The device description and performance studies focus on a biological indicator that changes color based on sterilization effectiveness, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No.
The device is a biological indicator used to monitor the effectiveness of a sterilization process, not a therapeutic device used for treating a medical condition.
No
The device monitors the effectiveness of a sterilization system by indicating whether sterilization has failed, rather than diagnosing a medical condition in a patient.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical biological indicator (SCBI) with a vial, media ampoule, and requires activation and incubation. It is a hardware device used to monitor a sterilization process.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to monitor a sterilization system (Amsco® V-PRO™ 1 Low Temperature Sterilization System). It is used to assess the effectiveness of the sterilization process, not to diagnose a condition or disease in a patient.
- Device Description: The device contains biological indicators (spores) and growth media. Its function is to determine if the sterilization process has killed the spores. This is a quality control measure for the sterilization equipment, not a diagnostic test performed on a patient sample.
- Anatomical Site and Patient Information: The description explicitly states "Not Applicable" for Anatomical Site and "Not Applicable" for Indicated Patient Age Range. This further reinforces that the device is not used in direct relation to a patient's body or health status.
- Lack of Patient Sample Analysis: IVDs are designed to analyze samples taken from the human body (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a patient's health. This device does not interact with or analyze any patient samples.
In summary, the Verify® V24 Self-Contained Biological Indicator is a sterilization process indicator, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Verify V24 Self-Contained Biological Indicator (SCBI) is used by healthcare providers to monitor the Amsco® V-PROTM 1 Low Temperature Sterilizer. It is designed to accompany medical devices placed in the sterilizer.
The user places the packaged Verify V24 SCBI into the V-PRO 1 Low Temperature Sterilization System and performs a sterilization cycle. After cycle completion, the SCBI can either be immediately activated or it can be held at room temperature for a maximum of 72 hours (3 days) prior to activation.
The SCBI is activated by sealing the vial and rupturing the medium ampoule using the STERIS Verify SCBI HP activator. The activator automatically seals the SCBI vial and releases the growth media.
The activated SCBI is incubated at 55 - 60 ℃. The SCBI indicates a pass if the media remains orange and non-turbid. The SCBI indicates a failure of sterilization if the media changes from orange to yellow and/or if the media is turbid.
The modified Verify V24 Self-Contained Biological Indicator is identical in design to the original K073244 device with exception of the media formulation. It is identical with respect to performance specifications with exception of the incubation time.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Summary of nonclinical tests performed to confirm the performance of the modified culture media:
Growth Inhibition Testing & Effect of Sterilization Process on Recovery Media: Pass (There was no growth inhibition and no effect of the sterilization process on the media.)
Incubation Time Validation: Pass (24 hour Incubation)
Media Performance Evaluations: Pass (All viability control SCBIs displayed growth within 24 hrs. Media was present and the color remained yellow for 7 days. All uninoculated SCBIs were sterile and the media remained orange for 7 days)
Media Stability Evaluation: Pass (On Going Stability Evaluation)
The test results indicate that the proposed Verify V24 Self-Contained Biological Indicator is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

§ 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).

Dear Mr. Scoville:
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.
