More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly define it as a physical foam cushion for patient comfort and positioning, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing.

No
The device's intended use is for patient comfort and positioning during imaging, not for treating a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is described as providing padding for patient comfort and aid in positioning during radiologic visualization, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "radiolucent foam cushion," which is a physical hardware component, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the device is a "radiolucent foam cushion used during radiologic visualization of the breast." Its purpose is to provide comfort and aid in positioning during imaging procedures.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not interact with or analyze any biological samples from the patient. It is a physical aid used externally during an imaging process.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is focused on improving the imaging process itself, not on analyzing biological markers or providing diagnostic information from a sample.

Therefore, the MammoPad falls under the category of a medical device used in conjunction with an imaging modality, but it is not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Higgins:

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 (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Image /page/2/Picture/10 description: The image is a black and white circular logo. The logo has the letters "FDA" in the center. Above the letters are the numbers "1906-2006". Below the letters is the word "Centennial". There are three stars below the word "Centennial".

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:
