No
The summary describes a standard, disposable tracheostomy tube made of PVC, with no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies focus on material properties and dimensional conformity to standards.

No
The device is described as a tracheostomy tube for airway management, which is a supportive and management tool, not one that treats a disease or condition therapeutically.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a "single patient disposable tracheostomy tube for airway management". Its purpose is to facilitate breathing in tracheostomized patients, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It does not measure, analyze, or detect any medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical tracheostomy tube made from PVC, which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "airway management of tracheostomotized patients." This is a therapeutic and supportive function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical properties and materials of the tracheostomy tube, which are relevant to its function in maintaining an airway.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) or to provide information for diagnosing a disease or condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This tracheostomy tube is used in vivo (inside the body) for airway management.

(a)
Identification. A tracheostomy tube and tube cuff is a device intended to be placed into a surgical opening of the trachea to facilitate ventilation to the lungs. The cuff may be a separate or integral part of the tracheostomy tube and is, when inflated, intended to establish a seal between the tracheal wall and the tracheostomy tube. The cuff is used to prevent the patient's aspiration of substances, such as blood or vomit, or to provide a means for positive-pressure ventilation of the patient. This device is made of either stainless steel or plastic.(b)
