No
The device description and intended use focus on a physical catheter and its function in delivering medication, with no mention of AI or ML technologies. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".
No
The device is an infusion catheter, which is used to deliver medication (local anesthetic) for pain relief, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition itself. It's a delivery system rather than a therapeutic agent.
No
The device is an infusion catheter used for delivering medication, not for diagnosing conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like PVC tubing, a stainless needle, and a monofilament loop, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body ("in vitro").
- STA Cath Function: The STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter is used to directly infuse medication into a surgical site or body cavity within the patient's body ("in vivo"). It is a delivery device, not a diagnostic testing device.
The description clearly states its purpose is for the "infusion of a local anesthetic into a surgical site or body cavity, post-operatively, for the relief of pain." This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

Device Description
The STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter is an open end style catheter similar to the Alpha Cath™ Infusion Catheter. This catheter consists of a length of PVC tubing which functions as a flow restrictor. The proximal end of the tubing has a stainless needle for insertion into the Alpha Infusion Pump. The distal end of the tubing contains axial slit ports near the distal tip which are designed to infuse medication in case the end of the catheter becomes blocked.
The distal end of the catheter has a short length of tubing attached to it. A loop of monofilament extends beyond both ends of this attached tube, and is used by the physician to draw a 4-0 suture, placed at an attachment site in the patient, through the attached tube in order to temporarily hold the catheter in place.

§ 880.5725 Infusion pump.
(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Comparison:
Intended Use:
Conclusion:
The STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter is intended for use with the Alpha Infusion Pump for the infusion of a local anesthetic into a surgical site or body cavity, post-operatively, for the relief of pain. The STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter is intended for use in the hospital or by an ambulatory patient.
There is no new technology added in the construction of the STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter compared to the Alpha Cath Infusion Catheter. The difference between the STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter and the Alpha Cath™ Infusion Catheter is that the STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter incorporates a feature which enables the catheter to be temporarily attached to body tissues.
The attachment feature on the STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter function similarly to the attachment features on other catheters such as the suture holes on the connectors of hemodialysis catheters, the implantable cuffs on hemodialysis and central venous catheters, the balloons on Foley catheters, and the pigtails on urethral catheters. All of these retention features hold the catheter temporarily in place during use of the catheter.
The STA Cath® Attachable Infusion Catheter is substantially equivalent to the existing Alpha Cath™ Infusion Catheter in design and operation and is substantially equivalent to other catheters such as Foley catheters which use a temporary means to hold the catheter in place during use.
