No
The summary describes physical medical devices (blood reservoirs and oxygenators) used in extracorporeal circulation and makes no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML technologies.

Yes
The devices, particularly the oxygenators, are explicitly described as providing "extracorporeal gas exchange support and blood temperature control," which are direct physiological interventions aimed at sustaining or improving bodily function during surgical procedures.

No

Explanation: The devices described are for storage, filtration, and gas exchange of blood during surgical procedures. Their intended use is to support bodily functions during extracorporeal circulation, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device descriptions clearly indicate physical medical devices (venous reservoirs, oxygenators) used in surgical procedures requiring extracorporeal circulation. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

Based on the provided information, these devices are not IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes these devices as being used during surgical procedures on patients requiring extracorporeal circulation. They are for handling and processing blood outside the body as part of a medical procedure, not for analyzing blood or other biological samples to diagnose a condition.
  • Nature of the Devices: The descriptions (reservoirs, oxygenators) indicate devices that are part of an extracorporeal circuit to support physiological functions (blood storage, gas exchange, temperature control) during surgery. This is distinct from devices used to perform tests on biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, these devices fall under the category of medical devices used in surgical procedures, not in vitro diagnostics.

Re: K974085 COBE® Oxygenator Products Regulatory Class: III (Three) Product Code: 74 DTZ October 24, 1997 Dated: October 29, 1997 Received:

Dear Ms. Leonard:

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.
