The summary describes a physical device with a temperature sensor and a mobile app for data upload and tracking, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used for data analysis, interpretation, or decision-making.
Yes
The device is intended to aid in weight management in overweight to obese individuals, which addresses a health condition.

The device is intended to aid in weight management and monitors usage, not to diagnose a disease or condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "oral removable palatal space occupying device that includes a temperature recording sensor" and a "Palatal Mold Kit," indicating it includes physical hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the SmartByte device 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.
- SmartByte Function: The SmartByte device is an oral, removable palatal device that physically occupies space in the mouth and includes a temperature sensor to monitor usage. It aids in weight management through a physical mechanism and behavioral modification, not by analyzing biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to aid in weight management in overweight to obese individuals, not to diagnose or detect a disease or condition through in vitro analysis.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical device, its placement in the mouth, and a sensor for usage monitoring. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the SmartByte device falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Janice M. Hogan:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

Conclusions
The subject SmartByte device is substantially equivalent to the predicate SMART device, with the same intended use and indications and minor technological differences. The conversion of the software platform to a mobile medical application with a wireless Reader does not raise new types of safety or effectiveness questions. The confirmatory software verification and validation testing, as well as testing to IEC 60950-1, further demonstrates that the device performs as intended and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
