More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use describe mechanical devices for anchoring and dilating, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is also explicitly "Not Found".

No
The devices are intended to facilitate the placement of feeding tubes, not to treat a condition or disease directly.

No

Explanation: The device is intended to affix the stomach to the anterior abdominal wall and facilitate stoma tract dilation for enteral feeding tubes, which are procedural and therapeutic functions, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like T-Bars, sutures, needles, and dilator sleeves made of HDPE, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

Based on the provided information, these devices are not IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use and device descriptions clearly indicate that these devices are used on the human body (affixing the stomach, dilating a stoma tract) and are not involved in testing or analyzing biological samples.
  • The devices are surgical/procedural tools. The descriptions detail components like T-Fasteners, sutures, needles, and dilator sleeves, which are all instruments used in medical procedures.

Therefore, these devices fall under the category of medical devices used for surgical or procedural interventions, not in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 876.5980 Gastrointestinal tube and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A gastrointestinal tube and accessories is a device that consists of flexible or semi-rigid tubing used for instilling fluids into, withdrawing fluids from, splinting, or suppressing bleeding of the alimentary tract. This device may incorporate an integral inflatable balloon for retention or hemostasis. This generic type of device includes the hemostatic bag, irrigation and aspiration catheter (gastric, colonic, etc.), rectal catheter, sterile infant gavage set, gastrointestinal string and tubes to locate internal bleeding, double lumen tube for intestinal decompression or intubation, feeding tube, gastroenterostomy tube, Levine tube, nasogastric tube, single lumen tube with mercury weight balloon for intestinal intubation or decompression, and gastro-urological irrigation tray (for gastrological use).(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls). The barium enema retention catheter and tip with or without a bag that is a gastrointestinal tube and accessory or a gastronomy tube holder accessory is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I (general controls) for the dissolvable nasogastric feed tube guide for the nasogastric tube. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 876.9.
