SafetyMate is designed to reinforce and remind users of the correct steps and procedures to provide established first aid care.
More Information

SafetyMate, SM200 Series

Exempt

No
The description focuses on providing pre-programmed verbal information based on button selections and voice queries, without mentioning any learning or adaptive capabilities.

No.
The device provides verbal information and reminders for first aid care, but it does not directly treat or diagnose any medical condition.

No

The device provides verbal information and guidance for first aid, reinforcing existing knowledge and reminding users of correct steps. It does not perform any assessment, measurement, or analysis of a patient's condition to determine the nature or cause of an illness or injury.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "hand-held, interactive talking first aid guide," implying a physical hardware component. The performance studies also refer to it as a "device."

Based on the provided information, this device 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.
  • SafetyMate's Function: The SafetyMate device provides verbal information and guidance on how to handle common medical emergencies. It does not analyze any biological samples from the user or patient.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it provides "verbal information from established sources to refresh how to handle common medical emergencies." This is an educational and guidance function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's an "interactive talking first aid guide" that provides "guidance for what to do in case of an emergency."
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting biomarkers, or any other activities typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

Therefore, the SafetyMate Talking First Aid device falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device. It is more accurately described as a medical device providing educational and procedural guidance for emergency situations.

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

Clinical usability and human factors studies were conducted to assess if SafetyMate Talking First Aid Device impairs appropriateness of care and/or speed to treat. Conclusions indicated that overall, no significant delays in treatment were noted. While there were a few instances in which changes to the protocols needed to be made to address points of confusion, either over word choice or clarity of instructions, those changes have been implemented and the issues have been answered.
Usability studies indicate that 100% of the users were able to use the device correctly without any prompting from the observer. The human factors study addressed two questions: first, whether the use of an audio prompting device (in this case, a SafetyMate Talking First Aid device), in a simulated first aid emergency situation, caused a delay in treatment when compared to the same situation without a prompting device; and second, whether the use of a prompting device lead the subjects to render inappropriate care, in a simulated first aid emergency situation. While there were a few instances in which changes to the protocols needed to be made, those changes have been implemented and the issues have been answered.

Clinical usability and human factors studies were conducted to assess if SafetyMate Talking First Aid Device impairs appropriateness of care and/or speed to treat. Conclusions indicated that overall, no significant delays in treatment were noted. While there were a few instances in which changes to the protocols needed to be made to address points of confusion, either over word choice or clarity of instructions, those changes have been implemented and the issues have been answered.

10. Conclusions:

4

Based on the design, technology, performance, functional testing, and intended use, the SafetyMate, SM200 series is substantially equivalent to the devices currently marketed under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Usability studies indicate that 100% of the users were able to use the device correctly without any prompting from the observer. The human factors study addressed two questions: first, whether the use of an audio prompting device (in this case, a SafetyMate Talking First Aid device), in a simulated first aid emergency situation, caused a delay in treatment when compared to the same situation without a prompting device; and second, whether the use of a prompting device lead the subjects to render inappropriate care, in a simulated first aid emergency situation. While there were a few instances in which changes to the protocols needed to be made, those changes have been implemented and the issues have been answered.

Dear Dr. Cohen:

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.
