The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical function and compatibility with existing breast pumps, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
Explanation: The device is intended for expressing human milk, which is not considered a therapeutic function. Therapeutic devices are typically used for the treatment or prevention of diseases or medical conditions.
No
The device is a milk collection system for a breast pump, not a diagnostic tool. Its purpose is to collect expressed human milk, not to diagnose any condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a funnel-shaped breast adapter, internal valve assembly, and enclosing reservoir, indicating it is a hardware device for milk collection.
Based on the provided information, the Freemie milk collection system is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "for the purpose of expressing human milk." This is a physical process of collecting a biological fluid from the body, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a sample.
- Device Description: The description details a system for collecting milk during pumping. It doesn't mention any components or processes for analyzing or testing the milk itself.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There are no mentions of analyzing the milk for any markers, conditions, or information about the patient's health.
- Comparison to Predicate Devices: The predicate devices listed are also breast pumps and collection systems, which are not IVDs.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The Freemie system's function is purely for the collection of milk, not for its diagnostic analysis.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Freemie milk collection system is intended to be used in conjunction with an approved electric breast pump for the purpose of expressing human milk.

Device Description
The device is to be used by connection to an approved breast pump, and will be used in place of the pump's original breast milk collection equipment. The device has a funnel-shaped breast adapter, internal valve assembly and enclosing reservoir shaped like a bowl. Variations of the device incorporate minor differences to replicate the functional and performance characteristics necessary for use with additional pump brands. Additionally, smaller and larger breast adapter and milk collection sizes will be available, as is the practice with predicate devices. The Freemie device is designed to be supported within a woman's ordinary or nursing brassiere, and held in place there while the lactating woman is pumping. When the pump extracts milk, the milk flows out through the end of the funnel and enclosing valve system, where it gathers and is collected in the cup. When the lactating woman is done pumping, she turns off the pump, removes the Freemie from her brassiere and transfers the milk to a storage container for later use.
