No
The summary describes a standard dental unit and chair with no mention of AI/ML capabilities, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics. The performance studies listed are standard electrical and mechanical safety tests.

No
The device is a dental unit and chair, serving as a base and power supply for dental devices, and does not directly provide therapy to the patient.

No

The dental chair and unit are intended to provide a base and power for other dental devices and accessories, and to allow the patient to sit during diagnosis, treatment, and operations. It does not perform diagnostic functions itself.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical dental unit with a chair and various hardware components (dentist element, assistant element, water unit, arm system, cuspidor unit, dental light). The performance studies also focus on testing the physical and electrical safety and functionality of this hardware. There is no mention of software being the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the dental chair is used for the patient to sit on while the dentist performs diagnosis, treatment, and/or operation. It also mentions supplying power to and serving as a base for dental devices. This describes a device used directly on or with a patient for clinical procedures.
  • Device Description: The description details the components of a dental operative unit, all of which are physical components used in a dental setting for patient care.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs are typically laboratory-based or point-of-care tests that analyze biological samples.

The device described is a piece of dental equipment used in a clinical setting for patient positioning and supporting other dental instruments. This falls under the category of medical devices used for treatment and diagnosis, but not specifically as an in vitro diagnostic device.
