Intended Use
The SCD RESPONSE Compression System is designed to apply sequential compression to the lower limbs to help prevent deep vein thrombosis in patients at risk.
Device Description
The SCD Response™ Compression System is a microprocessor controlled pneumatic compression device which provides intermittent, sequentially graduated pressure to compressible limb sleeves. When the sleeves compress the legs, the veins collapse, forcing the blood to move toward the heart. After compression, the sleeves deflate, allowing the veins to take shape again and fill with blood. The full cycle then repeats again.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a microprocessor-controlled pneumatic compression device with a fixed cycle, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or any adaptive or learning capabilities.

Yes
The device is designed to apply sequential compression to the lower limbs to help prevent deep vein thrombosis, which is a medical treatment or prevention for a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is designed to apply sequential compression to the lower limbs to help prevent deep vein thrombosis, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "microprocessor controlled pneumatic compression device" and mentions "compressible limb sleeves," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to apply sequential compression to the lower limbs to help prevent deep vein thrombosis. This is a physical intervention applied to the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device description details a pneumatic compression system that physically compresses the limbs. This is consistent with a therapeutic or preventative device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies

Nonclinical Tests - Comparative bench testing of the Kendall SCD Response™ Compression System with the predicate Sequel™ device found similar functional and operational performance characteristics. Such characteristics included compression, pressure control, timing sequence (default cycle), operating alarms, sleeve compatibility, safety, and software testing.
Clinical Tests - No clinical test results were submitted in support of this premarket notification submission.
Test Conclusions - Nonclinical test results of the Kendall SCD Response™ Compression System indicated substantial equivalence to the predicate Sequel™ System.

3. Statement of Substantial Equivalence

The Kendall SCD Response™ Compression System is substantially equivalent to the Kendall SCD Sequel™ Compression System in that the basis of operation for both devices is the inflation of expandable sleeves which in clinical practice are placed around a patient's lower limbs. Inflation of the sleeve is accomplished using air, and a cycle which operates to alternatively inflate and deflate the sleeves at predetermined intervals. The SCD Response™ and the predicate SCD Sequel™ controller are both electrically powered, and are connected to the inflatable sleeves by plastic tubing.

1

The Kendall SCD Response™ Compression System is substantially equivalent in function, operating parameters, and intended use to the commercially available Kendall SCD Sequel™ Compression System. A significant change between the two systems is that the Response™ system provides the traditional compression sequence of the predicate device with the capability of detecting the patient's venous refill time, and adjusts the decompression cycle to match the user refill time. Over time, this will result in less pooling of blood, and reduce further the potential for deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Description of the Device

The SCD Response™ Compression System is a microprocessor controlled pneumatic compression device which provides intermittent, sequentially graduated pressure to compressible limb sleeves. When the sleeves compress the legs, the veins collapse, forcing the blood to move toward the heart. After compression, the sleeves deflate, allowing the veins to take shape again and fill with blood. The full cycle then repeats again.

Intended Use of the Device 5.

The Kendall SCD Response™ Compression System is designed to apply sequential compression to the lower limbs to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients at risk.

6. Technological Characteristics

The technological characteristics of the SCD Response™ Compression System, e.g., overall design, materials, energy source, mode of operation, performance characteristics, etc. are similar to the predicate Sequel™ Device.

7. Performance Data

Nonclinical Tests - Comparative bench testing of the Kendall SCD Response™ Compression System with the predicate Sequel™ device found similar functional and operational performance characteristics. Such characteristics included compression, pressure control, timing sequence (default cycle), operating alarms, sleeve compatibility, safety, and software testing.

Clinical Tests - No clinical test results were submitted in support of this premarket notification submission.

Test Conclusions - Nonclinical test results of the Kendall SCD Response™ Compression System indicated substantial equivalence to the predicate Sequel™ System.
