Intended Use
The Arctic Blast® Intravenous Fluid Chiller is intended to cool sterile solutions during intravenous administration where clinically indicated for reduction of patient temperature.
Device Description
The Arctic Blast Intravenous Fluid Chiller is composed of two main components: a heat exchanger assembly and an adsorption cooling module. The sterile fluid path is incorporated in the heat exchange assembly, which consists of the heat exchanger, a spike with vented drip chamber at the heat exchanger inlet, and a spike receptacle at the heat exchanger outlet. Prior to activation, the heat exchanger assembly inlet (spike) is connected to a liter bag of sterile fluid, and the outlet (spike port) is connected to a standard commercially-available intravenous infusion set. The heat exchanger assembly is constructed of materials and components which are commonly used in the manufacture of commercially-available intravenous infusion sets. The cooling module provides the cooling capability of the device via an adsorption process. The cooling module does not require an external power source. The cooling process is activated by pressing a button on the module. The cooling module is fully sealed and does not come into direct contact with the sterile fluid path.

The description focuses on a physical cooling mechanism (adsorption process) and mechanical components, with no mention of AI, ML, or software-driven decision-making based on data.

No.
The device is intended to cool intravenous fluids for reduction of patient temperature, but it does not directly treat or diagnose a disease or condition; it only alters the temperature of a fluid administered to the patient.

No

The Arctic Blast® Intravenous Fluid Chiller is intended for cooling fluids during intravenous administration to reduce patient temperature (therapeutic use), not for diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like a heat exchanger assembly and an adsorption cooling module, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the Arctic Blast® Intravenous Fluid Chiller is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to cool sterile solutions during intravenous administration to reduce patient temperature. This is a therapeutic intervention applied directly to the patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device cools fluid that is administered intravenously. It does not analyze or test any biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or processes typically associated with IVD devices, such as reagents, assays, sample handling, or analysis of biological markers.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The Arctic Blast device's function is to modify the temperature of a fluid being administered to the patient, which is a therapeutic action, not a diagnostic one.
