The description mentions a "FORE-SIGHT algorithm" but provides no details suggesting it uses AI or ML techniques. The performance studies focus on traditional validation methods and substantial equivalence to predicate devices, without mentioning AI/ML-specific evaluation metrics or training/test sets.
No
The device is described as an "adjunct monitor" to measure blood oxygen saturation, not to treat or prevent a medical condition.
Yes
Explanation: The device is intended for use as an "adjunct monitor of absolute regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood...in individuals at risk for reduced flow or no-flow ischemic states," which indicates its purpose in providing information for diagnosis or to assess a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a monitor unit, preamplifier assembly, and sensor, which are hardware components. The software is part of a larger hardware system.
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 FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute Tissue Oximeter is a noninvasive device that measures hemoglobin oxygen saturation directly in the tissue under the sensor. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes monitoring tissue oxygen saturation in individuals at risk of ischemic states. This is a physiological measurement, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
Therefore, the FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute Tissue Oximeter falls under the category of a noninvasive physiological monitoring device, not an IVD.

Device Description
The FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute Tissue Oximeter measures hemoglobin under the Sensor, allowing the clinician to continuously and accurately determine absolute levels of blood oxygenation saturation in the tissue (StO2).
The Oximeter consists of a monitor unit, preamplifier assembly, and sensor. The sensor uses multiple wavelengths in the range of 660 to 900 nm to precisely measure light absorption in tissue. Sensors are sized to provide targeted penetration depths appropriate for the tissue and patient populations of interest. The monitor unit controls the measurement sequence, generating the sensor LED currents and processing the detected light signals after amplification by the dual-channel preamplifier assembly. The FORE-SIGHT algorithm determines the StO2 values for the tissue under the sensor from the light absorption values and measured patient characteristics. The monitor unit provides simultaneous measurements on up to four sensors with both numeric and real-time graphical display formats.
The monitor unit is a mains-powered device with a field-replaceable battery backup module. A touchscreen user interface allows configuration of the Oximeter including audible, on-screen, and dedicated visual alarm indicators. The monitor display can be replicated for simultaneous remote viewing through an auxiliary VGA video output. Measurement data can be exported through various interfaces such as USB, RS-232 serial or wireless communications.

When used with large sensors, the FORE-SIGHT ELITE Oximeter is indicated for use on adults and transitional adolescents >40 kg.
FORE-SIGHT Monitor Technology Compared to Predicate Devices
The FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute Tissue Oximeter compares substantially to the cited predicate devices in that they use fundamentally the same optical operating principle, called multidistance diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. All cited monitors use light to examine a crosssection tissue microvasculature (a mixed bed of arterioles, capillaries and venules). The FORE-SIGHT Elite Monitor and predicate devices analyze the light that is returned after having passed through tissues. The spectroscopic analysis determines concentrations of hemoglobin in its oxygenated and deoxygenated states. All cited monitors calculate oxygen saturation which reflects the percentage of oxygenated hemoglobin in the sampled tissue.

The FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute Tissue Oximeter compares substantially to the predicates. All have 4-channel capability, an LED light source, similar user interface features and the benefits of portability.
Non-Clinical Performance Testing to Demonstrate Substantial Equivalence
The FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute tissue Oximeter has successfully undergone extensive performance, safety, electromagnetic, clinical, software and environmental testing to ensure it has been found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. In addition to the above laboratory tests, CAS has conducted a full program of individual hardware, software, systems verification and validation studies of the FORE-SIGHT monitor and sensors.
Clinical Testing to Show Substantial Equivalence
The FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute Tissue Oximeter has successfully undergone extensive clinical validation for the indicated use. The premarket notification cites a validation report: Validation of the CAS Medical System's FORE-SIGHT Elite™ Absolute Tissue Oximeter for Somatic Tissue Oxygen Saturation (StO2%) in Adult and Transitional Adolescent Subjects.
Conclusions Drawn from Clinical and Non-Clinical Testing
Clinical evaluation, safety testing and software validation demonstrate the FORE-SIGHT Elite Absolute Tissue Oximeter is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
