More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies indicate a manually operated syringe with no mention of AI/ML capabilities or data-driven performance metrics.

No
This device is a syringe, which is used for injecting or withdrawing fluids (like medication) but does not have a direct therapeutic effect on the body itself.

No

The device is described as a "sterile device consisting of a calibrated barrel with plunger and a fixed needle at the distal end intended to be used for injection/withdrawal of fluids/gas ... to/from a medical device or the body." This functionality is for therapeutic or procedural purposes (injecting or withdrawing fluids), not for identifying a disease or condition. The "Intended Use" also states it is "to inject fluids into or withdraw fluids from the body," which is a treatment or procedural action.

No

The device description clearly states it is a sterile device made of stainless steel, plastic, and silicone materials, and is manually operated, indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "inject fluids into or withdraw fluids from the body." This describes a direct interaction with the patient's body for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes in vivo (within the living organism).
  • Device Description: The description details a syringe with a needle, designed for injecting or withdrawing fluids/gas. This is a physical tool for manipulating substances within or from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the living organism) to provide information about a physiological state, health, disease, or congenital abnormality. The provided description does not mention any such use or interaction with patient specimens outside the body.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical and biological properties of the syringe and needle (sterility, biocompatibility, mechanical strength, etc.), not on the analytical performance of testing patient specimens.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for direct patient care, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
