The device description focuses on passive weighing and user-set alarm points, with no mention of AI/ML terms or capabilities. The performance studies summary also does not indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
The device is described as a monitor intended to alert personnel of low irrigant fluid levels or when an infusion bag is near-empty. It does not actively treat or diagnose a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device monitors irrigant fluid levels and alerts personnel when levels are low. It does not diagnose any medical condition or disease. Its primary function is to manage fluid levels during procedures.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "passive weighing device" that "mounts on common poles and rods" and "operates from common alkaline batteries," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just 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 device is for monitoring fluid levels during infusions (gravity-flow or arthroscopic procedures) and alerting personnel. It is explicitly stated that it is not intended for use as an intravenous infusion monitor in the case of the Stryker L3 Hydrolert.
- Device Description: The device description details a passive weighing device that monitors the weight of an infusion bag to determine fluid levels. This is a physical measurement, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
MT Alert Infusion Monitor is intended for use in any healthcare setting where gravityflow infusions are utilized.
The Stryker L3 Hydrolert is intended to monitor irrigant levels primarily during arthroscopic procedures and to alert operating room personnel of a low irrigant fluid level condition. It will offer both increased efficiency in arthroscopic procedures and universal compatibility with both arthroscopic pump and gravity fluid management systems. It is intended for use with saline solution or any other standard irrigant. It is not intended for use as an intravenous infusion monitor. The alarm is designed to be reusable.

Device Description
The MT Alert Infusion Monitor is a passive weighing device that alarms when the infusion bag is near-empty. The alarm point can be set by the user. In addition, MT Alert may also assist in monitoring fluid bolus administration. MT Alert will alarm when a prescribed bolus of fluid has been taken from the infusion bag. MT Alert provides various audio and visual alarms. MT Alert operates from common alkaline batteries and mounts on common poles and rods.
