The document describes a PCR-based assay for detecting viral DNA and explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found".
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) PCR primer and probe set intended for the qualitative detection of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA, used for diagnosis and not for direct treatment or therapy.
Yes
This device is for the "qualitative presumptive detection of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA" and its results "must be used in conjunction with other diagnostic assays and clinical observations to diagnose Orthopoxvirus infection." The purpose of detecting the DNA is to aid in diagnosis, even if it's not the sole determinant.
No
The device is a primer and probe set for a PCR assay, which are physical reagents used in a laboratory test, not software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended for the in vitro qualitative presumptive detection of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA. "In vitro" means "in glass" or "outside the body," which is a key characteristic of IVDs.
- Specimen Type: The assay is designed to test human pustular rash specimens and viral cell culture lysates, which are biological samples taken from the human body.
- Purpose: The purpose is to identify the presence of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA, which is a diagnostic step in determining if a patient has an Orthopoxvirus infection.
The description clearly aligns with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Non-variola Orthopoxvirus Real-time PCR Primer and Probe Set is intended for the in vitro qualitative presumptive detection of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA extracted from human pustular rash specimens and viral cell culture lysates submitted to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention designated laboratory. The assay detects nonvariola Orthopoxvirus DNA, including vaccinia, cowpox, monkeypox and ectromelia viruses at varying concentrations. This assay does not differentiate vaccinia virus or monkeypox virus from other orthopoxviruses detected by this assay and does not detect variola virus. Refer to the CDC algorithm, Acute, Generalized Vesicular or Pustular Rash Illness Testing Protocol in the United States for recommended testing and evaluation algorithms for patients presenting with acute, generalized pustular or vesicular rash illness.
Results of this assay are for the identification of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA. These results must be used in conjunction with other diagnostic assays and clinical observations to diagnose Orthopoxvirus infection. The assay should only be used to test specimens with low/moderate risk of smallpox exists, viral culture should not be attempted. Negative results obtained with this device do not prection virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions.
Use is limited to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention designated laboratories.

Background
Variola virus, a member of the Orthopoxvirus genus, is the causative agent of smallpox and was certified eradicated in 1980 by the World Health Organization. At that time, smallpox vaccinations were ceased worldwide as a result. However, in recent years, concerns over the potential use of Variola virus as a biological weapon led the United States to resume smallpox vaccinations on a limited basis. Since the smallpox vaccine contains live Vaccinia virus, it is possible for vaccine recipients and/or their close contacts to develop adverse reactions to the vaccine including the emergence of pustules on the skin.
The Laboratory Response Network (LRN) is part of a national bioterrorism preparedness initiative created to ensure an effective laboratory response to biological threats by helping to improve the nation's public health laboratory infrastructure. Member laboratories must meet specific membership requirements and pass rigorous proficiency tests demonstrating their ability to accurately identify agents of concern. One of the major goals is the development and validation of rapid and specific assays for detection of

biothreat agents and emerging infectious diseases. Accordingly, scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have developed several realtime PCR based assays to detect non-variola Orthopoxvirus and other potential biothreat agents to meet the need for rapid detection.
The Non-variola Orthopoxvirus Real-time PCR Primer and Probe Set was developed for use in conjunction with clinical observations and other tests as described in the CDC algorithm, Acute, Generalized Vesicular or Pustular Rash Illness Testing Protocol in the United States. The assay is designed to aid in the identification of the causative aqent of a pustular or vesicular rash illness and to help rule out the presence of Variola virus in patients presenting with pustular rash illness.
This assay detects most commonly known human pathogenic Orthopoxyiruses (i.e.., Vaccinia, Cowpox, and Monkeypox viruses) but does not detect Variola virus, the causative agent of smallpox. Vaccinia virus infection in the United States usually occurs in conjunction with smallpox vaccination or contact with a smallpox vaccine recipient. Monkeypox and Cowpox viruses are enzootic to locations outside the United States, with the exception of the 2003 domestic monkeypox outbreak associated with imported African rodents.
As of August 22, 2022, there are 15,433 cases of monkeypoxvirus/nonvariola orthopoxvirus in the United States. As case counts continue to rise in the United States where monkeypox is not endemic, there is an urgent need to prepare for larger scale diagnostic testing for orthopoxviruses.
Device Description

Intended Use
The Non-variola Orthopoxvirus Real-time PCR Primer and Probe Set is intended for the in vitro qualitative presumptive detection of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA extracted from human pustular or vesicular rash specimens and viral cell culture lysates submitted to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention designated laboratory. The assay detects non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA, including Vaccinia, Cowpox, Monkeypox and Ectromelia viruses at varying concentrations. This assay does not differentiate Vaccinia virus or Monkeypox virus from other Orthopoxviruses detected by this assay and does not detect Variola virus. Refer to the CDC algorithm, Acute, Generalized Vesicular or Pustular Rash Illness Testing Protocol in the United States for recommended testing and evaluation algorithms for patients presenting with acute, generalized pustular or vesicular rash illness.
Results of this assay are for the presumptive identification of non-variola Orthopoxvirus DNA. These results must be used in conjunction with other diagnostic assays and clinical observations to diagnose Orthopoxvirus infection. The assay should only be used to test specimens with low/moderate risk of smallpox. If a high risk of smallpox exists, viral culture should not be attempted. Negative results obtained with this device do not preclude Variola virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions.
