Intended Use
PBSV4.1 bladder scanner is intended to project ultrasound energy through the lower abdomen of the nonpregnant patient to obtain an image of the bladder and uses that image to calculate the bladder volume non-invasively. It is contraindicated for fetal use and for use on pregnant patients. And it should not be used by those who are allergic to coupling agent and who have abdomen wound and skin disease.
Device Description
Palm bladder scanner is a medical device with high performance combined with modern B-mode ultrasound technology and computer technology. The device consists of host and probe, it can speedily complete the detection of bladder area through scan of probe connected with the device, and transmit B ultrasound echo signal detected to embedded computer system after processing before computer identifies the edge of image and volume calculation, realizes the measurement of bladder volume, displays and prints out the relative information through LED/built-in printer.
More Information

No
The description mentions "computer identifies the edge of image and volume calculation" which is standard image processing, not necessarily AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, neural networks, or any related terms. The performance studies listed are standard safety and performance tests, not studies evaluating AI/ML performance.

No
The device is described as a diagnostic tool used to measure bladder volume, not to provide therapy or treatment.

Yes
The device is described as "intended to project ultrasound energy through the lower abdomen of the nonpregnant patient to obtain an image of the bladder and uses that image to calculate the bladder volume non-invasively." The calculation of bladder volume provides information about a patient's condition, which aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device. Furthermore, performance studies mention tests for "medical diagnostic ultrasonic fields" and "ultrasonic medical diagnostic and monitoring equipment," explicitly indicating its diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of "host and probe," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

No, this device 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.
  • Device Function: The PBSV4.1 bladder scanner uses ultrasound energy applied externally to the body to image the bladder and calculate its volume. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it "project[s] ultrasound energy through the lower abdomen... to obtain an image of the bladder and uses that image to calculate the bladder volume non-invasively." This is an external imaging and measurement process.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by explaining it uses "B-mode ultrasound technology" and "scan of probe connected with the device" to detect signals and process images.

The device is a medical imaging device, specifically an ultrasound system, used for non-invasive measurement of bladder volume. It does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 892.1560 Ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system.

(a)
Identification. An ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system is a device intended to project a pulsed sound beam into body tissue to determine the depth or location of the tissue interfaces and to measure the duration of an acoustic pulse from the transmitter to the tissue interface and back to the receiver. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A biopsy needle guide kit intended for use with an ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
