No
The device is a chemical indicator that changes color based on exposure to sterilization processes, which is a purely chemical reaction and does not involve AI/ML.
No.
This device is a chemical indicator used to verify the sterilization process, not to treat or directly affect a patient's health condition.
No
This device is a chemical indicator designed to distinguish between processed and unprocessed units in sterilization cycles by changing color. It does not diagnose medical conditions or diseases.
No
The device description explicitly states the device is composed of physical components: Substrate and Indicator Ink (and Adhesive and Backing Paper for the PI version). This indicates it is a physical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization process indicator." Its purpose is to indicate whether a sterilization process has occurred by changing color. It is used within packs or affixed to biological indicator vials that are being sterilized.
- Mechanism: The device works through a visible color change in response to exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide during a sterilization cycle. This is a chemical reaction, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: IVD devices are designed to perform tests on biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions. This device does not interact with or analyze any biological samples.
- Regulatory Standard: The performance testing references ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-1:2014, which is a standard for sterilization indicators, not IVD devices.
In summary, the Celerity™ HP Chemical Indicator is a sterilization process indicator, not a device used for in vitro diagnostic testing of biological samples.

Dear Gregory Land:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal
9
statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.html; good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
For comprehensive regulatory information about mediation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/) and CDRH Learn (http://www.fda.gov/Training/CDRHLearn).
