No
The summary describes a chemical solution (Hyaluronidase in HTF Medium) used for a specific biological process (digesting hyaluronic acid). There is no mention of any computational or algorithmic components, let alone AI/ML.

No.
The device is used to prepare oocytes for ICSI procedures by digesting hyaluronic acid, which is an in vitro handling step and not a direct therapeutic intervention on a patient.

No
Explanation: The device is described as being used to digest hyaluronic acid for easier handling of oocytes prior to ICSI, which is a preparatory step for a therapeutic procedure (fertility treatment), not a diagnostic process to identify a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states "Hyaluronidase in HTF Medium; Hyaluronidase in EBSS Medium," indicating a biological or chemical substance, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is likely an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the product is used "prior to intracytoplasmic sperm injections (ICSI) procedures to digest the hyaluronic acid holding the cumulus cells together to permit easy handling of the oocytes." This describes a process performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples (oocytes and surrounding cells) to prepare them for a medical procedure.
  • Device Description: The device is a "Hyaluronidase in HTF Medium" or "Hyaluronidase in EBSS Medium." These are laboratory reagents used to manipulate biological samples.

IVDs are defined as reagents, instruments, and systems intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, including a determination of the state of health, in order to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or its sequelae. While this specific product isn't directly diagnosing a disease, it is a critical component used in vitro as part of a medical procedure (ICSI) that addresses infertility, which can be considered a "condition" or "state of health."

The lack of information about image processing, AI, anatomical site, patient age, user, training/test sets, performance studies, and metrics is typical for a reagent-based IVD that doesn't involve complex data analysis or imaging.

Therefore, the primary function and application of this product strongly align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 884.6180 Reproductive media and supplements.

(a)
Identification. Reproductive media and supplement are products that are used for assisted reproduction procedures. Media include liquid and powder versions of various substances that come in direct physical contact with human gametes or embryos (including water, acid solutions used to treat gametes or embryos, rinsing solutions, sperm separation media, supplements, or oil used to cover the media) for the purposes of preparation, maintenance, transfer or storage. Supplements are specific reagents added to media to enhance specific properties of the media (e.g., proteins, sera, antibiotics, etc.).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing). The device, when it is phosphate-buffered saline used for washing, and short-term handling and manipulation of gametes and embryos; culture oil used as an overlay for culture media containing gametes and embryos; and water for assisted reproduction applications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.
