No
The device is a physical sharps container and the description focuses on its physical properties and performance in various tests related to containment and durability. There is no mention of any software, data processing, or analytical capabilities that would suggest the use of AI or ML.
No
A sharps container is designed for the safe disposal of hazardous sharps to prevent injuries and the spread of infection, not to treat a medical condition or ailment.
No
The device is a sharps container for safe disposal of hazardous sharps, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description and performance studies clearly indicate that this is a physical sharps container, not a software-only device. The testing focuses on physical properties like puncture resistance, toppling resistance, and impact resistance.
Based on the provided text, the Ecoship Disposable Sharps Container is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Definition of IVD: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Intended Use/Device Description: The text clearly states the intended use of the Ecoship Disposable Sharps Container is for the "safe disposal of hazardous sharps" in various healthcare settings. It is a container for waste, not a device that performs tests on biological samples.
- Lack of IVD-related information: The document does not mention any analysis of biological specimens, diagnostic purposes, or any components typically associated with IVD devices (reagents, analyzers, etc.).
The device is a container for the safe handling and disposal of medical waste, specifically sharps.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Ecoship Disposable Sharps Container is intended to be used in healthcare facilities, including nursing stations, medication carts, laboratories, dental offices, emergency rooms, surgical rooms, treatment rooms, emergency vehicles, veterinarian offices and other small quantity waste generators for the safe disposal of hazardous sharps. The single-use device is intended for "Overthe-Counter" use. The container is eventually disposed of through a mail-back system or otherwise in accordance with local regulations. The manufacturer's bracket is required if the device is used on medication carts or in emergency vehicles.

Device Description
Ecoship Disposable Sharps Containers are single-use sharps containers designed for point-first disposal of sharps. The containers are intended for over-the-counter use for the safe disposal of sharps, i.e. articles that can penetrate human skin. This definition includes, but is not limited to needles, scalpels, syringes with needles, disposable scissors, suture needles, stylets, trocars and broken test tubes. The containers are intended to be used in supervised areas of human and veterinary healthcare facilities. These areas may include nursing stations, laboratories, dental offices, physician offices, clinics, emergency rooms, surgical rooms, treatment rooms, research facilities, veterinarian practices and other small quantity waste generators. The devices are also intended to be used in healthcare facility mail-back programs and in home healthcare by clinical staff.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
- Pucture Resistance (per CSA Z316.6-07 Evaluation of single-use and reusable medical sharps containers for biohazardous and cytotoxic waste): Needle puncture resistance was measured by taking various sections of a container and subjecting them to penetration with a 0.8 mm diameter needle. The force required to puncture the container was measured. The puncture resistance of each section of the container was greater than 20 N and the passing criterion was met.
- Toppling Resistance (per CSA Z316.6-07 Evaluation of single-use and reusable medical sharps containers for biohazardous and cytotoxic waste): Toppling resistance was measured by filling a container to nominal capacity with representative sharps material with a bulk density of 0.2 kg/liter and tilting it to a 15° angle. The container remained standing after being tilted, and the passing criterion was met.
- Toppling Resistance (per ISO 23907 Sharps injury protection - Requirements and test methods -Sharps containers): Toppling resistance was measured by filling a container to nominal capacity with representative sharps material with a bulk density of 0.2 kg/liter and tilting it to a 15° angle using the worst case challenge configurations. The container did not slide, and remained standing after being tilted, and the passing criteria were met.
- Impact Resistance (per CSA Z316.6-07 Evaluation of single-use and reusable medical sharps containers for biohazardous and cytotoxic waste): Impact resistance was measured by filling five containers to nominal capacity with representative sharps material with a bulk density of 0.2 kg/liter and surfactant solution equal to 6% of the nominal capacity. The containers were then conditioned at 23°C and dropped in a specific orientation from a height of no less than 1 meter. The containers did not rupture, tear, crack, open, or leak, and the passing criteria were met.
- Cold Impact Resistance (per CSA Z316.6-07 Evaluation of single-use and reusable medical sharps containers for biohazardous and cytotoxic waste): Cold impact resistance was measured by filling five containers with representative sharps material with a bulk density of 0.2 kg/liter. The containers were then conditioned at -18°C and dropped in a specific orientation from a height of no less than 1.2 meters. The containers did not rupture, tear, crack, open, or leak, and the passing criteria were met.
- Handle Strength (per CSA Z316.6-07 Evaluation of single-use and reusable medical sharps containers for biohazardous and cytotoxic waste): Handle strength was measured by filling a container to nominal capacity with material with a bulk density of 1 kg/liter and suspending it from the handle for 1 hour. The container remained intact and the handle did not rupture, tear, crack, or separate from the container. Therefore, the passing criteria were met.
- Drop Test (per United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods – Model Regulations, Part 6, "Requirements For the construction and testing of packagings, intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), large packagings and portable tanks): This test was performed by filling six containers with no less than 1.2 kg of polycarbonate granules to a minimum of 95% capacity and prepared as they would be used in transport. The containers were then conditioned at -18°C and dropped in one of two specific orientations from a height of no less than 1.2 meters. The containers were not damaged, and the passing criterion was met.
- Stacking Test (per United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods -Model Regulations, Part 6, "Requirements For the construction and testing of packagings, intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), large packagings and portable tanks): This test was performed by stacking three empty containers and prepared as they would be used in transport. A mass of 81 kg was then applied to the top of the stack for 24 hours at room temperature. The containers were not damaged, and the passing criterion was met.
- Vibration Test (per 49 CFR Part 178.608 Specifications for Packagings - Vibration Standard): This test was performed by filling three containers with polycarbonate granules to a minimum of 95% capacity, prepared as they would be used in transport. The containers were then vibrated (25 mm peak to peak at a frequency that induces displacement of 1.6 mm from the vibration plate) for 60 minutes at room temperature. The containers did not rupture, leak or deteriorate, and the passing criteria were met.
All testing demonstrated that the subject device is safe and effective for its intended use.
