No
The description focuses on mechanical resection and suction, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.
No
The device is used for resection and removal of tissue, which is a surgical tool, not a therapeutic device.
No
The device is a surgical instrument for resecting and removing tissue, described as a "Morcellator System" intended for gynecological procedures. It is not described as performing any diagnostic function like imaging, analysis, or measurement for identifying a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states the system consists of a control unit, handpiece, and footswitch, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the TRUCLEAR™ Morcellator System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "resect and remove endometrial tissue" for specific gynecological conditions (submucous myomas and endometrial polyps). This is a surgical procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample of the patient's body outside the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
- Device Description: The device is described as a mechanical system for cutting and removing tissue. This aligns with a surgical tool, not a diagnostic test.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, using reagents, or providing diagnostic information based on the analysis of a sample.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue samples) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a person's health. The TRUCLEAR Morcellator System is a surgical device used in vivo (inside the body) to remove tissue.

§ 884.1690 Hysteroscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A hysteroscope is a device used to permit direct viewing of the cervical canal and the uterine cavity by a telescopic system introduced into the uterus through the cervix. It is used to perform diagnostic and surgical procedures other than sterilization. This generic type of device may include obturators and sheaths, instruments used through an operating channel, scope preheaters, light sources and cables, and component parts.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for hysteroscope accessories that are not part of a specialized instrument or device delivery system; do not have adapters, connectors, channels, or do not have portals for electrosurgical, laser, or other power sources. Such hysteroscope accessory instruments include: lens cleaning brush, cannula (without trocar or valves), clamp/hemostat/grasper, curette, instrument guide, forceps, dissector, mechanical (noninflatable), and scissors. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 884.9.
