No
The provided text does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, deep learning, or neural networks. The description focuses on the electrical nature of the device and its intended use for tube placement with confirmation via X-ray or hospital protocol.

No
The device aids in the placement of feeding tubes, which is a procedural assistance, not a direct therapeutic action or treatment for a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is designed to aid in the placement of feeding tubes, not to diagnose a medical condition. It is a tool for a medical procedure, with the requirement of X-ray or hospital protocol for confirmation of correct tube placement, which implies that the device itself is not providing a diagnosis.

No

The intended use explicitly describes the device as an "electrical device," which implies hardware components are involved.

Based on the provided information, the CORTRAK™ System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is designed to aid in the placement of feeding tubes within the body (stomach or small bowel). This is an in vivo procedure, meaning it involves interacting directly with a living organism.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, outside of the body (in vitro). They are used to diagnose diseases or other conditions.

The CORTRAK™ System's function is to guide a physical device (a feeding tube) within the patient's body, not to analyze biological samples.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The CORTRAK™ System is an electrical device designed to aid qualified operators in the placement of naso-gastric and naso-intestinal feeding tubes of 8 FF or larger in the stomach or small bowel of patients requiring enteral feeding. Prior to the delivery of food, confirmation of correct tube placement by X-ray or acceptable hospital protocol is required.
