Intended Use
The Smith & Nephew InteliJET™ Fluid Management System (FMS) is indicated for use during arthroscopic joint surgery to regulate flow of irrigation fluids through the joint to maintain intra-articular pressure for uniform distention and clear visualization of the surgical site.
Device Description
The Smith & Nephew InteliJETTM Fluid Management System Hermes-Ready™ is a microprocessor-based system designed for controlled delivery of irrigation fluid during intra-articular surgery. This controlled delivery is accomplished via an electronic pressure control loop between the control unit and the tube casssette. The addition of the Hermes Ready™ feature will enable voice and pendant control of the pressure, mode, suction, and on/off functions when used in conjunction with a Hermes™ Digital O.R. Center.

No
The description focuses on a microprocessor-based system with an electronic pressure control loop and voice/pendant control, without mentioning AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used to maintain intra-articular pressure during arthroscopic joint surgery, which directly contributes to the medical procedure and patient care.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a fluid management system used to regulate irrigation fluid flow and maintain intra-articular pressure during surgery for visualization. It does not perform any diagnostic functions or analyze patient conditions to determine the nature of a disease.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "microprocessor-based system" with a "control unit" and "tube cassette," indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just 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 the device is for regulating irrigation fluid flow during arthroscopic joint surgery to maintain pressure and visualization. This is a direct intervention and support for a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a system for controlled delivery of fluid during surgery, focusing on pressure control and integration with surgical control systems. This aligns with a surgical support device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.

IVD devices are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is entirely focused on facilitating a surgical procedure.
