Not Found

No
The device description and intended use focus on a physical catheter for drainage and anesthesia delivery, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

Yes.
The device is used to deliver local anesthetic to relieve postoperative pain, which is considered a therapeutic application. The drainage function also contributes to therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a catheter used for draining fluids and administering local anesthetic, with no mention of diagnostic capabilities. Its function is to facilitate drainage and provide pain relief, not to identify or monitor medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly details a physical catheter made of silicone with multiple lumens, funnels, and a stopcock. This is a hardware medical device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used outside the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a catheter used to drain fluids and exudates during or after surgery and to deliver local anesthetic into the body (specifically, the pleural space). This is an invasive procedure performed in vivo (within the body).
  • Lack of Diagnostic Testing: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze samples or provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition. Its function is therapeutic (drainage and pain relief).

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical or therapeutic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Typical applications include: - For use where a routine chest tube is required to drain fluids and exudates during surgery or after surgery. The additional lumen allows for application of topical anaesthetic to relieve pleural pain.
