More Information

No
The description details a manually operated mechanical device with no mention of software, data processing, or AI/ML terms.

No.

The device is an endoscope holder, which is a tool used by surgeons to hold endoscopes during procedures, rather than directly providing therapy itself. Its function is to assist in procedures, some of which may be therapeutic, but the device itself is not a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as an endoscope holder used during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, but it does not perform the diagnostic function itself; it merely holds the endoscope that might be used for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is composed of surgical grade stainless steel and anodized aluminum, and describes physical components like a table clamp, rods, and an endoscope clamp. This indicates it is a physical hardware device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The Armand Endoscope Holder is a surgical device used to physically hold endoscopes during procedures. It does not perform any tests on biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "holding rigid and flexible endoscopes... during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures." This describes a physical support function, not a diagnostic test.

Therefore, the Armand Endoscope Holder falls under the category of a surgical instrument or accessory, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
