No
The 510(k) summary describes a replacement battery for a pulse oximeter and contains no mention of AI or ML technology.

No
Explanation: This device is a replacement battery for a pulse oximeter, not the diagnostic or therapeutic device itself. Its function is to power the oximeter, not to directly provide therapy.

No
The device is a replacement battery for a pulse oximeter, not a diagnostic device itself.

No

The device is described as a "Replacement Battery" and "Replacement Battery Part Number MS71764," indicating it is a physical hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as a "Replacement battery for Nellcor, Inc. 071764 N-10 Pulse Oximeter". This is a component that powers a medical device, not a device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body for the purpose of providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "Replacement Battery Part Number MS71764". This further reinforces its function as a power source.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in specimens
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

The device is a replacement part for a medical device (a pulse oximeter), which is used in vivo (within the body) to measure physiological parameters. The battery itself does not perform any diagnostic function.

Dear Mr. Heimendinger:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
