No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, image processing, or any other indicators of AI/ML technology. The device is described as a disposable RF needle for pain relief procedures, which is a standard medical device technology.

Yes
The device is indicated for use in radio frequency heat lesion procedures for relief of pain, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device is used for pain relief procedures (therapeutic), not for identifying or diagnosing a condition.

No

The intended use describes a "Disposable RF Needle," which is a hardware component used in a medical procedure. This indicates the device is not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for use in radio frequency heat lesion procedures for relief of pain." This describes a therapeutic procedure performed directly on a patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

Therefore, the NBD Disposable RF Needle is a therapeutic device used in a medical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Lusby:

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 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
