Intended Use
The drill is intended to be used with an external drainage and monitoring system in selected patients to reduce intracranial pressure (ICP), to monitor CSF, to provide temporary drainage of CSF, and to monitor ICP. The drill is intended for single use only.
Device Description
Clinical Neuro Systems Interchangeable Bit Cranial Drill consists of various bit sizes used during a ventriculostomy procedure. The product includes a hand drill with variable chuck, a 0.156" (3.97mm) drill bit with depth guard, a 0.209" (5.31mm) drill bit with depth guard, and a 0.25" (6.35mm) drill bit with depth guard. The depth quard allows accurate, secure, and easy to use adjustment of cranial drill depth. Cranial drill depth is selected by setting the depth guard to the required distance. The Cranial Drill allows for access to the subarachnoid space or the lateral ventricles of the brain. The Cranial Drill is supplied sterile, double CSR wrapped in a Chevron pouch.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical aspects and sterility of a cranial drill, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is a drill, used to create access during a procedure, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition itself.

No

The device is a surgical drill used for accessing the brain, monitoring ICP, and draining CSF. These are therapeutic and monitoring functions, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like a hand drill, drill bits, and depth guards, 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:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is a cranial drill used to create access to the subarachnoid space or lateral ventricles of the brain. This is a surgical tool used on the body, not a test performed on samples from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to reduce intracranial pressure, monitor CSF, provide temporary drainage of CSF, and monitor ICP. These are all direct interventions or measurements taken within the body, not diagnostic tests performed on samples.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical instrument or medical device used for direct intervention and monitoring within the body, not an in vitro diagnostic.
