K 991279

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical composition and biological efficacy of embryo culture media, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No.
The device is a culture medium for embryos used in IVF, which supports embryo development rather than treating a disease or condition.

No

The device description indicates that ISM1+, ISM2+, and UTM+ are "sequential media for the culture and transfer of embryos." Their purpose is to support embryo development, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states that the devices are "sequential media for the culture and transfer of embryos," listing chemical components. This indicates a physical product, not software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the culture and transfer of embryos in the context of IVF and ICSI treatments. This process involves handling biological material (embryos) outside of the body for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes related to fertility.
  • Device Description: The device is a set of culture media (ISM1+, ISM2+, UTM+) with specific compositions designed to support the development of embryos. These media are used in vitro (outside the living organism) to facilitate a biological process (embryo development).
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies evaluate the effectiveness of the media in supporting embryo development and viability, which are key aspects of in vitro diagnostic procedures in reproductive medicine.
  • Predicate Devices: The predicate devices listed (G1.2 media, G2.2 media) are also culture media used in IVF, further supporting the classification of this device as an IVD.

While the device doesn't involve image processing, AI, or specific anatomical sites in the traditional sense of imaging diagnostics, its function as a medium for in vitro embryo culture and transfer firmly places it within the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies

Medi-Cult's new ISM1+, ISM2+( Innovative Sequential Media) and UTM + (Uterine Transfer Medium) is a modified version of older ISM1/ISM2/UTM media. The original ISM media have been tested in a multicenter trial in France. The study included patients, not more than 40 years of age, accepted for IVF and ICSI treatments to a total of 466 cycles. After fertilization in Universal IVF Medium the embryos were cultured in ISM1, ISM2 and either transferred on Day 2/3 or Day 5 using UTM.The data show that the ISM media support development of viable cleavage and blastocyst embryos following either IVF or ICSI and these can be transferred on Day 2/3 or at the blastocyst stage. All pregnancies in the study were singletons with the exception of one pair of twins. The twins were a result of two individual embryos implanted and therefore no monozygotic twins were seen in the entire study.

Furthermore, a clinical study has been performed where Medi-Cult's original ISM1/ISM2 have been compared to ISM1+/1SM2+. The conclusion was that the two versions were equally effective.

Two prospective studies where the ISM series and ISM+ series respectively have been compared to G1.2/G2.2 media systems have been performed.

Based on the results of these studies it is concluded that Medi-Cult's ISM+ series comprising ISM1+, ISM2+ and UTM+ media are substantial equivalent to Vitrolife's G1,2-G2.2 sequential culture system and is effective for development of embryos for Day 2-3 transfer or for developing blastocysts for Day 5 transfer in patients for IVF or ICSI.

§ 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.
