The summary describes a physical catheter device for delivering local anesthetics and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is intended to provide continuous and/or intermittent infusion of local anesthetics, which is a therapeutic intervention for regional anesthesia and pain management.
No
The device is described as a catheter for administering local anesthetics for pain management, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components (polyamide tubing, tips, sizes, lengths) and does not mention any software functionality as the primary or sole component.
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 for the "percutaneous administration, continuous and/or intermittent infusion of local anesthetics near a nerve". This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for therapeutic purposes (pain management and anesthesia).
- Device Description: The description details a catheter, which is a physical device inserted into the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
IVD devices are used to perform tests outside the body on biological samples. This device is used inside the body to deliver medication.

§ 880.5725 Infusion pump.
(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Dear: Ms. Wilson
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 vour device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.
