Intended Use
The HAMILTON-C3 ventilator is intended to provide positive pressure ventilatory support to adults, pediatrics, infants, and neonates. Intended areas of use: - In the intensive care ward or in the recovery room. - During transfer of ventilated patients within the hospital. The HAMILTON-C3 ventilator is a medical device intended for use by qualified, trained personnel under the direction of a physician and within the limits of its stated technical specifications.
Device Description
The HAMILTON-C3 has been designed to ventilate adult and pediatric patients in the critical care environment. With optional support, the HAMILTON-C3 is also able to ventilate infants and neonates. The HAMILTON-C3 ventilator uses the same graphical user interface (GUI) used by the predicate HAMILTON-C2, which features a touchscreen "Ventilation Cockpit". This provides the exact information that the user needs and helps focus on what is important. In addition, the HAMILTON-C3 includes the ASV ventilation-mode, which automatically applies lung-protective strategies, reduces the risk of operator error, and promotes early weaning. The HAMILTON-C3 has been designed with built-in batteries and a turbine thereby giving the user maximum independence and flexibility to accompany a patient everywhere. The HAMIL-TON-C3 offers the same ventilation modes as the HAMILTON-C2, which provides for both full and partial ventilatory support. 1. The HAMILTON-C3 offers all the conventional modes, as well as advanced invasive and non-invasive ventilation modes: ASV, (S)CMV+, SIMV+, PCV+, SPONT, APRV, DuoPAP, NIV, NIV-ST, nCPAP-PS, PSIMV+, and PSIMV+ with IntelliSync. 2. All 41 monitoring parameters can be trended over 1, 6, 12, 24, and 72 hours. 3. The ability to turn off the Apnea alarm in the nCPAP-PS mode. 4. The HAMILTON-C3 includes a 12.1" wide-screen monitor.

Unknown
The description mentions "ASV ventilation-mode, which automatically applies lung-protective strategies, reduces the risk of operator error, and promotes early weaning." While "automatically applies" suggests some level of algorithmic decision-making, the summary does not explicitly state that this functionality is based on AI or ML. It could be a rule-based system or another type of automation. The lack of explicit mention of AI/ML terms or details about training/test data makes it impossible to definitively confirm the presence of AI/ML.

Yes
Explanation: The device provides positive pressure ventilatory support, which is a form of medical treatment to assist or replace breathing for patients, making it a therapeutic device.

No

This device is a ventilator, which provides respiratory support, and monitors physiological parameters. While monitoring involves data collection, its primary function is therapeutic (providing ventilation) rather than diagnostic (identifying or characterizing a disease or condition).

No

The device description explicitly mentions hardware components such as a turbine, built-in batteries, and a 12.1" wide-screen monitor, indicating it is a physical medical device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

Based on the provided text, the HAMILTON-C3 ventilator is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide positive pressure ventilatory support to patients. This is a direct medical intervention on the patient's respiratory system, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical and software features of a ventilator, such as ventilation modes, monitoring parameters, and portability. These are all related to supporting breathing, not analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD device, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on sample analysis

The HAMILTON-C3 is clearly described as a medical device used for direct patient care and support.

The only difference between the predicate HAMILTON-C2 and the HAMILTON-C3 is the screen size. The HAMILTON-C2 has a 10.4" screen size. Alternatively, the HAMILTON-C3 has a 12.1" screen size. Additionally, because of the extra space from the larger and wider screen, the HAMILTON-C3 displays up to 4 waveforms simultaneously, as well as all the 7 different alarm-limitation parameters, while the HAMILTON-C2 can only display 2 waveforms and the alarm-limitation parameters are divided in two different windows. In addition, the I:E values are now shown on the main screen of the HAMILTON-C3 on the lower left-hand corner.
