The summary describes a physical catheter and its accessories used for thermodilution and pressure measurement, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would suggest AI/ML.
No.
The device is used for monitoring cardiovascular and circulatory volume status, not for treating a disease or condition.
Yes
The device is used for "cardiovascular and circulatory volume status monitoring," which involves measuring physiological parameters to assess a patient's health status, fitting the definition of a diagnostic device.
No
The device description clearly details physical components such as catheters, guidewires, needles, and dilators, and describes their physical properties and testing. It is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the PiCCO Catheter is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The PiCCO Catheter is a device that is inserted into the human body (a large arterial vessel) to directly measure physiological parameters (blood temperature and pressure).
- The intended use describes monitoring cardiovascular and circulatory volume status in patients. This indicates direct interaction with the patient's circulatory system, not the analysis of a sample taken from the patient.
- The device description details a catheter with a thermistor and a lumen for pressure monitoring. These are components designed for direct physiological measurement within the body.
- The placement is described as being done using the Seldinger Technique into a large arterial vessel. This is an invasive procedure performed on the patient.
Therefore, the PiCCO Catheter is a medical device used for in vivo monitoring, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description/
The PiCCO Catheter uses a thermistor to measure the blood Device Function: temperature change during thermodilution. This thermistor is located in one of the two catheter lumen. The second catheter lumen ends in a Luer-Lock for connection to a pressure monitoring kit.
The thermistor is connected to a patient monitor via a dedicated plug.
The placement of the catheter into a large arterial vessel is done using the Seldinger Technique and is intended to use of up to 10 days.
The PiCCO Catheter Sets contain the following parts:
-
- PiCCO Catheter,
-
- Guidewire with dispenser and advancer,

- Introducer needles,
-
- Dilator (exception: the 3F Set does not include a dilator).
Five PiCCO Catheter models are available which differ in diameter and length. The PiCCO catheter set contains accessories fitting to the respective PiCCO catheter model in size.
The Catheter Set is packed into a preformed blister (PET), sealed with a Tyvek® lid and EtO sterilized.
Scientific Concept Behind:
PiCCO catheter is used with the monitoring system for the measurement of cardiac output by the thermodilution method, measurement of arterial blood pressure, and for cardiac output determination by arterial pulse contour analysis. Additionally the thermodilution measurement allows the determination of the intrathoracic filling volumes and extravascular lung water.
To measure the thermodilution, a known volume of a cold or room-temperature bolus (e.g. normal saline 0.9%) is injected through a central venous catheter. The downstream temperature change is dependent on the flow and the volume through which the cold indicator has passed. A thermodilution curve is recorded by PiCCO Catheter, which also serves for pressure monitoring. The temperature measurement works as follows:
5
The thermistor at the tip of the PiCCO catheter provides a temperature dependent resistance. The voltage measurement can detect resistance changes which can be related to temperature changes. The monitor calculates the Cardiac Output according to the Stewart-Hamilton formula using the area under the thermodilution curve. In addition, specific volumes can be calculated by multiplying cardiac output with characteristic time variables of the thermodilution curve.
The parameters can alternatively be displayed as absolute parameters or indexed to the patient´s body characteristics.
