The Packet Decoder Process (PDP) is indicated for use as a prescription software device to receive MDDS digital data packets and decode, collate and deliver data to a Class I, MDDS, Enterprise Service Bus according to a proprietary scheme defined by Zephyr Technology.
Device Description
The Packet Decoder Process (PDP) receives digital data that is transmitted by BioHarness 3.0, K 1 1 3045 in a proprietary structure. PDP receives this complex array of packet coded data. A decoding scheme is used to decode data and organize for presentation and access by Class I MDDS devices. The Packet Decoder Process is manufactured by Zephyr Technology Corporation. This software is loaded and executed in an MDDS operating systems in an MDDS computer. This complex process is defined by a proprietary scheme: Zephyr's General Comms Link Specification.

No
The description focuses on decoding and organizing data according to a proprietary scheme, with no mention of learning, adaptation, or AI/ML terms.

No.
The README states that the device receives and decodes data from a medical device and delivers it to an Enterprise Service Bus. This describes data processing and management, not a direct therapeutic function or intervention on a patient.

No
The device primarily decodes and delivers data from another medical device (BioHarness 3.0, K113045) to an Enterprise Service Bus. It does not perform a diagnostic function itself, but rather processes data for other Class I MDDS devices.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "This software is loaded and executed in an MDDS operating systems in an MDDS computer." and describes its function as receiving, decoding, and organizing digital data packets. There is no mention of any hardware component being part of the device itself.

Based on the provided information, the Packet Decoder Process (PDP) 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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • PDP's Function: The PDP's intended use and description clearly state that it receives and decodes digital data packets transmitted by the BioHarness 3.0. The BioHarness 3.0 is a device that likely collects physiological data from a person (though the exact nature of the data isn't explicitly stated as being from a bodily sample).
  • Data Source: The data processed by the PDP originates from the BioHarness 3.0, which is a device interacting with a person, not from a sample taken from a person.
  • Purpose: The PDP's purpose is to process and deliver this data to an Enterprise Service Bus for access by other MDDS devices. This is a data management and processing function, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.

In summary, the PDP is a software device that handles data from a medical device (BioHarness 3.0), but it does not perform any analysis on biological samples for diagnostic purposes. Therefore, it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

INTENDED USE

The BioHarness 3-M1 Packet Decoder Process (PDP) is intended for decoding digital data packets that were coded in the BioHarness 3.0 Packet Encoder Processor (PEP). The decoding process receives data from an MDDS data transmission system then decodes, collates and drives MDDS registers on the Enterprise Service Bus. This process is defined by the proprietary scheme: Zephyr's General Comms Link Specification, version 1.44 dated 11 June 2009 Part Number #9700.0028 (and subsequent revisions).

The scientific concept on which this device is based is the principle that complexity and precise structure of packet data give rise to a repeatable mechanism to "pack up" digital data and transmit it using a qualified communication system. At the receive side, a scheme decodes or "un-pack" this data and delivers it to MDDS registers. This device functions by executing programmed commands written in the Java language. The calibration is established by the factory and yields accurate and calibrated signals that can maintain calibration over its useful life.

Substantial Equivalence

Zephyr Technology Corporation has determined that the Packet Decoder Process (PDP) is substantially equivalent to the performance to the predicate device. The differences between these systems are incidental and not significant. Both this device and the predicates use a similar technological characteristics and principles.

Safety and Effectiveness

This device is safe and effective for the application for which it is intended and has been tested to confirm safety and efficacy. A series of factory tests are conducted to verify the intended signals are accurate and can maintain calibration over its useful life. The Packet Decoder Process (PDP) has benefited from design, development, testing and production procedures that conform to Quality Systems.

Zephyr Technology Corporation continues to search all appropriate sources for information relating to safety and effectiveness and maintains an in-house reporting device to identify adverse safety and effectiveness information and as such, applicable data is recorded for this product.
