Intended Use
The Bio Compression Systems Sequential Circulator SC-2008-OC/Sequential Circulator SC-2004-OC with associated garments are sequential, pneumatic compression devices intended for the primary or adjunctive treatment of primary or secondary lymphedema. The devices are also intended for the additional or alternate treatment of venous insufficiency and chronic venous stasis ulcers associated with venous insufficiency, as well as, general treatment for swelling of the extremities. The devices are intended for home or hospital use.
Device Description
The Bio Compression Systems, Inc. SC-2004-OC Sequential Circulator and SC-2008-OC Sequential Circulator, are pneumatic compression devices ('pumps') with associated compressible garment sleeves. The pumps are manually adjusted by the user to produce air pressure to inflate and deflate segmented inflatable chambers of garment sleeves. The garment sleeves are externally applied over affected extremities. The pumps consist of compressors capable of producing a maximum pressure of 80 mmHg and provide graduated or gradient pressurization to the chambers of the garments. The sequential inflation is applied distally to proximally with distal chambers inflated to a greater pressure than proximal ones. As each chamber is inflated, the pressure is held constant until all chambers are inflated, in order to prevent reverse gradient flow. Once all of the chambers are inflated, they are then simultaneously released and the cycle repeats. The user can adjust the Pressure Knob on the front of the device for desired pressure. Associated garments are available in a variety of standard sizes. The pumps can operate unilaterally and bilaterally as needed.

The device description details a manually adjusted pneumatic compression system with fixed inflation/deflation cycles and pressure gradients. There is no mention of adaptive algorithms, learning from data, or any other characteristics typically associated with AI/ML.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended for the "primary or adjunctive treatment of primary or secondary lymphedema," "treatment of venous insufficiency and chronic venous stasis ulcers," and "general treatment for swelling of the extremities," all of which are therapeutic applications.

No
The device is a pneumatic compression device used for treatment, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "pneumatic compression device ('pumps') with associated compressible garment sleeves," which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a sequential, pneumatic compression device used for the treatment of conditions like lymphedema, venous insufficiency, and swelling of the extremities. These are all conditions treated by applying external physical pressure, not by analyzing samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a "pump" and "garment sleeves" that apply air pressure externally to the extremities. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples from the human body.
    • Providing information about a patient's health status based on sample analysis.
    • Using reagents or assays.
    • Measuring biomarkers or other biological indicators.

The device is a therapeutic device that applies physical pressure to the body for treatment purposes.

Summary of Performance Studies

Before being released to market, every device is tested and must meet all performance specifications. In addition to aesthetic acceptance criteria, functional testing includes electrical leakage, pressure adjustment, inflation pressure in each chamber, air pressure display accuracy, and inflation/deflation cycle times. The results demonstrate comparable inflation cycle profiles (rise times, inflation pressures, deflation times, and cycle times) between the applicant and predicate devices.

Proposed Device Description

The Bio Compression Systems, Inc. SC-2004-OC Sequential Circulator and SC-2008-OC Sequential Circulator, are pneumatic compression devices ('pumps') with associated compressible garment sleeves. The pumps are manually adjusted by the user to produce air pressure to inflate and deflate segmented inflatable chambers of garment sleeves. The garment sleeves are externally applied over affected extremities. The pumps consist of compressors capable of producing a maximum pressure of 80 mmHg and provide graduated or gradient pressurization to the chambers of the garments. The sequential inflation is applied distally to proximally with distal chambers inflated to a greater pressure than proximal ones.

Sequential Circulator

Systems, Inc.

As each chamber is inflated, the pressure is held constant until all chambers are inflated, in order to prevent reverse gradient flow. Once all of the chambers are inflated, they are then simultaneously released and the cycle repeats. The user can adjust the Pressure Knob on the front of the device for desired pressure.

Associated garments are available in a variety of standard sizes. The pumps can operate unilaterally and bilaterally as needed.

Indications For Use

The Bio Compression Systems Sequential Circulator SC-2008-0C/Sequential Circulator SC-2004-0C with associated garments are sequential, pneumatic compression devices intended for the primary or adjunctive treatment of primary or secondary lymphedema. The devices are also intended for the additional or alternate treatment of venous insufficiency and chronic venous stasis ulcers associated with venous insufficiency, as well as, general treatment for swelling of the extremities. The devices are intended for home or hospital use.

Description of Device Modifications/Technological Characteristics:

The Sequential Circulators SC-2004-OC and SC-2008-OC are technologically similar to the predicate devices, SC-3008 Sequential Circulator (K043423) and SC-2004 Sequential Circulator (Preamendment Device). The modification was the removal of the pressurization display gauge from the front of the device. The Pressure Knob, used to set the desired pressurization, remains substantially equivalent to that of the predicate device. The removal of the display was ease of use for the end user. Once the desired pressure is indicated by setting the Pressure Knob, the end user does not need to read any displays, as the pressurization is consistent with the desired setting.

The modification to the subject devices has not altered the fundamental technology of the predicate devices.

Performance Data

Before being released to market, every device is tested and must meet all performance specifications. In addition to aesthetic acceptance criteria, functional testing includes electrical leakage, pressure adjustment, inflation pressure in each chamber, air pressure display accuracy, and inflation/deflation cycle times. The results demonstrate comparable inflation cycle profiles (rise times, inflation pressures, deflation times, and cycle times) between the applicant and predicate devices.

Statement of Substantial Equivalence:

Based upon risk management, safety & performance testing, compliance with voluntary standards, and comparison to predicate devices, the Sequential Circulators SC-2004-OC and SC-2008-OC, are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices SC-3008 Sequential Circulator and the SC-2004 Sequential Circulator. The modified devices do not introduce any new potential safety risks and are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
