Intended Use
Viberect® Penile Vibratory Stimulation Device is a hand held medical device to provoke erections for men who experience erectile dysfunction.
Device Description
The Viberect® device is a hand held medical device intended for use by the person at home for the purpose of stimulating the nerves of the penis for the purpose of activating several nerve reflexes which are responsible for initiation of penile erection and rigidity. This device is unique in that it has two gentle vibrating motors that allow simultaneous vibratory stimulation of both the upper and lower surfaces of the penis. As each side of the male penis is supplied by different nerves, simultaneous stimulation of the upper and lower surfaces increases sexual response. The device is held by one hand easily, like holding a hair straightener. The penis is placed between the vibrating 'soft pads'. As pressure is increased to the device, it is automatically activated. The device can be deactivated by releasing the hand pressure which immediately shuts off the vibrating 'soft pads'. The touch pad on the Viberect provides further control by the user whereby the user can increase and decrease the frequency of vibration according to comfort and response. Finally, there are individual modes for the vibratory movement of the upper housing only, lower housing only, and both. The device is powered by rechargeable batteries. Vibratory stimulation for approximately 3-10 minutes is recommended.

No
The device description focuses on mechanical vibration and user control, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms for analysis, decision-making, or adaptation.

Yes
The device is described as "a hand held medical device to provoke erections for men who experience erectile dysfunction" and its purpose is to stimulate nerves to initiate penile erection and rigidity, which directly addresses a medical condition (erectile dysfunction).

No
The device's intended use is to provoke erections by stimulating nerves, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, hand-held device with vibrating motors, soft pads, and rechargeable batteries, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the Viberect® Penile Vibratory Stimulation Device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.
  • The Viberect device is a physical device that directly stimulates the penis externally. It does not analyze any biological samples.
  • Its intended use is to provoke erections through physical stimulation, not to diagnose or monitor a condition based on biological samples.

The description clearly indicates it's a hand-held medical device for external physical stimulation.
