Not Found

Based on the provided text, there is no indication that the Bemis Two Gallon Chemotherapy Container contains an AI model.

The document describes a physical sharps disposal container with features related to its construction, safety, and intended use. It mentions materials, dimensions, labeling, stability, and testing for puncture resistance, leakproofness, and impact resistance.

There are no mentions of AI, machine learning, deep neural networks, image processing, or any other terms typically associated with AI models. The device's function is purely mechanical and passive.

No
This device is a container for the safe disposal of chemotherapy waste and sharps, not a device used for therapy or treatment of a disease or condition.

No

The device is a sharps disposal container for chemotherapy waste, and its intended use is for safe disposal, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly details a physical container made of polypropylene plastic with specific dimensions, weight, and features like a gasketed lid and screw-on cap. It also describes physical testing for puncture resistance, leakproofness, toppling, and impact resistance. This indicates a hardware device, 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 is for the safe disposal of chemotherapy waste, specifically sharps like needles and syringes. This is a waste management function, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the container (material, size, puncture resistance, leakproofness, labeling) and its function as a disposal unit. There is no mention of reagents, assays, or any components used to analyze biological samples.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: The document does not describe any process for analyzing a sample, detecting a substance, or providing information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not perform any such function. It is a container for disposing of medical waste.
