The Venue is a general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system for use by qualified and trained healthcare professionals or practitioners that are legally authorized or licensed by law in the country. state or other local municipality in which he or she practices, for ultrasound imaging, measurement. display and analysis of the human body and fluid. The users may or may not be working under supervision or authority of a physician. Users may also include medical students working under the supervision or authority of a physician during their education / training.
Venue is intended to be used in a hospital or medical clinic. Venue clinical applications include: abdominal (GYN and Urology), thoracic/pleural, ophthalmic. Fetal/OB, Small Organ (including breast, testes, thyroid), Vascular/Peripheral vascular, neonatal and adult cephalic, pediatric, musculoskeletal (conventional and superficial), cardiac (adults and pediatric), Transrectal, Transvaginal, Transesophageal, Intraoperative (vascular) and interventional guidance (includes tissue biopsy, fluid drainage, vascular and non-vascular access). Modes of operation include: B. M. PW Doppler, CW Doppler, Color M Doppler, Color M Doppler, Harmonic Imaging, Coded Pulse and Combined modes: B/M, B/Color M, B/PWD, B/Color/PWD, B/Power/PWD,B/CWD, B/Color/CWD.
The proposed Venue system is a general-purpose, Track 3, diagnostic ultrasound device, intended for ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid that provides digital acquisition, processing and display capabilities. Venue can be used in offices, clinics and hospitals.
The Venue is a mobile system with a small footprint that easily fits into tight spaces and positioned to accommodate the sometimes-awkward work settings of the point of care user.
The Venue has a high resolution color LCD monitor, with a simple, multi-touch user interface that makes the system intuitive. The single surface screen provides easy cleanability. Articulated monitor arm enables flexible display positions in order to be accessible and clearly visible in both user-standing and sitting positions.
The system is capable of displaying the patient's ECG trace synchronized to the scanned image. This allows the user to view an image from a specific time of the ECG signal which is used as an input for gating during scanning. The ECG signal can be input directly from the patient or as an output from an ECG monitoring device. ECG information is not intended for monitoring or diagnosis.
Barcode reader and RFID scanner are available as additional input devices.
The Venue has a battery that allows for scanning without the need to plug in to an electrical outlet.
System meets DICOM requirements to support users image storage and archiving needs and allows for output to printing devices.
The Venue utilizes a variety of linear, convex, and phased array transducers which provide high imaging capability, supporting all standard acquisition modes. Compatible biopsy kits can be used for needle-guidance procedures.
The system includes several automated tools designed to simplify and shorten the workflow time of the healthcare professional for some common assessments.
The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for a diagnostic ultrasound system (Venue). It does not contain information about acceptance criteria and a study that proves the device meets those criteria for software performance.
The document states:
- "The subject of this premarket submission, Venue, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence." (Page 10)
- The comparison is primarily focused on hardware, transducers, and general features, and states that the Venue system is substantially equivalent to a predicate device regarding "imaging capabilities, technological characteristics and safety and effectiveness." (Page 6)
Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, data provenance, expert qualifications, ground truth establishment, or multi-reader multi-case studies because this document does not present such a study. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, which often relies on non-clinical tests and comparisons rather than new clinical performance studies.
§ 892.1550 Ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system.
(a)
Identification. An ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system is a device that combines the features of continuous wave doppler-effect technology with pulsed-echo effect technology and is intended to determine stationary body tissue characteristics, such as depth or location of tissue interfaces or dynamic tissue characteristics such as velocity of blood or tissue motion. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II.
