The document describes a monitoring system with sensors and software for data display and analysis, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used in the data processing or interpretation.
No.
This device is for continuous, noninvasive patient monitoring of physiological parameters like carbon dioxide tension, oxygen saturation, and pulse rate, not for providing therapy or treatment.
Yes
The device continuously monitors physiological parameters like carbon dioxide tension, oxygen saturation, and pulse rate, which are used to assess a patient's medical condition. The "Intended Use" section explicitly states it's for "continuous, noninvasive patient monitoring."
No
The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a standalone monitor (SDM), digital sensors, connecting cables, and accessories, in addition to the optional V-STATS PC software. This indicates the presence of significant hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided text, the SenTec Digital Monitoring System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- SenTec System Function: The SenTec Digital Monitoring System is described as a non-invasive patient monitoring system. It measures physiological parameters (carbon dioxide tension, oxygen saturation, and pulse rate) directly from the patient's body surface (earlobe, forehead, cheek, upper arm, back). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
Therefore, the SenTec Digital Monitoring System falls under the category of in vivo diagnostic or monitoring devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

Technological Characteristics [807.92(a)(6)]:
The SenTec Digital Monitoring System (SDMS) has the same indications for use as well as the same indicated patient population as the specified combination of the predicate devices.
Compared to the SDMS confiquration cleared under K101690 the technological characteristics (hardware and software) regarding continuous, noninvasive patient monitoring of PCO2, SpO2 and PR remain unchanged are identical to the SDMS configuration listed under K101690.
In this submission the intended use of the SDMS has been extended to include additionally continuous, noninvasive monitoring of PO2. This addition required hardware (e.g. new sensor type) and software (firmware and V-STATS™ PC software) changes. All relevant patient monitoring features of the SDMS for PO2 monitoring are equivalent to those of Radiometer`s TCM CombiM when used with the tc Sensor 84 as cleared in K093154
SenTec's new OxiVenT™ Sensor (model OV-A/P/N) uses the exact same basic principles of operation and the same technology as the predicate devices. The OxiVenT™ Sensor uses a different PO2 monitoring technology than its predicate device (Radiometer `s TCM CombiM with tc Sensor 84, K093154) but with equivalent function. This does not raise additional issues regarding safety and effectiveness.
The V-Sign™ Sensor 2 (model VS-A/P/N) in this submission uses the exact same basic principles of operation and the same technology as cleared in K101690. However, additional pulse oximetry monitoring sites in adult and pediatric were added in this submission. Also, the lowest operator-selectable sensor set temperature is new 37°C instead of 39°C previously. These differences do not raise additional issues regarding safety and effectiveness.
The existing accessories (Digital Sensor Adapter Cable, Ear Clip, Multi-Site Attachment Rings, Membrane Changer, Service Gas, Contact Gel) remain unchanged but may now also be used for SenTec's new OxiVenT™ Sensor (model OV-A/P/N) (subject to this submission). The new, optional sensor application accessory, Staysite™ Adhesive pad (model SA-MAR), does not add new indications and does not raise additional issues regarding safety and effectiveness.
The latest version of the V-STATS™ PC software including the V-CareNeT™ package (this submission) remains unchanged in function as cleared in K101690 regarding remote monitoring and/or trend reporting and statistical data analysis. In this submission data download, display and statistical analysis of the new PO2 monitoring parameter has been added.
