The device description and intended use clearly describe a physical product (tampons) with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly "Not Found".
No
This device, a tampon, is used to absorb menstrual fluid, which is a supportive function rather than actively treating or preventing a disease or condition.
No
The device, a tampon, is used to absorb menstrual fluid; it does not diagnose any conditions or diseases.
No
The device is a physical product (tampons) and the description focuses on material composition and physical testing, not software functionality.
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 by being inserted into the vagina. This is a physical function within the body, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.
- Device Description: The description details the materials and function of a tampon, which is a physical absorbent device.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing a sample (like blood, urine, or tissue) to diagnose a condition, monitor a disease, or screen for health issues.
- Testing: The testing described focuses on biocompatibility and absorbency, which are relevant to the safety and function of a physical device, not a diagnostic test.
IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit that description.
