The description of the "Patient Risk Analytics Engine" and the "Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index" indicates that the index is derived by "mathematical manipulations" and a "software model." While the model parameters are now age-dependent and include new relationships, the language used ("mathematical manipulations," "model states and relationships") does not explicitly mention or strongly suggest the use of AI or ML techniques like training on data to learn patterns or make predictions. The changes described are more indicative of algorithmic or rule-based modifications rather than AI/ML model updates.
No
The T3 Software is intended for monitoring and displaying physiological parameters and aiding in clinical decisions, not for providing therapy directly.
Yes
The device processes physiological and laboratory data to calculate an "Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index," which aids in clinical decisions by indicating an increased risk of inadequate oxygen delivery and presenting partial quantitative information about the patient's cardiovascular condition. This function involves interpreting patient data to provide insights into their health status, which is a diagnostic activity.
Yes
The device description explicitly states "Software-only solution no new bedside hardware required." and the intended use and device description focus solely on the processing, display, and analysis of data received from other medical devices.
Based on the provided information, the T3 Software is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Definition of IVD: An IVD device is defined as a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood, tissues, and urine, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological state, state of health, or disease or congenital abnormality.
- T3 Software's Intended Use: The T3 Software is intended for the recording and display of physiological parameters from supported bedside devices and laboratory measurements. While it displays laboratory measurements (which are derived from in vitro tests), the software itself does not perform the in vitro examination of the specimens. It receives and displays data that has already been generated by other devices or laboratory processes.
- Focus on Physiological Parameters: The primary function described is the aggregation and display of real-time physiological data from patients.
- Patient Risk Analytics Engine: The Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index is derived from mathematical manipulations of physiological data and laboratory measurements received by T3. It does not involve the in vitro examination of a specimen by the T3 software itself.
In summary, the T3 Software acts as a data aggregation, display, and analysis tool for data generated by other medical devices and laboratory tests. It does not perform the in vitro diagnostic testing itself.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The T3 Software is intended for the recording and display of multiple physiological parameters of adult, pediatric and neonatal patients from supported bedside devices. T3 is not intended for alarm notification or waveform display, nor is it intended to control any of the independent bedside devices to which it is connected. T3 is intended to be used by healthcare professionals for the following purposes:
- To remotely consult regarding a patient's status, and
- To remotely review other standard or critical near real-time patient data in order to aid in clinical decisions and deliver patient care in a timely manner.
T3 can display numeric physiologic data captured by other medical devices:
- Airway flow, volume and pressure
- Arterial blood pressure (invasive and non-invasive, systolic, diastolic, and mean)
- Bispectral index (BIS, signal quality index, suppression ratio)
- Cardiac Index
- Cardiac output
- Central venous pressure
- Cerebral perfusion pressure
- End-tidal CO2
- Heart rate
- Heart rate variability
- Intracranial pressure
- Left atrium pressure
- Oxygen saturation (intravascular, regional, SpO2)
- Premature ventricular counted beats
- Pulmonary artery pressure (systolic, diastolic, and mean)
- Pulse pressure variation
- Pulse Rate
- Respiratory rate
- Right atrium pressure
- Temperature (rectal, esophageal, tympanic, blood, core, nasopharyngeal, skin)
- Umbilical arterial pressure (systolic, diastolic, and mean)
It can also display laboratory measurements including arterial and venous blood gases, complete blood count, and lactic acid.
T3 includes a Patient Risk Analytics Engine that calculates an index (the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index) that is indicated for use by health care professionals with postsurgical patients aged zero days to twelve years weighing 2 kg or more under intensive care. The Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index is derived by mathematical manipulations of the physiologic data and laboratory measurements received by T3. When the index is elevated, it means that there is increased risk of inadequate oxygen delivery and attention should be brought to the patient. The index presents partial quantitative information about the patient's cardiovascular condition, and no therapy or drugs can be administered based solely on the interpretation statements.

The subject device is a modification of the T3 Software that expands the Indications for Use for the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index (IDO2) from patients aged 0 - 28 days to patients aged zero days to twelve years. The IDO2 Index is derived by mathematical manipulations of the physiologic data and laboratory measurements received by T3. This index provides an interpretation of how different the patient's physiologic measures are from normality.
In addition to the expansion in the Indications of Use for the IDO2 Index, T3 release 3.0 contains the following changes:
-
- In previous T3 versions, the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index is documented as having the following limitation.
The index will not be displayed if the following minimum measurements are not available:
- In previous T3 versions, the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index is documented as having the following limitation.
- a. Heart rate from ECG or pulse at a minimum of once every 30 seconds
- b. SpO2 from pulse oximetry at a minimum of once every 30 seconds
- c. Blood Pressure (mean/diastolic/systolic) at a minimum of once every 10 minutes
This limitation has been changed to the following:
The index will not be displayed if the following minimum measurements are not available:
-
a. Heart rate from ECG or pulse at a minimum of once every 60 seconds
-
b. SpO2 from pulse oximetry at a minimum of once every 10 minutes
-
c. Blood Pressure (mean/diastolic/systolic) at a minimum of once every 10 minutes
The minimum requirement for Heart Rate data has changed from 30 seconds to 60 seconds, and the minimum requirement for SpO2 has changed from 30 seconds to 10 minutes. -
- In previous T3 versions, the software model used to calculate IDO2 had age independent parameters and did not include a number of potentially useful model relationships. In the updated model, parameters are now dependent on patient age. Also, new model states and relationships have been implemented to improve the performance.
-
- In previous T3 versions, the calibration logic for IDO2 utilized the probability distribution of patient states to determine whether or not to display a given IDO2 value. The new calibration logic is simply time based, waiting 5 minutes to display IDO2 values for a new patient. In addition, if the algorithm is re-initialized for any reason, it will undergo an additional 5 minutes of calibration after the re-initialization.
-
- The IDO2 labeling contains a list of required and optional algorithm inputs. One required input is SpO2. Previous releases of T3 accepted SpO2 captured by the patient monitor and reported with any of three different labels: "SpO2" (defined as "SpO2 from pulse oximeter"), "SpO2 l" (defined as "arterial oxygen saturation left"), and "SpO2 r" (defined as "arterial oxygen saturation right"). This release of T3 adds SpO2 as reported with two other labels: "SpO2 pr" (defined as "pre-ductal SpO2") and "SpO2 po" (defined as "post-ductal SpO2").
-
- T3 version 3.0 also includes the following User Interface changes:
- a. A new user interface mode that displays the data originating from a single bed location, even as new patients are transferred into that location. The benefit of this change is that the T3 user is never auto-logged off due to inactivity. Instead, T3 displays either the view of the patient data or a dialog stating that no data is being received for the bed. The mode is suitable for a bedside display, and saves clinicians the time and effort of logging in and navigating to that patient's data each time they want to use T3. To mitigate possible clinician confusion about which patient the data is for, T3 only displays data for one patient at a time - the current patient. Furthermore, the patient's name, medical record number and date of birth are displayed on the screen.
- Views: These are predefined arrangements of labs and measures. Views are b. accessed through a tabbed display. The first instance of the View functionality is the Hemodynamic View, which presents information about the patient's hemodynamic system. Views save clinicians the time and effort to drag meaningful labs and measures to the central graph area in order to display them.
- c. Smart Visualization Groups: These are collections of measures and laboratory results that are graphed together as a single unit. T3 is able to insert shading. vertical lines and other visual cues to emphasize relationships in the data. For example, in the Blood Pressure group, the area between systolic and diastolic pressure is shaded. The shading represents "pulse pressure," a standard measure of the force the heart generates each time it contracts. The shading allows the clinician to see increases or decreases in pulse pressure, in addition to the systolic and diastolic blood pressure values from which pulse pressure is calculated.
- d. When T3 displays a measure it inserts the starting and ending values for the period of time being graphed on the left and right edges of the canvas. It inserts the maximum and minimum values for the measure in circles at the point in time when they occur. If two or more of these values would overlap on the graph. T3 emits all but one of them for clarity. Likewise, if one of these values would obscure the graphic icon for a laboratory result, T3 emits it so the laboratory result is shown.
-
e. Night Mode. There are now application-wide configuration settings that specify when "night time" starts and ends. For example, night time can be defined to start at 7PM and end at 7AM - or whatever times are desired. When T3 runs "at night," the application recognizes that it is night based on the system clock, and automatically uses a dark background. This reduces the amount of ambient light that the T3 monitor emits. When it runs during the day, T3 similarly recognizes that it is day and automatically uses a light background. It is possible for individual users to manually override the night mode function. On the patient view screen. T3 adds buttons that let the user manually control night mode. There is a sunshine button that lightens the background, and a moon button that darkens the background. A lock button locks in the user's selection of day or night.
-
f. If T3 receives data for a patient measure whose unit of measure is different from what was previously received for that patient and measure, it now displays a temporary warning banner at the top of the display that is automatically dismissed after ten seconds. Previously, T3 displayed the warning, but required the user to dismiss it by clicking on it. In many situations, needing to click to dismiss the warning was inconvenient or impractical. An example of this functionality is if T3 is receiving mean airway pressure for a patient. The monitor may report values in "millibars" then switch to "cmH2O." Both are commonly accepted ways of measuring airway pressure. In this case, the warning will say "Measure mnAWp has inconsistent unit codes. T3 is expecting units of mbar, but received data points with units of cmH2O. Those data points will not be displayed."
-
The dialog showing additional details for a lab value is now invoked by g. clicking anywhere on the lab icon. Previously it was invoked by hovering the mouse cursor over the exact data point for the lab value. The new functionality is more forgiving if the mouse cursor is slightly misplaced, and is less susceptible to displaying unwanted tooltips when the user moves the mouse cursor around the screen.
-
- Typically, a clinician enters the patient's medical record number (MRN) into the bedside monitor. The physio interface sent to T3 from that monitor then includes the MRN and bed location along with the data values for the patient. T3 now supports an alternate workflow where the hospital's Admit, Discharge and Transfer (ADT) interface is used as the definitive source of patient identity and location information. The physio interface contains bed location along with the data values for the patient, but T3 derives the MRN by matching the bed location sent in the physio interface with the bed location / MRN pairing sent in the ADT interface. In order to recover from a situation where an ADT message is not delivered to T3 for some reason, or T3 processes it incorrectly, there is also a user interface in T3 that allows an administrator to explicitly specify the MRN for the patient occupying a bed location. This has the same effect as an ADT message associating a patient with a bed location.
-
- T3 can now send an informational email to one or more configured email addresses when it detects that data is being received from a bed location without an associated patient medical record number, or when it detects that data is simultaneously being received from multiple bed locations with the same associated MRN. The recipient of the email can then investigate and correct the problem. The email does not contain protected health information; instead it specifies the bed locations where the issue occurs.
-
- The T3 labeling lists a series of clinical calculations that can be configured upon clinician demand. These clinical calculations are simple algebraic formulas that accept raw parameters and output a single result. An example is Pulse Width which is equal to Systolic blood pressure minus Diastolic blood pressure. This release of T3 adds the following calculations to the list that may be requested by clinicians:
| Label | Name | Formula |
|---|---|---|
| P/F | P/F Ratio | PaO2 / FiO2 |
| S/F | S/F Ratio | SpO2 / FiO2 |
| OI | Oxygenation Index | (FiO2 * Mean Airway Pressure * 100) / PaO2 |
| OSI | Oxygen Saturation Index | (FiO2 * Mean Airway Pressure * 100) / SpO2 |

The subject device is a modification of the T3 Software that expands the Indications for Use for the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index (IDO2) from patients aged 0 - 28 days to patients aged zero days to twelve years. The IDO2 Index is derived by mathematical manipulations of the physiologic data and laboratory measurements received by T3. This index provides an interpretation of how different the patient's physiologic measures are from normality.
In addition to the expansion in the Indications of Use for the IDO2 Index, T3 release 3.0 contains the following changes:
-
- In previous T3 versions, the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index is documented as having the following limitation.
The index will not be displayed if the following minimum measurements are not available:
- In previous T3 versions, the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index is documented as having the following limitation.
-
a. Heart rate from ECG or pulse at a minimum of once every 30 seconds
-
b. SpO2 from pulse oximetry at a minimum of once every 30 seconds
-
c. Blood Pressure (mean/diastolic/systolic) at a minimum of once every 10 minutes
This limitation has been changed to the following:
The index will not be displayed if the following minimum measurements are not available:
- a. Heart rate from ECG or pulse at a minimum of once every 60 seconds
- b. SpO2 from pulse oximetry at a minimum of once every 10 minutes
- c. Blood Pressure (mean/diastolic/systolic) at a minimum of once every 10 minutes
The minimum requirement for Heart Rate data has changed from 30 seconds to 60 seconds, and the minimum requirement for SpO2 has changed from 30 seconds to 10 minutes.
-
- In previous T3 versions, the software model used to calculate IDO2 had age independent parameters and did not include a number of potentially useful model relationships. In the updated model, parameters are now dependent on patient age. Also, new model states and relationships have been implemented to improve the performance.
-

value. The new calibration logic is simply time based, waiting 5 minutes to display IDO2 values for a new patient. In addition, if the algorithm is re-initialized for any reason, it will undergo an additional 5 minutes of calibration after the re-initialization.
-
- The IDO2 labeling contains a list of required and optional algorithm inputs. One required input is SpO2. Previous releases of T3 accepted SpO2 captured by the patient monitor and reported with any of three different labels: "SpO2" (defined as "SpO2 from pulse oximeter"), "SpO2 l" (defined as "arterial oxygen saturation left"), and "SpO2 r" (defined as "arterial oxygen saturation right"). This release of T3 adds SpO2 as reported with two other labels: "SpO2 pr" (defined as "pre-ductal SpO2") and "SpO2 po" (defined as "post-ductal SpO2").
-
- T3 version 3.0 also includes the following User Interface changes:
- a. A new user interface mode that displays the data originating from a single bed location, even as new patients are transferred into that location. The benefit of this change is that the T3 user is never auto-logged off due to inactivity. Instead, T3 displays either the view of the patient data or a dialog stating that no data is being received for the bed. The mode is suitable for a bedside display, and saves clinicians the time and effort of logging in and navigating to that patient's data each time they want to use T3. To mitigate possible clinician confusion about which patient the data is for, T3 only displays data for one patient at a time - the current patient. Furthermore, the patient's name, medical record number and date of birth are displayed on the screen.
- Views: These are predefined arrangements of labs and measures. Views are b. accessed through a tabbed display. The first instance of the View functionality is the Hemodynamic View, which presents information about the patient's hemodynamic system. Views save clinicians the time and effort to drag meaningful labs and measures to the central graph area in order to display them.

There is a sunshine button that lightens the background, and a moon button that darkens the background. A lock button locks in the user's selection of day or night.
- f. If T3 receives data for a patient measure whose unit of measure is different from what was previously received for that patient and measure, it now displays a temporary warning banner at the top of the display that is automatically dismissed after ten seconds. Previously, T3 displayed the warning, but required the user to dismiss it by clicking on it. In many situations, needing to click to dismiss the warning was inconvenient or impractical. An example of this functionality is if T3 is receiving mean airway pressure for a patient. The monitor may report values in "millibars" then switch to "cmH2O." Both are commonly accepted ways of measuring airway pressure. In this case, the warning will say "Measure mnAWp has inconsistent unit codes. T3 is expecting units of mbar, but received data points with units of cmH2O. Those data points will not be displayed."
- The dialog showing additional details for a lab value is now invoked by g. clicking anywhere on the lab icon. Previously it was invoked by hovering the mouse cursor over the exact data point for the lab value. The new functionality is more forgiving if the mouse cursor is slightly misplaced, and is less susceptible to displaying unwanted tooltips when the user moves the mouse cursor around the screen.

processes it incorrectly, there is also a user interface in T3 that allows an administrator to explicitly specify the MRN for the patient occupying a bed location. This has the same effect as an ADT message associating a patient with a bed location.

- T3 can now send an informational email to one or more configured email addresses when it detects that data is being received from a bed location without an associated patient medical record number, or when it detects that data is simultaneously being received from multiple bed locations with the same associated MRN. The recipient of the email can then investigate and correct the problem. The email does not contain protected health information; instead it specifies the bed locations where the issue occurs.

- The T3 labeling lists a series of clinical calculations that can be configured upon clinician demand. These clinical calculations are simple algebraic formulas that accept raw parameters and output a single result. An example is Pulse Width which is equal to Systolic blood pressure minus Diastolic blood pressure. This release of T3 adds the following calculations to the list that may be requested by clinicians:
| Label | Name | Formula |
|---|---|---|
| P/F | P/F Ratio | PaO2 / FiO2 |
| S/F | S/F Ratio | SpO2 / FiO2 |
| OI | Oxygenation Index | (FiO2 * Mean Airway Pressure * 100) / PaO2 |
| OSI | Oxygen Saturation Index | (FiO2 * Mean Airway Pressure * 100) / SpO2 |
Indications for Use
The T3 Software is intended for the recording and display of multiple physiological parameters of adult, pediatric and neonatal patients from supported bedside devices. T3 is not intended for alarm notification or waveform display, nor is it intended to control any of the independent bedside devices to which it is connected. T3 is intended to be used by healthcare professionals for the following purposes:
- To remotely consult regarding a patient's status, and
- . To remotely review other standard or critical near real-time patient data in order to utilize this information to aid in clinical decisions and deliver patient care in a timely manner.
T3 can display numeric physiologic data captured by other medical devices:
- Airway flow, volume and pressure •
- Arterial blood pressure (invasive and non-invasive, systolic, diastolic, and mean) .
- . Bispectral index (BIS, signal quality index, suppression ratio)
9
- Cardiac Index ●
- Cardiac output
- . Central venous pressure
- Cerebral perfusion pressure
- End-tidal CO2 .
- Heart rate
- Heart rate variability
- Intracranial pressure
- Left atrium pressure
- Oxygen saturation (intravascular, regional, SpO2)
- Premature ventricular counted beats
- Pulmonary artery pressure (systolic, diastolic, and mean)
- . Pulse pressure variation
- Pulse Rate
- . Respiratory rate
- Right atrium pressure
- . Temperature (rectal, esophageal, tympanic, blood, core, nasopharyngeal, skin)
- . Umbilical arterial pressure (systolic, diastolic, and mean)
It can also display laboratory measurements including arterial and venous blood gases, complete blood count, and lactic acid.
T3 includes a Patient Risk Analytics Engine that calculates an index (the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index) that is indicated for use by health care professionals with postsurgical patients aged zero days to twelve vears weighing 2 kg or more under intensive care. The Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index is derived by mathematical manipulations of the physiologic data and laboratory measurements received by T3. When the index is elevated, it means that there is increased risk of inadequate oxygen delivery and attention should be brought to the patient. The index presents partial quantitative information about the patient's cardiovascular condition, and no therapy or drugs can be administered based solely on the interpretation statements.
WARNING: T3 Software is not an active patient monitoring system. It is intended to supplement and not replace any part of the hospital's device monitoring. Do not rely on the T3 Software Solution as the sole source of patient status information.
The scale for the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index (IDO2) is the opposite of the scale for oxygen saturation measurements such as those provided by pulse oximetry. A high value for IDO2 indicates increased risk of inadequate oxygen delivery. A low value indicates reduced risk or normality.
V. Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device
The subject and predicate T3 Software systems are web based and designed to acquire data from the network source and display the information remotely for clinicians to use in the care of their adult, pediatric and neonatal patients. For certain indicated patients, a derived index, the Inadequate Oxygen Delivery Index, is displayed alongside the acquired data.
10
The subject and predicate T3 software products differ in that the IDO2 included in Version 2.0 of the T3 Software (predicate device) is indicated for use with neo-natal patients (0-28 days). The IDO2 included in Version 3.0 of the T3 software (subject device) is indicated for use with patients aged zero days to twelve years.
Version 3.0 of the T3 software also contains the labeling changes and new product features listed above in Section IV Device Description.
VI. Performance Data
Software verification and validation testing was conducted for the subject device, and documentation was provided in accordance with FDA's "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices", May 11, 2005. The results of this testing demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the subject T3 software product (Ver. 3.0) is comparable to that of the predicate T3 software products (Ver. 2.0.1).
In addition, validation study results using clinical data gathered in the intended patient population demonstrate the IDO2 Index included in the subject device correlates with changes in the patient's physical status. To support the use of the IDO2 index in the expanded patient population, the enclosed 510(k) application includes, in part, performance test results using clinical data from 1504 patients, covering the expanded patient age range.
VII. Conclusions
Substantial equivalence of the T3 Software is demonstrated through performance testing. The T3 Software has equivalent design, features and functionality as the predicate T3 Software with few exceptions and these exceptions do not affect the safety or effectiveness of the system.
No new questions of safety or effectiveness are raised as a result of the differences when compared to the predicate device and the data provided in the submission show that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the legally-marketed predicate device.
