No
The device description and performance studies focus on traditional optical technology and bench testing, with no mention of AI/ML, image processing, or data sets for training/testing.
No
The device is described as a "telescope" intended to "provide visualization during laparoscopy and general surgery," which indicates it is used for imaging and diagnostic purposes, not for treating a condition.
No
The device is intended to provide visualization during surgical procedures, not to diagnose medical conditions. It helps the surgeon see the surgical field, which is a tool for intervention, not diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states that the HOPKINS Telescopes are rigid telescopes that utilize rod lens technology and have physical components like a shaft, lens, eyepiece, and optical glass rods. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "provide visualization during laparoscopy and general surgery." This describes a device used during a surgical procedure to allow the surgeon to see inside the body.
- Device Description: The description details a rigid telescope with optical components for transmitting and magnifying images. This is consistent with a surgical visualization tool.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. The provided information does not mention any testing of samples or diagnostic information derived from such tests.
The device is clearly intended for direct visualization in vivo (within the living body) during surgery, which is not the function of an IVD.
