No
The summary contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other indicators of AI/ML technology. The device is described as cell separation media, which is a chemical reagent, not a software or hardware device typically associated with AI/ML.

No
The device is described as "cell separation media," which is a consumable used in a technique, not a device that directly provides therapy to a patient.

No.
The intended use states it is for "cell separation" in "assisted reproduction techniques," which describes a therapeutic or preparatory process rather than a diagnostic one.

No

The 510(k) summary describes "cell separation media," which is a physical substance used in a medical procedure, not a software application.

Based on the provided information, it is highly likely that this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for use in assisted reproduction techniques." This strongly suggests the device is used to analyze or process biological samples (likely sperm or other reproductive cells) in vitro (outside the body) as part of a medical procedure.
  • Cell Separation Media: The device is described as "cell separation media." This type of product is typically used to isolate specific cell populations from a biological sample, which is a common step in in vitro diagnostic procedures or laboratory techniques.

While the description is brief and lacks details about the specific mechanism or how it's used, the combination of "assisted reproduction techniques" and "cell separation media" points towards a product used to process biological samples in a laboratory setting for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes related to reproduction.

To be definitively certain, more information would be needed, such as:

  • A more detailed Device Description: This would clarify exactly what the media does and how it interacts with the biological sample.
  • Regulatory Classification: Knowing the regulatory classification (e.g., FDA classification) would confirm its status as an IVD.

However, based on the available information, the intended use and the nature of the product strongly indicate it falls under the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 884.6180 Reproductive media and supplements.

(a)
Identification. Reproductive media and supplement are products that are used for assisted reproduction procedures. Media include liquid and powder versions of various substances that come in direct physical contact with human gametes or embryos (including water, acid solutions used to treat gametes or embryos, rinsing solutions, sperm separation media, supplements, or oil used to cover the media) for the purposes of preparation, maintenance, transfer or storage. Supplements are specific reagents added to media to enhance specific properties of the media (e.g., proteins, sera, antibiotics, etc.).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing). The device, when it is phosphate-buffered saline used for washing, and short-term handling and manipulation of gametes and embryos; culture oil used as an overlay for culture media containing gametes and embryos; and water for assisted reproduction applications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.

President

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:
