The device is an over-the-counter kit for intravaginal insemination at home, used for semen collection and delivery, not for diagnosing any medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components (syringes and collection cups) and describes their function in semen collection and delivery, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, the Mosie Baby Kit is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the collection and delivery of semen to the vaginal canal for conception. This is a physical process, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The components are syringes and collection cups used for handling and delivering semen. These are tools for a physical procedure, not for analyzing biological samples to diagnose or monitor a condition.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device does not analyze semen or any other biological sample to provide information about a person's health status, disease, or condition. It facilitates the physical act of insemination.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on shelf life, bioburden, functional testing, sperm survival in vitro (to ensure the device doesn't harm sperm), biocompatibility, and human factors/labeling comprehension. These are relevant to the safety and usability of a physical device, not the analytical or clinical performance of a diagnostic test.
In summary, the Mosie Baby Kit is a medical device intended for a physical procedure (intravaginal insemination) and does not perform any diagnostic testing on biological samples.

Performed in accordance with 2020 FDA guidance document Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1. Testing included: Cytotoxicity per ISO 10993-5:2009, Sensitization per ISO 10993-10:2010, Vaginal irritation per ISO 10993-23:2021. Results showed the device is non-cytotoxic, non-irritating, and non-sensitizing.
Clinical Performance Testing:
Data from two clinical studies supported self-selection and labeling comprehension for OTC home use.
Self-Selection Study (with Labeling Comprehension):
Study assessed whether potential users could accurately determine if they should use the product and understand indications, contraindications, and what the product is not intended to treat.
Sample size: 32 participants (15 contraindicated female participants, 17 non-contraindicated female participants). Participants varied in age, occupation, ethnicity, education, and English health literacy (REALM test). All participants were able to identify: Who the kit is indicated/intended for, whether it is acceptable for them to use the product, what difficulty they had in determining acceptability if any, who should not use the kit, and what the product acknowledges that it does not do.
Human Factors Validation Study (with Labeling Comprehension):
Study validated that potential users could successfully use the Mosie Baby Kit using only the device labeling and that critical tasks would not result in use errors or harm.
Sample size: 30 participants (15 self-administered, 15 administered to a female recipient). Participants varied in age, gender, occupation, ethnicity, education, and English health literacy (REALM test).
Participants self-familiarized with the IFU and performed the procedure unaided. Questions were asked about WHEN to use, HOW OFTEN to use, WHEN to contact a physician, WHAT to collect semen sample in, STORAGE of semen sample, HOW LONG semen sample can be stored, WHAT NOT to do after filling syringe until fully inserted, WHAT the female recipient should do after insemination, DISPOSING of used product, and WHEN to use the second syringe and cup. All questions were answered correctly by at least 90% of participants, with no stated difficulty in understanding.
Conclusion: Self-selection and label comprehension were demonstrated across both studies to support OTC use of the device and substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

8
Syringes and collection cups were shown to meet the HSSA acceptance specification (≥80% of control motility at 24 hours) at all time points assessed.
Biocompatibility Testing
Biocompatibility testing was performed in accordance with the 2020 FDA guidance document Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" as follows:
- Cytotoxicity per ISO 10993-5:2009
- Sensitization per ISO 10993-10:2010 ●
- Vaginal irritation per ISO 10993-23:2021 .
The results of testing demonstrated that the subject device is non-cytotoxic, non-irritating, and nonsensitizing.
Clinical Performance Testing
Data from two clinical studies was used to support self-selection and labeling comprehension testing for the subject device, to support OTC home use.
Self-Selection Study (with Labeling Comprehension)
A labeling comprehension and self-selection study was conducted with the Mosie Baby Kit. The study assessed whether potential users could accurately determine if they should use the product or not based on labeling, and if potential users could understand the indications for use, contraindications, and what the product is not intended to treat. The study consisted of thirty-two (32) participants: fifteen (15) contraindicated female participants and seventeen (17) non-contraindicated female participants. All participants varied in age, occupation, ethnicity, highest level of completed education, and English health literacy level [as determined by the Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine (REALM) test]. Additionally, participants were representative of the intended user in the United States, as all participants who were not contraindicated (intended users) reported that they were attempting to conceive and had varying degree of comfort/experience in using and inserting devices into the vagina.
All participants were able to identify the following information on the labeling:
- Who the kit is indicated/intended for,
- Whether it is acceptable for them to use the product (and why or why not), ●
- What difficulty they had, if any in determining whether it was acceptable for them to use the product,
- Who should not use the kit, and
- What the product acknowledges that it does not do.
Human Factors Validation Study (with Labeling Comprehension)
A human factors validation study was performed with the Mosie Baby Kit. The study validated that potential users could successfully use the Mosie Baby Kit using only the information in the device labeling (package label and Instructions for Use) and that performance of critical tasks would not result in use errors or harm to the patient; and that use-related risks for the final/finished product were eliminated or mitigated. A total of thirty participants were enrolled: fifteen participants who self-administered and fifteen
9
participants who administered to a female recipient were enrolled. All participants varied in age, gender, occupation, ethnicity, highest level of completed education, and English health literacy level [as determined by the Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine (REALM) test]. Additionally, participants were representative of the intended user in the United States, as all participants reported that they were attempting to conceive and had varying degree of comfort/experience in using and inserting devices into the vagina.
Participants self-familiarized with the Mosie Baby Kit and Instructions for Use (IFU) and were then asked to perform the procedure unaided. After completing the simulated procedure, participants were asked about their experience and were asked questions about information in the IFU related to the following:
- When to use the kit,
- . How often to use the kit,
- When to contact a physician, ●
- What to collect the semen sample in, .
- . Storage of the semen sample (if needed),
- How long the semen sample can be stored (if needed),
- What not to do after filling the syringe until the syringe is fully inserted in the vagina, ●
- What the female recipient should do after the insemination procedure,
- Disposing of the used product, and ●
- When to use the second syringe and cup. ●
These questions included warnings and precautions provided in the device labeling, with the exception of who should not use the device, as this was addressed in the self-selection study discussed above. All questions were answered correctly by at least 90% of participants, and none of the participants stated difficulty understanding the answers to any of the questions.
In conclusion, self-selection and label comprehension were demonstrated across both studies to support OTC use of the device and substantial equivalence to the predicate device. The study population also reported demographic information representative of the US population and successfully completed all elements of the studies.
Conclusion
The results of the performance testing support a determination of substantial equivalence of the subject device to the predicate devices, and do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.
