Yes
The document explicitly mentions "NerveTrack based on AI" and details the validation of an "AI algorithm".
No.
The device is described as a "diagnostic ultrasound system" intended for "clinical diagnosis of patients" and to "obtain ultrasound images and analyze body fluids." These functions are for diagnosis, not therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The diagnostic ultrasound system and probes are designed to obtain ultrasound images and analyze body fluids." It also mentions "clinical diagnosis of patients" and that the device "offers analysis packages that provide information that is used to make a diagnosis".
No
The device is described as a "diagnostic ultrasound system" and its function is to "acquire ultrasound data and to display the data". Ultrasound systems inherently involve hardware components (transducers, processing units, etc.) to generate and receive ultrasound waves and process the signals. The description of modes of operation and clinical applications further confirms it's a complete hardware/software system, not just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is designed to "obtain ultrasound images and analyze body fluids." While it analyzes body fluids, the primary function described is obtaining ultrasound images for clinical diagnosis based on anatomical structures and analysis packages.
- Device Description: The device description focuses on the acquisition and display of ultrasound data in various modes and the ability to measure anatomical structures and provide analysis packages.
- IVD Definition: An In Vitro Diagnostic device is defined as a medical device intended to be used in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue donations, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, a congenital abnormality, a predisposition to a medical condition, or to monitor therapeutic measures.
While the device analyzes body fluids, this analysis appears to be part of the broader ultrasound imaging and diagnostic process, rather than a standalone in vitro test performed on a specimen outside the body. The core function is imaging and measurement within the body.
The mention of "analyze body fluids" is a bit ambiguous in this context, but given the overwhelming focus on ultrasound imaging and the listed clinical applications which are all in vivo procedures, it's highly likely this refers to analysis of fluid collections or flow within the body as visualized by ultrasound, not laboratory testing of collected specimens.
No
The input does not contain explicit language stating that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a PCCP for this specific device.
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The diagnostic ultrasound system and probes are designed to obtain ultrasound images and analyze body fluids.
The clinical applications include: Fetal/Obstetrics, Abdominal, Gynecology, Intra-operative, Pediatric, Small Organ, Neonatal Cephalic, Adult Cephalic, Trans-raginal, Muscular-Skeletal (Conventional, Superficial), Urology, Cardiac Adult, Cardiac Pediatric, Thoracic, Trans-esophageal (Cardiac) and Peripheral vessel.

Ten anesthesiologists and five sonographers with more than 10 years of experience participated to establish the ground truth (GT) for the location of 8 different kinds of nerves. One anesthesiologist who scanned the ultrasound directly drew the GT of nerve location, and two or more other anesthesiologists and sonographers reviewed and confirmed that it was correct. If there was any mistake during the review, it was revised again.
Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The standalone performance of NerveTrack was evaluated for BMI (Body Mass Index) subgroups, which are potential subject and image confounder. For subgroup analysis, we divided BMI values into four groups according to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) definition for adult overweight & obesity. They are underweight (BMI
