Intended Use
The MediCompass® Connect serves as an interface or a gateway between personal monitoring devices and a general-purpose personal health management database. The MediCompass Connect collects physiologic measurements and retrospectively monitors vital signs from defined personal monitoring devices and transmits the data to a central database server, using standard communication technologies. MediCompass Connect is designed for professional, personal and home use. MediCompass Connect is not intended to provide automated treatment decisions, nor is it to be used as a substitute for a professional healthcare judgment.
Device Story
Telehealth gateway; collects biometric data from personal health monitoring devices (glucose monitors, insulin pumps, BP monitors, spirometers, pulse oximeters, PT/INR meters, activity monitors, scales). Transfers data via MetrikLink connectivity hub (phone line/internet) or wireless mobile connection to secure online database. Used in professional, personal, and home settings. Healthcare providers access data via remote general-purpose health management database. Device performs no diagnosis or automated treatment decisions; serves as data interface only. Benefits include retrospective monitoring of vital signs to support clinical oversight.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification and validation testing confirmed performance, functionality, and reliability of data transmission when connected to various personal monitoring devices using specified communication methods. No clinical data presented.
Technological Characteristics
Telehealth gateway system; utilizes MetrikLink connectivity hub, standard phone lines, internet, and wireless mobile technology for data transmission. Software-based interface for data aggregation. No specific materials or energy sources defined beyond standard communication hardware.
Indications for Use
Indicated for professional, personal, and home use to collect and retrospectively transmit physiologic measurements and vital signs from personal monitoring devices (e.g., glucose monitors, insulin pumps, BP monitors, spirometers, pulse oximeters, PT/INR meters, activity monitors, scales) to a central database. Not for emergency use, real-time alarms, or automated treatment decisions.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A radiofrequency physiological signal transmitter and receiver is a device used to condition a physiological signal so that it can be transmitted via radiofrequency from one location to another, e.g., a central monitoring station. The received signal is reconditioned by the device into its original format so that it can be displayed.

{1}------------------------------------------------
After connectivity is activated by a health care professional, patients can connect their monitoring device to MediCompass Connect using MetrikLink, adapters or compatible cables provided for their specific medical device and model. The data captured from the personal monitoring medical devices is transferred securely to the MediCompass database or other secure online database, then to the health care provider's remote general purpose health management database.
MediCompass Connect does not provide diagnosis of any disease or medical condition, nor is it intended to provide automated treatment decisions, or to be used as a substitute for professional healthcare judgment. All patient medical diagnoses and treatment are to be performed under the supervision and oversight of an appropriate healthcare professional.
MediCompass Connect is not intended for emergency use or for transmission or indication of any real-time alarms or time critical data. This device is not intended as a substitute for direct medical supervision or emergency intervention.
### INDICATION FOR USE STATEMENT
The MediCompass® Connect serves as an interface or a gateway between personal monitoring devices and a general-purpose personal health management database. The MediCompass Connect collects physiologic measurements and retrospectively monitors vital signs from defined personal monitoring devices and transmits the data to a central database server, using standard communication technologies. MediCompass Connect is designed for professional, personal and home use.
MediCompass Connect is not intended to provide automated treatment decisions, nor is it to be used as a substitute for a professional healthcare judgment.
# SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE COMPARISON
This submission represents a modification to the existing MediCompass Connect software to support the connection of additional personal medical devices. It is substantially equivalent to the cleared MediCompass Connect (iMetrikus, Inc) in #K042768. The device is also substantially equivalent to Confidant 2.6, Health Buddy Appliance, and to the CareMatix Wellness System, all of which use connections between the personal health monitoring device and management database.
# PERFORMANCE TESTING
Verification and validation testing activities were conducted to establish the performance, functionality and reliability characteristics of MediCompass Connect when connected to personal monitoring medical devices using the associated communications methods. The results of all performance testing were acceptable and demonstrated performance as intended.
{2}------------------------------------------------
# CONCLUSION
MediCompass Connect is substantially equivalent in technology, features, and indications for use to devices cleared under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. The modified device has the same fundamental scientific technology and intended use as the predicate devices. The device introduces no new questions concerning the safety or efficacy and is, therefore, substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Acosta:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
