No
The summary describes a mechanical elastomeric infusion pump and explicitly states "Not Found" for mentions of AI, DNN, or ML.

No.
The 'Intended Use' states the device is an "elastomeric infusion pump," which are typically used for drug delivery, not for therapy itself.

No
The document describes an "Infusor," which is a device for delivering substances (like medication) into the body, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it utilizes physical components like a silicone shaft and balloon, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is described as being similar to "other legally marketed elastomeric infusion pumps." Elastomeric infusion pumps are devices used to deliver fluids (like medications) into a patient's body. This is a therapeutic or drug delivery function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the materials used in the pump's construction (silicone shaft and balloon). This is consistent with a device that physically delivers substances.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. The description of the DIB Infusor clearly points to a device used for delivering substances into the body, not for analyzing substances from the body.

§ 880.5725 Infusion pump.

(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

SUMMARY of SAFETY and EFFECTIVENESS for the DIB INFUSOR

I. Standards and Intended Use

The DIB Infusors utilize all biocompatible materials, including a medical grade silicone shaft and silicone balloon. The DIB Infusor will conform to the AMMI Draft Infusion Device Standard. The intended use of the DIB Infusor is similar to that of other legally marketed elastomeric infusion pumps.

II. Manufacturing and Testing Procedures

All manufacturing operations are performed in a class 10,000 clean room in accordance with GMP regulations. The silicone balloons are 100% tested to an internal pressure of 110+5 mmhg. Normal clinical operating pressure has been measured at approximately 70 mmhg. Full traceability of production lots will be maintained.
