Intended Use
The Vis-U-All Low Temperature Sterilization Pouches/Tubing are sterilization containment pouches for use by health care providers to enclose: - medical devices in a single or double pouch configuration ● - trays* containing medical devices in a single or double pouch configuration - . small items requiring surface sterilization in a single pouch configuration within a tray* to be sterilized in the Lumen. Non Lumen and Flexible Cycles of the V-PRO Low Temperature Sterilization Systems. The pouches maintain the sterility of the enclosed devices until used. When used to enclose medical devices, the pouches are intended to contain the devices in such a manner as to leave a minimum of one inch between the devices and seal on all sides. When used to enclose a tray, the tray must fit loosely within the pouch.
Device Description
The proposed Vis-U-All Low Temperature Sterilization Pouch/Tubing is identical to the predicate and is a Tyvek/plastic film sterilization containment pouch designed for devices to be sterilized by the health care provider in V-PRO Low Temperature Sterilization Systems. As is the predicate, the proposed device is available as a self seal pouch, a heat seal pouch, or heat seal tubing. The purpose of this submission is to add claims for: use in the V-PRO maX Flexible cycle; pouching of sterilization trays and for sterilization of pouched items within a sterilization tray.
More Information

No
The device is a sterilization pouch, a passive containment product, and the summary contains no mention of AI or ML.

No

The device is a sterilization containment pouch, not a device used for treating medical conditions.

No

The device is a sterilization containment pouch used to maintain the sterility of enclosed medical devices until use, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device is a physical sterilization pouch/tubing made of Tyvek/plastic film, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the pouches are for "sterilization containment" of medical devices and trays. This is a physical containment function for sterilization processes, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a "sterilization containment pouch."
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

Therefore, the Vis-U-All Low Temperature Sterilization Pouches/Tubing are classified as a medical device used in the sterilization process, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
