No
The document mentions "guided programming" and "automate the programming of infusion parameters" when integrated with an EMR, but this describes automation and integration, not necessarily AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like neural networks, deep learning, or training data.

Yes
The device is intended for the controlled administration of various fluids, including pharmaceutical drugs, directly into patients through different routes like intravenous, arterial, enteral, and subcutaneous. This direct administration of substances for treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of disease aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The Novum IQ Syringe Pump is intended for the controlled administration of fluids, such as pharmaceutical drugs, parenteral nutrition, and blood products. It is a delivery device (infusion pump), not a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "software controlled, electromechanical syringe pump" and details hardware components like a "motorized pumping mechanism," "stepper motor," "lead screw," and "barrel clamp." It also mentions operating on AC power with a rechargeable battery.

Based on the provided information, the Novum IQ Syringe Pump is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for the "controlled administration of fluids" into a patient through various routes (intravenous, arterial, enteral, subcutaneous). This is a direct therapeutic or supportive function performed on the patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical pump that physically delivers fluids from a syringe into the patient.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: An IVD device is intended for use in vitro (outside the body) for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Novum IQ Syringe Pump does not perform any such examination of specimens.

The device is a medical device, specifically an infusion pump, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
