The device description and performance studies focus on a simple chemical indicator with a color change based on temperature exposure, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The device is a process indicator that changes color when exposed to dry heat and is used to show that an item has been exposed to a sterilization process, not to treat a condition or disease.
No
The device is a process indicator that changes color when exposed to dry heat, indicating exposure to a dry heat process, not diagnosing a medical condition or disease.
No
The device is a physical label with indicator ink that changes color, clearly describing a hardware component and not a software-only 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 indicate exposure to dry heat in a specific temperature range. It's a process indicator for sterilization, not a diagnostic tool used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
- Device Description: The description reinforces its function as a process indicator based on a color change due to heat exposure.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document lacks any mention of:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
- Input imaging modality, anatomical site, or patient age range, which are common in diagnostic devices.
Therefore, the Verify® Dry Heat Label is a sterilization process indicator, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The proposed Verify® Dry Heat Label consists of indicator ink applied to a substrate using a rotary screen printing method. When exposed to dry heat in the temperature range of 160°C to 180°C the indicator ink changes color from amber to black. The indicator is not intended to indicate that specific sterilization parameters have been met, but simply that the indicator has been exposed to a dry heat process.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Albert Browne Ltd. has performed testing which demonstrates that the Verify® Dry Heat Label conforms to the applicable requirements of ANSI/AAMI ST60 for Class I process indicators for dry heat sterilization. Additional testing showed that the indicator performed as designed in dry heat sterilization cycles in the range of 160°C to 180°C.

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.
(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

When exposed to dry heat in the temperature range of 160°C to 180°C the indicator ink changes color from amber to black. The indicator is not intended to indicate that specific sterilization parameters have been met, but simply that the indicator has been exposed to a dry heat process.
6. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The technological characteristics of the Verify® Dry Heat Label indicator and the predicate device are similar. Both the proposed and predicate devices consist of indicator ink applied to a substrate that can be applied to packaged goods prior to dry heat sterilization.
7. PERFORMANCE TESTING
Albert Browne Ltd. has performed testing which demonstrates that the Verify® Dry Heat Label conforms to the applicable requirements of ANSI/AAMI ST60 for Class I process indicators for dry heat sterilization. Additional testing showed that the indicator performed as designed in dry heat sterilization cycles in the range of 160°C to 180°C.

Dear Ms. Nolte:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls.
