Intended Use
Infinity Explorer software enables the Patient Vicinity Workstation (PVW) to function as the secondary display for physiological parameters received from the primary Infinity modular monitors. Infinity Explorer displays only visual parameter alarm data for the connected modular monitor and does not generate audible alarms. Audible and visual alarms are available at the primary Infinity modular monitors. The device is intended to be used in an environment where patient care is provided by healthcare professionals such as physicians, nurses, and technicians trained on the use of the device, who will determine when use of the device is indicated based upon their professional assessment of the patient's medical condition. The device is intended for use with adult, pediatric, and neonatal populations.
Device Description
The Infinity Explorer software runs on a specialized medical grade Patient Vicinity Workstation (PVW) and allows the user to extend the viewing capability of the bedside monitor and integrate additional patient information originating from various sources throughout the hospital on a single display. Additional patient information can reside remotely on a clinical information system, HIS, Web, Lab Department, etc. Specifically, the Infinity Explorer software extends the real-time viewing capabilities of the primary patient monitors that are part of the Infinity modular monitoring series. Infinity Explorer software runs on a dedicated Infinity C700 for IT patient vicinity workstation. The workstation monitors are touch screen computer workstations that allow you to interact with menu functions. However, a keyboard and mouse may also be used to interact with the display. The patient connected bedside monitor is the primary monitoring device and the workstation monitor with Infinity Explorer software is the secondary display monitor. All data to and from the bedside patient monitor is transmitted to or received from Infinity Explorer software over the Infinity Network. Infinity Explorer software can also provide control back to the connected bedside patient monitor. There are no audible alarms on the patient vicinity workstation running Infinity Explorer software. However, there are visual alarms initiated at the primary monitor that present on the workstation display running Infinity Explorer software.

No
The summary describes software that extends the viewing capabilities of a primary monitor and integrates information from various hospital systems. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device functions as a secondary display for physiological parameters and integrates additional patient information. It does not actively treat or diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device functions as a secondary display for physiological parameters from a primary monitor and integrates additional patient information. It does not independently collect or analyze patient data to provide a diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states that the software runs on a "specialized medical grade Patient Vicinity Workstation (PVW)" and a "dedicated Infinity C700 for IT patient vicinity workstation." The performance studies also include electrical safety, EMC, mechanical, and environmental testing on the PVW, indicating the device includes hardware components beyond just the software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The description of the Infinity Explorer software and Patient Vicinity Workstation clearly states that it displays physiological parameters received from primary patient monitors. This data is collected directly from the patient, not from a specimen taken from the patient.
  • The intended use is for displaying real-time physiological data. The purpose is to extend the viewing capabilities of bedside monitors and integrate other patient information for healthcare professionals to monitor the patient's condition. This is a monitoring function, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
  • There is no mention of analyzing biological samples. The device description focuses on software running on a workstation to display data from other medical devices.

Therefore, the Infinity Explorer software and PVW fall under the category of patient monitoring devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

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

Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by the FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." Alarm testing as it applies to a secondary monitor was also performed to support the partial compliance to IEC60601-1-8:2006 + A1:2012 "General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance - Collateral Standard: General Requirements, Tests and Guidance for Alarm Systems in Medical Electrical Equipment and Medical Electrical Systems." The software for this device was considered as a "major" level of concern, since the software device provides vital signs monitoring and alarms for potentially life threatening situations in which medical intervention is necessary.
