No
The device description focuses on mechanical, optical, and acoustic sensors for detection and logging, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data analysis or interpretation. The performance studies also do not indicate the use of AI/ML.
No.
The device is described as a medication reminder and electronic data capture accessory for recording usage of prescribed inhaler medication, not as a device that delivers or performs therapy itself.
No
The device is described as a "medication reminder and electronic data capture accessory for recording usage of prescribed inhaler medication." Its primary function is to track and remind patients about their inhaler use, not to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states that the Hailie™ sensor is a "clip-on device that attaches externally around the housing of the inhaler" and contains "Mechanical, optical and acoustic sensors" and "an electronic clock and calendar." It also mentions "Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)" testing, which is relevant to hardware. This indicates it is a physical device with hardware components, not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the Hailie™ sensor is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Hailie™ Sensor Function: The Hailie™ sensor's intended use is to act as a medication reminder and electronic data capture accessory for recording the usage of a prescribed inhaler. It monitors the mechanical, optical, and acoustic signals of the inhaler itself, not biological specimens from the patient.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: The device description and intended use clearly indicate that the Hailie™ sensor does not interact with or analyze any biological samples from the patient.
Therefore, the Hailie™ sensor falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device. It is a medical device accessory that aids in medication adherence and monitoring.
N/A

VII. Performance Data
Non-clinical testing of the Hailie™ sensor has been carried out to cover biocompatibility testing, electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility, software verification and validation testing, performance testing, and usability evaluation.
Biocompatibility Testing
The biocompatibility evaluation for the Hailie™ sensor was conducted in accordance with the FDA guidance Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" (16 Jun 2016), to meet requirements from the following standards: ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-1:2009 (biocompatibility), ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-5:2009 (cytotoxicity), ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-10:2010 (sensitization and intracutaneous irritation), and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-12:2012 (sample preparation for biocompatibility testing). The

- Optical inhaler presence detection determined optical calibration limits and confirmed . accurate detection of an installed inhaler.
- Mechanical inhaler usage detection sensor confirmed reliability of sensor over device lifetime. .
- Acoustic inhaler usage detection sensor confirmed accurate detection of inhaler usage and . prevention of detection from other inputs.
- Spurious log prevention testing determined circuit parameters and confirmed prevention of . erroneous medication usage logs.
- General performance testing confirmed acceptable performance over the specified shelf life . and specified Bluetooth communications range.
- . User interface testing - confirmed visibility of device display and audibility of device buzzer.
Usability Evaluation
Summative usability validation testing was carried out to evaluate critical tasks indicated by the usability risk analysis process. A description of the usability engineering process and the results obtained from the testing were provided in accordance with the FDA guidance Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices (3 Feb 2016).
