No
The summary describes a simple mechanical adapter for dispensing medication and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis typically associated with AI/ML devices.

No
The device is described as an adapter for dispensing medication and is not the medication itself or a treatment modality. Its function is to facilitate the delivery of prescribed aerosol medication.

No
The device is described as a "single patient, disposable device for dispensing pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI) medication into a breathing circuit." Its purpose is to deliver medication, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device is described as a "single patient, disposable device for dispensing pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI) medication into a breathing circuit," which clearly indicates a physical, hardware component (an adapter).

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to dispense medication into a breathing circuit for patients. This is a therapeutic or drug delivery function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description (or lack thereof): There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status based on such testing.
  • No mention of diagnostic processes: The description focuses on the mechanical function of dispensing medication.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.
