No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and functionality of a urinary catheter, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
Yes
The device is intended for intermittent catheterization of the urethra, which is a medical procedure to drain the bladder. This falls under the definition of a therapeutic intervention.
No
Explanation: The device description states its purpose is for "drainage of the bladder" and it functions as an "intermittent pathway" for this purpose. It does not mention any diagnostic capabilities like detecting or monitoring conditions.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical catheter and integrated water packet, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "intermittent catheterization of the urethra," which is a procedure performed directly on the patient's body to drain the bladder.
- Device Description: The device is a physical catheter designed to be inserted into the urethra. It facilitates drainage of urine from the bladder.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any analysis of a specimen.
Therefore, the LoFric® Primo™ Single Use Urinary Catheter is a medical device used for a therapeutic/procedural purpose, not an in vitro diagnostic purpose.

Device Description
The LoFric Primo Single Use Urinary Catheter is designed as an intermittent pathway for drainage of the bladder. The device consists of a catheter, coated with a hydrophilic low-friction coating.
The surface is hydrophilic and when the catheter is activated with the water integrated in the package, it becomes slippery and ready to use. The catheter is provided in a variety of lengths and sizes.
The catheter and the activation water is separated, sealed in one bag. By holding the product upright and exerting a light pressure on the folded water pocket, the water will run down and wet the catheter. The bag is opened and the catheter is inserted into the patient's urethra.

Intended Use 5.
The LoFric Primo Single Use Urinary Catheter is intended for intermittent catheterization of the urethra.
Comparison of Technological Characteristics ರಿ
The modified The LoFric Primo Single Use Urinary Catheter is substantially equivalent in intended use and design to the currently marketed The LoFric Single Use Urinary Catheter (K896750).
The difference between the LoFric Primo Single Use Urinary Catheter and the predicate is the packaging concept, which includes the addition of water. The method of sterilization is changed. This difference does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. Laboratory data demonstrates this.
