No
The device is a breathing filter used with ventilators and anesthesia machines for gas filtration, not for treating a disease or condition.
No
This device is a breathing filter used with ventilators and anesthesia machines for gas filtration, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states "Breathing Filters Bacterial," indicating a physical hardware component. The intended use also describes the filter's placement within breathing circuits, further confirming it is not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device's function in filtering gases within a breathing circuit for ventilators and anesthesia machines. This is a mechanical function related to patient respiration, not the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
- Device Description: The description "Breathing Filters Bacterial" further reinforces its function as a filter for breathing gases.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: The provided text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information
- Measuring biomarkers or analytes
- Use in a laboratory setting
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used in respiratory support, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
For use with ventilators, anaesthesia machines and open flow systems where filtration of inspired and expired gases is required. The filter may be located at the machine end of expiratory and/or inspiratory limb of the circuit or at the patient end of the circuit
Single patient use up to 24 hours.
