No
The device description clearly states it consists of a reusable handle and a multi-component assembly, which are physical hardware components used for collecting cervical cytology material.
Based on the provided information, the Diamics CerCol Cervical Sample Collector is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device itself.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the collection of cervical cytology material and its transfer for Pap analysis. It is a tool for obtaining the sample.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical aspects of collecting the sample (expanding and manipulating the collector to contact the cervix).
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device itself does not perform any analysis or testing of the collected sample to provide diagnostic information. The analysis (Pap analysis) is performed after the sample is collected using this device.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the effectiveness of the device in collecting a satisfactory sample, not on the diagnostic accuracy of the device itself.
- Predicate Devices: The predicate devices listed (Pap Perfect Plastic Spatula, Cytobrush Plus GT Gentle Touch) are also sample collection devices, not IVD devices.
In summary, the Diamics CerCol Cervical Sample Collector is a sample collection device used as part of a process that ultimately leads to an in vitro diagnostic test (Pap analysis). It is not the diagnostic device itself.

Indications for Use:
The Diamics CerCol Cervical Sample Collector is indicated for the collection of cervical cytology material and its transfer for Pap analysis. The Diamics CerCol Cervical Sample Collector is not intended for use in pregnant women.
The Indications for Use for the Diamics CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector System has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics in sampling of cervical tissue as compared to the predicate device, the MedScand Sample Collection Kit, Cytyc Part # 70124-001, consisting of the Pap Perfect® Plastic Spatula and Cytobrush® Plus GT Gentle Touch. No new questions of safety or efficacy are raised and information is provided in this submission to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the devices.
Technical Characteristics:
The CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector and the predicate device, Cytobrush Plus GT Gentle Touch, are designed to collect and transport exfoliated cervical cells for Pap analysis. The predicate device and the CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector device in this premarket notification are similar in that both devices are manually manipulated by the hand of the clinician or physician to collect cervical cells. Neither the predicate device nor the Diamics CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector device is recommended for use in pregnant women.
The predicate device consists of a brush with bristles of various lengths, designed to randomly collect cells from the contours of the cervix. The middle and longest bristles of the predicate device reach deep into the endocervical canal and the shorter bristles touch both the ectocervical and transition zone.
The CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector is designed with an elastomer tip that conforms to the endocervical canal, and collects cells from the endocervix, the ectocervix and the transition zone. The predicate device is rotated five times by the CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector is designed to be rotated slightly to thirty degrees by the user.
Once the sample has been collected with the predicate device, the specimen is prepared for laboratory analysis. The sample may be transferred to a slide by rubbing the brush over the surface of the slide. Or, the sample may be transferred to a vial containing liquid preservative by either breaking the brush head off into a preservative vial. In a similar manner, the sample is transferred from the CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector for analysis by immersing the Collector tip into a similar vial of liquid preservative. Despite the minor differences in collection and transfer of the samples to liquid preservative, the devices are equivalent.
The materials used to manufacture both devices have been tested for biocompatibility and have been determined to be safe for their intended use. No chemicals are used to manufacture the Diamics CerCol™ Cervical Sample Collector device that is subject of this premarket notification.
