Intended Use
The A-PULSE CASPal+ and MC3100+ Monitors are intended for use on patients who are eighteen (18) years and older, and for the CASPal+, have a palpable radial pulse. Brachial Blood pressure, CASP and pulse rate readings obtained using the A-PULSE CASPal+ and MC3100+ Monitors are intended for use by qualified healthcare personnel as an aid to diagnosis and treatment.
Device Description
The HealthSTATS A-PULSE CASPal® and MC3100™ are standalone noninvasive blood pressure monitors which are designed to measure (1) conventional oscillometric blood pressure with a brachial cuff and (2) Central Aortic Systolic Pressure (CASP) and other indices based on arterial tonometry at the radial artery of the wrist. The CASPal®+ Monitor is comprised of four main elements: - System embedded processing unit. - Integrated oscillometric blood pressure module for calibration (identical to the BPCalibrator [listed device K041546], also cleared iin CASPal device K101002). - Wrist sensor module for acquistion of central aortic systolic pressure (CASP) via radial arterial tonometry at the wrist [cleared accessory and method K101002]. - Bluetooth® wireless communications module. The MC3100™* is a reduced feature set of the CASPal®* which only offers the oscillometric blood pressure measurement and not the CASP measurement, but is otherwise identical. my-BP™ PC software may be used with either device to store and display blood pressure and pulse rate measurements on a suitably equipped computer.
More Information

No
The summary describes standard blood pressure measurement techniques (oscillometric and tonometry) and data storage/transfer capabilities. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any algorithms that would suggest learning or adaptive capabilities. The performance studies rely on predicate device data, not new data that would typically be used to train or validate an AI/ML model.

No.
This device is for diagnosis and monitoring of blood pressure, not for therapy or treatment.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the readings obtained from the monitors "are intended for use by qualified healthcare personnel as an aid to diagnosis and treatment." This directly indicates a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a system embedded processing unit, integrated oscillometric blood pressure module, wrist sensor module, and Bluetooth wireless communications module. While there is associated PC software, the primary medical device is a physical monitor.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The A-PULSE CASPal+ and MC3100+ Monitors measure blood pressure and pulse rate directly from the patient's body using non-invasive methods (cuff on the arm, sensor on the wrist). They do not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide blood pressure and pulse rate readings as an aid to diagnosis and treatment, which is a common function of non-invasive physiological monitoring devices, not IVDs.

The device is a non-invasive physiological monitor.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The A-PULSE CASPal+ Monitor is a compact standalone monitor that combines two methods of blood pressure measurement:

  • Conventional oscillometric blood pressure via a brachial cuff on the upper arm, and .
  • Radial arterial pulse acquisition via a wrist-mounted tonometer sensor.

The A-PULSE CASPal+ Monitor first measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate using the oscillometric method, and then acquires the radial arterial pulse waveform to derive the Central Aortic Systolic Pressure (CASP) non-invasively.

The MC3100+ monitor measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate via the oscillometric method via a brachial cuff at the upper arm.

The monitors have a non-volatile memory to store and recall measurements, and the ability to transfer measurement data via Bluetooth wireless communications to other suitably equipped electronic devices, such as a PC with HealthSTATS.my-BP PC software.

my-BP PC software is used in conjunction with the HealthSTATS A-PULSE CASPal+ and MC3100+ Monitors to store and display blood pressure data obtained from the monitors.

The A-PULSE CASPal+ and MC3100+ Monitors are intended for use on patients who are eighteen (18) years and older, and for the CASPal+, have a palpable radial pulse.

Brachial Blood pressure, CASP and pulse rate readings obtained using the A-PULSE CASPal+ and MC3100+ Monitors are intended for use by qualified healthcare personnel as an aid to diagnosis and treatment.

Intended use: (5)

The A-PULSE CASPal® and MC3100™* Monitors are intended to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate via the oscillometric method with cuff. The A-PULSE CASPal® utilizes a wrist sensor to obtain the radial pulse waveform to derive central aortic systolic pressure (CASP) and other waveform indices. Both monitors utilize Bluetooth wireless technology to transfer measurements to HealthSTATS my-BP™ PC Software or other suitable devices.

Cardiovascular disease remains among the leading causes of death worldwide. Hypertension assessment is one of the primary factors in the evaluation of cardiovascular disease. Assessment of CASP may improve the management of patients with elevated cardiovascular risk.

Indications for Use:

The A-PULSE CASPal+ Monitor is a compact standalone monitor that combines two methods of blood pressure measurement:

  • · Conventional oscillometric blood pressure via a brachial cuff on the upper arm, and
  • . Radial arterial pulse acquisition via a wrist-mounted tonometer sensor.
