Intended Use
QLV-CMS provides quantitative information regarding the calculated dimensions and calculated performance characteristics of the left ventricle of the heart, imaged during angiographic x-ray procedures typically performed in cardiac cath labs. This information is suitable for use by physicians and scientists in the following applications: 1. Scientific and research studies, assessing the angiographic condition of patients and the results of device and drug therapies, 2. Review and analysis of patient angiographic imaging records, providing additional information to physicians and administrators.
Device Description
QLV-CMS performs quantitative analysis of angiograms (specific to the left ventricle) that are input to the system in formats that include digitized video (from 35 mm cinefilm) and DICOM-file standard formats. The analysis results of the OLV-CMS operation may be printed or archived in files for export to a general-purpose database.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes quantitative analysis and image processing but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like deep learning or neural networks. There is also no information about training or test sets, which are typically associated with ML development.

No
The device provides diagnostic information (quantitative measurements) but does not directly treat or prevent a disease or condition. It is used for scientific and research studies, and the review and analysis of patient angiographic imaging records.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device "provides quantitative information regarding the calculated dimensions and calculated performance characteristics of the left ventricle of the heart," which is used by physicians and scientists for "review and analysis of patient angiographic imaging records, providing additional information to physicians and administrators." This information provides additional insights into a patient's condition, which aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device.

Yes

The device description explicitly states that it performs quantitative analysis of angiograms that are input to the system in various digital formats. It does not mention any proprietary hardware or physical components included as part of the device itself, only the software's function of processing existing image data.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The QLV-CMS analyzes images (angiograms) of the left ventricle of the heart. It does not analyze biological specimens taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide quantitative information about the dimensions and performance characteristics of the left ventricle based on these images, for use in research, review, and analysis of patient records. This is image analysis, not in vitro testing.

Therefore, the QLV-CMS falls under the category of a medical device that performs image analysis, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

2) Device Name: Quantitative Analysis of Left Ventricular Angiograms (QLV)
Common Name: QLV-CMS
Device Class. Name: System, X-ray, Angiographic
Regulation Number: 21 CFR 892.1600 (90 IZI; Class II)
  1. Predicate Device(s) : Cardiovascular Measurement System - (CMS) 510(k) Number: K940172

  2. Description of the device:

QLV-CMS performs quantitative analysis of angiograms (specific to the left ventricle) that are input to the system in formats that include digitized video (from 35 mm cinefilm) and DICOM-file standard formats. The analysis results of the OLV-CMS operation may be printed or archived in files for export to a general-purpose database.

5) Intended use:

OLV-CMS allows the user to work productively in the increasingly digital world of images that are archived in DICOM formats as a result of angiography procedures. The QLV-CMS product is used to select images of the left ventricle for quantitative analysis, resulting in measurements of the selected images. The quantitative information is provided for use by physicians and scientists in both research and clinical settings. Image archiving and administration purposes are supported with the QLV-CMS product as well.

6) Substantial equivalence information:

The OLV-CMS software, as a software package, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device "Cardiovascular Measurement System - CMS" by utilizing the same technical standards and image analysis algorithms for efficient, accurate and reproducible results. The differences in the devices are noted as:

a. QLV-CMS now runs on Windows NT, as compared with the predicate device operation on MS-DOS, and

b. QLV-CMS is a modular software package, as compared with the fully-integrated predicate device. Image handling (review, playback, selection) may now accomplished with other modular software packages, including the CMS-View from MEDIS.

Conclusion respecting safety and effectiveness:

It is the opinion of MEDIS medical imaging systems that QLV-CMS is safe and potential hazards are controlled by a risk management plan for the software development process, including hazard analysis. verification and validation tests and evaluations by hospitals. In our opinion the level of concern for stand-alone software to analyze images is "minor" and that the use of QLV-CMS software does not change the intended use of the angiographic systems in practice.
