Intended Use
United Urologics Intermittent Catheter is intended to be used as a urinary incontinence device designed to drain urine from the bladder.
Device Description
The United Urologics Intermittent Catheter is a sterile, single use, disposable, urinary incontinence device designed to drain urine from the bladder. The device is manufactured of a flexible tube with a smooth radius, atraumatic tip to facilitate introduction into the urethra. The catheter is manufactured with drainage holes in the side of the tubing closest to the tipped end of the catheter in order to allow drainage of urine from the bladder through the central lumen of the catheter tube. The catheter may be provided with a funnel bonded to the end of the catheter tube opposite the tipped end. During use, the funnel or flared end of the catheter may be attached to a universal adapter to facilitate drainage of the urine into a standard urinary collection bag (the collection bag and universal adapter are not part of this device). The device may be used by the patient or caregiver in a healthcare facility, hospital, and home or public restroom facilitate drainage of urine from the bladder.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics, biocompatibility, and sterilization of a simple intermittent catheter, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used to drain urine from the bladder for individuals with urinary incontinence, which is a therapeutic function addressing a medical condition.

No

This device is a urinary incontinence device designed to drain urine, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical, sterile, single-use, disposable catheter made of a flexible tube with drainage holes and a funnel, which is a hardware medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "drain urine from the bladder" as a "urinary incontinence device." This is a direct therapeutic or management function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical device (flexible tube, tip, drainage holes) designed for insertion into the body to facilitate drainage. This aligns with a medical device used for treatment or management, not for analyzing samples outside the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like urine itself for diagnostic markers), reagents, or any process related to determining a medical condition or state.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on functionality (draining urine), biocompatibility (interaction with the body), and sterilization, which are typical for medical devices used in or on the body, not for IVDs.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not perform such a function.
