The summary describes a surgical instrument wipe and contains no mention of AI, ML, or related technologies.

No
The device is described as an "instrument wipe" for use during surgical procedures, which cleans instruments rather than directly treating a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device, the INVOTEC CLEAN PAD, is described as an "instrument wipe" for use during surgical procedures. Its function is to clean instruments, which is a supportive role in a medical procedure, not a diagnostic one. Diagnostic devices are used to identify the presence, nature, or cause of a disease or condition.

No

The provided 510(k) summary describes a physical instrument wipe ("CLEAN PAD") used during surgery, which is a hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, the INVOTEC CLEAN PAD is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "as an instrument wipe during any surgical procedure." This describes a device used on instruments, not for testing samples taken from the body (which is the core function of an IVD).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health
    • Using reagents or assays

The INVOTEC CLEAN PAD appears to be a surgical accessory used for cleaning instruments, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Dear Mr. Aull:

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 regulation (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.
