Intended Use
The Pressure Monitoring Kit with TruWave Disposable Pressure Transducer is for use on patients requiring intravascular, intracranial, or intrauterine pressure monitoring.
Device Description
The Edwards Lifesciences Pressure Monitoring Kit with TruWave disposable pressure transducer is a sterile, single-use kit that monitors intravascular blood pressure, intracranial pressure, and intrauterine pressure. The disposable sterile cable (available in 12-inch/30 cm and 48-inch/120 cm lengths) interfaces exclusively with an Edwards Lifesciences cable that is specifically wired for the patient monitor used to display the pressure data. The TruWave Disposable Pressure Transducer has a straight, flow through design, where the fluid is passed across the pressure sensor. The DPT is available either with or without an integral flush device.

No
The summary describes a standard pressure monitoring kit and transducer with no mention of AI or ML capabilities, data processing, or training/test sets.

No
The device monitors pressure but does not provide therapy or treatment.

Yes
Explanation: The device monitors intravascular, intracranial, or intrauterine pressure, which are diagnostic indicators of a patient's condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "sterile, single-use kit" that includes a "disposable sterile cable" and a "TruWave Disposable Pressure Transducer," indicating it is a hardware device with physical components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The Pressure Monitoring Kit with TruWave Disposable Pressure Transducer directly monitors pressure within the body (intravascular, intracranial, intrauterine). It is a device that interacts with the patient's internal environment, not with specimens taken from the patient.

Therefore, based on the intended use and device description, this device falls under the category of a non-IVD medical device used for physiological monitoring.

| Device Description: | The Edwards Lifesciences Pressure Monitoring Kit with TruWave
disposable pressure transducer is a sterile, single-use kit that
monitors intravascular blood pressure, intracranial pressure, and
intrauterine pressure. The disposable sterile cable (available in 12-
inch/30 cm and 48-inch/120 cm lengths) interfaces exclusively with
an Edwards Lifesciences cable that is specifically wired for the
patient monitor used to display the pressure data.
The TruWave Disposable Pressure Transducer has a straight, flow
through design, where the fluid is passed across the pressure
sensor. The DPT is available either with or without an integral flush
device. |
| Indications for Use/
Intended Use: | The Pressure Monitoring Kit with TruWave Disposable Pressure
Transducer is for use on patients requiring intravascular,
intracranial, or intrauterine pressure monitoring. |
| Comparison to
Predicate Device: | The subject device of this Traditional 510(k) is identical to its
predicate device in terms of intended use/ indications for use, and
technology. The proposed changes to the device include a change
of sterilization method (100% Ethylene Oxide to E-beam radiation),
change in the PVC plasticizer from DEHP to the following non-
phthalate plasticizers: Tris-(2-Ethylhexyl) Trimellitate (TOTM) for
the drip chamber housing in the IV sets and Cyclohexane-1, 2-
dicarboxylic acid diisononyl ester (DINCH®) for tubing. Update to
product labeling to reflect changes in sterilization method (from EO
to E-beam radiation) and removal of phthalate symbol on all levels
of packaging. Clarifying the design verification (electrical) test
results in the Instructions for Use 'Performance Specifications'
section to comply with AAMI/ ANSI BP22: 1994/(R) 2016. Testing
was conducted to ensure that the change in sterilization method
and change in materials did not alter the performance of the
TruWave DPT kits. The TruWave disposable pressure transducer
kits have been shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate
device for its intended use in hospitals and other appropriate clinical
environments. |
| Functional/Safety
Testing: | The TruWave disposable pressure transducer kits successfully
passed biocompatibility, functional testing, electrical performance
and safety testing, and usability testing. The products also passed
all biocompatibility testing. |
| Conclusion: | The subject TruWave Disposable Pressure Transducer kits are
substantially equivalent to the predicate TruWave Disposable
Pressure Transducer Kits (K141495 and K142749) |
