No
The summary describes a steam sterilizer with predefined cycles and validation based on established standards. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any features that would suggest the use of such technologies.

No
This device is a steam sterilizer designed to sterilize medical instruments and materials, not for direct therapeutic treatment of patients.

No

The device is a steam sterilizer, not a diagnostic device. Its purpose is to sterilize materials, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly indicates it is a physical steam sterilizer with various models and configurations, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the sterilization of materials used in healthcare facilities. This is a process applied to medical devices and materials, not a test performed on biological samples to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device is a steam sterilizer with various cycles for sterilization. This aligns with the function of sterilizing equipment, not performing diagnostic tests.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring analytes
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions.

The device is clearly designed for the sterilization of medical instruments and materials, which falls under the category of medical devices used in healthcare settings, but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Belimed validates its sterilization cycles by recommended practices, standards and quidelines developed by various independent organizations such as the Association for Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). Prior to release, Belimed Steam Sterilizer MST-H were validated to meet the requirements of ANSI/AAMI ST8:2013.

The results of the Belimed Steam Sterilizer MST-H verification studies demonstrate that the sterilizer performs as intended and is summarized as follows:

  • The Prevac cycle where the maximum tray capacity is changing to 25 lbs. was qualified according to AAMI ST8:2013 section 5.5.4. This cycle demonstrated a sterility assurance level of at least 10-6 through achievement of a time-at-temperature sufficient to produce an F0 of at least 12 minutes by half cycle, moisture retention of less than 20% increase in pre-sterilization weight of the towel, and exhibited no wet spots on the outer wrapper.
  • The Immediate Use Gravity cycle where the maximum tray capacity is changing from 17 lbs. to 25 lbs. was qualified according to AAMI ST8:2013 section 5.5.5.1.

CLINICAL DATA:

No clinical data is required for this device classification submission.

SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE TESTING:

Belimed validates its sterilization cycles by recommended practices, standards and quidelines developed by various independent organizations such as the Association for Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). Prior to release, Belimed Steam Sterilizer MST-H were validated to meet the requirements of ANSI/AAMI ST8:2013.

The results of the Belimed Steam Sterilizer MST-H verification studies demonstrate that the sterilizer performs as intended and is summarized as follows:

  • The Prevac cycle where the maximum tray capacity is changing to 25 lbs. was qualified according to AAMI ST8:2013 section 5.5.4. This cycle demonstrated a sterility assurance level of at least 10° through achievement of a time-at-temperature sufficient to produce an F0 of at least 12 minutes by half cycle, moisture retention of less than 20% increase in pre-sterilization weight of the towel, and exhibited no wet spots on the outer wrapper.
  • The Immediate Use Gravity cycle where the maximum tray capacity is changing from 17 lbs. to 25 lbs. was qualified according to AAMI ST8:2013 section 5.5.5.1.

STANDARDS USED:

Belimed's sterilizers, including the Belimed Steam Sterilizer MST-H, models 9-6-12, and 9-6-18, have been designed and constructed to meet the safety and performance requirements of various national safety codes and standards. The Belimed Steam Sterilizer MST-H complies with the following safety standards:

    1. ANSI/AAMI ST8:2013
    1. ANSI/AAMI ST79:2010+A1:2010
    1. IEC EN 62304:2006

CONCLUSION

The Belimed Steam Sterilizer MST-H Top 5000 is substantially equivalent device to that of the predicate device (K021223).

The nonclinical tests and accompanying in this premarket notification demonstrate that this device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well or better than the predicate device series (K021223).
