The summary describes a simple mechanical device (hemostatic clips) and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.
No
The device, DuoClip Titanium Clips, is indicated for "ligating blood vessels," which is a treatment for a medical condition. Therefore, it is a therapeutic device.
No
The device is indicated for ligating blood vessels, which is a therapeutic or surgical function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device is described as "DuoClip Titanium Clips" and is indicated for "ligating blood vessels," which strongly suggests a physical, hardware-based device (clips) rather than software. The predicate device is also "Hemostatic Clips," further supporting this conclusion.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "ligating blood vessels." This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the living body) to stop bleeding.
- 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 performed in vitro (outside the living body).
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples, diagnostic testing, or any of the typical characteristics of an IVD.
- Predicate Device: The predicate device is a "Hemostatic Clip," which is also a surgical device used for in vivo procedures.
Therefore, the DuoClip Titanium Clips are surgical devices used for hemostasis in vivo, not IVDs.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The indications for the use of the DuoClip Titanium Clips are the same as those for a Hemostatic Clips (Product Code 79MCH, Class1, Regulation# 878.4300).
The indications is for ligating blood vessels.
