No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on standard blood pressure measurement and data tracking via an app, without mentioning any AI/ML capabilities.

No
The device is intended for measuring blood pressure and pulse rate, which is a diagnostic/monitoring function, not a therapeutic one. It explicitly states it is "not to be used for the diagnosis of hypertension."

No

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that "The device is not to be used for the diagnosis of hypertension." It is designed to measure blood pressure, but explicitly states it is not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Blood Pressure Monitoring System (Model: P80)" which can be operated by the device itself or with an app. The performance studies also mention testing for electrical safety, EMC, shock and vibration, and biocompatibility of the cuff materials, all of which are associated with hardware components, not software-only devices.

Based on the provided information, 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 Fora Care Blood Pressure Monitoring System measures blood pressure and pulse rate using a non-invasive technique (a cuff on the upper arm). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for measuring blood pressure and pulse rate, not for analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a non-invasive medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

A blood pressure accuracy testing was performed to demonstrate the Fora Care Blood Pressure Monitoring System meets the same performance specifications as the predicate device. And the accuracy has been demonstrated in the predicate 510(k) submission according to the requirements of ANSI/AAMI SP10:2002. No clinical study was performed using the subject device since the subject device's blood pressure monitoring capability was duplicated from the predicate, K11216 submitted by TaiDoc.

Software validation was performed to verify and validate the system works functionally.

Testing performed included electrical safety, EMC, and shock and vibration test. The proposed device met the requirements of IEC/EN 60601-1, IEC/EN 60601-1-2 and IEC/EN 60601-1-11.

Biocompatibility testing was also performed. The materials of cuff met the requirements of ISO 10993-5 and 10993-10.

The Fora Care Blood Pressure Monitoring System has the same performance characteristics as the predicate device. Software verification and validation, and design validation confirmed that the performance, safety and effectiveness of the Fora Care Blood Pressure Monitoring System are substantial equivalent to the predicate device.

4. Intended Use

Fora Care Blood Pressure Monitoring System is a system designed to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate by using a non-invasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped on the upper arm. It is intended for individuals age 18 and above use at home and in clinical settings.

The device is not to be used for the diagnosis of hypertension or for testing on newborns.

same operating principle, same fundamental scientific technology, incorporate the same basic circuit design, incorporate the same materials, same shelf-life, packaged using the same materials, and manufactured by the same process. The modifications encompass: Linkage with TDLink BP App Remove irregular heart rate detection Without meter memory Modification of the devices physical appearance Labeling change due to the above modifications
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Fora Care Blood Pressure Monitoring System and the predicate device both use the oscillometric method within the software algorithm to determine the systolic, diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate with an inflatable arm cuff.

The major difference between the two devices is the application of TDLink BP App and physical appearance of device. The minor software change enables the device to connect with TDLink BP App in personal mobile. The memory unction of meter itself and irregular heart rate detection are removed. User may use the compatible TDLink BP App and review the test results on personal mobile.

8. Performance Characteristics:

A blood pressure accuracy testing was performed to demonstrate the Fora Care Blood Pressure Monitoring System meets the same performance specifications as the predicate device. And the accuracy has been demonstrated in the predicate 510(k) submission according to the requirements of ANSI/AAMI SP10:2002.
