Intended Use
The Morphee Plus Alpha is intended to manage obstructive sleep apnea by delivering air pressure through a tube and mask. It is intended for use in either the hospital or home environment.
Device Description
The Morphee Plus Alpha System consists of a line powered control unit, an air tube and a patient mask. The mask is attached to the patient covering the nose and secured with straps. The air tube attaches to the mask and the control unit allowing airflow from the control unit to the mask as well as respitory sensing by the control unit. The control unit offers both continous (CPAP) and automatice modes. In the continuous mode, the unit functions as a standard CPAP product. The auto mode allows the control unit to adjust the airway pressure based on the patient's respiration.

No
The description of the "auto mode" indicates an adjustment based on respiration, which is a common feature in non-AI/ML CPAP devices and doesn't explicitly mention or imply the use of AI/ML algorithms for this adjustment. There are no mentions of AI, ML, DNN, training sets, or test sets.

Yes
The device is intended to manage obstructive sleep apnea, which is a medical condition, by delivering air pressure for therapeutic effect.

No

The device is a therapeutic device (CPAP) for managing obstructive sleep apnea, not for diagnosing it. While it performs respiratory sensing, this is for adjusting therapy, not for producing a diagnostic output for a clinician.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a control unit, air tube, and patient mask, indicating it is not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, the Morphee Plus Alpha is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "manage obstructive sleep apnea by delivering air pressure through a tube and mask." This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a system that delivers air pressure and senses respiration. This aligns with a respiratory support device, not a device used to examine biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on sample analysis.

The Morphee Plus Alpha is clearly described as a device for managing a medical condition through physical means (air pressure delivery).
