Intended Use
The Radionics Burr Hole Valve is indicated for the treatment of hydrocephalus. It is a device The Racebook and fluid from the ventricles of the brain to an appropriate drainage ate, such as the atrium of the heart or the peritoneal cavity. The Burr Hole Valve is designed to fit into a formal burr hole.
Device Description
The Burr Hole Valve is designed for use as a cerebrospinal fluid shum. It is the commercially available Radionics Contour Flex membrane valve with an alternate shaped reservoir/ pumping chamber; the Burr Hole Valve is shaped to fit into a burr hole. The Radionics Burr Hole Valve has the same intended use and design characteristics as the PS Medical Burr Hole Valve and the Radionics Contour Flex Valve. The Radionics Burr Hole Valve has the same reservoir shape and similar dimensions to the PS Medical Burr Hole Valve. Both of these valves are designed in two sizes to fit a 12 mm and 16 mm burr hole. The fluid flow path is the same for the Radionics Burr Hole Valve and the Contour Flex Valve. In addition, the flow control element is the same for the Burr Hole and Contour Flex Valves. The same polypropylene base/ silicone membrane valve component is used in both systems resulting in the same pressure flow specifications for each type of valve.

The description focuses on the mechanical design and function of a cerebrospinal fluid shunt valve, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of hydrocephalus by draining fluid from the brain, which qualifies it as a therapeutic intervention.

No
Explanation: This device is described as a "cerebrospinal fluid shunt" and is used for "the treatment of hydrocephalus" by draining fluid. Its purpose is therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical implantable device (Burr Hole Valve) designed to fit into a burr hole and shunt cerebrospinal fluid. It mentions materials like polypropylene and silicone membrane, indicating hardware 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 treat hydrocephalus by draining cerebrospinal fluid from the brain ventricles to another part of the body. This is a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the living body).
  • Device Description: The description details a physical device designed to be implanted and manage fluid flow within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to diagnose, monitor, or screen for conditions. This device is a surgical implant used for treatment.

§ 882.5550 Central nervous system fluid shunt and components.

(a)
Identification. A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
