Intended Use
Fetal Doppler is intended to detect fetal heart rate, and play the fetal heart sound. Fetal Doppler is indicated for use by health care professionals in hospital, clinic, community and home for singleton pregnancies after 12 weeks gestation.
Device Description
Fetal Doppler is intended to detect fetal heart beats, display fetal heart rate, and play the fetal heart sound. Fetal Doppler is indicated for use by used by health care professionals in hospital, clinic, community and home for singleton pregnancies after 12 weeks gestation. It is comprised of an ultrasonic signal transmitter and receiver, analog signal processing unit, FHR calculating unit, and LCD/TFT display control unit. It has audio output and can be connected with headphones or to a recorder with audio input. The Fetal Doppler is powered by a standard 1.5 V DC alkaline battery.
More Information

No
The device description outlines standard signal processing and calculation units, with no mention of AI or ML technologies. The performance studies also focus on traditional device testing.

No
The device is intended to detect and display fetal heart rate and sound, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. It does not treat or cure any condition.

No
The device detects and displays fetal heart rate and plays the heart sound, but it does not provide a diagnosis or interpret the significance of the findings. Its purpose is to monitor, not diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as an ultrasonic signal transmitter and receiver, analog signal processing unit, FHR calculating unit, LCD/TFT display control unit, and battery.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The Fetal Doppler described here uses ultrasonic technology to detect and display the fetal heart rate and play the fetal heart sound. This is a non-invasive method that interacts directly with the patient's body (specifically, the pregnant abdomen) rather than analyzing a sample taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to detect fetal heart rate and sound, which is a physiological measurement taken directly from the fetus within the mother.

Therefore, the Fetal Doppler falls under the category of a medical device that performs a diagnostic function in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro (in glass or outside the body).

Summary of Performance Studies

The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
Biocompatibility testing: The biocompatibility evaluation was conducted in accordance with the FDA Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff: Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process". Patient contacting materials were subjected to testing that included the following tests: Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5:2019), Skin Sensitization (ISO 10993-10:2010), Irritation (ISO 10993-10:2010).
Software Verification and Validation Testing: Software verification and validation testing was conducted and completed and software documentation was provided as recommended by FDA guidance document "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices," dated May 11, 2005 for a moderate software level of concern.
Electromagnetic Compatibility and Electrical Safety: The subject device models were assessed for conformity with the relevant requirements of the following standards and found to comply: ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1:2005/(R) 2012 and A1:2012, C1:2009/(R) 2012 and A2:2010/(R) 2012 Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance.; IEC 60601-1-2:2014 (Fourth Edition) Medical electrical equipment – Part 1-2: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral Standard: electromagnetic disturbances - Requirements and tests.; IEC 60601-1-11 Edition 2.0 2015-01 Medical electrical equipment - Part 1-11: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral Standard: Requirements for medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment.
Performance Testing: The following testing is provided to support the safety and performance of the subject device: Use Life Testing, Battery Life Testing, Battery Indicator Testing, Testing per IEC 60601-2-37 Edition 2.1 2015 Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-37: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of ultrasonic medical diagnostic and monitoring equipment. The acoustic output measurement methodology as recommended in FDA guidance document "Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers" dated June 27, 2019 was followed for Track 1 devices.

§ 884.2660 Fetal ultrasonic monitor and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A fetal ultrasonic monitor is a device designed to transmit and receive ultrasonic energy into and from the pregnant woman, usually by means of continuous wave (doppler) echoscopy. The device is used to represent some physiological condition or characteristic in a measured value over a period of time (e.g., perinatal monitoring during labor) or in an immediately perceptible form (e.g., use of the ultrasonic stethoscope). This generic type of device may include the following accessories: signal analysis and display equipment, electronic interfaces for other equipment, patient and equipment supports, and component parts. This generic type of device does not include devices used to image some relatively unchanging physiological structure or interpret a physiological condition, but does include devices which may be set to alarm automatically at a predetermined threshold value.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
