No
The device description and intended use focus on the physical components and function of a vascular access port and catheter, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".
No.
The device is a vascular access port used to deliver or withdraw substances, but it is not the therapeutic agent itself. It facilitates therapy rather than being the therapy.
No
This device is designed for repeated access to the vascular system for the delivery of medications, fluids, nutritional solutions, and blood products, or for the withdrawal of blood. It is an access device for therapy, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly details a physical, subcutaneously implanted device with hardware components like a titanium chamber, silicone membrane, and catheter. It is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used for "repeated access to the vascular system is the therapy of choice for delivery of medications, fluids, nutritional solutions and blood products or withdrawal of blood." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for therapeutic and diagnostic sample collection purposes.
- Device Description: The description details a subcutaneously implanted port and catheter system designed for accessing the vascular system. This is consistent with an in vivo device.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical sites mentioned (vascular system, vena cava, soft tissue) are all within the human body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs typically involve reagents, analyzers, or other components used to test biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
Therefore, the C-Port family of products, as described, is a vascular access device used in vivo, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description
The CliniSurg family of Vascular Access devices is a group of subcutaneously implantable ports with a catheter either pre-attached or attachable for application by physicians in indicated therapies.
The device has a port that is a titanium chamber with a silicone membrane designed for repeated needle insertion. The port comes in various sizes to enable use with larger adults or smaller pediatric patients or the more emaciated adult patient. A higher or lower profile device is chosen by patient evaluation. The port is connected to a catheter that is long enough to insert into the vena cava for positioning to enable fluid infusion into larger vessels. The catheter is fixed to the port with a hub either during a procedure to implant the device or it comes pre-assembled (physician choice for use). The catheter has a series of radiopaque marks to enable depth determination when the catheter is inserted into the vena cava. A kit is provided to aid in catheter placement, insertion, and port implantation. Items such as syringes, vein introducers, trocars, guide wires, sheaths, fixation hubs, Huber needles, and infusion sets may be part of a total kit.

16. Contraindications or cautions for use:
A complete listing of the possible complications in the implantation and use of the C-Port family of ports is listed in the USER'S MANUAL which is supplied with the product. Possible complications in the use of the C-Port include, but are not limited to, infection, erosion, extrusion of the device, hematomas, clot formation, thrombosis, catheter fragmentation, and embolization, and occlusion. Improper placement of the catheter in the body has been shown to cause the catheter to be severed from a "pinching" effect by the clavicle and the first rib. In the placement of the catheter into the vein and on into the superior vena cava, caution should be exercised to be sure that the catheter does not pass between the clavicle and the first rib.
17. Methods (ways) of application:
The method of application is to prepare and insert the catheter into the vein (by "cut down" method or "percutaneous" method) and on into the vena cava. Then the proximal end of the catheter is tunneled subcutaneously to an area of cut down where the port is to be placed beneath the skin and secured to the fascial lavers of tissue. The catheter is ioined to the port (in attachable models) and the port is secured to the tissue. All wounds are then closed normally.
Intravenous fluids and / or nutritional fluids may then be administered by needle puncture of the septum in the port or periodic blood samples may be acquired if appropriate flushing techniques are followed (instructions for this are found in the USER'S MANUAL).
18. Special precautions for disposal of the device or emptied packages (container):
The sharps used in the procedure should be disposed of according to institution policy. Any remaining parts or empty packages do not require special handling when disposing.

- Before implanting inspect the port. Do not use if holes, cracks, or surface 1) contaminants are visible.
- Flush all air from the port prior to placement using the 20ga. Huber point 2) needle and syringe with heparinized saline.
- The selected site for the reservoir body should be over a bony structure 3) and in a location both convenient and comfortable for the patient.
- Place the catheter into the vein using the "cut-down" technique or by 4) using a percutaneous introducer.
- Place the tip of the catheter in an area of high blood flow when placing it 5) in the venous system. Fluoroscopy is recommended to verfiv proper placement of the catheter tip in the superior vena cava.
- ର) Take care not to serrate the catheter tip or occlude it during the catheter placement process. Leave sufficient slack upon placement so patient movement does not stress the catheter.
- Position the pocket for the reservoir so that the suture line is not directly 7) over the port. Do not place the port too deep or too shallow. A depth of approximately 5mm under the skin surface is recommended as the optimal placement depth.
- Cut the catheter to the proper length and moisten all components with 8) saline.
- Slide the compression boot over the catheter. 9)
-
- Slide the catheter over the barbed outlet tube of the reservoir.
- Slide the compression boot forward until the catheter and the outlet tube 11) are completely covered.
-
- Test by gently tugging on the catheter.
-
- Secure the port to the underlying fascia with at least three nonabsorbable sutures.
-
- After suturing has been satisfactorily completed. flush the incision with an appropriate antibiotic to ensure a sterile pocket.
-
- Before closure, check patency and flow through the C-Port by x-ray. fluoroscopy, or by an imaging technique of choice.
-
- After each use, always leave the C-Port filled with a heparinized saline solution in a concentration recommended by your institution.
