Intended Use
The Venue is a general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system for use by qualified healthcare professionals. The clinical environments where the Venue can be used include critical care and emergency room environments, as well as point-of- care areas in offices, clinical and hospital settings for diagnosis of patients. The Venue is intended for ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid for multiple clinical applications including: abdominal (GYN and Urology), thoracic/pleural, ophthalmic, Fetal/OB, Small Organ (including breast, testes, thyroid), Peripheral vascular, neonatal and adult cephalic, musculoskeletal (conventional and superficial), cardiac (adults and pediatric), Transvaginal, and imaging guidance of interventional procedures (e.g. Nerve block, vascular access). When Pinpoint GT Technology, from C.R. Bard, Inc., is included with the system, the Indications for Use include: Pinpoint GT Technology is intended to provide clinicians with visual tools for passive magnetic tracking of a needle with respect to ultrasound image data.
Device Description
The proposed Venue system is a general-purpose, Track 3, diagnostic ultrasound device, intended for ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid that provides digital acquisition, processing and display capabilities. Venue can be used in offices, clinical areas and hospitals, with a focus in critical care and emergency rooms settings. The Venue is a mobile system with a small footprint that easily fits into tight spaces and positioned to accommodate the sometimes-awkward work settings of the point of care user. The Venue has a 19" high resolution color LCD monitor, with a simple, multi-touch user interface that makes the system intuitive. The single surface screen can be cleaned with disinfectants. Articulated monitor arm enables flexible display positions in order to be accessible and clearly visible in both user-standing and sitting positions. The Venue has a battery that allows scanning continuously for hours without the need to plug in to an electrical outlet. The system is capable of wireless communication and a barcode reader is optionally available to be used as an input device. System meets DICOM requirements to support users image storage and archiving needs and allows for output to printing devices. The Venue utilizes a variety of linear, convex, and phased array transducers which provide high imaging capability, supporting all standard acquisition modes. Some biopsy kits are available for needle-guidance procedures and Pinpoint GT option is also available.
More Information

No
The document describes a general-purpose diagnostic ultrasound system and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is described as a "general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system" and is intended for "ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis" for diagnosis, not for treatment.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The Venue is a general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system for use by qualified healthcare professionals." The "Device Description" also refers to it as a "diagnostic ultrasound device."

No

The device description explicitly mentions hardware components such as a 19" high resolution color LCD monitor, transducers, a battery, and optional barcode reader and biopsy kits. It is a physical ultrasound system with integrated software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Venue's Function: The Venue is a diagnostic ultrasound system. It uses sound waves to create images of internal structures of the human body in vivo (within the living body).
  • Intended Use: The Intended Use clearly states it's for "ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid for multiple clinical applications." This describes an in vivo imaging process, not the analysis of in vitro specimens.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a "general-purpose, Track 3, diagnostic ultrasound device, intended for ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid."

While the system can analyze "fluid," this is in the context of imaging fluid within the body (e.g., ascites, pleural effusions), not analyzing fluid samples collected from the body.

Therefore, the Venue system falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Device Description:The proposed Venue system is a general-purpose, Track 3,
diagnostic ultrasound device, intended for ultrasound imaging,
measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid that
provides digital acquisition, processing and display capabilities.
Venue can be used in offices, clinical areas and hospitals, with a
focus in critical care and emergency rooms settings.
The Venue is a mobile system with a small footprint that easily
fits into tight spaces and positioned to accommodate the
sometimes-awkward work settings of the point of care user.
The Venue has a 19" high resolution color LCD monitor, with a
simple, multi-touch user interface that makes the system intuitive.
The single surface screen can be cleaned with disinfectants.

Articulated monitor arm enables flexible display positions in order to be accessible and clearly visible in both user-standing and sitting positions.

The Venue has a battery that allows scanning continuously for hours without the need to plug in to an electrical outlet. The system is capable of wireless communication and a barcode reader is optionally available to be used as an input device. System meets DICOM requirements to support users image storage and archiving needs and allows for output to printing devices.

The Venue utilizes a variety of linear, convex, and phased array transducers which provide high imaging capability, supporting all standard acquisition modes. Some biopsy kits are available for needle-guidance procedures and Pinpoint GT option is also available.

  • Intended Use: The Venue is a general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system for use by qualified healthcare professionals. The clinical environments where the Venue can be used include critical care and emergency room environments, as well as point-of care areas in offices, clinical and hospital settings for diagnosis of patients. The Venue is intended for ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid for multiple clinical applications including: abdominal (GYN and Urology), thoracic/pleural, ophthalmic, Fetal/OB, Small Organ (including breast, testes, thyroid), Peripheral vascular, neonatal and adult cephalic, pediatric, musculoskeletal (conventional and superficial), cardiac (adults and pediatric), Transrectal, Transvaginal, and imaging guidance of interventional procedures (e.g. Nerve block, vascular access). When PinpointTM GT Technology, from C.R. Bard, Inc., is included with the system, the Indications for Use include: Pinpoint™ GT Technology is intended to provide clinicians with visual tools for passive magnetic tracking of a needle with respect to ultrasound image data.
    • Technology: The Venue employs the same fundamental scientific technology as its predicate devices.
