Intended Use
The Disposable Semi-Automated Temno® Biopsy Device is a system used for tissue sampling from several different organs, including, but not limited to, the Kidney, Liver, Breast and Prostate. This biopsy device is used to remove, by cutting, a specimen of tissue for microscopic evaluation.
Device Description
Needles are permanently attached to an automated device comprised of a spring that activates a stylet and cannula in a specified cutting sequence. The needle cuts and traps the tissue samples, which are substantially equivalent to samples obtained with similar devices currently in the market.

No
The description focuses on the mechanical action of the device (spring-activated stylet and cannula) and does not mention any computational or data-driven processes characteristic of AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No.
The device is used for tissue sampling for diagnostic purposes, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is used to collect tissue samples for microscopic evaluation, which is a step in the diagnostic process, but the device itself does not perform the diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "automated device comprised of a spring that activates a stylet and cannula," which are physical hardware components used for tissue cutting and trapping.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease. This is typically done in vitro (outside the body) using tests on blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.
  • This device is used to obtain the tissue sample. It's a tool for collecting the specimen, not for analyzing it. The analysis (microscopic evaluation) happens after the tissue is collected, and that analysis would likely involve IVD procedures or devices, but the biopsy device itself is not an IVD.

The description clearly states its purpose is for "tissue sampling" and to "remove, by cutting, a specimen of tissue for microscopic evaluation." This is a procedure to acquire the sample, not to perform a diagnostic test on it.

§ 876.1075 Gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument.

(a)
Identification. A gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument is a device used to remove, by cutting or aspiration, a specimen of tissue for microscopic examination. This generic type of device includes the biopsy punch, gastrointestinal mechanical biopsy instrument, suction biopsy instrument, gastro-urology biopsy needle and needle set, and nonelectric biopsy forceps. This section does not apply to biopsy instruments that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for the biopsy forceps cover and the non-electric biopsy forceps. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Dear Ms. Nichols:

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.
