The summary describes a sequential media system for in-vitro maturation of oocytes, focusing on the chemical composition and performance in clinical studies. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational analysis of data.
No.
The device is a medium used for culturing oocytes, not a device that directly treats or diagnoses a disease.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a "sequential media system" used for the pre-incubation and maturation of immature oocytes in vitro for infertile women. It is a biological medium used in a treatment process (in vitro fertilization), not a device that diagnoses a condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "sequential media system including LAG Medium and IVM®Medium," which are biological media, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the media are for "pre-incubation of immature oocytes" and "maturing immature oocytes" of infertile women undergoing in vitro fertilization. This process is performed in vitro (outside the body) to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility.
- Device Description: The description details a "sequential media system" specifically developed to "support maturation in-vitro of immature oocytes." This further reinforces its use in an in vitro setting.
- Predicate Device: The predicate device listed is "MediCult's Universal IVF Medium" (K991279). IVF media are standard examples of IVD devices used in assisted reproductive technologies.
While the document doesn't explicitly use the term "In Vitro Diagnostic," the intended use and nature of the device align perfectly with the definition of an IVD, which are reagents, instruments, and systems intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, including a determination of the state of health, in order to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or its sequelae. In this case, the device is used in the context of diagnosing and treating infertility.

Device Description
MediCult IVM® System is a sequential media system including LAG Medium and IVM®Medium which has been developed specifically to support maturation in-vitro of immature oocytes.
The composition of the LAG medium is similar to the composition of Universal IVF Medium. Like the Universal IVF Medium the IVM®Medium contains physiological salts and nutritients but differs from this medium by also containing vitamins, amino acids and nucleotides and by being free from human serum albumin.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The MediCult IVM"System has been tested in two studies by Prof. Svend Lindenberg at Herlev University Hospital in Denmark and by Dr. Anna-Maria Suikkara at Väestöliitio, the Infertility Clinic of the Family Federation of Finland in Helsinki, Finland. The pregnancy rates obtained after retrieval of immature oocytes have been compared to the pregnancy rates obtained after retrieval of mature oocytes. The pregnancy rates per embryo transfer obtained using MediCult IVM"System of the immature oocytes prior to fertilisation were slightly lower than the results obtained using mature oocytes and the Universal IVF Medium. However, the IVM®System is advantageous for the woman as she compared to classic IVF/ICSI avoids both the hormone stimulation and thereby the side effects that are related to the hormones and the many visits to the fertility clinic.

§ 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.

510(k) Summary Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Information Supporting a Substantially Equivalent Determination
Indications for use
MediCult IVM®System including Vial 1, LAG Medium and Vial 2 , IVM®Medium.
The LAG Medium is for incubation of immature oocytes and the IVM®Medium is a basal medium for maturing immature oocytes of infertile women undergoing in vitro fertilization who for medical reasons can not undergo conventional ovarian stimulation using drugs. .
Stability, cytotoxicity- and biocompatibility testing
The IVM®System has been stability tested and a shelf life of 8 weeks from shipment date is recommended. As the MediCult IVM®System is not in contact with the patient, biocompatibility studies have not been performed.
Product testing controls
- . Sterility
- pH .
- . Osmolality
- Endotoxin ≤ 0.1 EU/ml (USP, Ph.Eur.) .
- Mouse Embryo Assay, (one cell assay, Blastocyst rate > 80 %) .
For each batch a Certificate of Analysis with the results of the above tests is available.
Clinical Documentation
MediCult IVM® System is a sequential media system including LAG Medium and IVM®Medium which has been developed specifically to support maturation in-vitro of immature oocytes.
The composition of the LAG medium is similar to the composition of Universal IVF Medium. Like the Universal IVF Medium the IVM®Medium contains physiological salts and nutritients but differs from this medium by also containing vitamins, amino acids and nucleotides and by being free from human serum albumin.
MediCult IVM System is indicated for pre-incubation and maturing of immature oocytes and is substantially equivalent to MediCult's Universal IVF Medium (K 991279) indicated for preparation of mature oocytes.
The MediCult IVM"System has been tested in two studies by Prof. Svend Lindenberg at Herlev University Hospital in Denmark and by Dr. Anna-Maria Suikkara at Väestöliitio, the Infertility Clinic of the Family Federation of Finland in Helsinki, Finland. The pregnancy rates obtained after retrieval of immature oocytes have been compared to the pregnancy rates obtained after retrieval of mature oocytes. The pregnancy rates per embryo transfer obtained using MediCult IVM"System of the immature oocytes prior to fertilisation were slightly lower than the results obtained using mature
1
oocytes and the Universal IVF Medium. However, the IVM®System is advantageous for the woman as she compared to classic IVF/ICSI avoids both the hormone stimulation and thereby the side effects that are related to the hormones and the many visits to the fertility clinic.
It can therefore be concluded that the MediCult IVM®System and the Universal IVF Medium (K991279) both are effective for preparing immature and mature oocytes, respectively, for insemination and that the MediCult IVM® System is substantially equivalent to the Universal IVF Medium (K991279).
During our studies there have been no registered complaints and no evidence that the product has been the cause of any serious adverse events in connection with its intended use.
Thus based on the clinical data presented and our experience with the MediCult IVM®System product, we feel that the safety and effectiveness of the product for its intended use is shown in the present submission and the products are substantially equivalent to the predicated device MediCult's Universal IVF Medium (K991279).
