Intended Use
The Portable Oxygen Generator (POG) is intended to produce oxygen for emergency use at 6 lpm for at least 15 minutes.
Device Description
The Molecular Products' POG is a chemical based portable oxygen generator which generates 99% oxygen for 15 minutes at a flow rate of 6 lpm. It is a self-contained device with the oxygen delivered via a standard oxygen face mask or nasal cannula.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a chemical-based oxygen generator with no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes
The device is intended to produce oxygen for emergency use, which addresses a medical need and thus qualifies as a therapeutic function.

No
The device is described as an oxygen generator for emergency use, producing oxygen for at least 15 minutes. It does not perform any diagnostic functions like detecting, monitoring, or analyzing health conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "chemical based portable oxygen generator" and a "self-contained device," indicating it is a hardware device that produces oxygen.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "produce oxygen for emergency use". This is a therapeutic or life-support function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device generates oxygen for breathing. This is a direct intervention on the patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in those samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions.

The device is clearly intended to provide oxygen directly to a patient, which falls under the category of a medical device for therapeutic or life-support purposes, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
