No
The summary describes a powered air mattress with adjustable firmness and a CPR mode, with no mention of AI or ML terms or functionalities.

Yes
The device is intended for the "prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers," which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device description and intended use indicate it is a therapeutic device (for prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers) rather than a diagnostic one. It does not analyze patient data or provide medical insights to identify conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "powered air flotation mattress," which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "For the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers." This is a therapeutic and preventative function related to patient care, not the diagnosis of a disease or condition using in vitro methods.
  • Device Description: The description details a "powered air flotation mattress" that provides pressure-reducing support. This is a physical device used externally on a patient.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases

The device is clearly a medical device, but its function is related to patient support and pressure management, not in vitro diagnostic testing.
