cyberREN is a clinical data management system, designed specifically for nephrology, to replace the paper medical chart. Full chart replacement, i.e. a conversion from a paper medical record to an electronic medical record is at the option of the client. The cyberREN electronic chart essentially provides the functions of a data repository and data query / reporting system.
cyberREN is a clinical data management system designed for nephrology. It functions as a data repository and data query/reporting system, intended to replace paper medical charts. It is a multiuser, multidisciplinary system accessible via standard Windows 95 based computers. It saves, calculates, displays, and reports clinical information. Data is primarily entered manually by caregivers, but can also be received from networked systems like laboratory computers and dialysis machines (specifically the Fresenius 2008H). It calculates values such as weight gain, protein catabolic rate, percent urea reduction, KT/V dialysis efficacy index, and nutrition parameters. It supports general charting functions like patient demographics, problem lists, orders, medications, progress notes, consultations, and laboratory results reporting. It also supports charting for hemodialysis (treatment orders, session charting, access charting, scheduling) and peritoneal dialysis (orders, session charting, peritonitis charting, access charting). It can also be used to document transplant status and workup activities. cyberREN does not alter entered information, make treatment recommendations, influence dialysis machine operation, or provide diagnoses.
The provided text describes the "cyberREN" device, a clinical data management system for nephrology. However, the document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA, and it primarily focuses on the device's "Indications for Use" and its substantial equivalence to previously marketed devices. It does NOT contain the details required to answer your specific questions about acceptance criteria, device performance study details, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or ground truth establishment.
The document states that cyberREN is intended to:
- Replace paper medical charts in nephrology.
- Function as a data repository and data query/reporting system.
- Save and display clinical information (manually entered, from labs, or directly from Fresenius 2008H dialysis machines).
- Calculate a limited number of values (weight gain, protein catabolic rate, urea reduction, KT/V dialysis efficacy index, nutrition parameters).
- Report clinical information.
- Support general charting functions (patient demographics, problem lists, orders, medications, progress notes, consultations, laboratory results reporting, billable services, nutrition).
- Support hemodialysis management (treatment orders, session charting, access charting, schedule).
- Support peritoneal dialysis management (orders, session charting, peritonitis charting, access charting).
- Support transplant management (status, workup).
It explicitly states what cyberREN does not do:
- Logically alter information entered or imported.
- Make recommendations for treatment.
- Influence the operation of the Fresenius 2008H dialysis machine.
- Provide a diagnosis or selection of possible diagnoses.
Since the document is a regulatory clearance letter, it assumes the device manufacturer has performed these studies, but the details of those studies are not typically included in the public FDA 510(k) summary or this type of letter.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the given text.

networked systems, specifically laboratory results. Data describing the ongoing dialysis process is received directly from the Fresenius 2008H dialysis machine and entered into the cyberREN medical record. .
cyberREN calculates a limited number of values, based on laboratory calculate values data received and data entered manually. Calculated values are a summarized below:
- · weight gain between dialysis sessions, calculated with every new dialysis session charted
- protein catabolic rate, percent urea reduction, and the KT/V dialysis . efficacy index, typically calculated as a measure of observed treatment efficiency once per month based on patient weights and pre and post dialysis urea laboratory results.
- . nutrition parameters, e.g. desired calorific intake being the simple sum of recommendations entered by the caregiver, i.e. to account for normal metabolic consumption, activity, stress and desired weight gain. A calculation for desired protein intake is also carried out, based on the simple product of an ideal body weight and upper and lower limits of a protein intake range, both parameters entered by the caregiver. These values are displayed on the screen, together with the entered parameters upon which the calculation is based.
- display clinical information both data entered manually or received from other computer systems or dialysis machines are displayed at the cyberREN workplaces throughout the facility. Approximately 300 computer displays are provided to show various elements of the medical chart. Special displays combine information from several sections of the chart on a single display.
- report clinical information data entered manually or received from other computer systems may be compiled into a printed report, which contains information from

General Charting
-
cyberREN is used to register patients' personal information, contacts, patient demographics insurance carriers, social conditions, renal diagnoses, treatment institute, treatment modality; etc: ..........................................................................................................................................
cyberREN allows the medical staff to maintain a problem list for each patient problems patient. Other elements of the chart, e.g. medications, may be linked to one of the problems in the Problem List. -
orders/ order processing cyberREN registers orders initiated by the physician and presents these on further displays, where they are important for the caregiver. cyberREN also requires the physician to verify verbal or telephone orders, and allows caregivers to document that the orders have been completed.
-
cyberREN allows physicians to order medications by selecting the medications medication by name, and defining its dosage, route to be administered and frequency, among other parameters.
-
progress notes / patient encounters physicians and other caregivers may enter free text notes which describe the results of an encounter with the patient. The user may assign a CPT code to the patient encounter for billing purposes.
-
consultations cyberREN allows the caregiver to keep track of all consultations external to the treating facility. The nature and purpose of the consultation as well as the consulting physician and the consultation's results may be entered into and subsequently reported by the cyberREN system
-
laboratory results reporting cyberREN receives laboratory results for individual patients and displays these on lab result screens or on reports. Results may enter the cyberREN system through manual data entry or through automated electronic data import from a dedicated laboratory computer system or hospital system.

§ 876.5630 Peritoneal dialysis system and accessories.
(a)
Identification. (1) A peritoneal dialysis system and accessories is a device that is used as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions, and that consists of a peritoneal access device, an administration set for peritoneal dialysis, a source of dialysate, and, in some cases, a water purification mechanism. After the dialysate is instilled into the patient's peritoneal cavity, it is allowed to dwell there so that undesirable substances from the patient's blood pass through the lining membrane of the peritoneal cavity into this dialysate. These substances are then removed when the dialysate is drained from the patient. The peritoneal dialysis system may regulate and monitor the dialysate temperature, volume, and delivery rate together with the time course of each cycle of filling, dwell time, and draining of the peritoneal cavity or manual controls may be used. This generic device includes the semiautomatic and the automatic peritoneal delivery system.(2) The peritoneal access device is a flexible tube that is implanted through the abdominal wall into the peritoneal cavity and that may have attached cuffs to provide anchoring and a skin seal. The device is either a single use peritioneal catheter, intended to remain in the peritoneal cavity for less than 30 days, or a long term peritoneal catheter. Accessories include stylets and trocars to aid in the insertion of the catheter and an obturator to maintain the patency of the surgical fistula in the abdominal wall between treatments.
(3) The disposable administration set for peritoneal dialysis consists of tubing, an optional reservoir bag, and appropriate connectors. It may include a peritoneal dialysate filter to trap and remove contaminating particles.
(4) The source of dialysate may be sterile prepackaged dialysate (for semiautomatic peritoneal dialysate delivery systems or “cycler systems”) or dialysate prepared from dialysate concentrate and sterile purified water (for automatic peritoneal dialysate delivery systems or “reverse osmosis” systems). Prepackaged dialysate intended for use with either of the peritoneal dialysate delivery systems is regulated by FDA as a drug.
(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The following accessories are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9: A catheter finger grip that is non-patient contacting and intended for single use with a peritoneal catheter; a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) belt; and a catheter stand that does not include weigh scales.
