No
The summary describes a motorized surgical shaver and blades, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven features.

No.
The device is used to cut bone and tissue, which is a surgical tool, not a therapeutic device.

No
The device description states its function is for "controlled shaving, abrading and cutting of bone and tissue during arthroscopic surgical procedures," which are treatment or surgical actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "motorized surgical device" and includes "reusable and sterile, single use instruments" made of "surgical grade stainless steel," indicating it is a hardware device with physical components.

Based on the provided information, the Karl Storz Multidrive Mini Shaver and blades are not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "controlled shaving, abrading and cutting of bone and tissue during arthroscopic surgical procedures." This describes a surgical tool used directly on the patient's body during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "motorized surgical device" and "instruments are long enough to gain access to the surgical area." This further reinforces its role as a surgical instrument.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided information does not mention any such use or interaction with patient specimens.

Therefore, the Karl Storz Multidrive Mini Shaver and blades are classified as a surgical device, not an IVD.
