No
The device is a simple physical cover for an ultrasound transducer and the description focuses on material properties and physical characteristics, with no mention of AI/ML or data processing.
No
The device is described as an "accessory used on diagnostic probes" to minimize cross-contamination and is not directly involved in treating a disease or condition. Its primary function is to provide a hygienic barrier.
No
The device is an accessory (probe cover) for diagnostic ultrasound procedures, not a diagnostic device itself. Its purpose is to minimize cross-contamination and protect the transducer.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical cover made of synthetic polyisoprene, a material, and describes its physical form and packaging. It is a hardware accessory.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for covering ultrasound probes during diagnostic ultrasound procedures to minimize cross-contamination, particularly for patients with potential latex sensitivity. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is a physical cover for an ultrasound transducer. Its function is to provide a barrier.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device itself does not perform any diagnostic test or provide any diagnostic information about a patient's condition. It is an accessory used with a diagnostic imaging device (ultrasound).
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical properties of the cover (viral penetration, stretch, pinhole, gel compatibility) and its biocompatibility. These are relevant to the safety and effectiveness of a physical barrier, not the performance of a diagnostic test.
IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health status. This device does not fit that description.

Device Description
"The Sheathing Technologies, Inc CIS-Isoprene Ultrasound Transducer Cover provides a thin, conformal covering to fit various and specific ultrasound transducer shapes. The cover is made by dipping to form a general cylindrical shape. It is closed at the proximal end and open at the distal end for insertion of the ultrasound transducer. This device is an accessory used on diagnostic probes to help minimize cross contamination. The cover material is a Cis-1,4-polyisoprene, a synthetic version of natural rubber latex made without using natural rubber latex in the formulation. Various sizes and shapes of covers are offered to address the variations in Ultrasound Transducer configurations. Product categories/models include: General Purpose SheathesISO Ultrasound Transducer Covers (sterile and non-sterile) Covers are packaged in both sterile and nonsterile, individually wrapped or in bag/box quantities, as well as in "procedure kit" form for single patient/procedure, disposable use. The "procedure kit" may include elastic fasteners, with or without coupling gel packets. Transducer covers are also combined with disposable needle guide devices into kits."

§ 892.1570 Diagnostic ultrasonic transducer.
(a)
Identification. A diagnostic ultrasonic transducer is a device made of a piezoelectric material that converts electrical signals into acoustic signals and acoustic signals into electrical signals and intended for use in diagnostic ultrasonic medical devices. Accessories of this generic type of device may include transmission media for acoustically coupling the transducer to the body surface, such as acoustic gel, paste, or a flexible fluid container.(b)
