No
The summary describes a physical medical device (a catheter) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
The device is a catheter used for infusion of TPN or intravenous medications, which is a delivery mechanism, not a therapeutic agent itself.

No
A PIC catheter is used for administering fluids or medications, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "peripherally inserted central (PIC) catheter," which is a physical medical device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "mid- to long-term infusion of TPN or intravenous medications" through a peripherally inserted central catheter. This is a therapeutic and delivery function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "peripherally inserted central (PIC) catheter for central venous catheterization." This describes a medical device used for accessing the central venous system for treatment, not for testing samples outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The provided information does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

Therefore, the Premicath is a medical device used for patient treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 880.5970 Percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter.

(a)
Identification. A percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings, such as luer hubs, and accessories that facilitate the placement of the device. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for long-term use of 30 days or more, and it is intended for administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, composite materials, or any combination of these materials and may be of single or multiple lumen design.(b)
