No.
The devices described are primarily for obtaining tissue samples for diagnostic purposes (biopsy), not for direct treatment or therapy. While the diagnosis obtained from these devices might lead to therapeutic interventions, the devices themselves are not therapeutic.
Yes
The device, described as Möller Medical Biopsy Needles and Systems, is used to obtain core samples and aspiration for biopsy. The text explicitly states, "When used for breast biopsy, the product is for diagnosis only." Biopsies are procedures to collect tissue for diagnostic purposes, in this case, to determine the nature of a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines various physical components like needles, biopsy guns, and systems, indicating it is a hardware medical device. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use of these devices is to obtain tissue samples (core samples and aspiration) from various parts of the body (bone, bone marrow, soft tissue). This is a procedure performed on the patient to collect a specimen.
- IVD Definition: An IVD device is defined as a medical device that is used to perform tests on specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
- Function: These devices are tools for collecting the specimen. The diagnostic testing would be performed on the collected specimen using separate IVD devices or laboratory procedures.
Therefore, the Möller Medical Biopsy Needles and Systems are devices used for specimen collection, which is a step before any potential in vitro diagnostic testing is performed on the collected sample. They are not used to perform the diagnostic test itself.

Device Description
Möller Medical Blue RBG
The Möller Medical Blue RBG is a re-usable biopsy gun to be used with corresponding needles to obtain core samples from soft tissue. It is a re-usable device, which has to be reprocessed. The biopsy needles used with this device are disposable products.
The Möller Medical Blue RBG is intended to be used with the DNG-1020 and the DNG-2020 needles.
The following steps are needed to prepare for the puncture. The first step is to open the cover of the Möller Medical Blue.
Generally spoken the insertion of biopsy needles into the re-usable biopsy gun is dependent from the biopsy needle. It is important that the plastic hubs of the compatible needles are positioned carefully onto the locking pins.
After needle insertion into the device the cover of the decocked re-usable biopsy gun shall be closed and the needle's protective sheath can be removed. By pulling the lever twice the device is ready for use and can be approached to the biopsy site - as a last step before triggering the safety lock has to switch from "locked" to "unlocked". Then introduce the needle under imaging control through the incision until the needle point is proximal to the area to be biopsied. When the position is confirmed the energized Möller Medical Blue RBG biopsy instrument hast to be triggered. Therefor the trigger button has to be depressed to cause both the stylet and cannula to automatically advance. Then the instrument has to be removed from the patient and the core tissue sample has to be exposed by pulling back the lever once from the side-notch. If additional biopsies are not being taken the used needle has to be removed from the decocked biopsy qun and discarded.
Bone Marrow Biopsy System (BOW-1060). Bone Marrow Aspiration Biopsy (BOW-1070) and Bone Biopsy Needles (BOY-1080):
The purpose of the Bone Marrow Biopsy System, Bone Marrow Aspiration Biopsy and Bone Biopsy Needles is the harvesting of bone and bone marrow specimens. Access to the bone or bone marrow is achieved manually under the support of the devices cutting edge. Harvesting of bone or bone marrow specimens is accomplished manually and if required by aspirating which a syringe which is adapted to the Luer-Lock connector located at the handle of the cannula. Specimens are collected within the outer cannula which finally will be withdrawn from the patient. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging guidance such as CT.
Fine Needle Biopsy (FNB-xxxx):
The Fine Needle Biopsy is used for the percutaneous withdrawal of mainly cytological evidence of soft tissue for example from pleura cavity and associated organs, abdominal cavity and associated organs. For aspiration a Luer-Lock adapter is attached on the top of the Needle to connect a syringe. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging guidance such as Ultrasound.
Disposable Needles for Biopsy Gun (DNG-1010, -1020, -1030, -1040):
The Disposable Needles for Biopsy Gun are used for obtaining core biopsies of various tissues like lung, kidney, liver, prostate, abdominal soft tissue masses and breast. The needles are used in combination with different automatic biopsy guns and can be used with a corresponding coaxial needle for multiple sampling. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging guidance such as Ultrasound or CT.
Full-sCore® Biopsy Needle (DNG-2020):
The full-sCore® Biopsy Needle is used for biopsies of soft tissue in combination with the Möller Medical Blue. These biopsy needles are composed of a double-lumen cannula tube with bevelled edge tip cut; a trokar stylet is located inside the larger lumen. The stylet also has a polished tip. The smaller lumen contains a lengthwise spade, which works as a cutting mechanisms for the tissue collected inside the needle.

ABG can be used with a corresponding coaxial needle for multiple sampling. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging guidance such as Ultrasound or CT.
Coaxial Needles (COX-xxx):
If several biopsy specimens have to be taken from the same target area, the biopsies can be performed by means of several direct punctures or by using the coaxial technique. When performing direct punctures each and every time the biopsy needle or system has to be interseted into the patient. If a quiding needle is used together with the biopsy needle or system, this is known as coaxial approach. With this technique, only a single puncture is necessary. The quiding needle, the Coaxial Needle, is placed towards the suspicious area. Once the the coaxial needle is in place several biopsies can be performed by the biopsy needle or systems using the COX-xxxx as a guiding needle resp. as an introducer needle. It should be noted, that the guiding needle (COX) has to have a larger total diameter than the corresbonding biopsy needle or system and has to be shorter in length. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging guidance such as Ultrasound or CT.
Manual Cut Biopsy (MBY-xxxx):
The Manual Cut Biopsy needle is a manual biopsy needle for the evidence of histological tissue specimen. As with ABG, SBG and DNG the tru-cut technique is used in MBY. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging quidance such as Ultrasound or CT.

Automatic Biopsy Gun (ABG-xxxx):
The intended purpose of the disposable Automatic Biopsy Gun of Möller Medical is to obtain core samples for valuable histological evidence from soft tissue such as liver, kidney. prostate, breast, lung and various soft tissue lesions. ABG can be used with a corresponding coaxial needle for multiple sampling. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging guidance such as Ultrasound or CT.
Coaxial Needles (COX-xxx):
If several biopsy specimens have to be taken from the same target area, the biopsies can be performed by means of several direct punctures or by using the coaxial technique. When performing direct punctures each and every time the biopsy needle or system has to be interseted into the patient. If a quiding needle is used together with the biopsy needle or system, this is known as coaxial approach. With this technique, only a single puncture is necessary. The quiding needle, the Coaxial Needle, is placed towards the suspicious area. Once the the coaxial needle is in place several biopsies can be performed by the biopsy needle or systems using the COX-xxxx as a guiding needle resp. as an introducer needle. It should be noted, that the guiding needle (COX) has to have a larger total diameter than the corresbonding biopsy needle or system and has to be shorter in length. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging guidance such as Ultrasound or CT.
Manual Cut Biopsy (MBY-xxxx):
The Manual Cut Biopsy needle is a manual biopsy needle for the evidence of histological tissue specimen. As with ABG, SBG and DNG the tru-cut technique is used in MBY. The needle has to be inserted by a qualified physician under imaging quidance such as Ultrasound or CT.

When used for breast biopsy, the product is for diagnosis only. The extent of histological abnormality cannot be reliably determined from its mammographic appearance. Therefore, the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histological abnormality; e.g., malignancy. When the sampled abnormality is not histologically benign, it is essential that the tissue margins be examined for completeness of removal of using standard surgical procedures.
6. Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Devices
The BiopC Portfolio is working equivalently to the predicate devices. The principles of biopsy are exactly the same.
With exception of the Möller Medical Blue RBG Biopsy gun the products are for single-use like the appropriate predicate devices.
The BiopC Portfolio and its predicate devices are sold sterile with exception of the Möller Medical Blue RBG which is suitable for reprocessing like the appropriate predicate device.
The indication for use of the BiopC Portfolio is comparable with the indication for use of the predicate devices.
7. Performance Data
The BiopC Portfolio has the same indication for use and performance as the predicate devices. In addition, the BiopC Portfolio is made from the same materials with patient contact as the predicate devices. Because of this, no new safety or effectiveness are introduces over the predicate devices. Please refer to Table 2 for the list of bench tests - there you find a list of all bench tests that have been performed. Other products of the BiopC Portfolio can be subordinated to the bench tests of the single products.
The test series exhibits a very wide range of performance tests and all necessary and required tests for the BiopC Portfolio were appropriate performed and all tests passed according to the predetermined pass/fail criteria.
