The description focuses on converting optical transducer data to electrical signals and emulating a conventional fluidic transducer. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data processing or interpretation.
No
The device is a blood pressure monitor, which is a diagnostic device used to measure a physiological parameter (blood pressure), not a therapeutic device which is used to treat or cure a disease or condition.
Yes
The intended use explicitly states that the device is used in therapeutic and/or diagnostic procedures to continuously provide blood pressure measurements, which are a key diagnostic indicator.
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "electronic device" and a "self-contained unit" with physical inputs (fiber optic transducer connection) and outputs (communication with a patient monitor). It also mentions being powered by an AC adapter and having an internal battery, all indicating a hardware component.
Based on the provided information, the Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor Model BPM-30 is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The Endophys BPM-30 directly measures blood pressure within the patient's artery using a fiber optic transducer. It does not analyze a sample taken from the body.
- The intended use describes monitoring physiological parameters in a patient. The device is used during procedures involving percutaneous vascular access to continuously provide blood pressure readings. This is a direct physiological measurement, not an in vitro test.
- The device description focuses on converting a physiological signal (optical pressure data) into an electrical signal for display and compatibility with patient monitors. This is a process of signal processing and display of a real-time physiological measurement.
Therefore, the Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor Model BPM-30 is a physiological monitoring device, not an IVD.

Device Description
The Endophys BPM-30 Blood Pressure Monitor is an electronic device that provides compatibility between a physiological fiber optic blood pressure sensor (transducer) and conventional invasive arterial blood pressure inputs to a standard physiological patient monitor. The device converts the optical transducer data to electrical signals that are interpreted by a conventional patient monitor and/or are displayed directly on the BPM-30. The BPM-30 accurately emulates a fluidic arterial blood pressure transducer and supplies electrical signals to its output that are indistinguishable from a conventional fluidic blood pressure transducer.
The BPM-30 is implemented as a self-contained unit that has a fiber optic transducer connection as an input source and communicates with a patient monitor as its output. The BPM acts to directly emulate the electrical interface characteristics of conventional fluidic blood pressure transducers (that patient monitors are compatible with) while providing much more precise blood pressure data derived from a fiber optic transducer placed within an artery. Electrically emulating a conventional fluidic transducer uniquely allows a fiber optic pressure sensor to be used with a wide variety of existing physiological patient monitors without modification of those monitors. Systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure values are also displayed directly on the BPM-30 every four seconds.
The BPM-30 is powered by a standard AC power adapter. The BPM-30 also has an internal battery supply that will automatically recharge and maintain operation during brief (up to 30 minutes) power interruptions. The BPM-30 is used outside of the sterile environment and has standard alerts and alarms.
The BPM-30 has an operating pressure range of -30 to 300 mmHg with an accuracy of ±1 mmHg plus ±1% of reading for pressures ≤ 50 mmHg and within ±3% of reading for pressures ≥ 50 mmHg

Device Description:
The Endophys BPM-30 Blood Pressure Monitor is an electronic device that provides compatibility between a physiological fiber optic blood pressure sensor (transducer) and conventional invasive arterial blood pressure inputs to a standard physiological patient monitor. The device converts the optical transducer data to electrical signals that are interpreted by a conventional patient monitor and/or are displayed directly on the BPM-30. The BPM-30 accurately emulates a fluidic arterial blood pressure transducer and supplies electrical signals to its output that are indistinguishable from a conventional fluidic blood pressure transducer.
The BPM-30 is implemented as a self-contained unit that has a fiber optic transducer connection as an input source and communicates with a patient monitor as its output. The BPM acts to directly emulate the electrical interface characteristics of conventional fluidic blood pressure transducers (that patient monitors are compatible with) while providing much more precise blood pressure data derived from a fiber optic transducer placed within an artery. Electrically emulating a conventional fluidic transducer uniquely allows a fiber optic pressure sensor to be used with a wide variety of existing physiological patient monitors without modification of those monitors. Systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure values are also displayed directly on the BPM-30 every four seconds.
The BPM-30 is powered by a standard AC power adapter. The BPM-30 also has an internal battery supply that will automatically recharge and maintain operation during brief (up to 30 minutes) power interruptions. The BPM-30 is used outside of the sterile environment and has standard alerts and alarms.
The BPM-30 has an operating pressure range of -30 to 300 mmHg with an accuracy of ±1 mmHg plus ±1% of reading for pressures ≤ 50 mmHg and within ±3% of reading for pressures ≥ 50 mmHg
Intended Use:
The Endophys BPM-30 Blood Pressure Monitor is meant to be used in minimally invasive vascular procedures and critical patient care situations where the accuracy and timeliness of arterial blood pressure measurements are important. It supports fiber optic transducers that are incorporated into the Endophys PressureSense™ hydrophilic coated Pressure Sensing Sheath (PSS3).

Indications for Use:
The Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor Model BPM-30 is intended to continuously provide systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure based on the output of the Endophys PSS3 Pressure Sensing Sheath in patients undergoing therapeutic and/or diagnostic procedures involving percutaneous vascular access. The Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor Model BPM-30 monitor is additionally intended for use in transport situations within hospital environments.
Summary of Technical Characteristics as Compared to the Predicate Device:
Blood Pressure Monitors, by nature, are instruments intended to provide clinicians with the physiological blood pressure of patients reported in milligrams of mercury (mmHg). Specialized computer based instruments have been developed which allow active monitoring of blood pressure during interventional procedures. Blood pressure monitoring using a fiber optic communication is the technological principle for both the subject and predicate devices. The technology requires use of a compatible intravascular pressure sensing sheath to provide this data to the clinician.
At a high level, the subject and predicate devices are based on the following same technological elements:
- . Calculates and displays hemodynamic (invasive blood pressure) data when attached to a compatible intravascular pressure sensing device (Endophys PSS3 Pressure Sensing Sheath)
- Optical signal (fiber optic) measurement of blood pressure ●
- Pressure measurement range -30 to 300 mmHg ●
- Pressure accuracy: System accuracy ±1 mmHg plus ±1% of reading for pressures ≤ 50 mmHg ● and within ±3% of reading for pressures ≥ 50 mmHg
The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices:
- Modification of device design to be compatible with FISO Technologies Inc. Fabrey-Perot 0 fiber optic pressure sensors and circuitry incorporated into the Endophys Pressure Sensing Sheath (PSS3)
- Combine the functionality of the daughterboard onto the main circuit board, which were . separate in the predicate device
- Addition of an internal battery supply that will automatically recharge and maintain 0 operation during brief (up to 30 minutes) patient transport or power interruptions

Performance Data
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence:
- o Software Verification
- Electrical Safety and Essential Performance Testing (IEC60601-1, IEC60601-1-8, o IEC60601-2-34)
- EMC Testing (IEC60601-1-2)
- Packaging Design Verification ●
- Package, Device, and Labeling Inspection ●
- Functional Testing ●
The modified Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor met all specified criteria and did not raise new safety or performance questions. Based on the design verification performance the modified Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor was found to have the safety and effectiveness profile that is similar to the predicate device.
Conclusion:
Endophys believes the proposed BPM-30 Blood Pressure Monitor is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device. The indications for use, methods of operation, design and materials used are either identical or substantially equivalent to the existing legally marketed predicate product.
