Yes
The description mentions a "hybrid closed loop approach (automated basal insulin delivery with manual bolusing for meals)", which strongly implies an algorithm is used to automate insulin delivery based on CGM data. While the terms AI/ML are not explicitly used, this type of automated control system in a medical device often utilizes machine learning or advanced algorithms that fall under the umbrella of AI. The absence of explicit AI/ML mentions in the "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section is noted, but the core functionality described points towards an AI/ML-driven control system.
Yes
CamAPS FX manages glucose levels of people with type 1 diabetes which is a medical condition, making it a therapeutic device.
No
The device is described as a mobile app for managing glucose levels, not for diagnosing a condition. It assists in treatment (automated basal insulin delivery), rather than identifying a disease or condition.
Yes
The device is described solely as a "mobile app" and its intended use is to manage glucose levels using a hybrid closed loop approach, which is a software-driven function. While it requires external hardware (insulin pump and CGM) to function, the device itself, as described, is the software application.
Based on the provided information, the CamAPS FX device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use of CamAPS FX is to manage glucose levels in people with type 1 diabetes by controlling insulin delivery based on CGM data. It does not involve the analysis of biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
- The description focuses on managing a physiological condition. The device's function is to automate basal insulin delivery and assist with meal bolusing, which are actions taken on the patient, not analyses performed on a sample from the patient.
- The inputs are from a CGM and insulin pump. These are devices that measure glucose levels in vivo (in the body) and deliver insulin in vivo. The app processes this data to make decisions about insulin delivery, but it doesn't perform a diagnostic test on a sample.
Therefore, CamAPS FX falls under the category of a medical device used for treatment and management of a condition, rather than an in vitro diagnostic device used for testing biological samples.
Yes
The letter explicitly states, "FDA's substantial equivalence determination also included the review and clearance of your Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP)."
