No
The summary describes a physical suction device for removing surgical byproducts and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis.

No.
The device's intended use is to remove smoke, odors, gases, particles, and fluids during electrosurgery procedures, which is an ancillary function to the surgical procedure itself and not a direct therapeutic intervention.

No
The device is used to remove smoke, odors, gases, particles, and fluids from the surgical site during electrosurgery procedures. It does not diagnose any condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Electrosurgery Suction Device" which implies a physical hardware component for suction and removal of materials. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

Based on the provided information, the E-Vac Electrosurgery Suction 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.
  • E-Vac Function: The E-Vac device's intended use is to remove smoke, odors, gases, particles, and fluids directly from the surgical site during electrosurgery. This is a function performed on the patient during a procedure, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.

The device is a surgical accessory designed to improve the surgical environment and safety, not to diagnose or monitor a patient's health through laboratory testing.

Dear Mr. Nock:

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 (PMA), 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.
