The device description and intended use describe a chemical solution (mouth rinse) and do not mention any computational or algorithmic components, let alone AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".
Yes
Caphosol Dispersible is indicated for the treatment of mucositis and the amelioration of pain associated with dryness of the oral mucosa, which are therapeutic claims.
No
The device, Caphosol Dispersible, is a mouth rinse used for dryness of the mouth and throat and as an adjunct to oral care for mucositis. Its purpose is to provide relief and replace ionic/pH balance, not to diagnose any conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a tablet to be dissolved in water, indicating a physical product, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for treating dryness of the mouth and throat and as an adjunct to oral care for mucositis. These are conditions affecting the patient directly, not for examining specimens from the body to provide diagnostic information.
- Device Description: Caphosol is described as a mouth rinse used as artificial saliva. This is a therapeutic or supportive device, not a diagnostic one.
- Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for any disease or condition by analyzing samples from the body.
- No Mention of Specimen Analysis: The description does not involve the analysis of blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological specimen.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit that description.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Caphosol Dispersible is indicated for dryness of the mouth and throat (hyposalivation, xerostomia), regardless of the cause and regardless of whether the condition is temporary or permanent. Caphosol Dispersible is also indicated as an adjunct to standard oral care in the treatment of the mucositis that may be caused by radiation or high dose chemotherapy. Relief of dryness of the oral mucosa in these conditions is associated with amelioration of pain.

Indication for Use Differences:
The indication for use statement of the predicate device is more specific than the indication for use statement of the subject device. The differences do not raise concerns as the intended use is the same.
Technology Differences:
The CAPHOSOL® Artificial Saliva Tablets and Caphosol® Liguid Artificial Saliva active chemical components are identical, however the CAPHOSOL® Artificial Saliva Tablets formulation includes a diluent and effervescent agents, and does not contain water. The available physical form of the subject device is a dry tablet, whereas the predicate device is composed of two ampules containing different solutions to be mixed prior to use. The
6
excipients in the subject device formulation result in effervescence and complete dissolution of the table to obtain the final solution prepared after dissolution of a tablet or after mixing 2 ampules are identical in quantity of the active ingredients (Calcium and Phosphate).
The CAPHOSOL® Artificial Saliva Tablets is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices with regard to operating principle and function.
Performance Testing:
Biocompatibility assessment conducted in accordance with ISO - 10993-1 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a Risk Management Process.
Non-Clinical and Clinical Studies:
Clinical performance testing was not conducted for the subject device.
A literature search has not shown any clinically significant adverse effects being reported.
Conclusion:
Based on the similarities in intended use, technology, and performance testing, the CAPHOSOL Artificial Saliva Effervescent Tablets is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
