More Information

Not Found

No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and describes the device as equivalent to a predicate device from 1980, which predates widespread AI/ML use in medical devices.

Yes
The device is described as an ultrasonic surgical instrument intended to cut or fragment tissue, bone, or organs, which describes a therapeutic function.

No
The device is described as an ultrasonic surgical instrument intended to cut or fragment tissue, bone, or organs, indicating a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "ultrasonic surgical instrument," which is a hardware device. The comparison to the predicate device, also an ultrasonic surgical aspirator, further confirms it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as "to cut or fragment tissue, bone, or organs in orthopedic surgery." This describes a surgical procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces its use as a surgical instrument for cutting and fragmenting tissue.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device's function is purely surgical.
