Authorized purpose: Worklist triage and notification for suspected incidental pulmonary embolism on contrast-enhanced CT acquired for another indication; not a diagnostic device
Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Overview status: Source-reviewed overview
What does this software do?Authorized purpose: Worklist triage and notification for suspected incidental pulmonary embolism on contrast-enhanced CT acquired for another indication; not a diagnostic device
Which images or clinical context are in scope?Modality: CT/CTA Anatomy or clinical context: Lung and pulmonary arterial segments containing incidental pulmonary embolism; subsegmental arteries are out of scope Input: DICOM contrast-enhanced CT scans, not dedicated CTPA, including at least part of the lung; intended for adults and transitional adolescents aged 18-21 treated as adults
Who uses it?Intended users: Hospital networks and trained radiologists
What does the software produce?Output: Passive worklist icon and active notification for suspected incidental PE, with a compressed grayscale unannotated preview marked not for diagnostic use; results files are transferred for PACS/workstation prioritization and the original image is not altered
What is its most important limitation?Key limitation: Not designed to detect PE in subsegmental arteries; preview images are informational and not diagnostic; results are not for standalone diagnosis and notified clinicians must review the full study using standard of care; the input is CT for another indication rather than a dedicated CTPA protocol
Clinical takeaway
Clinical role: Worklist triage and notification for suspected incidental pulmonary embolism on contrast-enhanced CT acquired for another indication; not a diagnostic device
Evidence takeaway
Evidence from the reviewed source record: Retrospective multicenter, multinational, blinded standalone study of 381 cases: 181 positive and 200 negative, with ground truth by consensus of three US-board-certified expert radiologists. Global sensitivity was 87.8% (95% CI 82.2%-92.2%) and specificity 92.0% (87.3%-95.4%) against an 80% performance goal. Sensitivity by overlapping lesion-location groups was main 96.3%, interlobar 94.5%, lobar 92.9%, and segmental 88.3%. Mean time-to-notification was 1.5 minutes for all cases and 1.5 minutes for 159 true-positive cases

Exact purpose
Worklist triage and notification for suspected incidental pulmonary embolism on contrast-enhanced CT acquired for another indication; not a diagnostic device
Standalone triage application operating in parallel with standard of care; all studies appear in the worklist, flagged series receive notification and passive marking, and the original images remain the basis for review
DICOM contrast-enhanced CT scans, not dedicated CTPA, including at least part of the lung; intended for adults and transitional adolescents aged 18-21 treated as adults
Passive worklist icon and active notification for suspected incidental PE, with a compressed grayscale unannotated preview marked not for diagnostic use; results files are transferred for PACS/workstation prioritization and the original image is not altered
Not designed to detect PE in subsegmental arteries; preview images are informational and not diagnostic; results are not for standalone diagnosis and notified clinicians must review the full study using standard of care; the input is CT for another indication rather than a dedicated CTPA protocol
The FDA listing establishes the regulatory identity. It does not by itself establish local workflow fit, pricing, security, or performance in your environment.
Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.
Integration
CINA-iPE can run with the CINA Platform cleared under K200855 or another medical image communications device. DICOM services communicate with CT modalities, routers, PACS, and the Worklist Application; exact local interface versions are not established
Deployment category preserved from the prior exact-submission review; hosting region, data flow, and current commercial configuration still require vendor confirmation.
Metrics are shown only when they are tied to a source, endpoint, population, and tested product version. Candidate literature without exact product and version linkage is not shown as product evidence.

Postmarket record
Recall and adverse-event records are shown only after product matching. Adverse-event reports do not establish incidence or causality.
Postmarket safety review
The exact-identifier FDA recall query returned no native recall record for K233968. This limited result does not establish absence of recalls or other safety information and does not cover later versions, family records, MAUDE reports, corrections, or field notices.
Verify security and privacy controls: Exact-release security controls, data retention, hosting boundaries, and scoped assurance documentation require vendor confirmation.
Verify training: Current training prerequisites, competency checks, and support commitments for the exact configuration require vendor confirmation.
Verify pricing and total cost: No public price or quote for the exact K233968 configuration was established in this review.
Verify reimbursement and coding relevance: No exact-product payer policy, coding instruction, or payment determination was established; eligibility must be evaluated by payer, site of service, and use case.
Verify local validation and lifecycle monitoring: Current drift, quality, uptime, alert, escalation, and incident-response commitments for the exact configuration require vendor confirmation.
