No.
The document explicitly states "Not Found" for mentions of AI, DNN, or ML, and describes the algorithm as using "unobstructed view of the subject's torso captured from a camera to calculate the RR from torso motion," which suggests traditional signal processing rather than an AI model.
No.
The device is described as a software library for contactless spot-checking of Respiration Rate (RR) as a data point in overall patient assessment, not for direct treatment or therapy.
No.
The device is intended for spot checking of Respiration Rate (RR) as a data point in the overall assessment of the patient and explicitly states, "It is not intended for continuous patient monitoring system or as the sole method of checking the physical health of the patient, nor as an apnea monitor, but as a part of a framework which mandates periodic checks by a health care professional to ensure appropriate clinical diagnosis and treatment can be reached." This indicates it provides information to aid, but not make, a diagnosis.
Yes
The device is a software-only medical device because the description explicitly states it is a "software library" (VitalSigns Camera Medical Library
and Philips VSC-MEDlib
) that is "integrated into a customer application" and "used in conjunction with a camera" which "can be part of another platform or as part of a medical device," indicating it does not include hardware. Its function is to incorporate an algorithm to calculate RR from a video stream.
No.
This device measures respiration rate from a video stream of the torso, which is a physiological measurement of the human body, not an examination of specimens derived from the human body for diagnostic purposes.

Device Description
The Philips VitalSigns Camera Medical Library (hereafter known as Philips VSC-MEDlib) is a software library that shall be used in conjunction with a camera which can be part of another platform or as part of a medical device. The Philips VSC-MEDlib incorporates an algorithm which allow for automatic, contactless measuring of Respiration Rate (RR). Philips VSC-MEDlib utilizes the video stream of an unobstructed view of the subject's torso captured from a camera to calculate the RR from torso motion. The video stream can be captured during a video consult or health screening which should always be conducted in the presence of a physician or other Health Care Professional (HCP). The patient must be properly positioned in front of the camera, sitting still and in an adequately lit environment. From a video stream that typically lasts 60 seconds or less, a spot measurement is taken.

the subject's torso captured from a camera to calculate the RR from torso motion. The video stream can be captured during a video consult or health screening which should always be conducted in the presence of a physician or other Health Care Professional (HCP). The patient must be properly positioned in front of the camera, sitting still and in an adequately lit environment. From a video stream that typically lasts 60 seconds or less, a spot measurement is taken.
Device Indications for Use:
Philips VSC-MEDlib has the following indications for use:
VitalSigns Camera Medical Library is a software library that can be integrated into a customer application for use during virtual consults or health screening. It is intended for spot checking of Respiration Rate (RR) in an automatic contactless manner as a data point in the overall assessment of the patient. It is used under the supervision of a health care professional, either in the home or in a clinical environment when the subject is still and positioned properly in front of the camera (Samsung Galaxy A20e), which is placed on a stable surface in an adequately lit environment.
It is intended to be used on patients aged 22 years and older that classify as ASA I (American Society of Anesthesiologists), which is defined as a normal healthy patient, non-smoking and no or minimal alcohol use.
It is not intended for continuous patient monitoring system or as the sole method of checking the physical health of the patient, nor as an apnea monitor, but as a part of a framework which mandates periodic checks by a health care professional to ensure appropriate clinical diagnosis and treatment can be reached.
Device Technological Characteristics:
Philips VSC-MEDlib employs the same fundamental technology as implemented in the currently marketed predicate device, Thora-3Di, Model T-01 (K151940). The fundamental technological are similar, such that both devices analyze video images captured from a digital camera (optical sensor) of a patient positioned in the camera view, to measure their respiratory rate. Both devices analyze torso movement in order to obtain the RR.
Compared to the predicate device:
- Thora-3Di, Model T-01 is a fully implemented user interface system, whereas Philips VSC-MEDlib is not since it is intended to be further integrated into a device from which it would be operated.
- The camera is in a fixed (articulable) installation for Thora-3Di, Model T-01 whereas in Philips VSC-MEDlib it is not.
These differences do not impact the safety and effectiveness of the device, nor do they raise different questions of safety and effectiveness compared to the predicate.
