Intended Use
The Medline ReNewal Reprocessed Nellcor OxiMax SpO2 Sensors models MAXAL, MAXP, and MAXI are indicated for single patient use when continuous noninvasive arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitoring are required for patients in the sizes indicated in the respective sensor directions for use. These devices are for prescription use only.
Device Description
The Medline ReNewal Reprocessed Nellcor OxiMax SpO2 Sensors, models MAXA, MAXAL, MAXP, and MAXI are designed for the continuous non-invasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and pulse rate in conjunction with a Nellcor Pulse Oximeter. The Reprocessed Nellcor OxiMax SpO2 Sensors, models MAXA, MAXAL, MAXP, and MAXI are intended for prescription use with adult, pediatric and infant patients in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, and intra-hospital transport. The proposed device is not provided sterile.
More Information

No
The summary describes a reprocessed pulse oximeter sensor, a standard medical device for measuring oxygen saturation and pulse rate. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related technologies in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The focus is on the accuracy of the sensor's measurements.

No
The device is a sensor used for monitoring physiological parameters (oxygen saturation and pulse rate), not for providing therapy.

Yes

The device is a non-invasive arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitor, which are diagnostic indicators of health status.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a "Reprocessed Nellcor OxiMax SpO2 Sensor," which is a physical sensor designed for continuous non-invasive monitoring. It is a hardware component that attaches to a patient.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is a non-invasive sensor used for continuous noninvasive arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitoring. It works by being placed on the patient's finger, toe, or similar digit. It does not involve taking any samples from the body for testing.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Medline ReNewal Reprocessed Nellcor OxiMax SpO2 Sensors are not IVDs. They are considered in vivo devices as they are used directly on the patient's body.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

The purpose of the clinical trial was to perform an oxygen saturation (SpO2) accuracy comparison. The study was conducted in accordance with CFR for Non-significant Risk Investigational Studies, following ISO 14155:2011 Clinical Investigation of medical devices for human subjects - Good clinical practice as appropriate and the pulse oximeter guidelines of ISO 80601-2-61:2011 Procedure for invasive laboratory testing on healthy volunteers applicable sections and Pulse Oximeters – Premarket Notifications Submissions [510(k)] Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff (March 4, 2013 ). After Institutional Review Board Approval, 10 healthy adults volunteer subjects (ages 25 to 36 yr.; weight 105 – 220 lb.; height 60 – 72 in.; BMI of 20.0 – 33.4) were included in the study which was conducted from May 9 to May 10, 2018 to evaluate the SpO2 accuracy of the proposed devices.

Dear Stephanie Boyle Mays:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Image /page/11/Picture/1 description: The image contains two logos. The first logo is for Medline, and it features the word "MEDLINE" in white text with a blue background and a white star-like symbol above the text. The second logo is for Renewal, and it features the word "Renewal" in green and blue text, with the words "Full Circle Reprocessing" in smaller blue text below.

Based on a comparison of the intended use/indications for use, technological characteristics, and performance data to the predicate Conclusion devices, the Medline ReNewal Reprocessed Nellcor OxiMax SpO2 Sensors are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
