No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical/physical, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or any related computational processing.
No
The device is a sterilization container system, which is used to sterilize other medical devices and maintain their sterility. It does not directly treat or diagnose a medical condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a sterilization container system, not a diagnostic device. Its purpose is to enclose medical devices for sterilization and maintain their sterility, not to diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components made of materials like Radel R 5000/5008 and PTFE, and the intended use describes a physical container system for sterilization. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "reusable sterilization container system" used to "enclose another medical device that is to be sterilized by a healthcare provider." Its purpose is to facilitate sterilization and maintain sterility of other medical devices.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This is the core function of an IVD.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components and materials of the container system, not on any analytical or diagnostic capabilities.
The device is a medical device, but it falls under the category of sterilization and containment systems, not in vitro diagnostics.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
Aesculap®, Inc. believes that the SterilContainer with PrimeLine Lids is substantially equivalent to:
Aesculap Sterilcontainer System (Flash Indication) (K053389)
Reusable SterilContainer Filter (K041623)
Rigid Container System (K944864)
Aesculap Sterilcontainer System (K792558)
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The Aesculap SterilContainer with PrimeLine Lid is used in conjunction with Aesculap's Sterilcontainer System (K792558 & K944864).

TECHNOLIGICAL CHARACTERISTICS(compared to predicate(s))
The Aesculap PrimeLine Container Lid is made from Radel R5000/5008 and is similar to Aesculap's Tufflite lid which is manufactured from Jadex. Both are a polyphenylsulfone resin. The PrimeLine Container Lid is compatible for use with pre-vacuum steam and pre-vacuum flash sterilization. Aesculap's Sterilization Container System was cleared for use in pre-vacuum steam and pre-vacuum flash. The PrimeLine Container Lid utilizes an integrated reusable PTFE filter. The reusable PTFE filter is the same as Aesculap's Reusable Sterilcontainer Filter. The PrimeLine Container Lid is offered in a similar range of sizes as the predicates.
PERFORMANCE DATA
The Aesculap Sterilcontainer system was fully validated for the steam and flash sterilization in a prevacuum steam and flash cycle. This validation was conducted in accordance with FDA guidance and available AAMI standards by a qualified testing laboratory.
