal use of this device based on the internal clinical tests comparing different sensors and cuff bladder materials.
- b) Subject Modified Device Compared to WatchBP Office (Twin200) Predicate, K082357:
The subject modified device. WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4) uses the same oscillometric method as the predicate WatchBP Office (Twin200) to determine the svstolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate and pulse pressure (PP). Upper arm cuff is inflated automatically by pump. the deflation rate is controlled by factory set exhaust valve and the deflation pressures are transferred via tubing to a sensor in these two units.
They differ by the intended use, measuring location, measuring mode, power source type. MAP automatically calculation function etc., however, the differences do not affect the accuracy and normal use of this device because they use the same fundamental scientific technology. Based upon the aforementioned information, the two devices are substantially equivalent.
The intended use of the subject modified device, the WatchBP Office Target (BP3MD1-4), has not changed from the 510(k) cleared predicate device labeling
