The device description and intended use focus on a physical, moldable cushion for patient stabilization, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No
The device provides stable support and positioning for patients during radiation therapy, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition. Its purpose is to immobilize patients for treatment, not to be a therapeutic intervention itself.
No
The device is described as a moldable stabilization cushion used for patient positioning and immobilization during radiation therapy. It does not perform any diagnostic function such as detecting, diagnosing, or monitoring a disease or condition. Its purpose is purely supportive and therapeutic.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical product (cushion, fabric, resins, beads, vent tube) that is molded and hardens, indicating it is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, the CushionCast™ Moldable Cushion is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The CushionCast™ is a physical device used to position and stabilize a patient's head during radiation therapy. It does not interact with or analyze any biological samples.
- The intended use is for patient positioning and support. The description clearly states its purpose is for "stable support and positioning of patients undergoing radiation therapy or other treatment." This is a physical support function, not a diagnostic one.
- The device description focuses on its physical properties and molding process. The details about the resins, beads, and curing process relate to its function as a moldable cushion, not as a diagnostic tool.
Therefore, the CushionCast™ falls under the category of a medical device used for patient support and positioning, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The CushionCast™ is moldable stabilization cushions for radiation therapy patients. This product targets customers who require stabilization cushions for patients who are undergoing radiation therapy. The CushionCast™ is needed in order to mold to the shape of the patient's head to immobilize any movement during radiation therapy.
The cushion is constructed with a biocompatible and water resistant fabric and internal components, which include low viscosity casting resins that are sealed in pouches and polystyrene beads as filler material. To activate the cushion, the pouches are popped, and the internal components are mixed for 2 minutes. The plug inserted in the vent tube is removed prior to the molding process. The vent tube serves to expel excess air to allow for an accurate mold. The mixture of the Part A and Part B liquid plastics should yield a hardened mold. The fully cured mold provides a dimensionally stable cushion required by radiotherapy systems.

Device Description
The CushionCast™ is moldable stabilization cushions for radiation therapy patients. This product targets customers who require stabilization cushions for patients who are undergoing radiation therapy. The CushionCast™ is needed in order to mold to the shape of the patient's head to immobilize any movement during radiation therapy.

the internal components are mixed for 2 minutes. The plug inserted in the vent tube is removed prior to the molding process. The vent tube serves to expel excess air to allow for an accurate mold. The mixture of the Part A and Part B liquid plastics should yield a hardened mold. The fully cured mold provides a dimensionally stable cushion required by radiotherapy systems.
Intended Use of the Device
The CushionCast™ Moldable Cushions are designed for the positioning and repositioning of patients receiving radiation therapy or other treatment. The moldable cushion is to be used by trained medical professionals for stable support and positioning of patients undergoing a radiation therapy or other treatment in a clinic or hospital setting.
Patient Population
The device is intended for use in patients undergoing external-beam radiation therapy or other teatment.
Environment of Use
The device is intended for use by a trained healthcare professional in a healthcare facility.
Claim of Substantial Equivalence
This product is substantially equivalent to existing patient positioning cushions currently being marketed as accessories to radiation therapy systems.
The equivalent device is Klarity Mold Cushion (AccuCushion) marketed by Klarity (K132124).
The Klarity Mold Cushions has an inner component of small polystyrene spheres. These are surrounded by a 1/16" layer of polycaprolactone thermoplastic that softens and is moldable at 150°F. To use the Klarity Mold cushion, a therapist must first place the cushion in an oven or in a hot water bath to heat it to about 150 F. At this temperature the cushion becomes moldable by hand and will remain moldable for about 5 to 8 minutes as it cools to room temperature.
The CushionCast™ is constructed with a biocompatible and water resistant fabric shell and internal components, which include small polystyrene beads and casting resins that are sealed in pouches. The mixture of Part A and Part B casting resins yields a durable mold with a hardening time approximately between 5 to 7 minutes after mixing. Fully cured molds provide a dimensionally stable cushion.

Like the Klarity Mold cushion, IZI CushionCast™ hardens to create a firm support cushion, conforming to and stabilizing the patient. The cushions also conform to the structure underneath the cushion, providing a means to specifically locate a patient on a treatment table or other support device.
Based on the similarity of design and construction of the CushionCast™ and the Klarity Mold Cushions, it is reasonable to expect that these devices will have similar properties and should function in a substantially equivalent fashion. Both devices are intended for use in positioning and re-positioning patients during radiation therapy procedures and are employed in clinically similar fashions.
A design verification study was conducted to ensure that the dimensional stability of the CushionCast™ meets necessary requirements. The study also indicated that the CushionCast™ performs equivalently to the Klarity Mold Cushions. It is reasonable to conclude that the CushionCast™ and Klarity Mold Cushion are substantially equivalent with respect to use, safety, and effectiveness.
