No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms, and the device description focuses on hardware components and electrocoagulation technology.
No
The device is indicated for use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures for electrocoagulation and hemostasis, and for non-invasive treatment of periorbital wrinkles and rhytids. These uses are generally considered aesthetic or surgical tools rather than therapeutic for diseases or conditions.
No
The device is indicated for "electrocoagulation and hemostasis" and "non-invasive treatment of periorbital wrinkles and rhytids," which are treatment procedures, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a system unit, handpiece assembly, accessories, cables, tubing, and an optional footswitch.
Based on the provided information, the Thermage ThermaCool System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "Dermatologic and General Surgical procedures for electrocoagulation and hemostasis" and "Non-invasive treatment of periorbital wrinkles and rhytids." This describes a therapeutic or surgical device used directly on the patient's body, not a device used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The components listed (System, Handpiece, Treatment Tip, Coolant, Coupling Fluid, Return Pad, etc.) are consistent with a device used for applying energy or treatment to the skin, not for analyzing biological samples.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Thermage ThermaCool System's function is entirely different.
