Intended Use
The proposed device is to be used to improve the return circulation of body fluid that has pooled in one or more of a patient's extremities. This treatment reduces debilitating pain, swelling, ulceration, and risk of dermatological impact, infection, and amputation. Compression pumps of various kinds are in wide use in hospitals, clinics, patient homes, and elsewhere for treating acute and chronic fluid accumulation disorders. Complies with physician-prescribed treatment pressures.
Device Description
This is an electromechanical pneumatic device that employs a compressor and precision timers, regulators, and gages to sequentially inflate a sleeve appliance that fits over the patient's extremity. This unit delivers a calibrated gradient pressure. The device is approximately 10"W x 6.75"H x 5.6"D and weighs less than 15 Ibs.

No
The description focuses on electromechanical components and calibrated pressure delivery, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

Yes.
The device's intended use is to treat various medical conditions such as pain, swelling, and ulceration by improving fluid circulation, which categorizes it as therapeutic.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an electromechanical pneumatic device used for treatment, specifically to improve return circulation and reduce pain, swelling, etc., by sequentially inflating a sleeve. It does not perform any diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "electromechanical pneumatic device that employs a compressor and precision timers, regulators, and gages" and has physical dimensions and weight, indicating it is a hardware device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

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 detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The provided description clearly states that this device is an electromechanical pneumatic device that applies external pressure to a patient's extremity using an inflatable sleeve. It works by physically compressing the limb to improve fluid circulation.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not involve the collection or analysis of any biological samples from the patient. It directly interacts with the patient's body externally.

Therefore, based on the intended use and device description, this device falls under the category of a therapeutic or physical medicine device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description

This is an electromechanical pneumatic device that employs a compressor and precision timers, regulators, and gages to sequentially inflate a sleeve appliance that fits over the patient's extremity. This unit delivers a calibrated gradient pressure. The device is approximately 10"W x 6.75"H x 5.6"D and weighs less than 15 Ibs. This device is a new state-of-the-art sequential gradient compression pump and appliance system which produces better results than non-gradient sequential or single-pressure systems currently in use. This device allows the adjustment of individual cell pressures and dwell times. The proposed device is factory-preset for a maximum pressure less than 101 mm Hg.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

non-clinical test data:

  • Cell pressures of prototype device were measured comparing on-board gauge readings to a calibrated Hg manometer.
  • Pressures in each individual cell reach the prescribed setting within ±5mm Hg from the panel gage reading.
  • Pressures in each cell reach the prescribed setting for that individual cell 10 or more seconds before the next cell is activated.
  • Maximum pressure in the proximal cell (cell C) is reached before the end of the cycle and, thus, sustained.

clinical test data: not applicable
