No
The summary describes chemical solutions for cryopreservation and thawing, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would indicate the use of such technologies.

No.
The device is used for the cryopreservation and thawing of blastocysts, which are involved in assisted reproduction technologies, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition in a patient.

No
Explanation: The device is a kit for cryopreservation and thawing of blastocysts, used in assisted reproduction technologies. Its purpose is to preserve biological material, not to diagnose a disease, condition, or state of health.

No

The device description explicitly states it is composed of aqueous solutions in glass vials with silicone rubber stoppers, indicating it is a physical product, not software.

Based on the provided information, the Sydney IVF™ Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit and Thawing Kit are likely IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "assisted reproduction technologies for cryopreservation of blastocysts" and "thawing of cryopreserved blastocysts." Blastocysts are human embryos, and these processes are performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological material.
  • Device Description: The devices are described as "aqueous solutions provided in glass vials." These are reagents or media used in laboratory procedures.
  • Context of Use: The intended user is in "assisted reproduction technologies," which are laboratory-based procedures involving the manipulation of human gametes and embryos in vitro.

While the document doesn't explicitly state "In Vitro Diagnostic," the nature of the device, its intended use on biological material outside the body, and the context of its use in a laboratory setting strongly align with the definition of an IVD. IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. In this case, the kits are used to preserve and thaw human embryos, which are specimens derived from the human body, for the purpose of assisted reproduction.

The reference to "63 FR 48428, September 10, 1998" is likely a reference to a regulatory document or guidance related to assisted reproductive technology devices, which often fall under the purview of IVD regulations.

§ 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.
