Intended Use
The RDI Suction Safety Device is intended to be used during open heart surgery and placed in a suction line to permit flow only away from the heart, prevent buildup of line pressure, and limit line vacuum.
Device Description
The RDI Suction Safety Device is a three function assembly that is positioned in a suction line. The Suction Safety Device contains to valves. The first valve is a check valve that insures unidirectional flow. The second valve is a combination valve that relieves excess pressure and relieves excess vacuum.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical functions (valves, pressure/vacuum relief, flow control) and do not mention any computational or learning-based components. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No
The device is described as a "Suction Safety Device" that manages flow, pressure, and vacuum in a suction line during surgery. It does not directly provide therapy or treatment to the patient. Its function is to ensure the safe and proper operation of a surgical suction system, which is a supportive role rather than a therapeutic one.

No
The device's function is to regulate pressure and vacuum in a suction line during surgery, ensuring one-way flow for safety and preventing buildup; it does not diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "three function assembly" containing "two valves" positioned in a "suction line," indicating a physical hardware device. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to be placed in a suction line during open heart surgery to manage flow, pressure, and vacuum. This is a device used during a surgical procedure on a patient, not a device used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Device Description: The description details mechanical valves that control flow, pressure, and vacuum. This aligns with a surgical accessory, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Information: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or provide any kind of diagnostic result about a patient's condition.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical function of the device (pressure relief, one-way flow, vacuum relief, packaging integrity, aging), not on the accuracy or reliability of a diagnostic test.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not fit that description.
