Yes
The 510(k) summary explicitly states that the marketing language for certain features (2D Wall Motion Tracking and Auto Ejection Fraction) is being expanded to promote their support by artificial intelligence (AI) and/or machine learning (ML).
No
The device is described as a "Diagnostic Ultrasound System" indicated for "visualization of structures, and dynamic processes with the human body using ultrasound and to provide image information for diagnosis." Its primary function is diagnostic, not therapeutic.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states: "The Diagnostic Ultrasound System Aplio a550 Model CUS-AA550, Aplio a450 Model CUSAA450 and Aplio a Model CUS-AA000 is indicated for... to provide image information for diagnosis in the following clinical applications." Additionally, the "Device Description" section explicitly calls the devices "mobile diagnostic ultrasound systems."
No
The device is described as a "mobile diagnostic ultrasound system" and employs "a wide array of probes," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "visualization of structures, and dynamic processes with the human body using ultrasound and to provide image information for diagnosis". This describes an imaging device used on the patient, not a device that analyzes samples from the patient (which is the core function of an IVD).
- Device Description: The description details a "mobile diagnostic ultrasound system" that uses probes to interact with the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any of the typical components associated with in vitro diagnostics.
The device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, which is a different category of medical device than an IVD.
No
The provided text does not explicitly state that the FDA has reviewed, approved, or cleared a Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) for this specific device.
