The device is a sterile ultrasound couplant and lubricant. The description focuses on its physical properties and intended use in facilitating ultrasound imaging and insertion of probes. There is no mention of any computational or analytical functions that would involve AI or ML.
No.
The device is described as an ultrasound couplant and lubricant for diagnostic ultrasound imaging, which facilitates imaging but does not directly treat a medical condition.
No
ScanLube is described as an ultrasound couplant and lubricant used in conjunction with medical diagnostic ultrasound imaging, not as a diagnostic device itself. Its function is to facilitate the ultrasound imaging process by coupling ultrasound waves and providing lubrication, not to diagnose conditions.
No
The device is described as a sterile ultrasound couplant, which is a physical substance, not 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 ScanLube is an "in vivo biocompatible and biodegradable sterile ultrasound couplant" used "in conjunction with hydrogel pads... during medical diagnostic ultrasound imaging to couple ultrasound waves between the patient and medical imaging electronics." It facilitates scanning and insertion of transducers.
- Function: Its primary function is to act as a couplant and lubricant for ultrasound procedures, facilitating the transmission of ultrasound waves and the movement of the transducer.
- No In Vitro Testing: The description does not mention any testing of samples (blood, tissue, etc.) outside of the body. IVDs are specifically designed for testing samples in vitro to provide information about a patient's health status.
ScanLube is a medical device used during an imaging procedure on a patient's body (in vivo), not for analyzing samples taken from the body (in vitro).

Intended Use / Indications for Use
ScanLube is an in vivo biocompatible and biodegradable sterile ultrasound couplant that will be used in coniunction with hydrogel pads, such as Sonotech's ScanTac Pad, during medical diagnostic ultrasound imaging to couple ultrasound waves between the patient and medical imaging electronics.
ScanLube converts an adhesive hydrogel surface into a lubricous surface by hydrogen bonding with the ScanTac Pad, which then facilitates scanning with an ultrasound transducer.
ScanLube is intended for use with the ScanTac Strip and ScanTac Pad in conjunction with transcutaneous ultrasound image guided biopsy and aspiration, and within a protective sheath (probe cover) for intraoperative and endocavity ultrasound imaging.
ScanLube, when swabbed or similarly applied to the exposed surface of a hydrogel strip, such as the ScanTac Strip, when attached to the face of a transducer, converts the exposed hydrogel adhesive surface to lubricous, thus enabling the easy insertion of the hydrogel covered transducer into a transducer cover or sheath, or for scanning the patient using direct contact of the lubricous hydrogel surface.
ScanLube is unit dose packaged, sterilized and intended for use as a couplant and lubricant in all diagnostic ultrasound procedures which currently use an ultrasound coupling gel or fluid alone or in combination with a latex, polyurethane or polyethylene transducer cover where sterility and in vivo biocompatibility are required.
ScanLube may be used to lubricate the exterior surface of endocavity transducer sheaths or covers prior to insertion into the vagina or rectum. In this application, ScanLube serves both as an ultrasound couplant and instrument lubricant.

Identification. A diagnostic ultrasonic transducer is a device made of a piezoelectric material that converts electrical signals into acoustic signals and acoustic signals into electrical signals and intended for use in diagnostic ultrasonic medical devices. Accessories of this generic type of device may include transmission media for acoustically coupling the transducer to the body surface, such as acoustic gel, paste, or a flexible fluid container.(b)

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