No
The document describes a physical medical device (a dialyzer) and its function, materials, and intended use. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.
Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of acute and chronic renal failure, which is a therapeutic application.
No
The device description indicates it is used for hemodialysis, hemodiafiltration, and hemofiltration to treat renal failure, which involves removing waste products from the blood, rather than diagnosing a condition.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical hemodialyzer/filter with a membrane and ports for blood and dialysate, indicating it is a hardware device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Device Function: The Polyflux 6H is a dialyzer/filter. Its function is to filter blood directly from the patient's body to remove waste products and excess fluid. This is a direct treatment of the patient's blood within an extracorporeal circuit, not an examination of a specimen taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "chronic and acute applications in hemodialysis, hemodiafiltration and hemofiltration." These are therapeutic procedures, not diagnostic tests.
The device description and intended use clearly indicate that this is a therapeutic device used in the treatment of renal failure by filtering the patient's blood. It does not involve the analysis of a specimen outside of the body for diagnostic purposes.

Device Description
The Gambro Polyllex 6H Capillary Dialyzers/Filters, labeled for single use, have the same design, materials, intended use and function as other hemodialyzers / filters currently marketed in the United States.
These device is intended for use in hemodialysis, hemolitiration for the treatment of acute and chronic renal failure.
Considering blood flow, body weight and extracorporeal blood volume, the Polyflux 6H is intended for pediatric indication. The membrane used in this device is a blend of polyarylethersulfone (PAES), PVP, and Pobvanide, which is identical to the membranc used in the Gambro Polyflux H single use hemodialyzers cleared under 510(k) Notification (K030592) and the Polyflux L. dialyzers cleared under 510(k) Notification (K010985).
Blood enters a blood inlet port where it is distributed to the hollow fibers. The patient's blood traverses the inside of the hollow fibers and exits the device via a blood exit port. By means of a hydrostatic pressure or transmembrane pressure which is created by a combination of positive and negative pressures across the membrane, plasma water along with certain lower and middle molecular weight solutes pass through the membrane and into the dialysate or filtrate compartment of the device. Uremic toxins and waste products are removed from the patient's blood in this device by means of both diffusion and convection through the membrane and into the countercurrent flowing dialysis solution during hemodialysis. The dialysate exits the devices via a dialysate outlet port.

§ 876.5860 High permeability hemodialysis system.
(a)
Identification. A high permeability hemodialysis system is a device intended for use as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure, fluid overload, or toxemic conditions by performing such therapies as hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemoconcentration, and hemodiafiltration. Using a hemodialyzer with a semipermeable membrane that is more permeable to water than the semipermeable membrane of the conventional hemodialysis system (§ 876.5820), the high permeability hemodialysis system removes toxins or excess fluid from the patient's blood using the principles of convection (via a high ultrafiltration rate) and/or diffusion (via a concentration gradient in dialysate). During treatment, blood is circulated from the patient through the hemodialyzer's blood compartment, while the dialysate solution flows countercurrent through the dialysate compartment. In this process, toxins and/or fluid are transferred across the membrane from the blood to the dialysate compartment. The hemodialysis delivery machine controls and monitors the parameters related to this processing, including the rate at which blood and dialysate are pumped through the system, and the rate at which fluid is removed from the patient. The high permeability hemodialysis system consists of the following devices:(1) The hemodialyzer consists of a semipermeable membrane with an in vitro ultrafiltration coefficient (K
uf ) greater than 8 milliliters per hour per conventional millimeter of mercury, as measured with bovine or expired human blood, and is used with either an automated ultrafiltration controller or anther method of ultrafiltration control to prevent fluid imbalance.(2) The hemodialysis delivery machine is similar to the extracorporeal blood system and dialysate delivery system of the hemodialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5820), with the addition of an ultrafiltration controller and mechanisms that monitor and/or control such parameters as fluid balance, dialysate composition, and patient treatment parameters (e.g., blood pressure, hematocrit, urea, etc.).
(3) The high permeability hemodialysis system accessories include, but are not limited to, tubing lines and various treatment related monitors (e.g., dialysate pH, blood pressure, hematocrit, and blood recirculation monitors).
(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are FDA's:(1) “Use of International Standard ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Device—Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ”
(2) “Guidance for the Content of 510(k)s for Conventional and High Permeability Hemodialyzers,”
