More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a heated breathing circuit and its accessories, focusing on mechanical, thermal, and electrical safety, and functional performance. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
The device is a breathing circuit used to deliver humidified gas from a humidifier to a patient, it does not directly treat a disease or condition, but rather aids in the delivery of breathing gas.

No

The device description clearly states its purpose is to conduct humidified breathing gas from a humidifier to a patient, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "disposable breathing circuit with humidifier chamber" and mentions "mechanical, thermal safety, environmental conditions, electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility" testing, indicating it is a physical hardware device.

Based on the provided text, these devices are not IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use is to conduct humidified breathing gas from a humidifier to a patient. This is a therapeutic function related to respiratory support, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description confirms they are breathing circuits designed for delivering humidified gas to neonatal patients. This aligns with a respiratory support device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions

The devices are clearly described as components of a respiratory support system used in a clinical setting.
