No
The device is purified water for laboratory procedures and the summary contains no mention of AI or ML.
No
This device is highly purified water intended for use in laboratory procedures for assisted reproductive technologies, not for direct therapeutic treatment of a patient. Its purpose is to facilitate the ART procedures, not to treat a disease or condition itself.
No
This device is a high-purity water intended for use in Assisted Reproductive Technologies (A.R.T.) laboratory procedures, not for diagnosing a condition. Its performance studies focus on supporting embryonic growth and ensuring non-toxicity, rather than diagnostic accuracy.
No
The device description clearly states it is "highly purified water of USP WFI grade," indicating a physical substance, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is likely an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic). Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "for use in A.R.T. laboratory procedures". Assisted Reproductive Technologies (A.R.T.) involve handling human gametes and embryos in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The device is "highly purified water of USP WFI grade" intended for use in these in vitro procedures.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies involve testing the water's ability to support embryonic growth using a mouse embryo assay. This directly relates to its function in an in vitro biological process.
- Predicate Device: The reference to the "Notice of Final Rule, 63 FR 48428, Docket number 97N-0335" is significant. This docket number corresponds to the FDA's classification of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) media and supplements as Class II devices, which are regulated as IVDs.
While the text doesn't explicitly use the term "In Vitro Diagnostic," the context of its intended use in ART laboratory procedures, its function in supporting in vitro biological processes (embryonic growth), and its classification under an FDA rule related to ART media strongly indicate that it falls under the definition of an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Water for Assisted Reproductive Technologies (A.R.T.) Use is assayed by mouse embryo assay prior to its release to market. This assay assures that the product will support embryonic growth and that no toxic components are present. The equivalent of Water for Assisted Reproductive Technologies (A.R.T.) Use has been used in a variety of clinical settings for the same intended use for a number of years and has become the standard medium used for the fertilization and growth of human gametes and embryos.

§ 884.6170 Assisted reproduction water and water purification systems.
(a)
Identification. Assisted reproduction water purification systems are devices specifically intended to generate high quality, sterile, pyrogen-free water for reconstitution of media used for aspiration, incubation, transfer or storage of gametes or embryos for in vitro fertilization (IVF) or other assisted reproduction procedures. These devices may also be intended as the final rinse for labware or other assisted reproduction devices that will contact the gametes or embryos. These devices also include bottled water ready for reconstitution available from a vendor that is specifically intended for reconstitution of media used for aspiration, incubation, transfer, or storage of gametes or embryos for IVF or other assisted reproduction procedures.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, water quality testing, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing).

Dear Dr. Lee:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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). 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 (Premarket Approval), 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 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmadsmamain.html".
