The device description and intended use indicate that the Vitruvian Liposaber™ is used for aesthetic body contouring through a liposuction procedure, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function. It explicitly states "Aesthetic Body Contouring" as its intended use. There is no mention of image processing, AI, or any diagnostic capabilities.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical hardware components including a control unit, interconnecting cable, handpiece, motor, cannula, and vacuum tubing. The performance studies also include testing related to electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and physical functionality (stroke rate, stroke distance, load, temperature), which are characteristic of hardware devices.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "Aesthetic Body Contouring," which is a surgical procedure performed on the body, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is described as a system for liposuction, involving a handpiece, cannula, and vacuum tubing. This is a surgical tool used for removing fat, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens and provide diagnostic information. This device is clearly used in vivo (inside the body) for a surgical procedure.

Device Description
The Vitruvian LiposaberTM consists of a control unit with an interconnecting cable to power and control a handpiece. The handpiece employs a motor intended to imitate the surgeons repetitive back and forth motions used during the liposuction procedure. The handpiece holds the cannula and the vacuum tubing. The handpiece is controlled by the user through the interaction with the control unit. The control unit controls the speed of the motor in the handpiece which provides the reciprocating motion of the cannula. The speed of the motor is variable between 3000 and 5000 RPM. The nominal speed is 4000 which can be adjusted using the controls on the handpiece between 3000 and 4000 RPM. Adjustments higher than 4000 must be performed through the user interface on the control unit.
The Vitruvian Liposaber is a pre-assembled device consisting of:
Control Unit: Turns device power on and off and is attached to handpiece with a 10 ft cable. The Control Unit includes an interface to allow the user to change the motor speed between 3000 to 5000 RPM at 100 RPM steps and start and stop the cannula motion. The Control Unit is outside the sterile field.
Power Operation: 100-240VAC, 50-60Hz, 0.1-0.2A
Handpiece: Anodized aluminum body with stainless steel shaft to drive the cannula in a reciprocating motion. The handpiece is a reusable sterile component. The handpiece includes a user interface to allow the user to control the speed between 3000 – 4000 RPM and start and stop the canula motion.
Display: LED
Connecting Cable: Connects handpiece to control unit.
