Intended Use
The BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client is a software application capable of displaying physiological data and other patient information to clinicians in near real-time through a web browser. The information is captured from patient monitors by the Draeger Infinity Gateway interfaced with the BetterCare Platform and sent through the hospital local area network to wired or wireless devices running the Advanced Web Client application. The information must be analyzed and interpreted by an expert clinician only. The Better Care Platform is not indicated for use as a real-time monitor. The BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client is intended to display data and waveforms from attached medical devices in a pass-though fashion, the BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client is agnostic to the age or condition of patients attached to the medical devices from which data is received. For example, the special requirements for neonatal, pediatric or adult patients are all provided by the medical devices directly attached to the patient. The BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client simply reproduces that numeric, waveform and other clinical data provided to it for communications and display. The Better Care Platform - Advanced Web Client is installed on compatible desktop and mobile devices including cellular telephones, and is intended to be used by clinicians to: - remotely view patient physiological information as captured by Draeger Infinity Gateway - remotely view waveforms as captured by Draeger Infinity Gateway - remotely view other patient data as captured by Draeger Infinity Gateway The BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client is not patient connected and is not a primary alarm source. It can display the following physiological data captured by Draeger Infinity Gateway: - ECG Waveform - Arterial Pressure Waveform - SpO2 Waveform - CO2 Waveform - Central Venous Pressure Waveform - Pulmonary Arterial Pressure Waveform - Right Auricular Pressure Waveform - Left Auricualar Pressure Waveform - Resp Waveform - Heart Rate - Respiratory Rate - Oxygen Saturation - Central Venous Pressure - Systolic Arterial Pressure Invasive - Mean Arterial Pressure Invasive - Diastolic Arterial Pressure Invasive - Systolic Blood Pressure Non invasive - Mean Bloood Pressure Non invasive - Diastolic Blood Pressure Non invasive - Systolic Pulmonary Arterial Pressure - Mean Pulmonary Arterial Pressure - Diastolic Pulmonary Arterial Pressure - Right Auricular Pressure - Left Auricular Pressure BetterCare Platform Advanced Web Client is intended to be installed on wired and wireless devices. including cellular telephones, and is not intended to be used where such devices are prohibited.

No
The summary explicitly states the device "simply reproduces that numeric, waveform and other clinical data provided to it for communications and display" and that the information "must be analyzed and interpreted by an expert clinician only." There is no mention of any analytical or interpretive functions performed by the software itself, which would be indicative of AI/ML.

No

The device is a software application for displaying physiological data and other patient information to clinicians; it does not provide therapy or a therapeutic effect itself.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states: "BetterCare Platform Advanced Web Client is intended for use by trained clinicians in hospital environments as a diagnostic aid."

Yes

The device is explicitly described as a "software application" and its function is to display data from other medical devices. It does not include any hardware components or perform any physical interaction with the patient or other devices beyond receiving data.

Based on the provided text, the BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body in order to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This typically involves analyzing biological samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc.
  • BetterCare Platform Function: The BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client's intended use and description clearly state that it displays physiological data and waveforms captured directly from patient monitors. It does not analyze biological specimens. It acts as a display and communication tool for data already generated by other medical devices connected to the patient.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device interacting with or analyzing any biological samples.

Therefore, the BetterCare Platform - Advanced Web Client falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device. It is a software application for displaying patient physiological data.
