Intended Use
The MASCT device is intended for use in the collection of nipple aspirate fluid for laboratory cytological testing.
Device Description
The Nastech MASCT device is similar to the non-powered breast pumps Manufactured by Windy Hill Technology used to elicit and collect nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) from the excretory ducts (tubuli lactiferi or galactophori). The device is comprised of a rigid polycarbonate cup in which the sample collection container is inserted. Negative pressure (vacuum) is produced by non-powered (hand) actuations of a lever like handle. The expressed NAF sample is collected on a membrane filter and washed into the sample container using an appropriate fixative solution.
More Information

No
The device description explicitly states it is a non-powered, hand-actuated device for fluid collection and does not mention any computational or analytical capabilities.

No
The device is described as intended for the "collection of nipple aspirate fluid for laboratory cytological testing," which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one.

No
The device is described as a collection device for nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) for "laboratory cytological testing." It does not perform the diagnostic test itself; it only collects the sample. The diagnosis would be made by the laboratory testing, not by the device.

No

The device description clearly states it is comprised of a rigid polycarbonate cup and a lever-like handle, indicating it is a physical, hardware-based device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the collection of nipple aspirate fluid. The fluid itself is then sent for laboratory cytological testing. The MASCT device is a tool for sample collection, not for performing the diagnostic test itself.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanism for creating vacuum and collecting the fluid. It doesn't describe any components or processes that would analyze the fluid or provide a diagnostic result.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device performing any analysis, measurement, or interpretation of the collected fluid to diagnose a condition. The diagnostic step happens after the sample is collected, in a separate laboratory setting.

In essence, the MASCT device is a sample collection device that provides the material for an IVD test, but it is not the IVD test itself.

§ 876.1075 Gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument.

(a)
Identification. A gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument is a device used to remove, by cutting or aspiration, a specimen of tissue for microscopic examination. This generic type of device includes the biopsy punch, gastrointestinal mechanical biopsy instrument, suction biopsy instrument, gastro-urology biopsy needle and needle set, and nonelectric biopsy forceps. This section does not apply to biopsy instruments that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for the biopsy forceps cover and the non-electric biopsy forceps. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Substantially Equivalent Device

Substantial equivalence was claimed to Windy Hill Technology DucPrep™ Breast Aspirator.

Device Description

The Nastech MASCT device is similar to the non-powered breast pumps Manufactured by Windy Hill Technology used to elicit and collect nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) from the excretory ducts (tubuli lactiferi or galactophori). The device is comprised of a rigid polycarbonate cup in which the sample collection container is inserted. Negative pressure (vacuum) is produced by non-powered (hand) actuations of a lever like handle. The expressed NAF sample is collected on a membrane filter and washed into the sample container using an appropriate fixative solution.

Intended Use

The MASCT device is intended for use in the collection of nipple aspirate fluid for laboratory cytological testing.

Technological Characteristics

The MASCT is a device that is substantially equivalent to the non-powered breast pumps Manufactured by Windy Hill Technology used to elicit and collect nipple aspirate fluid from the excretory ducts (tubuli lactiferi or galactophori). The Nastech device shares similar design, material and operating characteristics as the Windy Hill Device and devices to which the Windy Hill device claims substantial equivalence. The subject device and predicate device are comprised of polymer cups that are placed over the breast nipple and are used in conjunction with a non-powered mechanism for applying a gentle vacuum enabling expression of nipple aspirate fluid.
