No
The 510(k) summary describes a wound dressing emulsion and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is intended to be used as a wound dressing for various medical conditions, including superficial wounds, burns, and ulcers, which are therapeutic applications.

No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that BIAFINE™ is a wound dressing for various types of wounds, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states "BIAFINE® Wound Dressing Emulsion," indicating a physical product (an emulsion) used as a wound dressing, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes BIAFINE™ as a "wound dressing" for various types of wounds and burns. This is a topical application for treating the body directly.
  • Device Description: It's described as a "Wound Dressing Emulsion," which is a physical product applied to the skin.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVDs are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body to provide information about a person's health. The provided information does not mention any such testing or analysis of specimens.

Therefore, BIAFINE™ is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a wound dressing, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
