Intended Use
The BRDSS-C is indicated for use in the care of adult patients and adolescent patients 17 years of age or older who weigh 40kg (88lbs) or more with 20% or more Total Body Surface Area (TBSA) burned, as a fluid resuscitation calculator for fluid recommendations. The BRDSS-C is intended to be initiated within 24 hours of the burn incident and completed by 72 hours post burn. The BRDSS-C is not indicated for use in patients who are less than 17 years of age.
Device Description
The Burn Resuscitation Decision Support System – Clinical (BRDSS-C) is a burn decision support software application for assisting healthcare professionals in managing fluid resuscitation of burn patients during the initial 24 - 72 hours post burn. The system provides hourly (or half-hour) fluid calculations and recommendations for patients with 20% or greater Total Body Surface Area (TBSA) burn injuries, in addition to providing users with a graphical user interface to display volume status, Intake and Output (I/O) volumes, and other relevant fluid balance information.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a software application for fluid resuscitation calculations and decision support, but there is no mention of AI or ML technologies being used in the device description or performance studies. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No.
The device is a decision support software application that provides fluid recommendations and calculations. It does not actively deliver or administer any therapy.

No
The device is a fluid resuscitation calculator and decision support software, which provides recommendations based on calculations, rather than diagnosing a medical condition.

Yes

The device description explicitly states it is a "burn decision support software application" and there is no mention of any accompanying hardware components. The performance studies focus on software verification and validation and human factors usability, further supporting its software-only nature.

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 BRDSS-C is a software application that acts as a fluid resuscitation calculator and decision support system. It uses patient information (like TBSA burn) to provide fluid recommendations. It does not analyze biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to assist healthcare professionals in managing fluid resuscitation, not to diagnose or detect a condition based on in vitro analysis.

Therefore, the BRDSS-C falls under the category of a clinical decision support system or medical software, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Non-clinical Performance Data

The BRDSS-C adheres to software requirements such as data intake validation, user warnings, alerts and messages, user interface requirements, functional requirements and error handling requirements. A human factors study was conducted and demonstrated that the software is compliant with human factors usability requirements. The BRDSS-C has passed software verification and validation as well as clinical user validation based on the FDA's Quality System Regulation requirements under 21 CFR Part 820.

Substantial Equivalence

BRDSS-C and the predicate device, BRDSS (Burn Navigator), are both software-based fluid calculators intended to be used by healthcare professionals to calculate resuscitation fluid volumes for burn patients during the initial 24 - 72 hours post burn. Both devices provide rate calculations based on the same burn decision support algorithm using patient physical (e.g. TBSA and body weight) and clinical data (e.g. intravenous fluid infused). The BRDSS (Burn Navigator) is operated on a tablet computer and the BRDSS-C is operated from a standard desktop computer. Physical differences between the two devices do not affect the burn decision support algorithm. Both devices are not intended for use in patients who weigh less than 44kg (88lbs).

Based upon the above information, the BRDSS-C is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of intended use and technical features; any differences do not raise new safety and effectiveness questions.
