Device Description

More Information

No
The document describes a device using established technologies (photoplethysmography and Doppler) and does not mention AI, ML, or related concepts in the device description, performance studies, or key metrics. The performance studies focus on traditional clinical validation metrics.

No
The device is described as being used for screening for the absence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT), which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one. It analyzes physiological signals (photoplethysmography and Doppler) rather than applying a treatment.

Yes

The device is intended for "screening for the absence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limb," which is a diagnostic purpose. The "Summary of Performance Studies" also provides diagnostic metrics like Sensitivity, Specificity, NPV, and PPV, further indicating its diagnostic function.

No

The device description is not found, but the input modalities (photoplethysmography and bi-directional Doppler) strongly suggest the use of hardware sensors to acquire the data, making it a hardware-based device with potential software components for processing.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue). The intended use and device description mention venous photoplethysmography and bi-directional Doppler, which are techniques that measure physiological signals directly from the body (specifically, blood flow in the lower limb).
  • The device interacts directly with the patient's body. Photoplethysmography and Doppler require placing sensors or probes on the skin.
  • The purpose is to assess physiological function in vivo. The device is used for "venous and arterial vonous protoproxity" and "screening for the absence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limb," which are assessments of the circulatory system's function within the living body.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device that performs in vivo measurements, rather than an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 892.1550 Ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system.

(a)
Identification. An ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system is a device that combines the features of continuous wave doppler-effect technology with pulsed-echo effect technology and is intended to determine stationary body tissue characteristics, such as depth or location of tissue interfaces or dynamic tissue characteristics such as velocity of blood or tissue motion. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II.

This is a supplemental 510(k) submission for expansion of the previously cleared Indications for Use (venous and arterial assessment) to include "screening for the absence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limb."

Clinical data to support this expanded Indications for Use include studies comparing the Rheo Dopplex® II with duplex imaging and venography for the confirmation of the absence of a DVT in the lower limb, with additional studies to confirm repeatability and reproducibility. The studies indicate that the Rheo Dopplex® II provides the following:

  • . Sensitivity = 100%
  • . Specificity = 46%
  • . Negative Predictive Value = 100%
  • . Positive Predictive Value = 51%

The Rheo Dopplex® II user manual has been amended to include the procedure and parameters for the screening of the absence of a Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limb.

There is no change to the original form, fit, function, manufacture or clinical use of the Rheo Dopplex® II. All device safety data was included in the original premarket clearance.

Re: K984307 Rheo Dopplex II Regulatory Class: II/21 CFR 892.1550/21 CFR 870.2780 Product Code: 90 IYN/74 JOM Dated: December 1, 1998 Received: December 2, 1998

Dear Ms. Witko:

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 (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) 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 misbranding and adulteration,

This determination of substantial equivalence applies to the following transducers intended for use with the Rheo Dopplex II, as described in your premarket notification:

Transducer Model Number

VP4, VP5, VP8, VP10

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 Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General (GMP) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the FDA will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification does not affect any obligation you may have under sections 531 and 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 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 market.
