The summary describes a standard Doppler flow probe and monitor system without mentioning any AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section is explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device is described as a monitor and probe system for blood flow, which is a diagnostic/monitoring function, not a therapeutic one.
No
The description states the device is "intended for monitoring blood flow," which is a measurement or observational function, not a diagnostic one. It tracks a physiological parameter rather than identifying or determining the nature of a disease or condition.
No
The device description explicitly mentions a "Swartz Doppler Flow Probe and Monitor System" and states the probe is supplied sterile and intended for one-time use. This indicates the device includes physical hardware components (the probe and monitor system) in addition to any potential software.
Based on the provided information, the Swartz Doppler Flow Probe and Monitor System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to monitor blood flow in vessels following surgical procedures. This is a direct measurement of a physiological process within the body.
- Device Description: The description reinforces the monitoring of blood flow in vessels.
- Input Imaging Modality: Doppler Ultrasound is used to assess blood flow in vivo.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "Vessels," which are structures within the body.
IVD devices are designed to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. The Swartz Doppler Flow Probe and Monitor System operates on the patient to directly measure blood flow.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Swartz Doppler Flow Probe and Monitor System is intended for monitoring blood flow in vessels following reconstructive microvascular procedures, re-implantation, and free-flap transfers. The Swartz Doppler Flow Probe is supplied sterile and is intended for onetime use.

§ 892.1570 Diagnostic ultrasonic transducer.
(a)
Identification. A diagnostic ultrasonic transducer is a device made of a piezoelectric material that converts electrical signals into acoustic signals and acoustic signals into electrical signals and intended for use in diagnostic ultrasonic medical devices. Accessories of this generic type of device may include transmission media for acoustically coupling the transducer to the body surface, such as acoustic gel, paste, or a flexible fluid container.(b)

Predicate Devices:
The Swartz Doppler Flow Probe is similar to predicate extravascular blood flow probes with respect to intended use, material composition, and method of operation.
Device Description:
The Swartz Doppler Flow Probe and Monitor System is intended for monitoring blood flow in vessels following reconstructive micro-vascular procedures, re-implantation, and free-flap transfers. The Swartz Doppler Flow Probe is supplied sterile and is intended for one-time use. The device is supplied sterile and is intended for one-Reasonable assurance of biocompatibility of time use. the materials comprising the Swartz Doppler Flow Probe is provided by their established history of use in medical product manufacturing.
Substantial Equivalence:
The device will be manufactured according to specified process controls and a Quality Assurance Program, undergoing packaging and sterilization procedures similar to devices currently marketed and distributed by Cook Pacemaker Corporation. This device is similar with respect to indications for use, materials and physical construction to predicate devices in terms of section 510 k) substantial equivalency.

Dear Dr. Fearnot:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls The general controls provisions of the Act include provisions Act (Act). requirements for registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practices, labeling, and prohibitions aqainst misbranding and adulteration.
This determination of substantial equivalence applies to the following transducers intended for use with the Swartz Doppler Flow Probe and Monitor System, as described in your premarket notification:
Transducer Model Number
