No
The device description and intended use focus solely on physical positioning and immobilization components for radiotherapy and imaging, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No.

The device is used for positioning and immobilization during radiotherapy, which is a treatment, but the device itself does not deliver or perform the therapeutic action. It is an accessory for the treatment.

No

The device is used for positioning and immobilization of patients during radiotherapy and radio diagnostics, as well as during image acquisition for treatment support. It does not perform any diagnostic function itself.

No

The device description explicitly details physical components such as thermoplastic masks, a baseplate, and couch strips, which are hardware used for patient positioning and immobilization.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as "Positioning and immobilization of the patient during radiotherapy and radio diagnostics." This is a physical function related to patient treatment and imaging, not the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility.
  • Device Description: The device components (masks, baseplate, couch strips) are described as physical items used for positioning and immobilization. There is no mention of reagents, calibrators, controls, or any components typically associated with in vitro testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.

The device is a medical device used in a clinical setting for patient positioning during procedures, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

intended use because they only represent minor changes which serve to improve the completeness and clarity of the Indications for Use statement and do not alter the purpose or use of the devices.

Comparison of technological characteristics:

The designs of the MacroMedics subject device and the predicate device are equivalent in materials, construction, use and functionality. Both the MacroMedics DSPS & SSPS thermoplastic masks and the new MacroMedics DSPS-Prominent masks are thermoplastic masks made of the same thermoplastic materials which become pliable when heated and rigid when cooled, thus being able to be moulded to the contours of the patient to form a personalised mask. In both cases, occipital and facial masks are available. In both cases, the thermoplastic material is attached to a plastic frame (part of the mask), and this plastic frame is designed to be fixed to the frame of another device to facilitate patient positioning within a double shell' (facial and occipital) mask system. In both cases, the masks are MR Safe. In both cases, the positioning of the head and neck is supported, with the predicate device also offering facial head, neck and shoulder' masks. The DSPS-Prominent masks additionally allow the shoulder region of the patient to be positioned and immobilized within occipital masks.

Substantial equivalence summary:

MacroMedics claims the proposed DSPS-Prominent™ devices to be substantially equivalent to the devices previously cleared by the FDA in the 510(k) specified above. These devices are also cleared for use in a radiotherapy and MR environment.

MacroMedics claims this equivalence because the proposed devices have equivalent designs and intended uses. These products have very similar positioning and immobilization characteristics.

Conclusion:
