The summary describes a sterilization system with preprogrammed cycles based on device type and dimensions, without mentioning any adaptive learning or data-driven decision-making processes characteristic of AI/ML.
No
This device is a sterilizer intended for processing medical devices, not for diagnosing, treating, or preventing disease in patients.
No
This device is a sterilizer, intended for the terminal sterilization of medical devices, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizer" and describes physical components and processes involving temperature, pressure, and sterilant. This indicates a hardware device, not software only.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the systems are for the "terminal sterilization of properly prepared (cleaned, rinsed and dried) medical devices in Healthcare Facilities." This is a process applied to medical devices themselves, not a test performed on biological samples to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The device description reinforces this by stating they are "vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizers intended for use in the terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed and dried metal and nonmetal medical devices used in healthcare facilities."
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health
- Using reagents or assays to detect specific substances
The device's function is to sterilize medical instruments, which is a process related to infection control and preparing devices for use on patients, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The V-PRO 1, V-PRO 1 Plus and V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization Systems using VAPROX HC Sterilant are intended for use in the terminal sterilization of properly prepared (cleaned, rinsed and dried) medical devices in Healthcare Facilities. The preprogrammed sterilization cycles operate at low pressure and temperature, suitable for processing medical devices.
Each Cycle can sterilize non-luments with diffusion-restricted spaces such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors. Only stainless steel or titanium diffusion-restricted spaces should be processed in the Non Lumen Cycle.
The V-PRO 1 Plus and V-PRO maX Sterilizers' Non Lumen Cycle can sterilize: ‡ Non-lumened instruments including non-lumened general medical instruments, non-lumened rigid, semi-rigid and flexible endoscopes.

3. Description of Device
The V-PRO 1, V-PRO 1 Plus, V-PRO maX and V-PRO 60 Low Temperature Sterilization Systems, using VAPROX® HC Sterilant, are vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizers intended for use in the terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed and dried metal and nonmetal medical devices used in healthcare facilities. The Sterilizers use VAPROX® HC Sterilant to sterilize the intended devices through exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP). The packaged sterilized devices are ready for use at the completion of the cycle; no cool down or aeration period is required following completion of the cycle.
The V-PRO 1, V-PRO 1 Plus, and the V-PRO maX and V-PRO 60 Low Temperature Sterilization Systems are programmed to enact one (the Lumen Cycle), two (the Lumen Cycle and the Non Lumen Cycle) or three (the Lumen Cycle, the Non Lumen Cycle and the Flexible Cycles, respectively.
