More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a conductive garment for TENS therapy and electrode placement, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is intended for symptomatic relief and management of chronic pain, which is a therapeutic function. It is used in conjunction with TENS, a recognized therapeutic modality.

No

The device is described as providing symptomatic relief and assisting in the positioning of electrodes for TENS. It does not mention detection, diagnosis, or assessment of a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device includes a conductive belt and electrodes, which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, the Lumbofix® Conductive Garment is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Lumbofix® Function: The Lumbofix® Conductive Garment is a physical garment used externally on the body. Its function is to facilitate the application and positioning of electrodes for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapy, which is a non-invasive method for pain relief. It does not analyze any biological samples.

The intended use and device description clearly indicate its role in supporting TENS therapy for pain management, which is an external therapeutic application, not an in vitro diagnostic process.
