The summary describes a physical medical device (a punctal plug) made of absorbable suture material. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is used in the "treatment of dry eye syndrome and the dry eye components of various ocular surface diseases," indicating a therapeutic purpose.
No
This device is described as an "Extended Wear Plug" made from "absorbable suture material" and is used in the treatment of dry eye syndrome. Its function is to plug the punctum/canaliculus to retain moisture or medication, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is made from absorbable suture material and is available in different lengths and diameters, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The Sharpoint UltraPlug Extended Wear Plug is a physical device inserted into the punctum and canaliculus (parts of the tear drainage system in the eye). Its purpose is to block tear drainage and help treat dry eye.
- Lack of Diagnostic Testing: The description does not mention any form of testing on biological samples or the diagnosis of a condition based on such testing. The device is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic tool.
Therefore, the Sharpoint UltraPlug Extended Wear Plug falls under the category of a medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
