The summary describes a system for collecting, storing, and transmitting patient data from various medical devices. While it includes features like setting thresholds for flagging readings and automated communication (IVR), these functions are based on pre-defined rules and "canned" messages, not on learning from data or making predictions. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the text.
No
The device is a remote patient monitoring system that collects and transmits data from other medical devices; it does not directly provide therapy or treatment. The "Intended Use" explicitly states, "The MedApps 2.0 - Remote Patient Monitoring System is not intended for diagnosis or as a substitute for medical care."
No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The MedApps 2.0 - Remote Patient Monitoring System is not intended for diagnosis or as a substitute for medical care, and it is not intended to provide real time data."
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components (MedApps HealthPAL hardware, MedApps HealthAIR hardware) which are integral to the system's function of receiving, storing, and transmitting data from other medical devices. While there are significant software components (firmware, HealthCOM software, IVR software), the system is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the MedApps 2.0 - Remote Patient Monitoring System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Definition of IVD: An IVD device is a medical device 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.
- MedApps System Function: The MedApps system collects data from external medical devices (glucose meters, scales, blood pressure monitors, pulse oximeters) that measure physiological parameters. It then transmits this data to a server for review by healthcare professionals.
- Lack of Sample Analysis: The system itself does not perform any analysis on biological samples. It acts as a data collection and transmission hub for data generated by other devices.
- Intended Use Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" explicitly states: "The MedApps 2.0 - Remote Patient Monitoring System is not intended for diagnosis or as a substitute for medical care, and it is not intended to provide real time data." This further reinforces that it's not performing diagnostic tests.
Therefore, the MedApps 2.0 - Remote Patient Monitoring System falls under the category of a remote patient monitoring system, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
