The summary describes a simple fluid-filled teether and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis.
Yes.
The device is intended to relieve teething discomfort, which is a therapeutic effect.
No
The device is described as relieving discomfort, not diagnosing a condition.
No
The device is described as a "Fluid-filled Teether," which is a physical object and not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to relieve teething discomfort by providing a cool soothing effect. This is a physical interaction with the infant's gums, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.
- Device Description: While the description is "Not Found," the intended use clearly points away from diagnostic testing.
- No mention of biological samples: IVDs typically involve testing biological samples like blood, urine, saliva, etc. There is no indication of this here.
- No mention of diagnostic purpose: The purpose is therapeutic (soothing discomfort), not diagnostic (identifying a disease or condition).
Therefore, a fluid-filled teether for soothing teething discomfort does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Walls:
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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
