Yes.
The device measures hematocrit, oxygen saturation, and percent change in blood volume to provide data that clinicians use to intervene in the treatment of dialysis patients, which are diagnostic measurements for patient management.
No
The device description explicitly states that the Crit-Line IV System is comprised of the Crit-Line IV monitor, the Crit-Line Clip (CLiC) sensor, and the Crit-Line Clip Blood Chamber, indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the Crit-Line IV System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Crit-Line IV System Function: The Crit-Line IV System measures hematocrit, oxygen saturation, and percent change in blood volume non-invasively and in real-time during dialysis treatment. This means it's measuring these parameters directly from the patient's blood flow within the body, not analyzing a sample taken from the body.
- Method of Measurement: The description mentions a "Crit-Line Clip (CLiC) sensor" and a "Crit-Line Clip Blood Chamber." While there's a blood chamber, the measurement is described as "non-invasively" and "real-time," suggesting the sensor interacts with the blood flow directly during the dialysis process, rather than analyzing a collected sample.
Therefore, the Crit-Line IV System is a non-invasive physiological monitoring device used during dialysis, not an IVD device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Crit-Line IV System is used to non-invasively to measure hematocrit, oxygen saturation and percent change in blood volume. The Crit-Line Clip (CLiC) measures hematocrit, percent change in blood volume and oxygen saturation in real time for application in the treatment of dialysis patients with the intended purpose of providing a more effective treatment for both the dialysis patient and the dial. Based on the data that the monitor provides, the clinician/nurse, under physician direction, intervenes (i.e. increases the rate at which fluid is removed from the blood) in order to remove the maximum amount of fluid from the dialysis patient experiencing the common symptoms of dialysis which include nausea, cramping and vomiting.

Device Description
The intended use of the Crit-Line IV System is as a continuous real-time blood monitoring system for displaying information measured by the CLiC sensor, including hematocrit, oxygen saturation, and percent change in blood volume. The Crit-Line IV System is comprised of the Crit-Line IV monitor (the subject of this submission), the Crit-Line Clip (CLiC) sensor, and the Crit-Line Clip Blood Chamber. The touchscreen interface and display of the Crit-Line IV monitor is used with the hardware and software of the CLiC sensor, which is a separate component of the Crit-Line Clip (CLiC) Monitor, K121599. Information displayed on the Crit-Line IV monitor may be viewed real-time during a dialysis treatment. There are additional display features incorporated into the Crit-Line IV System, which are similar to that of the Crit-Line III system (K972470) and the 2008T Hemodialysis Machine with (optional) CLiC (K131908). For this reason, the Crit-Line Clip Monitor (CLiC: K121599), is the predominant predicate and the 2008T Hemodialysis Machine with (optional) CLiC (K131908) and the Crit-Line III (K972470) are reference predicate devices.
The Crit-Line IV System consists of a monitor running display software for data measured by the CLiC sensor. The data is sent as USB serial signals from the CLiC sensor to the monitor. The Crit-Line IV monitor connects with the CLiC sensor via the USB computer interface. The CLiC sensor connects to the external transparent section of a single-use Crit-Line Clip Blood Chamber. The Crit-Line Clip Blood Chamber provides in-line optic measurement access (non-invasive) to blood via connection to the dialysis tubing set. The Crit-Line IV monitor displays and stores data generated by the CLiC sensor.

§ 876.5820 Hemodialysis system and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A hemodialysis system and accessories is a device that is used as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions and that consists of an extracorporeal blood system, a conventional dialyzer, a dialysate delivery system, and accessories. Blood from a patient flows through the tubing of the extracorporeal blood system and accessories to the blood compartment of the dialyzer, then returns through further tubing of the extracorporeal blood system to the patient. The dialyzer has two compartments that are separated by a semipermeable membrane. While the blood is in the blood compartment, undesirable substances in the blood pass through the semipermeable membrane into the dialysate in the dialysate compartment. The dialysate delivery system controls and monitors the dialysate circulating through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer.(1) The extracorporeal blood system and accessories consists of tubing, pumps, pressure monitors, air foam or bubble detectors, and alarms to keep blood moving safely from the blood access device and accessories for hemodialysis (§ 876.5540) to the blood compartment of the dialyzer and back to the patient.
(2) The conventional dialyzer allows a transfer of water and solutes between the blood and the dialysate through the semipermeable membrane. The semipermeable membrane of the conventional dialyzer has a sufficiently low permeability to water that an ultrafiltration controller is not required to prevent excessive loss of water from the patient's blood. This conventional dialyzer does not include hemodialyzers with the disposable inserts (Kiil type) (§ 876.5830) or dialyzers of high permeability (§ 876.5860).
(3) The dialysate delivery system consists of mechanisms that monitor and control the temperature, conductivity, flow rate, and pressure of the dialysate and circulates dialysate through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer. The dialysate delivery system includes the dialysate concentrate for hemodialysis (liquid or powder) and alarms to indicate abnormal dialysate conditions. This dialysate delivery system does not include the sorbent regenerated dialysate delivery system for hemodialysis (§ 876.5600), the dialysate delivery system of the peritoneal dialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5630), or the controlled dialysate delivery system of the high permeability hemodialysis system § 876.5860).
(4) Remote accessories to the hemodialysis system include the unpowered dialysis chair without a scale, the powered dialysis chair without a scale, the dialyzer holder set, dialysis tie gun and ties, and hemodialysis start/stop tray.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards) for hemodialysis systems and all accessories directly associated with the extracorporeal blood system and the dialysate delivery system.(2) Class I for other accessories of the hemodialysis system remote from the extracorporeal blood system and the dialysate delivery system, such as the unpowered dialysis chair, hemodialysis start/stop tray, dialyzer holder set, and dialysis tie gun and ties. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
