No.

The device is a sterilization pouch/roll intended to enclose other medical devices for sterilization and maintain sterility. It includes external chemical indicators to show that it has undergone a sterilization process, but it does not diagnose a medical condition or disease.

No

The device described is a physical sterilization pouch and roll, not a software-only medical device. The description focuses on the materials, construction, and physical performance of the pouches and rolls for sterilization.

Based on the provided information, the SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to enclose devices for sterilization and maintain their sterility. This is a function related to the processing and storage of medical devices, not the diagnosis of diseases or conditions using samples from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the materials, construction, and function of the pouches and rolls for sterilization purposes. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies evaluate aspects like sterilant penetration, package integrity, sterility maintenance, and chemical indicator efficacy. These are all relevant to the sterilization process and packaging, not to diagnostic testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, the SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll falls under the category of a medical device used in the sterilization process, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

The testing results demonstrate the ability of the Sigma Sterilization Pouch and Roll to effectively adequate sterilant penetration to the most difficult areas to reach inside the packaging. The results confirm that the sterilant is able to penetrate the Sigma Sterilization Pouch and Roll and sustain direct contact with the medical instrument inside the package. And the result of aeration time validation test meets the requirements AAMI / ANSI / ISO 10993-7:2008.
  • � The Biocompatibility testing performed as described in ISO 10993-10:2010(E), ISO 10993-1:2009/Cor. 1:2010(E), ISO 10993-12:2007(E), and ISO/IEC 17025:2005. The testing results demonstrate the Sigma Sterilization Pouch and Roll showed "negative reaction". And the SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll meets the requirements ISO 10993-10:2010(E).
  • The Package Integrity, Material Compatibility, Sterility Maintenance testing performed as described in AAMI / ANSI / ISO 11607-1:2006, ISO 1924-2, ISO 5636-3, ASTM D 3078-02, ASTM D882, ASTM F 2251-03, ASTMD 1004, ASTME 1140-07, ASTME 1929-98 (04), ASTME 88-2007, ASTM F 1980-2007, ASTMF 1980-2007, and ASTM F 1608-00. The testing results demonstrate the ability of the Sigma Sterilization Pouch and Roll to effectively adequate Package Integrity.

● The Chemical Indicator Efficacy testing performed as described in AAMI / ANSI / ISO 11140-1:2005. The testing demonstrates the ability of the Sigma Sterilization Pouch and Roll to effectively stability of the Process Indicators Ink before use, the lasting quality (color stability) of the color change, the completeness and uniformity of the color change and color change is all or none at the conditions measured, unless a color standard is provided on the indicator. And the SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll meets the requirements ISO 11140-1:2005.
