The summary provides no indication of AI/ML technology; it describes a repair kit for pilot tubes.
No
The device restores the integrity of pilot tubes, not directly providing therapy to a patient.
No
The device restores the integrity of damaged pilot tubes, which is a repair function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states "BE 409 Pilot Tube Repair Kit," which strongly suggests a physical kit containing hardware components for repair, not a software-only solution.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "Restore the integrity of damaged endotracheal and tracheostomy pilot tubes." This describes a repair function for a medical device used in vivo (within the body), not a test performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples to diagnose or monitor a condition.
- Device Description: The description "BE 409 Pilot Tube Repair Kit" further supports the idea of a repair tool, not a diagnostic test.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.
Therefore, this device falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Restores the integrity of damaged endotracheal and tracheostomy pilot tubes
When the endotracheal or tracheostomy pilot tube no longer maintains cuff inflation pressure, the needle of the BE 409 Pilot Tube Repair Kit is inserted into the cut pilot tube. The cuff can then be re-inflated in the usual manner. Such a repair can deter the need to replace the entire endotracheal or tracheostomy tube because of a damaged pilot tube.

Re : K973755 Pilot Tube Repair Kit Regulatory Class: II (two) Product Code: BSK September 30, 1997 Dated: Received: October 2, 1997
Dear Ms. Zuravleff:
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 Requlations, 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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling requlation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4648. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
