Intended Use
The Lucy Breast Pump is a powered breast pump to be used by lactating women to express and collect milk from their breasts. The Lucy Breast Pump is intended for a single user.
Device Description
The Lucy Breast Pump (Lucy) is a cordless, software-controlled, battery powered breast pump that is intended for use by lactating women to express and collect breast milk. The Lucy Breast Pump is intended for a single user and provided as a non-sterile device. The user has the option to pump from one breast (single pumping) or two breasts simultaneously (double pumping). The fully assembled Lucy Breast Pump, consisting of the Flange, Pump Body, Pump Diaphragm, and Container Assembly, is designed to work in the user's nursing bra that allows it to be used handsfree. The Lucy Breast Pump provides two operational modes (stimulation and expression), with three vacuum/cycle levels in stimulation mode and four vacuum/cycle levels in expression mode. Switching between modes and changing the levels within each mode is done through the physical interface on the pump.

No
The document describes a standard breast pump with software control for modes and levels, but there is no mention of AI or ML capabilities, training data, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms.

No
A breast pump is a device that helps lactating women express milk, which is a supportive function rather than directly treating or diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device is a breast pump, not a diagnostic tool. Its purpose is to express and collect milk, not to identify or assess medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components (Flange, Pump Body, Pump Diaphragm, Container Assembly) and mentions physical interfaces for control, indicating it is a hardware device with software control, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "express and collect milk from their breasts." This is a physical process involving the body, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical pump designed to extract fluid from the body. It doesn't mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: IVD devices are used to diagnose diseases or conditions, monitor treatments, or screen for health issues by analyzing samples like blood, urine, or tissue. The Lucy Breast Pump has no such diagnostic function.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the breasts, which is where the physical action of pumping occurs, not where a diagnostic sample is typically collected for analysis.

In summary, the Lucy Breast Pump is a medical device used for a therapeutic/supportive purpose (collecting breast milk), not for in vitro diagnostic testing.
