The document describes a mechanical chest compression system and mentions data capture for post-event review, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used for real-time decision-making, analysis, or control of the device's operation.
Yes
The device performs external cardiac compressions on patients experiencing acute circulatory arrest, which is a key therapeutic intervention. It is intended to assist in CPR, a life-saving medical procedure.
No
This device is designed to perform external cardiac compressions, acting as an adjunct to manual CPR. Its purpose is to deliver therapeutic compressions, not to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components (Back Plate, Upper Part, Stabilization Strap, Carrying Case, Battery, Power Supply, Cables, etc.) that are integral to its function of performing chest compressions. While it captures data and transmits it via Bluetooth, the core function is delivered through physical hardware.
Based on the provided information, the LUCAS Chest Compression System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to perform external cardiac compressions on patients experiencing circulatory arrest. This is a mechanical intervention performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is described as a portable tool that delivers chest compressions. It consists of mechanical components like a back plate, upper part with a compression mechanism, and a stabilization strap.
- Lack of In Vitro Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide diagnostic information. IVD devices are specifically designed for this purpose.
The LUCAS Chest Compression System is a therapeutic device used to provide life support through mechanical means.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
LUCAS Chest Compression System is to be used for performing external cardiac compressions on adult patients who have acute circulatory arrest defined as absence of spontaneous breathing and pulse, and loss of consciousness.
LUCAS must only be used in cases where chest compressions are likely to help the patient.
The LUCAS device is intended for use as an adjunct to manual CPR when effective manual CPR is not possible (e.g., during patient transport or extended CPR when fatigue may prohibit the delivery of effective/consistent compressions to the victim, or when insufficient EMS personnel are available to provide effective CPR).

§ 870.5200 External cardiac compressor.
(a)
Identification. An external cardiac compressor is an externally applied prescription device that is electrically, pneumatically, or manually powered and is used to compress the chest periodically in the region of the heart to provide blood flow during cardiac arrest. External cardiac compressor devices are used as an adjunct to manual cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) when effective manual CPR is not possible (e.g., during patient transport or extended CPR when fatigue may prohibit the delivery of effective/consistent compressions to the victim, or when insufficient EMS personnel are available to provide effective CPR).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) Nonclinical performance testing under simulated physiological conditions must demonstrate the reliability of the delivery of specific compression depth and rate over the intended duration of use.
(2) Labeling must include the following:
(i) The clinical training necessary for the safe use of this device;
(ii) Adjunctive use only indication prominently displayed on labels physically placed on the device and in any device manuals or other labeling;
(iii) Information on the patient population for which the device has been demonstrated to be effective (including patient size and/or age limitations,
e.g., adult, pediatric and/or infant); and(iv) Information on the time necessary to deploy the device as demonstrated in the performance testing.
(3) For devices that incorporate electrical components, appropriate analysis and testing must demonstrate that the device is electrically safe and electromagnetically compatible in its intended use environment.
(4) Human factors testing and analysis must validate that the device design and labeling are sufficient for effective use by the intended user, including an evaluation for the time necessary to deploy the device.
(5) For devices containing software, software verification, validation, and hazard analysis must be performed.
(6) Components of the device that come into human contact must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
