Intended Use
The Stöckert Air Purge Control (APC) System detects air in the venous line and removes air from the venous bubble trap of the Synergy™/ECC.O™ System tubing circuit. The Synergy™/ECC.O™ shall only be used in conjunction with the Stöckert S5 (or any compatible system using the S5 firmware versions of 3.0 or greater) and the SCP Plus System. The Stöckert S5 System is indicated for speed controlled pumping of blood through the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit for durations of six hours or less, left ventricular venting, cardiotomy suction and administration of cardioplegia solution.
Device Description
The Stöckert APC System consists of the APC sensor module (Catalog Number: 23-45-22), 3-joint mast holder with fast clamp connectors for two bubble sensors, 420mm (Catalog Number: 23-26-96), bubble sensor for 3/8 inch tubing (Catalog Number: 23-07-50), and ultrasonic gel, bottle, 250 mL (Catalog Number: 96-06-10). All of these components are identical to those used with the Stöckert S5 System (K091008). The Stöckert APC can be operated automatically and manually using the APC displet of the heart lung machine. The Stöckert APC bubble trap is placed just before the venous bubble trap of the Synergy™/ECC.OTM. When bubble activity is sensed, the assigned roller pump on the heart lung machine console begins operation to remove a set tubing volume (as determined by tubing size and pump speed (RPM)) or to run for a set time (in seconds) at a perfusionist-selected flow rate. This fluid is pumped into an appropriate blood collection reservoir. The technology of the Stöckert APC is based on the technology of the Stöckert Air Purge Control System (K041558). The Stöckert APC is used for detecting air in the venous line and removing air from the venous bubble trap of the Synergy™/ECC.O™ System tubing circuit.
More Information

No
The description focuses on ultrasonic sensing and automated mechanical action based on detected air, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for detection or control.

No
The device aids in removing air from a tubing circuit used in cardiopulmonary bypass, which is a medical procedure, but the device itself does not directly treat a disease or condition in a patient. It is a component that ensures the safe operation of another therapeutic system.

No

The device is described as detecting and removing air from a tubing circuit, which is a functional task during cardiopulmonary bypass. It does not provide information about a patient's health status or diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as the "APC sensor module," "3-joint mast holder," and "bubble sensor."

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to detect and remove air from a blood circuit during cardiopulmonary bypass. This is a mechanical function related to the operation of a medical device (heart-lung machine) and not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The device consists of sensors, holders, and gel, all used to physically interact with the tubing circuit and the heart-lung machine. It doesn't involve analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, tissue, or other biological samples to provide diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

The device is clearly intended for use in a surgical setting during cardiopulmonary bypass to ensure the safety and proper functioning of the blood circuit.

Summary of Performance Studies

No comparative non-clinical testing served as the basis for substantial equivalence. The Stöckert Air Purge Control (APC) System was tested in conjunction with the heart lung machine for safety in accordance with IEC60601-1 (with National Deviations), for electromagnetic compatibility in accordance with IEC60601-1-2, and performance according to a formal prospectively defined functional acceptance test and simulated use/in-use validation testing. Testing of the Stöckert Air Purge Control (APC) System (hardware, firmware, and performance) has demonstrated that the System fulfills prospectively defined performance criteria and that the System meets user needs. Formal clinical testing of the Stöckert Air Purge Control (APC) System has not been performed.
