More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a topical silicone gel for scar management, with no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities that would involve AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section also explicitly states "Not Found".

Yes
The device is intended for the management of scars by softening, smoothing, and flattening them, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
Explanation: The device is a silicone gel intended for the management of scars by softening, smoothing, and flattening them. Its function is therapeutic/management, not diagnostic (identifying or characterizing a medical condition).

No

The device description clearly states it is a "topical gel made from medical grade silicone" and comes in a "15g pump applicator," indicating it is a physical product, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the product is for the "management of old and new hypertropic and keloid scarring on scars resulting from burns, general surgical procedures and trauma wounds." This is a topical application for treating a physical condition on the skin.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "self drying, topical gel made from medical grade silicone." It's applied directly to the scar.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for any disease or condition by examining specimens from the human body. IVDs are used to perform tests on samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc.

This device falls under the category of a medical device used for treatment and management of scars, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.
