The summary describes a vital signs monitor that transmits data to medical professionals for interpretation. There is no mention of the device itself performing any analysis or interpretation using AI/ML.
No.
The device is intended to aid with diagnosis by collecting and transmitting vital signs data, not to provide therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "Tempus IC is intended to aid with the diagnosis of a person presenting as unwell or sick when they are in a location remote from immediate medical assistance."
No
The device description clearly states "The TempusIC™ is an advanced multi-parameter vital signs monitor" and describes it as a "highly robust package" with integrated hardware components like a voice link and video camera, in addition to receiving data from external wireless modules. This indicates it is a hardware device with accompanying software.
Based on the provided information, the Tempus IC device itself is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The Tempus IC measures vital signs directly from the patient (blood pressure, SpO2, pulse rate, respiration rate, ETCO2, ECG, temperature). While it receives data from a blood glucose meter (which is an IVD), the Tempus IC itself is not performing the in vitro diagnostic test.
- The intended use focuses on monitoring vital signs and transmitting that data. The purpose is to aid in diagnosis by providing real-time physiological information to medical professionals, not by analyzing a biological sample.
The Tempus IC is a multi-parameter vital signs monitor. It's a medical device used for patient monitoring and data transmission, not for performing diagnostic tests on biological specimens.

enables users to receive voice, vital signs data, and still video pictures from TempusICTM devices located anywhere in the world.
The TempusNET™ system can be used by commercial response centre service providers or by individuals or organisations wishing to provide their own internal service
It also provides a synchronised user interface, and remote control of the TempusIC™.
TempusNET™ also supports a full patient records database.
Intended Use
The TempusIC™ Patient Monitor is intended to be used when a medical situation arises at a location remote from readily available medical expertise. Situations demanding use of the TempusIC™ Patient Monitor can occur at remote land locations on private yachts while sailing at considerable distances from land, and during flight on commercial /private jets as well as in other situations.
The Tempus!C™ Patient Monitor is intended to be used by trained non-experts upon people presenting as unwell. It is designed with the most ease of use for the operator so that it can be used quickly, reliably, with minimum training and with little or no support from medical staff. This allows the TempusIC™ Patient Monitor ikle of he capper. Tomment or also connected to the TempusNET™ server system.
In the latter mode, the TempusIC™ Patient Monitor connects through TempusNET™ server system to a sister device, called the TempusNET™ monitoring station allowing the recorded data to be viewed, stored and manipulated by trained medical staff.
The TempusNETTM monitoring station comprises a normal, commercial grade PC which is dedicated to running the software that enables it to communicate with the TempusIC™ Patient Monitor. The TempusNET™ monitoring station is installed at a Response Centre (typically an emergency room within a hospital) and is operated by experts from the hospital staff.
The operator at the Response Centre is able to receive voice calls and data on the patient's condition for assessment and consequently advise on an appropriate course of action. Such action may include advice on treatments to stabilize the condition, or instructions to return to land or divert from the planned journey, if the patient is at sea or in the air.
Indications for Use
Tempus IC is intended to aid with the diagnosis of a person presenting as unwell or sick when they are in a location remote from immediate medical assistance. The device allows the User to take vital signs data from a patient and to transmit that data to medical professionals located at the response centre elsewhere. Typical examples are remote land, sea or air locations.

Predicate Devices
The Tempus IC Patient Monitor is predicated on itself (as cleared to market without the ability to receive data from the thermometer or the MyGlucoHealth device). The clearance for the Tempus IC was granted under K082718.
The use of the tympanic thermometer is predicated on the clearance of the same thermometer with the Tempus IC Professional (granted under K101264).
The use of the MyGlucoHealth glucometer is predicated on the clearance of the same glucometer when it was cleared in its own right under K081703.
Operation of the device remains the same except with the addition of the two wireless peripherals, both of which have been cleared to market in the same form in previous applications which are substantially equivalent to their use with the Tempus IC.
Evidence of Conformity to Essential Principles
The device has been shown to conform to the essential principles for safety and performance defined in guidance prepared by the Global Harmonization Task Force Study Group1 (GHTF/SG1/N14R9:2005), with supporting evidence prepared in the summary technical documentation (STED) format recommended in final version of GHTF guidance (SG1/N011: 2008).
The design of this device utilises currently available (OEM) technology found in many legally marketed devices. In terms of measurement performance, the Tempus 2000 is effectively identical to the devices that incorporate the same OEM technology.
Testing
The Tempus IC Professional uses currently available (OEM) technology found in many legally marketed devices.
