The device description and performance studies focus on the material composition and absorbency of a menstrual tampon, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
No
The device is used to absorb menstrual or other vaginal discharge, which is a supportive function rather than a therapeutic one.
No
The device is described as a menstrual tampon used to absorb menstrual fluid, not to diagnose any condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical product (tampons) made of materials like rayon and cotton, and includes a plastic applicator. It is not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to absorb menstrual or other vaginal discharge. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a sample.
- Device Description: The device is a tampon, designed for physical absorption within the body.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing a sample, detecting a substance, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health condition.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility and absorbency, which are relevant to the physical function of the device, not its diagnostic capabilities.
IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens such as blood, urine, or tissue to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. This device does not perform such a function.
