More Information

No
The summary describes a surgical sling device and procedure, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes
The device is described as a suburethral sling intended for the placement of a suburethral sling to treat female stress urinary incontinence, which is a medical condition. This indicates a therapeutic purpose.

No

Explanation: The device description states its purpose is for "placement of a suburethral sling for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence," indicating a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function. It is a surgical implant for treatment, not for identifying a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes "two stainless steel curved needle passers and a mesh or mesh and graft sling assembly," which are physical hardware components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for the "placement of a suburethral sling for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI)". This is a surgical procedure performed on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details surgical tools (needle passers) and a sling assembly that are implanted within the body.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "suburethral," which is within the patient's body.

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 fit that description. It is a surgical implant used for treatment.
