The document describes a sensor that records and transmits usage data, and software that displays this data. There is no mention of AI or ML being used for analysis, interpretation, or prediction.
No
The device is described as an "accessory device" intended to record and monitor the actuations of prescribed SMI usage, not to provide therapy itself. It collects and transmits data for review but explicitly states it is "not intended to diagnose or replace a diagnosis" and "not intended for use as an SMI dose counter."
No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "The output of the Propeller System is not intended to diagnose or replace a diagnosis provided by a licensed physician."
No
The device description explicitly states that the Propeller System includes the "Propeller Sensor Model 2014-R," which is described as a "small device that attaches to the top an existing inhaler." This sensor is a hardware component, making the system more than just software.
Based on the provided information, the Propeller System 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.
- Propeller System Function: The Propeller System's intended use is to record and monitor the actuations of prescribed SMI usage. It collects data about how and when an inhaler is used, patient-reported symptoms, and other disease management information.
- No Biological Samples: The system does not involve the collection or analysis of any biological samples from the patient.
- Focus on Device Usage and Patient-Reported Data: The system's output is based on the interaction with the inhaler and information provided by the user, not on the analysis of bodily fluids or tissues.
- Explicit Statement: The intended use explicitly states, "The output of the Propeller System is not intended to diagnose or replace a diagnosis provided by a licensed physician." This further reinforces that it is not performing a diagnostic test.
Therefore, the Propeller System falls under the category of a medical device that assists in monitoring and managing a condition, but it does not perform in vitro diagnostic testing.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Propeller System includes the Propeller Sensor is an accessory device intended for single-patient use to assist physicians and patients in recording and monitoring the actuations of prescribed SMI usage.
The Propeller Mobile Application records, stores, and transmits usage events from Propeller Sensors, or via manual user entry, to a remote storage system. With the Propeller Mobile Application the user can review information collected from the SMI sensor, and report and review symptoms and other information about their disease management and its impact. The user may also share their information with their caregivers, physician, and healthcare providers.
The Propeller Web Application is software that, like the Propeller Mobile Application, is intended to allow users to review the collected information and characteristics of their SMI and its use, to capture other patient-reported information and outcomes, and to allow that information to be shared with their caregivers, physicians, and health care providers.
When used with a prescribed SMI, the system can report on information captured during the normal course of use, such as the time between actuations that can be helpful in assessing SMI technique.
The Propeller System is intended to be used in populations from Child (>2 years) to Adult.
The Propeller System can be used both indoors; home, work, and clinical settings, as well as on aircraft.
The Propeller System may also be used in clinical trials where researchers need to know information about the use of SMI medication(s) by a participant.
The output of the Propeller System is not intended to diagnose or replace a diagnosis provided by a licensed physician. The Propeller System is not intended for use as an SMI dose counter, nor is it intended to indicate the quantity of medication remaining in an SMI.
