No
The document describes a sterilization container system and related accessories. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
The device is a container system used for sterilizing medical instruments, not for treating a disease or condition in a patient.

No

This device is a sterilization container system designed to hold medical devices for steam sterilization. Its purpose is to facilitate the sterilization process, not to diagnose medical conditions or analyze biological samples.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like containers, valve plates, baskets, trays, and other hardware designed to contain medical devices for sterilization. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for the sterilization of medical devices (instruments and instrument sets) using steam sterilization. This is a process performed on medical devices themselves, not on biological samples from a patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details containers, trays, baskets, and other accessories designed to hold and organize medical instruments during sterilization. These are physical containment and organization tools, not reagents, instruments, or software used for in vitro testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring analytes
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
    • Reagents, calibrators, or controls

The device is clearly intended for the processing and preparation of medical devices for use, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

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 such additional controls.
