Intended Use
As with predicate devices indicated in this resubmittal (cardiac output monitors employing impedance plethysmography {DXG and DSB}), the IQ™ System is intended for use by qualified health care practitioners, under direction of a physician, for the non-invasive monitoring and management of cardiac function in a variety of medically accepted clinical applications. The IQ™ System (as well as predicate devices) is especially useful in cases where the invasive monitoring of cardiac output (e.g.: thermodilution) may compromise a given patient, is impractical, or otherwise contraindicated.
Device Description
"IQ™ System" Cardiac Output Monitor
More Information

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related terms, and the device description focuses on impedance plethysmography, a traditional method.

No.
The device is described as a "Cardiac Output Monitor" used for "non-invasive monitoring and management of cardiac function," which implies a diagnostic or monitoring role rather than direct treatment or therapy.

No
The device is a monitor for cardiac function, not a diagnostic device. It is used for "non-invasive monitoring and management of cardiac function."

No

The device description refers to a "System" and mentions predicate devices that are "cardiac output monitors employing impedance plethysmography." Impedance plethysmography is a hardware-based technology that requires physical contact with the patient to measure electrical impedance changes. This strongly suggests the device includes hardware components for data acquisition, making it not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as a "non-invasive monitoring and management of cardiac function." This involves monitoring physiological parameters directly from the patient's body, not analyzing samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue).
  • Device Description: The description simply states "IQ™ System" Cardiac Output Monitor, which aligns with a device used for direct patient monitoring.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any other typical components or processes associated with in vitro diagnostics.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device, based on the description, is a non-invasive monitoring device used on the patient's body.

§ 870.2770 Impedance plethysmograph.

(a)
Identification. An impedance plethysmograph is a device used to estimate peripheral blood flow by measuring electrical impedance changes in a region of the body such as the arms and legs.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a body composition analyzer which is not intended to diagnose or treat any medical condition, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.

Re: K981720/S1 IO System Trade Name: Requlatory Class: II Product Code: DSB Dated: November 17, 1998 Received: November 18, 1998

Dear Mr. Hamski:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbrandinq and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Druq Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. Please note:this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any

obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4586. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the requlation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597,

or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
