Intended Use
The KAPP Bari-Ring Endoscopic Marker is intended to radiographically (limited to xray) mark the site of gastropexy performed during bariatric or other surgical procedures, especially in those procedures where the stomach is not accessible by other diagnostic means (contrast or endoscopy).
Device Description
The KAPP Bari-Ring Endoscopic Marker consists of a stainless steel ring deployed during surgery supplied non-sterile for single long term use to radiographically (limited to x-ray) mark the site of gastropexy performed during bariatric or other surgical procedures, especially in those procedures where the stomach is not accessible by other diagnostic means (contrast or endoscopy).
More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a passive marker and the summary does not mention any software or analytical capabilities, let alone AI/ML.

No
The device is described as an endoscopic marker used to mark a surgical site for radiographic purposes, not to treat a disease or condition.

No

The device is an endoscopic marker used to physically mark a surgical site for future radiographic identification, not to diagnose a condition itself. It aids in locating a site that might otherwise be inaccessible by diagnostic means but doesn't perform a diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a "stainless steel ring deployed during surgery," indicating a physical hardware component.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
  • KAPP Bari-Ring Function: The KAPP Bari-Ring is a physical marker implanted inside the body during surgery. Its purpose is to be visible on X-rays to indicate a specific surgical site. It does not analyze or test any biological specimens.

The description clearly states it's a physical ring deployed during surgery to radiographically mark a site. This is an in-vivo (within the body) device, not an in-vitro (outside the body) diagnostic.
