No
The summary describes a physical catheter and associated hardware for monitoring pressure and temperature, with no mention of AI/ML terms or data processing that would suggest such technology.
No
The device monitors physiological parameters (pressure and temperature) and facilitates procedures like amnioinfusion and fluid sampling, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition.
Yes
The device is used to "monitor intrauterine pressure" and "monitor intrauterine temperature," which are diagnostic activities used to assess a patient's condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as an intrauterine catheter, pressure transducer, thermistor, signal wires, introducer, reusable cable, and attachment strap.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to monitor intrauterine pressure and temperature, perform amnioinfusion, and amniotic fluid sampling during the intrapartum period. This is a direct interaction with the patient's internal environment for monitoring and intervention, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description details an intrauterine catheter with sensors and ports for direct use within the uterus. It does not describe a device that analyzes biological samples in a laboratory setting.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or other biological samples in vitro to diagnose a condition or provide information about a patient's health status.
Therefore, the Softrans® Temp UPC & System is a medical device used for direct patient monitoring and intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Softrans® Temp UPC & System may be used during the intrapartum period to monitor intrauterine pressure, to monitor intrauterine temperature, to amnioinfuse or to perform amniotic fluid sampling.

§ 884.2700 Intrauterine pressure monitor and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An intrauterine pressure monitor is a device designed to detect and measure intrauterine and amniotic fluid pressure with a catheter placed transcervically into the uterine cavity. The device is used to monitor intensity, duration, and frequency of uterine contractions during labor. This generic type of device may include the following accessories: signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, and component parts.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

An intrauterine catheter with a pressure transducer at the tip, a thermistor Description located near the tip, a port for amnioinfusion and amniotic fluid sampling, signal wires, and an introducer which is removed after placement. System includes a reusable cable that contains a rezero mechanism, cable check and temperature display unit. An attachment strap is provided.
Catheters are packaged within a PETG tray with a heat sealed tyvek lid. Unit of sale is a case of 10 IUPC's.
Cables are packaged in protective wrap and corrugated shippers.
The Softrans® Plus System is used to obtain direct internal measurements of Intended Use the intensity, duration, and frequency of uterine contractions during labor and to provide continuous monitoring and display of patient intrauterine temperature.
The catheter rests in the amniotic fluid between the fetus and uterine wall. During uterine contractions, the amniotic fluid is compressed; this pressure is transferred through the fluid and measured by the pressure transducer located at the tip of the catheter. The pressure signal is sent to the fetal monitor via the cable. The catheter also may be used for amnioinfusion of fluid into the uterus to enhance amniotic fluid volume, or for amniotic fluid sampling.
Intrauterine temperature is sensed by a thermistor located in the catheter. The return signal from the thermistor is sent to the temperature display unit located on the cable.
The intended use and application of Softrans® Plus IUPC System described Physical and Technical in this submission is substantially equivalent to Softrans® IUPC System currently manufactured and marketed by Graphic Controls. Both systems Comparison measure uterine pressure by means of a pressure transducer located at the tip of an intrauterine catheter. The patient contacting surfaces and materials of the predicate and Softrans® Plus are identical.
In addition, Softrans® Plus has a temperature sensing mechanism near the catheter tip and a temperature display unit on the cable. The temperature sensing and display features of Softrans® Plus are substantially equivalent in technology and functionality to Welch Allyn (DIATEK) SureTemp Thermometer.
Performance FDA has not established special controls or performance standards for this Summary device. Graphic Controls has established its own specifications and the product meets or exceeds those specifications.
Biocompatibility This device was subjected to biocompatibility testing and the data was Testing submitted with the predicate device notification. The device was found to be non-irritating, non-cytotoxin and non-sensitizing.
- Sterility Softran® Plus catheter will be sold as a sterile unit. The reusable cable is and supplied non sterile. The expiration date is visible on the labeling for each Shelf Life catheter.
