The summary describes a simple battery-powered cautery device with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven features.
No.
The device's purpose is to control bleeding during surgical procedures, not to treat or cure a disease or condition. It is a surgical tool.
No
The device description states its use is to "cause blood vessels to constrict and produce blood loss and keep the surgical field clear," which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "battery-powered medical device" used in surgical procedures, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a cautery used in ophthalmologic surgical procedures to directly interact with blood vessels within the body to control bleeding. It's a surgical tool used on the patient, not for testing samples from the patient.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical instrument or device used for treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic.
