No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and material properties of a simple fluid transfer device, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as a "Decanting Device" intended for "aseptic dispensing of solutions from IV containers" and "transferring IV fluids/medication." It facilitates the creation of a sterile fluid path to "ensure an aseptic transfer or removal of fluids/medication." This function is for preparing or handling medications, not for directly treating a patient's medical condition.

No

The device is described as a "Mini Transfer Device" or "Vial Transfer Device" and its intended use is for "aseptic dispensing of solutions from IV containers" or "transferring IV fluids/medication." This function does not involve diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like spikes, caps, needles, and sticks, and the performance studies focus on physical characteristics and biocompatibility, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "aseptic dispensing of solutions from IV containers" and "transferring IV fluids/medication from a vial to an IV fluid administration device" or "from a bag to an IV fluid administration device." This describes a device used for the physical manipulation and transfer of substances within the body or for administration into the body, not for testing samples outside the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components (spike, cap, needle tip, stick) and their function in creating a sterile fluid path for transfer. This aligns with a device used for fluid handling in a clinical setting, not for diagnostic testing.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information. The device's function is purely mechanical for fluid transfer.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on physical characteristics (dimension, flow, sealing, strength), sterility, particulate matter, and biocompatibility. These are relevant to a medical device used for fluid administration, not an IVD which would typically involve performance metrics related to analytical accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, etc.

In summary, the device's purpose is to facilitate the safe and sterile transfer of fluids for administration, which falls under the category of a medical device used in patient care, not an in vitro diagnostic device used for testing samples to diagnose conditions.
