No
The device is a chemical indicator that changes color based on exposure to steam sterilization parameters. There is no mention of any computational or learning components.
No.
The device is a chemical indicator used to demonstrate that items have been exposed to a steam sterilization process, not to treat a medical condition or disease.
No
Explanation: The device is a process indicator for steam sterilization, designed to show if an item has been exposed to a sterilization process. It does not diagnose any medical condition or disease in a patient.
No
The device description clearly states it is ink printed onto paper substrates (tape, cardstock, labels), which are physical components, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic). Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "demonstrate that the unit or load has been exposed to a steam sterilization process and to distinguish between processed and unprocessed units or loads." This is a quality control function for sterilization, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample to determine a medical condition.
- Device Description: The device is a chemical indicator that changes color when exposed to steam. It's applied to items being sterilized. This is not a device designed to analyze biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing information about a patient's health status
- Being used in a laboratory setting for diagnostic purposes
The device is clearly intended for monitoring the effectiveness of a sterilization process, which is a critical step in healthcare but is not an in vitro diagnostic procedure.

Device Description
The 3MTM ComplyTM Lead Free Process Indicators for Steam provides immediate identification of processed items. The chemical indicator ink does not contain lead as part of the reaction chemistry and can be printed onto suitable paper substrates. As an example, the ink is printed onto adhesive-coated crepe paper for autoclave tape, onto cardstock for record cards, and onto adhesive-coated labelstock for indicator labels on test packs.
The purpose of this submission is to:
- Replace the lead ink in the current 3M™ Comply™ Autoclave Tape with Lead . Free Ink. The current Comply Autoclave Tape was cleared under K932129
- Apply the Lead Free Ink to cardstock as a new 3M™ Comply™ Record Card .
- Replace the lead ink in the process indicators on the labels currently used to . secure all 3M™ Comply™ test packs. The use of the Lead Free Ink in process indicators on labels securing the Lead Free Bowie Dick test pack was cleared under K093199. This filing will extend its use to other test packs for steam.

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.
(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Dear Dr. Leung:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
