The summary describes a physical implant and delivery system, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device is indicated for reinforcement of soft tissue, which is a structural support function rather than a direct therapeutic intervention for a disease or condition.
No
The device is described as a "Refine™ Support System" which is an "implant" used for "reinforcement of soft tissue in plastic or reconstructive procedures." This description indicates a therapeutic or supportive function rather than a diagnostic one (identifying a disease or condition).
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a non-absorbable implant and a delivery system, which are physical components, 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 for "reinforcement of soft tissue in plastic or reconstructive procedures." This describes a surgical implant used directly on a patient's body, not a test performed on samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue).
- Device Description: The description details a "non-absorbable implant and a delivery system" consisting of mesh and sutures. This is consistent with a surgical device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a surgical implant used for structural support within the body.
