The summary describes a chemical medium for embryo transfer and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or performance studies typically associated with AI/ML devices.
No
The device is described as a "medium for embryo transfer," which is a substance used in a medical procedure, not a device that directly treats a disease or condition for therapeutic purposes.
No
The device is described as a "Medium for embryo transfer," which is a therapeutic or supportive function rather than a diagnostic one. It facilitates the transfer of embryos but does not diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "Bicarbonate buffered medium containing Hyaluronan and Recombinant Human Albumin," which are physical substances, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "Medium for embryo transfer." This describes a substance used in a procedure involving living cells (embryos) outside the body, but it's not for diagnosing a condition or disease.
- Device Description: The description details the composition of a medium used to support and transport embryos. This aligns with a device used in assisted reproductive technology, not for diagnostic testing.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: The provided information does not mention any components, processes, or intended uses related to analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a disease or condition.
- Predicate Device: The predicate device listed, "G-2™ version 3, supplemented with G-MM™," is also a known embryo culture medium, further supporting the conclusion that this device is not an IVD.
IVDs are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device's purpose is to facilitate the transfer of embryos, which is a therapeutic procedure, not a diagnostic one.

§ 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.

| Predicate Device: | G-2™ version 3, supplemented with G-MM™ |
| Description of the Device: | Bicarbonate buffered medium containing
Hyaluronan and Recombinant Human Albumin |
| Intended Use: | Medium for In Vitro Fertilization Procedures |
| Indications for Use: | Medium for embryo transfer |
Technological Characteristics:
The EmbryoGlue™ device is a modification of G-2™ version 3, supplemented with G-MM™. The technological characteristics of EmbryoGlue are essentially similar to those of the predicate device. The EmbryoGlue contains Recombumin and is not intended to be supplemented with albumin prior to use. Other changes are the product packaging and the fact that EmbryoGlue contains a higher concentration of I-Iyaluronan. None of these differences raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
