Intended Use
The Fukuda Denshi VaSera model VS-1500AU is a non-invasive diagnostic system designed to assist in the detection of peripheral vascular diseases. It has a capability of measing non-invasive blood pressures, heart rate, pulse volume recordings and heart sounds. The device also has the capability of calculating ABI (Ankle Brachial Index), TBI (Toe Brachial Index), and pulse wave velocity measurements. The device is intended to be used under the order of a physician, in hospitals, doctor's offices, clinics or other medical facilities where non-invasive peripheral vascular tests are performed. The device is intended to be used on adult population only. The device is not intended for home use.
Device Description
The Fukuda Denshi VaSera model VS-1500AU is a prescriptive device intended for use by health care professionals. It is designed to be used to assist the clinician in the detection of peripheral vascular diseases and has been designed and tested to automate published clinical diagnostic test methods. The device is capable of measuring non-invasive blood pressures, non-invasive pulse volume recordings and heart sounds. In addition, the device is capable of calculating specific clinically recognized indices such as ABI (Ankle Brachial Index), TBI (Toe Brachial Index) and pulse wave velocity.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes automated calculations of standard indices (ABI, TBI, pulse wave velocity) and measurements (blood pressure, heart rate, pulse volume, heart sounds). There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning algorithms used for diagnosis or interpretation. The device automates established clinical methods.

No
The device is described as a "non-invasive diagnostic system designed to assist in the detection of peripheral vascular diseases." Its capabilities are measuring and calculating various physiological parameters, which are all diagnostic in nature, not therapeutic.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "a non-invasive diagnostic system designed to assist in the detection of peripheral vascular diseases."

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "non-invasive diagnostic system" capable of measuring blood pressures, heart rate, pulse volume recordings, and heart sounds, which requires physical hardware components like cuffs, sensors, and a processing unit.

Based on the provided information, the Fukuda Denshi VaSera model VS-1500AU is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The description of the VaSera VS-1500AU clearly states it is a non-invasive diagnostic system that measures parameters directly from the patient's body (blood pressure, heart rate, pulse volume, heart sounds). It does not involve the analysis of biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
  • The intended use and device description focus on direct physiological measurements and calculations based on those measurements. This is characteristic of in vivo diagnostic devices, not in vitro ones.

Therefore, the Fukuda Denshi VaSera model VS-1500AU falls under the category of in vivo diagnostic devices.

Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence:

The Fukuda Denshi Vasera Model 1500AU incorporates similar noninvasive technology as the predicate devices. The device uses the same technology as the Colin Medical VP-1000/2000 (K013434) for assessing lower extremity peripheral pressures and calculated indices such as Ankle-Brachial Index, Toe-Brachial Index and PWV values. The device also uses the same standard NIBP module as the Fukuda Denshi DS-5300 Patient Monitor (K964187) for assessing upper brachial blood pressures.

The device provides a means for interfacing with the patient, collecting specific physiological data, processing the data and generating a report of specific standard vascular indices to assist the clinician in the detection of peripheral vascular diseases.

The technological characteristics of the Vasera Model 1500AU do not affect the safety or efficacy of the device. Any safety issued raised by this software controlled medical device are wither the same issues already addressed by the predicate devices or are addressed by the Risk Management Report (See Exhibit 4.1) or in the system validation.

Testing:

ార్లు భారత్యశ

The Fukuda Denshi VaSera model VS-1500AU has been subjected to extensive safety, environmental and performance testing.
