No
The summary describes a simple over-the-counter urine test for pregnancy detection, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or complex data analysis that would typically indicate the use of such technologies.

No
A therapeutic device is used to treat or cure a disease or condition. This device is for detection of pregnancy, and does not provide therapy.

Yes
The device is intended for the detection of pregnancy, which is a diagnostic purpose.

No

The description clearly states the device is an "over-the-counter urine hCG test," which is a physical test kit, not a software-only device.

Yes, the Clearblue Easy Digital Pregnancy Test is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "urine hCG test which is intended for the detection of pregnancy." This involves testing a biological sample (urine) outside of the body to diagnose a condition (pregnancy).
  • Over-the-counter: While it's an over-the-counter device, this doesn't preclude it from being an IVD. Many IVDs are designed for home use.

The definition of an IVD generally involves devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This description fits the Clearblue Easy Digital Pregnancy Test perfectly.

Dear Ms. Roberts:

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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
