The device description and performance studies focus on physical restraints and their safety/effectiveness, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
Explanation: The device is described as a patient safety device used to limit movement for safety reasons, not for actively treating a medical condition or disease.
No
Explanation: The device, Medline's Limb holders, is intended to be a patient safety device for limiting movement of a limb. Its purpose is to physically restrain, not to diagnose any medical condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical product (limb holders) made of materials like fabric, buckles, and hook and loop closures, intended for physical restraint. There is no mention of software components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to limit limb movement for patient safety. This is a physical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the body.
- Device Description: The description details a physical restraint device with different closure mechanisms. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological specimen. There is no indication of providing information about a patient's health status based on such analysis.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit that description.

Device Description
Medline's Limb holders are intended to be utilized as a patient safety device when limited movement of the limb is deemed necessary. The limb holders are all of the same basic design, some with different linings on the cuff, others utilize buckles, hook and loop closures ("velcro") or D-rings. They may be used either at the wrist or ankle and may tie to the bed frame or wheelchair.
The various types of limb holders are discussed as follows:
-
Deluxe Limb Holder - Lined with synthetic fur to minimize chafe and irritation. Hook and loop closure to help prevent tightening or loosening of cuff. Straps adjust via sewn in loops. May tie to bed frame or wheelchair frame. These limb holders are available in either cotton or nylon. Reference Attachment A for a picture of this device. Item is washable.
-
Padded Limb Holder - Lined with synthetic fur to minimize chafe and irritation. Cuff adjusts using a corset buckle that helps prevent tightening or loosening of cuff. Belts may be detachable or non-detachable at cuff, and adjust via corset buckles. Reference Attachment A for a picture of this device. Item is washable.
-
Quick Control Limb Holder - Lined with synthetic fur to minimize chafe and irritation. Cuff adjusts using a hook and loop closure with two adjustment rings. Reference Attachment A for a picture of this device. Item is washable.
-
Adjustable Limb Holder - Lined with cotton to help minimize chafe and irritation. straps adjust via sewn on loops. Reference Attachment A for a picture of this device. Item is washable. Cuff backing may be Cotton Flannel or Nylon.
-
Cinch-Type Limb Holder - Lined with one-piece foam to minimize chafe and irritation. Hook and loop closure tab will adhere anywhere on the foam backing. Straps adiust via metal "D" rings. Reference Attachment A for a picture of this device. Item may be washed or discarded.
-
Modified Cinch-Type Limb Holder - Lined with one-piece foam to minimize chafe and irritation. Hook and loop closure tab will adhere anywhere on the foam backing. Straps adjust via metal "D" rings. This item differs from the Cinch-Type Limb Holder in that the wrist strap is independent of the anchor strap. Reference Attachment A for a picture of this device. Item may be washed or discarded.
-
Economy Limb Holder - Cuff is made of orthopedic felt. Straps adjust using corset buckles. Reference Attachment A for a picture of this device. Item may be washed or discarded.
8.0 Single Patient Use Limb Holder - Cuff is made of foam that closes with a hook and loop tab with a nylon "D" ring. This item is the same in design as our Cinch-Type Limb Holder but is not washable and is labeled for single patient use only.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
A total of thirteen articles were reviewed for this 510(k) submission. The articles listed in the citation contained pertinent data for establishing the safety and efficacy of protective restraints.
Specific safety and effectiveness data outlined in the literature include actual as well as potential complications which may occur and are summarized as follows:
Emotional desolation, agitation, fractures, chafing, burns, nerve damage, circulatory impairment, decubitus ulcers, death, and strangulation attributed to incorrect supervision, handling or application of protective restraint devices by medical or paramedical personnel. These incidences seem to be the result of inappropriate patient selection (physically restraining a patient for whom physical restrain is contraindicated), incorrect restraint selection, errors in correctly applying the device, and/or inadequate monitory of patients when restrained.
When used correctly and for indicated circumstances, protective restrains provide benefits to many patients, such as precluding patients with temporary medical related cognitive deficits from impairing the resolution of their physical problems by involuntarily discontinuing life-support or other needed medical interventions, temporarily reducing the mobility of agitated patients, or limiting the movement of a restrained limb to a desired range or limit.
