The device description and performance studies focus on biological indicators and their response to sterilization, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
Explanation: This device is a biological indicator used for monitoring the efficacy of sterilization processes, not for treating any medical condition or disease.
No
This device is a biological indicator used for monitoring the efficacy of sterilization processes, not for diagnosing a medical condition in a patient.
No
The device description clearly states it is a self-contained unit including bacterial spores, a paper filter carrier, a glass ampoule, and a plastic vial, which are all physical components, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "monitoring the efficacy of saturated steam sterilization processes." This involves testing a process (sterilization) to determine if it has been effective in killing microorganisms.
- Device Description: The device contains bacterial spores and a culture medium with a pH indicator. This setup is designed to detect the presence of viable microorganisms after a sterilization process. If the sterilization is ineffective, the spores will grow in the culture medium, causing a color change in the indicator.
- Nature of the Test: The test performed by this device is an in vitro test. It involves taking a sample (the biological indicator itself, which contains the spores) and testing it outside of a living organism to determine the effectiveness of the sterilization process.
While the device doesn't directly diagnose a disease in a patient, it is used to assess the effectiveness of a process (sterilization) that is critical for preventing the spread of infections and ensuring the safety of medical devices and materials used in patient care. This falls under the scope of IVD devices, which are used to examine specimens derived from the human body or to provide information about a physiological state, a state of health or disease, or a congenital abnormality. In this case, the information provided is about the effectiveness of a process that directly impacts human health.
The presence of a predicate device (K963841; SGM EZTest® - Steam), which is also a biological indicator for steam sterilization, further supports the classification of this device as an IVD.

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.
(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Statement of Similarity to the Legally Marketed Predicate Device:
- Both are intended to monitor steam sterilization cycles from 121°C to134°C. .
- . Both utilize the same strain of bacterial spores.
- . Both utilize the same carrier material.
- . Both use virtually the same media.
- . Both are similar in size and shape.
- . Both are activated in the same manner.
- . Both are incubated at the same temperature
Non-Clinical Testing:
Testing was performed in order to validate the indicators label claims and performance characteristics. Multiple lots of indicators were tested for;
- . Resistance
- . Spore population
- Media recovery in extended steam sterilization cycles .
- Effects of holding time
