Yes
The device is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin for the management of diabetes mellitus, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is an insulin pump intended for the delivery of insulin for the management of diabetes, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. While it can display CGM data, its primary function is not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system includes a "Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology" which is a physical hardware component for delivering insulin. While the system also includes a mobile app for control, it is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is the subcutaneous delivery of insulin for the management of diabetes. This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device is described as an "Alternate Controller Enabled (ACE) Infusion Pump" for infusing insulin. It includes components for controlling and monitoring insulin delivery.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device performing any tests on biological samples (blood, urine, etc.) to diagnose a condition or provide information for diagnosis. While it can receive data from a CGM (which is a diagnostic device), the pump itself is not performing the diagnostic test.
- Anatomical Site: The insulin is delivered subcutaneously, which is a route of administration, not a site for in vitro testing.
In summary, the Tandem Mobi insulin pump is a therapeutic device used to administer insulin, not a diagnostic device used to perform tests on biological samples.
