No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and electrical components and their functional performance, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms or data processing for decision-making or analysis.

No
The device is used to prepare the cornea for subsequent surgical procedures by separating the epithelium, rather than directly treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is used for the separation of the epithelium from the cornea in preparation for subsequent surgical procedures. This describes a surgical tool, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a console, separator drive assembly, suction ring assembly, forceps, and an epithelial separator, and is described as an AC-powered device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to separate the epithelium from the cornea in preparation for subsequent surgical procedures. This is a surgical device used directly on the patient's body, not a device used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical device with a high-speed oscillating separator, suction rings, and a drive mechanism. This is consistent with a surgical instrument, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.

Therefore, the Norwood Abbey Centurion SES Epikeratome is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
