Device Description
Belun Ring BLR-100X is a wireless, non-invasive and stand-alone pulse oximeter intended to be used for continuous data collection and recording of oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and the pulse rate of adult patients through index finger in hospital and home environment for up to ten hours, during no motion and motion conditions, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused. It is not intended for single-use and out-of-hospital transport use and does not have alarms. The proposed device consists of three parts: A Ring, a Cradle and a Host program. The Ring is intended to be worn on the base of the index finger. It provides comfortable and accurate measurements without the Cradle in the recording mode. The soft part of the Ring is designed to be changeable for fitting different sizes of fingers. The Cradle collects data from the Ring and charges up the Ring. It transfers the collected data to host via an attached USB cable or Bluetooth low power technology. The host program translates the data into text and graph which can be easily understood by the user. Using spectrophotometric methodology, the proposed device measures oxygen saturation by illuminating the skin and measuring changes in the light absorption of oxygenated (oxyhemoglobin) and deoxygenated blood (reduced hemoglobin) using light of two wavelengths: red and infrared. The ratio of absorbance at these wavelengths is calculated and calibrated against direct measurements of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) to establish the pulse oximeter's measurement of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2). The sensor of the Ring should be placed on the palmar side of the proximal phalanx of the index finger and along the radial artery. The system consists of three main platforms. Ring is responsible for signal acquisition, data processing, parameters calculation (SpO2/PR algorithm), sensor interfacing and user interface. Cradle takes care of the data storage, data transfer and user interface. Host program is for data export and user interface. The system includes two embedded software and one host program, namely the Ring firmware, the Cradle firmware and the Belun Ring Management.

The device is a pulse oximeter that collects and records continuous data of oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate. These measurements are used in a clinical context to aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of various medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device consists of three parts: a Ring, a Cradle, and a Host program. The Ring and Cradle are physical hardware components responsible for signal acquisition, data storage, and data transfer, in addition to the software components (firmware and host program).

Based on the provided information, the Belun Ring BLR-100X is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue donations, derived from the human body, in order to provide information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or a congenital abnormality, or to monitor therapeutic measures.
  • Belun Ring BLR-100X Function: The Belun Ring BLR-100X is a pulse oximeter that measures oxygen saturation and pulse rate non-invasively by illuminating the skin and measuring light absorption. It does not examine specimens derived from the human body in vitro.

Therefore, the Belun Ring BLR-100X falls under the category of a non-invasive medical device rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic.
