The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on mechanical compression.
Yes
The device is described as a "non-invasive mechanical prophylactic system that massages the feet or legs in a wavelike, milking motion that promotes blood flow and deters thrombosis" and "This therapy typically complements other prophylactic measures". Its intended use is to "increase venous blood flow in at risk patients in order to help prevent deep vein thrombosis", indicating a direct therapeutic action to prevent a medical condition.
No
The device is described as a non-invasive mechanical prophylactic system intended to prevent deep vein thrombosis by promoting blood flow, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "non-invasive mechanical prophylactic system" that "massages the feet or legs" by "inflating periodically a sleeve around the limb." This clearly indicates the presence of hardware components (sleeves, inflation mechanism) beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the Caremed Supply Inc. VESOFLOW®PLUS SQS and IPCS Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Compression Devices are not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- VESOFLOW®PLUS Function: The description clearly states that the VESOFLOW®PLUS is a "non-invasive mechanical prophylactic system" that "massages the feet or legs in a wavelike, milking motion that promotes blood flow and deters thrombosis." It works by applying external compression to the limbs.
- No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device collecting or analyzing any biological specimens from the patient. Its function is purely mechanical and external.
Therefore, the VESOFLOW®PLUS falls under the category of a therapeutic or prophylactic medical device, not an IVD.

Device Description
VESOFLOW®PLUS that counteracts blood stasis and coagulation changes - two of the three major factors that promote deep vein thrombosis (DVT). VESOFLOW® PLUS is a non-invasive mechanical prophylactic system that massages the feet or legs in a wavelike, milking motion that promotes blood flow and deters thrombosis, helping to empty pooled or static blood from the valve cusps of the femoral vein. Fibrinolytic activity is increased, stimulating the release of a plasminogen activator. This therapy typically complements other prophylactic measures, such as antiembolic stockings and anticoagulants.
VESOFLOW®PLUS is used to prevent pooling of blood in a limb by inflating periodically a sleeve around the limb. Therefore, VESOFLOW®PLUS is identified as a compressible limb sleeve.
