The summary describes a hemodialysis machine and its accessories, focusing on mechanical, hydraulic, and software control systems for performing dialysis. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The Crit-Line Clip Monitor measures physiological parameters but the intervention based on this data is described as being performed by a clinician/nurse under physician direction, not an automated AI/ML system.
Yes.
The device is clearly indicated for "acute and chronic dialysis therapy" and "extracorporeal bicarbonate hemodialysis for acute and chronic renal failure," which describe therapeutic interventions for medical conditions.
Yes
Explanation: The "Crit-Line Clip Monitor" described in the "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section non-invasively measures hematocrit, oxygen saturation, and percent change in blood volume in real-time, providing data for the clinician/nurse to intervene in the patient's dialysis treatment. This act of measuring physiological parameters to inform treatment decisions qualifies it as a diagnostic function.
No
The device description explicitly states that the devices are "medical electrical systems controlled by software" and describes various mechanical and hydraulic components. The performance studies also include "Hardware Testing" and "Mechanical Testing," indicating the presence of significant hardware.
Based on the provided text, the devices described are not IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The text describes devices that perform hemodialysis, which is a process of filtering blood outside the body using an extracorporeal circuit. While the process involves blood, the devices themselves are not analyzing the blood in vitro (in a test tube or other artificial environment) to diagnose a condition.
- The intended use is for dialysis therapy. The primary function of these devices is to treat renal failure by removing toxins and excess water from the blood. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one.
- The Crit-Line Clip Monitor measures parameters in real-time during treatment. While the Crit-Line Clip Monitor measures hematocrit, oxygen saturation, and percent change in blood volume, it does so during the dialysis treatment to help guide the therapy. This is monitoring during treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic test performed on a separate sample.
Therefore, the devices described are medical devices used for treatment, not in vitro diagnostic devices.

Device Description
Hemodialysis machines are used for performing dialysis therapy. The machines pump blood from the patient's body through an extracorporeal circuit which contains a semipermeable membrane. This acts as an artificial kidney to transport toxins (diffusion) and excess water (ultrafiltration) from the blood into a separate fluid (dialysate) circuit. During this process, the extracorporeal blood circuit is monitored for venous and arterial blood pressures, and for the presence of air and blood. In the dialysate circuit, the dialysate concentrates are mixed with purified water, heated, degassed, and delivered to the dialyzer. Balancing chambers control the incoming flow and outgoing flow of the dialysate fluid during ultrafiltration.

§ 876.5860 High permeability hemodialysis system.
(a)
Identification. A high permeability hemodialysis system is a device intended for use as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure, fluid overload, or toxemic conditions by performing such therapies as hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemoconcentration, and hemodiafiltration. Using a hemodialyzer with a semipermeable membrane that is more permeable to water than the semipermeable membrane of the conventional hemodialysis system (§ 876.5820), the high permeability hemodialysis system removes toxins or excess fluid from the patient's blood using the principles of convection (via a high ultrafiltration rate) and/or diffusion (via a concentration gradient in dialysate). During treatment, blood is circulated from the patient through the hemodialyzer's blood compartment, while the dialysate solution flows countercurrent through the dialysate compartment. In this process, toxins and/or fluid are transferred across the membrane from the blood to the dialysate compartment. The hemodialysis delivery machine controls and monitors the parameters related to this processing, including the rate at which blood and dialysate are pumped through the system, and the rate at which fluid is removed from the patient. The high permeability hemodialysis system consists of the following devices:(1) The hemodialyzer consists of a semipermeable membrane with an in vitro ultrafiltration coefficient (K
uf ) greater than 8 milliliters per hour per conventional millimeter of mercury, as measured with bovine or expired human blood, and is used with either an automated ultrafiltration controller or anther method of ultrafiltration control to prevent fluid imbalance.(2) The hemodialysis delivery machine is similar to the extracorporeal blood system and dialysate delivery system of the hemodialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5820), with the addition of an ultrafiltration controller and mechanisms that monitor and/or control such parameters as fluid balance, dialysate composition, and patient treatment parameters (e.g., blood pressure, hematocrit, urea, etc.).
(3) The high permeability hemodialysis system accessories include, but are not limited to, tubing lines and various treatment related monitors (e.g., dialysate pH, blood pressure, hematocrit, and blood recirculation monitors).
(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are FDA's:(1) “Use of International Standard ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Device—Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ”
