Intended Use
The DSPM-70 Blood Pressure Measurement System is suitable for measurement of real-time blood pressure data wherever indwelling blood pressure catheters and transducers are currently used for management of intraoperative and post-surgical critically ill patients. The information measured is suitable for use in derivation of blood pressure parameters such as heart rate, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and mean pressure, Not to be used where there is the potential for accidental entry of the catheter into the heart or other site in the body where patient safety may be compromised. The transmitter portion of the product is intended to be secured to the skin with tape with the distal tip of the pressure sensing catheter placed in the vasculature at a physician specified site. The system is intended to be limited to use in a single patient for less than 7 days. The external equipment may be reused. While the DSPM-70 is indicated for 7 days use, research has shown that in some patient populations, risk of infection increases when indwelling catheters remain in use for longer than 72 hours. Duration of use should be determined by institutional guidelines and consideration of various sources of risk to the patient. The DSPM-70 has no feature that provides the ability to draw blood from the patient.

Device Description
The DSI Blood Pressure Measurement System (DSPM-70) consists of the following components: 1. Pressure Transmitter with Catheter 2. External Data Receiver 3. Analog Adapter 4. Ambient Pressure Reference 5. External Power Supply 6. Signal Detector 7. Replacement Gcl. The pressure transmitter is a small anatomically disc-shaped device that houses the power source (battery), circuitry, RF coil and pressure sensing diaphragm. The transmitter device is intended to be placed during surgery on the chest and secured with tape. It is a short duration non-permanent product. A small diameter catheter is integrated with the transmitter and functions as the pressure conduit between the blood stream and the device. This catheter is filled with a fluid and the distal tip is sealed with a biocompatible gel. The gel transmits the pressure of the blood to the internal catheter fluid which, in turn, transmits the pressure to the device. The External Data receiver contains a specific RF antennae which receives the signals from the transmitter. The data from the device is received and recorded for physician use. The external receiver does not process the data or make any data calculations. The external unit is powered by the Power Supply. The Analog Adapter is an interface between the single channel transmitter and external analog recording instruments. The Analog Adapter along with the Ambient Pressure Reference discussed below, provide a calibrated analog signal allowing easy connection to most computerized data acquisition systems or strip chart recorders. The Ambient Pressure Reference component of the system provides continuous measurement of ambient barometric pressure. Continuous patient blood pressure is the difference between the pressure measured by the device and the ambient barometric pressure in the room. The power supply is a 110 VAC adapter that plugs into a standard outlet and connects to the receiver. The power supply is rated at 110 VAC and 60 Hz. It has been designed to meet UL and CSA requirements. The signal detector is a device that can be used by the physician as a tool to determine if the device is operating or in standby mode. The transmitter operates at a specific frequency range that is detected by the signal detector. If the signal is detected, the signal detector emits an audible tone.

No
The description focuses on hardware components and basic signal transmission and recording, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data processing or analysis.

No

The device is a blood pressure measurement system, which gathers real-time physiological data (blood pressure parameters, heart rate) for management of patients; it does not provide any therapeutic effect.

Yes

The device measures real-time blood pressure data and derives parameters like heart rate, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and mean pressure, which are used for the management of patients. Gathering and interpreting this physiological information for patient management is a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly lists multiple hardware components including a pressure transmitter with catheter, external data receiver, analog adapter, ambient pressure reference, external power supply, and signal detector.

Based on the provided information, the DSPM-70 Blood Pressure Measurement System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This testing is performed outside the body (in vitro).
  • DSPM-70 Function: The DSPM-70 system measures blood pressure directly within the patient's vasculature using an indwelling catheter. This is an in vivo measurement, meaning it takes place inside the living body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "measurement of real-time blood pressure data wherever indwelling blood pressure catheters and transducers are currently used." This describes a direct physiological measurement within the patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter placed in the bloodstream and a transmitter secured to the skin, all working to measure pressure within the body.

Therefore, the DSPM-70 is a device for in vivo physiological monitoring, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Materials

All materials used in the manufacture of the DSI system are biocompatible and have been used in numerous previously cleared products.

Summary of Substantial Equivalence

The Blood Pressure Measurement System offers the physician a means to monitor the intra-vascular pressure at specific locations determined by the physician during and after surgery.

The DSI system is equivalent to the Millar Mikro-Tip pressure measuring catheter systems. The catheter is placed in the vasculature and measures the intra-vascular pressure. The data is monitored and recorded on an external unit. The clinical indications for use, basic overall function, methods of manufacturing, and materials used are substantially equivalent. DSI believes the Blood Pressure Measurement System is substantially equivalent to existing marketed devices.

The transmitter portion of the product is intended to be secured to the skin with tape with the distal tip of the pressure sensing catheter placed in the vasculature at a physician specified site.

The system is intended to be limited to use in a single patient for less than 7 days. The external equipment may be reused.

While the DSPM-70 is indicated for 7 days use, research has shown that in some patient populations, risk of infection increases when indwelling catheters remain in use for longer than 72 hours. Duration of use should be determined by institutional guidelines and consideration of various sources of risk to the patient.

The DSPM-70 has no feature that provides the ability to draw blood from the patient.
