Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description: The Pelvic Holder is a physical restraint device designed to prevent a patient from sliding down in a wheelchair. It interacts with the patient externally and does not involve the analysis of any biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for patient restraint and slider control in a wheelchair, which is a mechanical function, not a diagnostic one.
Therefore, the Pelvic Holder falls under the category of a physical support or restraint device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

The use of all patient restraints in nursing homes are subject to Health Care Financing Administration's Regulations which prohibit the use of any restraint, physical or chemical, imposed for the purpose of discipline or convenience. Further, most health care facilities are accredited. HCFA rules governing appropriate use and accreditation standards for device use and personnel training provide the control necessary to ensure that the devices are used correctly. The application of these standards along with public awareness and health care provider training have contributed significantly to ensuring that the least restrictive restraint is used, that restraints are used only when needed for proper medical treatment, and that their use is under appropriate supervision.
