Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly define the device as a disposable barrier gown, which is a physical protective garment and does not involve any computational or data processing capabilities. The "Not Found" entries for AI/ML mentions, image processing, training/test sets, and performance studies further confirm the absence of AI/ML.

No
The device, a barrier gown, is intended for protection against microorganisms and fluids, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is a barrier gown intended for general medical purposes to protect against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. It is a protective garment, not a device used to identify or determine the nature of a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical garment (gowns) and does not mention any software component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to protect individuals from the transfer of micro-organisms, body fluids, and particulate material. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic function.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces the barrier function of the gowns.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific substances, or providing information for diagnosis.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

§ 878.4040 Surgical apparel.

(a)
Identification. Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must:
(A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and
(B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device.
(iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation.
(2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9.
