The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a "SNAP Model 8 Data Recorder and associated sensors and accessories," which are physical hardware components used to collect physiological data. While there is software involved for analysis and communication, the core data acquisition relies on dedicated hardware.
Based on the provided information, the SNAP Model 8 device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- SNAP Model 8 Function: The SNAP Model 8 device directly measures physiological signals from the patient's body (sound, pulse oximetry, respiration effort, body position) using external sensors. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the diagnostic evaluation of patients for apnea and snoring by recording these physiological signals.
Therefore, the SNAP Model 8 falls under the category of a medical device used for physiological monitoring and diagnosis, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description
The SNAP Model 8 system consists of several components. The Model 8 data recorder and associated sensors and accessories, the SNAP application software which run on a PC in the physician's office, and the SNAP data analysis software located on computers at the SNAP Diagnostics central location.
The SNAP Model 8 Data Recorder is a small DC powered device designed to be simple and easy to use by a patient. It is self-contained, with integrated microcontroller and LCD display and all necessary interface electronics to perform all system recording functions. It does not require connection to a host computer in order to perform the recording functions. The data recorder consists of the physical hardware and firmware that interfaces to the patient to collect the physiological data. The recorder has sensors to collect sound, pulse oximetry, respiration effort (belt), and body position. The information is digitized and stored on a removable solid state memory card (SD card). The data on the removable data card is accessed through a USB port on the device, connecting to a PC running the SNAP application software. The recorder is made from flame retardant ABS plastic and has the following specifications.
Respiratory Channels: 4
Sample Rate: 14 Hz (flow, effort), 2240 Hz (audio)
Measurements: Air Flow, Effort(2), Audio
Oximeter Channels: 2
Measurements: SaO2, Pulse (both sampled at 14 Hz)
Body Position Channel (optional): 1 (sampled at 14 Hz)
Height: 1.375 inches (34.925 mm)
Width: 5.5 inches (139.7 mm)

Weight (with power adapter): 15.9 ounces (0.45 kg)
Power: AC 100-240v 50-60Hz
Battery backup: 3.6v Lithium Ion
The SNAP application software consists of a DLL (dynamic link library) and GUI (graphical user interface) and provides the interface for all communication between the recorder and the computer in the doctor's office. The GUI calls DLL functions to interact with the data recorder. The GUI also interacts through the Internet with the central website to transfer the patient data, and provides various data entry functions. The GUI calls DLL functions to program the recorder, check status, clear memory, check USB connectivity, retrieve serial number, retrieve patient data, get time, etc.. The GUI interacts with the website to identify the patient for the programming step and to transfer the collected patient data to the web server.
The data analysis follows a pre-existing procedure that is already in place for earlier models. The patient data from the website is securely downloaded to analysis workstations at SNAP Diagnostics for analysis and processing. The SNAP data analysis software, which runs on PC computers at the SNAP Diagnostics central location, consists of a GUI and algorithms that allow SNAP to display the recorded data and mark the recorded events that are characteristic of sleep and respiratory disorders such as apnea. The software summarizes the events and provides the data necessary to generate a report. The resulting report is then securely uploaded back to the website so it can be made available to the referring physician by a transfer mechanism of their choice.

Intended Use
The SNAP Model 8 device is indicated for use in the diagnostic evaluation of patients for apnea and snoring and to provide quantitative and qualitative analysis of apnea and snoring.
The SNAP Model 8 system is not intended as a substitute for full polysomnography when additional parameters such as sleep stages or EEG activity are required.
The target population consists of patients who are suspected of apnea and/or complain about snoring. The majority of the test procedures will take place at the patient's home, although some may take place in a sleep laboratory. Both pediatric and adult patients may be tested.
Comparison to the Predicate Device
The SNAP Model 8 is an evolutionary design modification to the above-listed predicate device. The technological characteristics (i.e., design, material, electronic circuitry, energy source, software) are essentially the same as the predicate device. It is physically similar to the SNAP Model 7, in that it is a small, separate recorder located in the general vicinity of the patient, with all sleep sensors connected from the patient to the recorder box. As with the predicate device, there are no electrical connections to the patient. In addition, the Model 8 uses a medical grade power supply, and there are no exposed metal connectors or controls, further minimizing any electrical risk to the patient or the user. The Model 8 has been tested and certified to the International Standard EN 60601-1-2:2007, an accepted EMC/EMI standard for medical devices. The Model 8 has added a backup battery to the will allow the recorder to continue recording in case of a power outage. The sensors, transducers and accessories used with the Model 8 are similar to those used with the predicate device, and all instructions for use, for Recorder, oximeter, respiratory effort belt, etc., are appropriate for their intended use.
The PC computer interface to the Model 8 is via the USB interface and the same as the predicate device. The program running on the PC in the doctor's office (used for Recorder setup and data uploading from the Recorder) is the same as that used with the Model 7 predicate device. The Model 7 predicate device makes use of secure data transmission over the Internet for uploading patient data and demographic information to the SNAP Diagnostics central location for analysis and reporting. The Model 8 uses this same method, basically unchanged from that used with the Model 7, to enable the software running on the doctor's office computer to connect to the central data analysis site via the Internet. The secure https:// method for secure data transmission, using data encryption methods standard with most highsecurity financial transactions, is employed by the Model 8 software, the same as the Model 7 predicate

device. The SNAP data analysis software, which runs on PC computers at the SNAP Diagnostics central location, has been updated with a new GUI to support Windows (the older software used a DOS interface). The software displays the recorded data and allows manual marking of events. The algorithms are essentially unchanged from that used with the predicate device. Analysis is performed and reports are generated at the SNAP Diagnostics central site, and these reports are faxed to the physician and/or placed onto the SNAP Diagnostics secure web site for access and retrieval by the referring physicians.
Testing and Performance Data
The SNAP Model 8 has undergone medical electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing to verify compliance with CISPR 11:2009 and safety testing to verify compliance with IEC 60601-1-2 and any applicable particular standards in this family of international safety standards to ensure that there are no potential hazards to patients, operators, or the surroundings.
It was found that the SNAP Model 8 recorder meets the radio interference Power Line Conducted and Radiated emission requirements of CISPR 11 Group 1, Class B, Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) Radio-Frequency Equipment. It was found that the SNAP Model 8 recorder meets the requirements of European Standard EN 60601-1-2 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-2: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance Collateral Standard Electromagnetic Compatibility Requirements and Tests using the test procedures IEC 61000-4-2; IEC 61000-4-3; IEC 61000-4-4; IEC 61000-4-5; IEC 61000-4-6; IEC 61000-4-8; and IEC 61000-4-11.
No other specific guidance document on performance is required for this type of device.
The data recorded by the Model 8 was compared to data recorded from the predicate device and analyzed by qualified technicians. The result of the comparison is that the signals recorded by the Model 8 are in every respect clinically equivalent to those signals recorded by the predicate device. The presentation, analysis and reports generated by the analysis software were compared to those of the predicate device. The result of the comparison is that the analysis software is in every respect clinically equivalent to the presentation, analysis and reports generated by the predicate device.
