MAIA is intended for taking digital images of a human retina without the use of a mydriatic agent.
Device Description
MAIA is intended for taking digital images of a human retina without the use of a mydriatic agent. The device works with a dedicated software application, operates as a standalone unit, integrates a multitouch display, a push-button and is provided with an external power supply. MAIA operates in non-mydriatic conditions, i.e. without the need of pharmacological dilation and is intended for prescription use only The key functional elements of the device are: - the device base, - the device optical head, - the headrest, - the chinrest, - the multi-touch display, - the embedded software, - patient push-button, - the power supply and its power cable. The device acquires confocal retinal images illuminating the retina of the patient's eye, with visible light for imaging purposes and with infrared light for imaging purposes, focusing and retinal tracking. A specific feature of MAIA is the pupil tracking. The patient's pupils are illuminated and viewed by a different optical system; two cameras track the pupil's movements and allow for automatic alignment of the optical head with the eye position. From an imaging point of view, an important characteristic of MAIA is that it is a confocal instrument: this means that the illumination of the retina is focused on the same plane of the acquisition (same focus). Compared to traditional imaging, where the entire specimen is flooded evenly in light, a confocal illumination system is able to focus the illuminating light on the same focus plane (conjugate plane) of the acquisition optics. Another important characteristic of MAIA is the use of white light to illuminate the retina. The result of the combination of confocal imaging and white light obtained in MAIA is the acquisition of sharp, detailed, naturally colored retinal images. This medical device product has functions subject to FDA premarket review as well as functions that are not subject to FDA premarket review. For this application, the product has also functions that are not subject to FDA premarket review; FDA assesses those functions only to the extent that they either could adversely impact the safety and effectiveness of the functions subject to FDA premarket review or they are included as a labeled positive impact that was considered in the assessment of the functions subject to FDA premarket review. The "other function" of the device is the automatic perimetry (Product Code HPT, 510(K) Exempt), that allows the measurement of retinal threshold sensitivity and the analysis of fixation. This function consists in projecting light stimuli at different intensities together with a uniform light background; the device records the pressures of the pushbutton by the tested patient when he detects such stimuli, as in Standard Automated Perimetry test. With its retinal tracking, for all the duration of the exam, MAIA acquires infrared images of the retina and detects its movement, to correct the position for the stimuli, reducing the positioning error that might occur if the patient has poor fixation stability.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes standard image acquisition and tracking technology, with no mention of AI or ML for image analysis, diagnosis, or other functions beyond basic device operation and tracking. The "automatic perimetry" function is described as a standard automated perimetry test based on patient input.

No.
The device is intended for taking digital images and performing perimetry tests, which are diagnostic functions, not therapeutic.

Yes

The device explicitly includes an "automatic perimetry" function which allows for the "measurement of retinal threshold sensitivity and the analysis of fixation," indicating its use in assessing visual function and identifying potential abnormalities, which are diagnostic activities.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a device base, optical head, headrest, chinrest, multi-touch display, patient push-button, power supply, and power cable. While it includes embedded software, it is not solely software.

Based on the provided text, the MAIA device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "taking digital images of a human retina". This is an in-vivo (within a living organism) imaging procedure, not an in-vitro (outside of a living organism) diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details an ophthalmic imaging device that interacts directly with the patient's eye to acquire images. This is consistent with an in-vivo device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in-vitro diagnostics.

The device is clearly described as a medical device for ophthalmic imaging and perimetry, which are in-vivo procedures.

Device description

MAIA is intended for taking digital images of a human retina without the use of a mydriatic agent.

The device works with a dedicated software application, operates as a standalone unit, integrates a multitouch display, a push-button and is provided with an external power supply.

MAIA operates in non-mydriatic conditions, i.e. without the need of pharmacological dilation and is intended for prescription use only

The key functional elements of the device are:

  • the device base,
  • the device optical head,
  • the headrest,
  • the chinrest,
  • the multi-touch display,
  • the embedded software,
  • patient push-button,
  • the power supply and its power cable.

The device acquires confocal retinal images illuminating the retina of the patient's eye, with visible light for imaging purposes and with infrared light for imaging purposes, focusing and retinal tracking.

A specific feature of MAIA is the pupil tracking. The patient's pupils are illuminated and viewed by a different optical system; two cameras track the pupil's movements and allow for automatic alignment of the optical head with the eye position.

From an imaging point of view, an important characteristic of MAIA is that it is a confocal instrument: this means that the illumination of the retina is focused on the same plane of the acquisition (same focus). Compared to traditional imaging, where the entire specimen is flooded evenly in light, a confocal illumination system is able to focus the illuminating light on the same focus plane (conjugate plane) of the acquisition optics.

Another important characteristic of MAIA is the use of white light to illuminate the retina.

The result of the combination of confocal imaging and white light obtained in MAIA is the acquisition of sharp, detailed, naturally colored retinal images.

This medical device product has functions subject to FDA premarket review as well as functions that are not subject to FDA premarket review.

For this application, the product has also functions that are not subject to FDA premarket review; FDA assesses those functions only to the extent that they either could adversely impact the safety and effectiveness of the functions subject to FDA premarket review or they are included as a labeled positive impact that was considered in the assessment of the functions subject to FDA premarket review.

The "other function" of the device is the automatic perimetry (Product Code HPT, 510(K) Exempt), that allows the measurement of retinal threshold sensitivity and the analysis of fixation.

7

This function consists in projecting light stimuli at different intensities together with a uniform light background; the device records the pressures of the pushbutton by the tested patient when he detects such stimuli, as in Standard Automated Perimetry test.

With its retinal tracking, for all the duration of the exam, MAIA acquires infrared images of the retina and detects its movement, to correct the position for the stimuli, reducing the positioning error that might occur if the patient has poor fixation stability.

Substantial Equivalence Discussion

Indications of use statements of both the proposed predicate device and the subject device are reported below.

COMPASS is intended for taking digital images of a human retina without the use of a mydriatic agent and for measuring retinal sensitivity, fixation stability and the locus of fixation. It contains a reference database that is a quantitative tool for the comparison of retinal sensitivity to a database of known normal subjects.

MAIA is intended for taking digital images of a human retina without the use of a mydriatic agent.

For what concerns indications for use, MAIA is substantially equivalent to the predicate device COMPASS. The only differences between the subject device MAIA and the proposed predicate (COMPASS, K150320) are the references to features that are not subject to FDA premarket review.

MAIA is technologically equivalent to the predicate device COMPASS.

MAIA has the same technology as the predicate device COMPASS, including design, materials, and principle of operation. Fundus Perimetry is the technological principle for both the subject and primary predicate device. It is based on continuous imaging of the retina using infrared illumination, to enable compensation of eye movements during exams. At a high level, the subject and primary predicate device are based on the same technological elements.

Indeed, the performance of the fundus imaging function in MAIA can be inferred from the performance data of the COMPASS device, as they are technologically identical.

Based on the non-clinical tests (i.e. bench tests), MAIA is safe and performs as intended when used according to its indications for use and in accordance with its labeling. It performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device COMPASS (K150320).

Bench tests performed and submitted provide complete evidence of safety and performance of MAIA. Notably, the consensus standards used hereby are the same used for the predicate device COMPASS (K150320), apart from the adoption of newer edition, as applicable.

The MAIA device has undergone a series of rigorous tests and validations to ensure that its safety and performance are at least equivalent to the predicated device COMPASS.

Electromagnetic compatibility testing confirmed that the device does not interfere with other electronic equipment and is adequately immune to electromagnetic disturbances.

Basic safety evaluations showed that the device poses no risk of electrical shock, fire, or mechanical hazards.

10

Functional safety tests verified that the device operates correctly and that any potential faults do not lead to hazardous situations.

Performance testing, based on ISO 15004-1, ANSI Z80.36, ISO 12866 standards, demonstrated that the device meets the specified requirements for ophthalmic instruments.

Usability testing indicated that the device can be used safely and effectively by the intended users under expected use conditions.

Biocompatibility tests, along with the packaging and environmental conditions validations, demonstrated that the device is safe and performs according to its intended use.

The software embedded in the MAIA device was validated according to IEC 62304, ensuring that it meets the requirements for medical device software. Security penetration testing was conducted to identify and mitigate potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and labeling validation confirmed that the device provides the necessary information for safe and effective use.

These comprehensive testing and validation activities provide evidence that the MAIA device is as safe as and performs as well as the proposed predicate device COMPASS (K150320).

No clinical tests were needed.

Conclusion

Based on the information contained within this submission, it is concluded that the MAIA is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate device already in interstate commerce within the USA, with a safety and effectiveness profile that is similar to the predicate device.
