More Information

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related technologies. The device description focuses on standard pulse oximetry technology and data transmission via Bluetooth. The performance studies describe standard testing for accuracy, safety, and usability, without mentioning any AI/ML-specific validation.

No.
The core function of this device is to non-invasively measure and display blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and Pulse Rate. It is a monitoring device, not one that directly treats a condition or provides therapy.

Yes

The device measures and displays patient blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and Pulse Rate, which are physiological parameters used to assess a patient's health status. The mobile application also acts as a "live data monitoring" and "data repository to refer back to previous reports ... to present to a physician or caregiver for review," indicating its role in providing data for medical assessment. While it does not include AI, DNN, or ML, the direct measurement of physiological parameters for the purpose of informing clinical decisions, and in comparison to a predicate device, solidifies its diagnostic nature.

No

The device description explicitly states the system contains both the "OxiWear Wearable" (a hardware component with a battery and sensor) and the "OxiWear Mobile Application" (software). The testing summary also includes hardware-related testing like biocompatibility, electrical safety, and bench testing of the wearable and charging case.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the living body (in vitro).
  • OxiWear's Function: The OxiWear system is a pulse oximeter that non-invasively measures blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate by transmitting and reflecting light through the ear. This is a measurement taken directly from the living body (in vivo), not from a sample in a laboratory setting.
  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as being used for "non-invasive, spot-checking and/or continuous data collection of adult and adolescent patients." This reinforces its in vivo nature.
  • Device Description: The description explicitly states it "non-invasively measures and displays patient blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and Pulse Rate."
  • Lack of Sample Handling: There is no mention of collecting or analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, the OxiWear system falls under the category of a non-invasive physiological monitoring device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
