More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a physical device (a spacer) and its performance characteristics related to material properties, sterilization, and shelf life. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational analysis of data.

Yes
The device is used to maintain an opening in the frontal sinuses post-surgery and prevent obstruction, which are actions that contribute to the healing process and improved patient outcome.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a postoperative spacer to maintain an opening and prevent obstruction, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly indicates it is a physical spacer intended for surgical implantation, not a software product. The performance studies also focus on physical properties like sterilization, pyrogenicity, and shelf life.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the MicroFlow Spacer is a physical device intended to be placed within the frontal sinuses after surgery to maintain an opening and prevent obstruction. It is a physical implant/spacer, not a test performed on a sample.

The information provided describes a surgical device used for post-operative care, not a diagnostic test.
