No
The description focuses on the mechanical and pneumatic aspects of a surgical drilling system and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No.
The device is used for cutting and drilling bones, which are surgical procedures, not therapeutic interventions aimed at treating a disease or condition through non-invasive means or by eliciting a biological response.

No

The device is described as a high-speed system for cutting and drilling bones, which are surgical procedures, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as a handpiece motor, air tubes, foot control, hand pieces, craniotoms, burs, drills, and cutters.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for cutting and drilling of cranial and spinal bones during surgical procedures. This is a direct surgical intervention on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a surgical tool system consisting of a handpiece, motor, foot control, and various surgical attachments (handpieces, craniotoms, burs, drills, cutters). These are all instruments used during surgery.
  • Anatomical Site: The device is used on cranial and spinal bones, which are parts of the patient's anatomy.
  • 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) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform tests on samples; it performs a surgical action on the patient.

Therefore, the Medicon VIPAIR high speed system is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
