Intended Use
Intended Use: The Stardust is a respiratory disorder diagnostic device that is intended to measure and record five parameters. These parameters are percent SpO2 (functional), pulse rate, oral/nasal airflow, respiratory effort, and body position (i.e., supine or non-supine). It can also be connected to a Respironics Virtuoso Smart CPAP System to record and display continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and ainway index level. The Stardust can be used as a stand-alone unit for recording data. It also interfaces with a commercially available IEC 950 compliant computer, which enables you to view data real-lime in a recording mode. The Stardust does not have any audible alarms and, therefore, should not be used for continuous monitoring of oxygen saturation or as a replacement for pulse oximeter monitors. Indications for Use: The Stardust is indicated for use in the diagnosis of respiratory disorders, such as sleep apnea.

No
The summary describes a device that measures and records physiological parameters for diagnostic purposes. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any advanced data processing techniques beyond basic recording and display. The performance studies focus on electrical safety, EMC, mechanical, and environmental testing, not on algorithmic performance.

No

The device is explicitly described as a "diagnostic device" and is indicated for the "diagnosis of respiratory disorders, such as sleep apnea," not for treatment.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "The Stardust is a respiratory disorder diagnostic device" and "The Stardust is indicated for use in the diagnosis of respiratory disorders, such as sleep apnea." Additionally, the "Device Description" section also refers to it as "A low-power, diagnostic, recording device".

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "low-power, diagnostic, recording device that interfaces with predefined sensors" and mentions "Electrical Safety, Electromagnetic Compatibility, Mechanical and Environmental Testing," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body. The Stardust device measures physiological parameters on the body (SpO2, pulse rate, airflow, respiratory effort, body position, CPAP, airway index). It does not analyze blood, urine, tissue, or other samples collected from the patient.
  • The intended use and device description focus on measuring and recording physiological signals. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples.
  • The parameters measured are physiological, not related to the analysis of biological specimens.

Therefore, the Stardust device falls under the category of a diagnostic device that measures physiological parameters, but it is not an IVD.

Device Name: Stardust

Intended Use/Indications for Use

Intended Use:

The Stardust is a respiratory disorder diagnostic device that is intended to measure and record five parameters. These parameters are percent SpO2 (functional), pulse rate, oral/nasal airflow, respiratory effort, and body position (i.e., supine or non-supine). It can also be connected to a Respironics Virtuoso Smart CPAP System to record and display continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and ainway index level.

The Stardust can be used as a stand-alone unit for recording data. It also interfaces with a commercially available IEC 950 compliant computer, which enables you to view data real-lime in a recording mode. The Stardust does not have any audible alarms and, therefore, should not be used for continuous monitoring of oxygen saturation or as a replacement for pulse oximeter monitors.

Software

The pulse oximetry data, raw infrared and red waveform data, pirflow data, respiratory effort data and position data can be viewed real-time on the computer using Respironics' custom Windows™-based software (SleepWare) provided with the Stardust. The software also enables the clinician to do some data analysis, which can be used to draw meaningful implications during sleep apnea analysis."

Indications for Use: The Stardust is indicated for use in the diagnosis of respiratory disorders, such as sleep apnea.

Environment of Use/Patient Population:

The Stardust is intended for the hospitallinstitutional environment (supervised) and the home (unsupervised) environment for patients weighing more than 30 kg. It is not intended for use with infants.

Contraindications:

  • The pulse oximeter module of the Stardust is not intended for use during magnetic resonance imaging . (MRI) procedures or in an MRI environment.
  • . As with any pulse oximeter, the pulse oximeter module of the Stardust is not intended for use on patients, such as heavy smokers, with high carbon monoxide (CO) blood content.
  • . The pulse oximeter module of the Stardust is not intended for use in any application requiring fractional saturation measurements.
  • . The pulse oximeter module of the Stardust is not intended for use as an apnea monitor.

* The software also enables the user to ...............................................................................................

  • . Create, edit, delete and print patient information
  • . View waveform recordings/ table data
  • . Edit waveform recordings
  • . Set event, bad, and wake markers
  • Perform data analysis using manual or auto-scoring (see below) .
  • . Print results graphically
  • . Set the recorder's internal real-time clock

  • Clear the recorder's memory .
  • Generate a patient report .
  • Display status, session #, battery voltage, memory usage .

Manual scoring lets the operator view the waveform recording , look at specific events and determine the event (type of apnea or hypopnea using his/her own judgement) based on the waveform or event parameters.

Automatic scoring classifies the event for a region of data or for the entire recording and using certain rules automatically displays the event type (type of apnea or hypopnea) on the screen. The rules for scoring can be set by the operator in terms of start parameters (parameters used to start the apnea or hypopnea such as minimum event duration and peak inspiratory value) and termination parameters used to terminate the apnea or hypopnea such as maximum event duration, peak inspiratory value, number of breaths to terminate event and maximum time between breaths).

For example,

  1. If the start parameters for apnea are set as

Minimum event duration

10 seconds

20% of local IRA.

Peak Inspiratory Value to start an event

then the scoring algorithm will classify any breath event with amplitude below 20% and with a minimum event duration of 10 seconds as an apnea.

  1. If the start parameters for hypopnea are set as

Minimum event duration .10 seconds

Peak Inspiratory Value to start an event 66%.

then the scoring algorithm will classify any breath event with amplitude below 66% and with a minimum event duration of 10 seconds as hypopnea.

  1. If the termination parameters for apnea are set as
Maximum event duration5 min
Peak Inspiratory Value to end an event40% of local IRA
Number of breaths to terminate an event1
Maximum Time between Breaths10 seconds,

then the scoring algorithm will stop the apnea classification whenever it encounters a duration of 5 minutes with the breath amplitude above 40% of the local IRA.

  1. If the termination parameters for apnea are set as
Maximum event duration5 min
Peak Inspiratory Value to end an event80% of local IRA
Number of breaths to terminate an event1
Maximum Time between Breaths10 seconds,

then the scoring algorithm will stop the hypopnea classification whenever it encounters a duration of 5 minutes with the breath amplitude above 80% of the local IRA.
