Intended Use
The EV1000 Clinical Platform is indicated for use primarily for critical care patients in which the balance between cardiac function, fluid status and vascular resistance needs continuous or intermittent assessment. Monitoring of hemodynamic parameters in conjunction with a perioperative goal directed therapy protocol enables consistent in the intended patient populations. Analysis of the thermodilution curve in terms of mean transit time and the shape is used to determine intravascular and extravascular fluid volumes. When connected to an Edwards oximetry catheter, the monitor measures oximetry in adults and pediatrics. The EV1000 Clinical Platform may be used in all settings in which critical care is provided. The Edwards Lifesciences Acumen Hypotension Index feature provides the clinician with physiological insight into a patient's likelihood of future hypotensive events (defined as mean arterial pressure < 65 mmHg for at least one minute in duration) and the associated hemodynamics. The Acumen HPI feature is intended for use in surgical or nonsurgical patients receiving advanced hemodynamic monitoring. The Acumen HPI feature is considered to be additional quantitative information regarding the patient's physiological condition for reference only and no therapeutic decisions should be made based solely on the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) parameter. The EV1000 Clinical Platform NI and the ClearSight finger cuffs are indicated for patients over 18 years of age in which the balance between cardiac fluid status and vascular resistance needs continuous assessment. The EV 1000 Clinical Platform may be used for the monitoring of hemodynamic parameters in conjunction with a perioperative goal directed therapy protocol. In addition, the noninvasive system is in patients with comorbidities for which hemodynamic optimization is desired and invasive measurements are difficult. The EV1000 Clinical Platform NI and the ClearSight finger cuffs noninvasively measures blood pressure and associated hemodynamic parameters.
Device Description
**EV1000A:** The EV1000 Clinical Platform measures patient physiologic parameters in a minimally invasive manner when it is used as a system with various Edwards' components, including the Edwards pressure transducers, the FloTrac sensor, the components of the VolumeView System, oximetry catheters/sensors, and the corresponding accessories applied to the patient. The EV1000 Clinical Platform includes an Acumen Hypotension Index (HPI) feature, which is an index related to the likelihood of a patient experiencing a hypotensive event (defined as mean arterial pressure (MAP) < 65 mmHg for one minute in duration) within 15 minutes, where zero (0) indicates low likelihood and one hundred (100) indicates high likelihood. The Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index, HPI, should not be used exclusively to treat patients. A review of the patient's hemodynamics is recommended prior to initiating treatment. The EV1000 Clinical Platform consists of the EV1000 Monitor (Monitor), the EV1000 Databox (Databox), and an Ethernet cable to connect the Databox to the Monitor. It may be attached to the patient bedside, an IV pole or roll stand. No changes were made directly to the EV1000A system (i.e. Databox). However, since the monitor (EV1000M) is shared by the both platforms (EV1000N), the new software updates, Fluid Responsiveness Test feature, enhanced cybersecurity, and data download option to the EV1000NI impacted the EV1000A platform. Additionally, dP/dt, Eadyn, and PPV as key parameters, as well as minor updates to the graphic user interface to the key parameters and secondary screens were reflected in the operator's manual. All of these software changes reside in the EV1000 monitor. **EV1000NI:** The EV1000 Clinical Platform NI with ClearSight finger cuffs is a non-invasive monitor that enables the continuous assessment of a patient's hemodynamic function based on the scientific method of Peñàz - Wesseling. The device measures continuous non-invasive blood pressure (Systolic, Diastolic, and Mean Arterial Pressure) and pulse rate. Cardiac Output and other hemodynamic parameters are derived from the blood pressure waveform. The EV1000 NI consists of the EV1000 monitor (EV1000M), the EV1000 Pump-Unit), a Pressure Controller (PC2K or PC2) that is worn on the wrist, a Heart Reference Sensor (HRS), and Edwards ClearSight finger cuffs (It may be attached to the patient bedside, an IV pole or roll stand. Software modifications were made to support new features such as Fluid Response Interpretation. Blood Pressure Calibration, ClearSight Workflow Options, Focused Screens, enhanced error messaging/help screens, finger cuff brand recognition, enhanced cybersecurity updates, data download options, and Heart Reference Sensor (HRS) EEPROM update were included as part of this submission.
More Information

Yes
The device description explicitly mentions the "Acumen Hypotension Index (HPI) feature," which is described as an "index related to the likelihood of a patient experiencing a hypotensive event." While not explicitly stating "AI" or "ML," the concept of predicting a future physiological event based on current data strongly suggests the use of predictive algorithms, which are commonly implemented using ML techniques in medical devices. The predicate device K183646 is also for the Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI), further supporting this interpretation.

No.
The device is indicated for monitoring hemodynamic parameters and providing physiological insights, not for delivering therapy. It explicitly states that "no therapeutic decisions should be made based solely on the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) parameter."

Yes
The device is used for "Monitoring of hemodynamic parameters" and "Analysis of the thermodilution curve in terms of mean transit time and the shape is used to determine intravascular and extravascular fluid volumes." It also "measures oximetry," "measures blood pressure and associated hemodynamic parameters," and provides "physiological insight into a patient's likelihood of future hypotensive events." These actions involve assessing physiological states and providing information about a patient's medical condition, which are functions of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly mentions hardware components such as the EV1000 Monitor, EV1000 Databox, Ethernet cable, EV1000 Pump-Unit, Pressure Controller, and Heart Reference Sensor. While software updates are mentioned, the device is clearly a system incorporating both hardware and software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used for monitoring hemodynamic parameters in critical care patients. It measures physiological parameters directly from the patient (e.g., blood pressure, cardiac output, fluid volumes) using methods like thermodilution and non-invasive blood pressure measurement.
  • Device Description: The device description details how the system interacts with the patient through sensors, catheters, and finger cuffs to obtain physiological data. It does not mention analyzing samples of human origin (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not include any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples.
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples.
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or prognosis based on the analysis of biological samples.

The device is a patient monitoring system that measures physiological parameters in vivo (within the living body) or minimally invasively, rather than in vitro (in glass or outside the body) using biological samples.

No
The letter does not explicitly state that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a PCCP for this specific device, nor does it reference section 515C(b)(1).
