Intended Use

Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) is intended for use in assisted reproductive procedures which involve the manipulation of gametes or embryos. Specifically, Multipurpose Handling Medium™) is indicated for use as an oocyte retrieval medium during ovarian follicle aspiration procedures (not for flushing ovarian follicles), washing sperm prior to IVF and ICSI fertilization procedures, and for transport of the embryo to the uterus during embryo transfer procedures.

Device Description

The Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) is based upon the mHTF (K983586) formulation. The formula for the Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) is based upon the composition of modified HTF, K983586. The medium uses a buffering system composed of HEPES (N-2-Hydroxyethylpiperazine-N1 - - 2 - - ethanesulfonic acid). MOPS . (3 Morpholinopropane - 1- sulfonic acid) and Sodium Bicarbonate. This buffering system provides pH maintenance over the physiologic range and does not require the use of a CO2 Incubator. - The product also contains 10 ug/mL gentamicin. Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) has utility as an oocyte retrieval medium, in procedures that aspirate oocytes from the patient's ovarian follicles. Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) is used only in the oocyte collection vessel and is not for use in flushing oocytes from ovarian follicles. Once the oocyte has been retrieved, it is placed into a culture dish with an appropriate amount of a culture medium (does not include MHM™), as specified by the user's internal procedures, and fertilization is allowed to occur. Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) can also be used to wash sperm in preparation for fertilization by conventional IVF or ICSI procedures. The fertilized oocyte (zygote) is allowed to grow in the culture dish, supported by a culture medium (does not include MHM™), as specified by the user's internal procedures, and an appropriate protein supplement, in a carbon dioxide incubator at 37°C until the desired stage of development is achieved. The embryo is removed from the culture dish, placed into an appropriate amount of Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) for transfer into the uterus. Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) is supplied as a ready to use liquid, in 100 and 500 mL bottles.

AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning)

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical composition and biological function of a handling medium for assisted reproductive procedures. There is no mention of AI or ML technology.

Therapeutic

Yes.
The device is used in assisted reproductive procedures involving the manipulation of gametes or embryos for fertilization and transfer into the human body, serving a therapeutic purpose.

Diagnostic

No

The device is a medium used for handling gametes and embryos in assisted reproductive procedures, such as oocyte retrieval, sperm washing, and embryo transfer, but it does not diagnose any condition or provide diagnostic information.

SaMD (Software as a Medical Device)

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a "ready to use liquid" and describes its chemical composition and physical form (bottles). This indicates a physical substance, not software.

IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)

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

Here's why:

• Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the medium is for "use in assisted reproductive procedures which involve the manipulation of gametes or embryos." It's used for handling, washing, and transporting these biological materials.
• Device Description: The description details the composition of the medium and its application in various steps of assisted reproduction (oocyte retrieval, sperm washing, embryo transfer). It facilitates the procedures themselves, rather than providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.
• Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: An IVD is typically used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease or other conditions. This medium does not perform such a function. It's a tool used during a medical procedure.
• Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the functionality of the medium in supporting embryo development (MEA) and sperm motility (HSSA), which are relevant to the success of the assisted reproductive procedures, not to diagnosing a patient's health status.

In summary, the Multipurpose Handling Medium™ (MHM™) is a medical device used in assisted reproductive technology procedures, but it does not meet the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
