More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies indicate a standard mechanical syringe with no mention of AI/ML capabilities or related data/training sets.

No.
A therapeutic device is one that treats a disease or condition. This device is used to deliver a substance (insulin) that treats a disease, but the device itself does not provide therapy.

No

The device is an insulin syringe used for the subcutaneous injection of insulin, which is a therapeutic function rather than a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a plastic syringe with a barrel, plunger rod, and needle/hub assembly, which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "subcutaneous injection of U-100 insulins." This describes a device used to administer a substance directly into the body, not to perform tests on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a syringe, a tool for injection, not a device for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information. The device's function is purely mechanical for drug delivery.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This syringe does not fit that description.
