Intended Use
The CODMAN® VPV™ System is designed for use only with CODMAN® HAKIM™ Programmable Valves in the treatment of hydrocephalus when shunting cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the ventricles of the brain. It is used to non-invasively adjust the CODMAN HAKIM Programmable Valve to the selected setting and provides confirmation of the valve adjustment, without the need for radiographic imaging when an "Adjustment Complete" message is displayed.
Device Description
The CODMAN® VPV™ System (VPV) is an accessory (multiple use) indicated for use only with the CODMAN® HAKIM Programmable Valve, in the treatment of hydrocephalus when shunting cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the ventricles of the brain. The system is comprised of the program unit, transmitter unit, a power cord, carrying case, and ultrasound gel. The VPV System allows the clinician to noninvasively increase or decrease the valve setting to meet the patient's particular clinical needs.
More Information

No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on mechanical adjustment and confirmation without mentioning any AI/ML capabilities.

No.
The device is an accessory used to non-invasively adjust a programmable valve, which is the therapeutic device.

No

The device is used to adjust a programmable valve and confirm the adjustment; it does not diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the system is comprised of a program unit, transmitter unit, power cord, carrying case, and ultrasound gel, indicating it includes hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The device is used to non-invasively adjust a programmable valve implanted in the brain to manage hydrocephalus. This is a therapeutic and monitoring function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is an accessory for a shunting system, used to adjust the valve setting. It does not analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, or CSF) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Mechanism of Action: The device uses ultrasound to interact with the implanted valve and adjust its setting. This is a physical interaction with an implanted medical device, not an in vitro analysis of a biological sample.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

§ 882.5550 Central nervous system fluid shunt and components.

(a)
Identification. A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
