The summary describes a mechanical surgical stapler and delivery system with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No.
The device is used for approximation of soft tissues and fixation of surgical mesh, which is a surgical procedure rather than a therapeutic treatment for a disease or condition. Its function is to facilitate the repair, not to provide therapy itself.
No
The device is described as a surgical stapler for approximating soft tissues and fixating surgical mesh, which is a treatment and not a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly states it is a surgical stapler composed of a disposable delivery instrument and resorbable fixation devices, which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the EasyTac Anchor and delivery system is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "approximation of soft tissues and fixation of surgical mesh to tissues during laparoscopic surgical procedures such as hernia repair." This describes a surgical device used in vivo (within the body) for mechanical purposes.
- Device Description: The description details a "surgical stapler" with components like a handle, trigger, shaft, and needle. This aligns with a surgical instrument, not a device used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body).
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test or analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a patient's health status, diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases.
IVD devices are specifically designed for testing biological samples outside the body. The EasyTac Anchor is a surgical tool used inside the body during a procedure.
