No
The device is a waste management system designed to collect surgical fluid waste and smoke, which are functions related to cleanliness and safety in a surgical environment, not direct treatment or diagnosis of a medical condition.

No
The device is a fluid and smoke collection system, designed to manage waste during surgical procedures. It does not provide information for diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The description clearly states the device is a "Waste management system" intended to "collect surgical fluid waste as well as collect smoke generated by electrosurgical or laser devices." This functionality inherently requires physical hardware components for collection and management, not just software.

Based on the provided information, the Neptune Waste Management System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to collect surgical fluid waste and smoke generated during surgical procedures. This is a physical process of waste management within a clinical setting.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This is the core function of an IVD.
  • Device Description (Not Found): While the description is missing, the intended use clearly points away from diagnostic testing.
  • No Mention of Biological Samples: The device collects surgical fluid waste and smoke, which are byproducts of a procedure, not samples intended for diagnostic analysis.

Therefore, the Neptune Waste Management System falls under the category of a surgical waste management device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
