Based on the provided text, the SmartLinx Vitals Plus Patient Monitoring System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • The SmartLinx Vitals Plus system directly monitors physiological parameters on the patient's body (blood pressure, pulse rate, SpO2, CO2, respiration, temperature). It's a patient monitoring system, not a system that analyzes samples in a lab setting.

The description clearly focuses on real-time, non-invasive monitoring of vital signs on the patient.

Masimo uSpO2 Pulse Oximetry Cable

The Masimo uSpO2 Pulse Oximetry Cable is a cable with an integrated MS-2000 series circuit board contained in an enclosure that connects to Masimo pulse oximetry sensors and provides functional oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate and other information via a serial digital interface. The SmartLinx Vitals Plus Application controls the operation of the uSpO2 to measure SpO2 and pulse rate in adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients.

Exergen TAT-5000S Temperature Scanner

The Exergen TAT-5000S thermometer is a component of Vitals Plus. The Exergen TAT-5000S is designed for accurate, noninvasive temperature assessment by scanning the temporal artery. The thermometer operates independently but communicates its results to the SmartLinx Vitals Plus Application for display and monitoring.

SmartLinx Early Warning Scoring System

The SmartLinx Early Warning Scoring System (EWSS) is an optional software component that integrates with the SmartLinx Vitals Plus Application and runs on the SmartLinx Neuron 2 Mobile Platform. SmartLinx EWSS performs a medical calculation that aids clinical users in patient assessment and condition trending. This calculation, which would otherwise be completed manually, produces an aggregate patient score from a set of sub-scores determined from the values of measured vital signs and manually entered physiological observations. The resulting aggregate score is displayed on the Vitals Plus Application and may be communicated to other healthcare information systems. EWSS requires the clinical user to attend the patient in order to function. There is no automatic or continuous scoring. The specific scoring method used within SmartLinx EWSS to calculate a patient's score is determined by the customer.

Clinical Studies

The subject of this premarket submission, SmartLinx Vitals Plus Patient Monitoring System, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence.

Conclusions

Substantial equivalence of the proposed SmartLinx Vitals Plus Patient Monitoring System is demonstrated through performance testing and conformance with FDA recognized consensus standards. The proposed SmartLinx Vitals Plus Patient Monitoring System results in equivalent design, features and functionality as compared with the two predicate devices with few exceptions that do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Capsule Technologies therefore views the proposed SmartLinx Vitals Plus Patient Monitoring System to be eligible for a decision of substantial equivalence when compared to the primary predicate device, the SmartLinx Vitals Plus Patient Monitoring System and the secondary predicate device, the Masimo NomoLine Infrared Sidestream Gas Analyzer ISA C02.
