The summary describes a mechanical vacuum device and constriction ring set with no mention of AI or ML technology.
Yes
The device is intended to assist men in achieving and maintaining an erection, addressing a physiological issue.
No
Explanation: The device is intended to assist men in achieving and maintaining an erection, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It helps with a physical condition rather than identifying or analyzing a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states "Vacuum Device and Constriction Ring Set," indicating it includes physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a "Vacuum Device and Constriction Ring Set" used to physically assist in achieving and maintaining an erection. It acts externally on the body.
- No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological samples.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of the device is to assist men who have difficulty in achieving an erection by using the vacuum device and maintaining a satisfactory erection by using the constriction rings.
For men who are able to achieve an erection but not maintain it, the application of a constriction ring at the base of the penis can sufficiently reduce venous leak to maintain the erection. In this instance, they may not be required to use the vacuum device.

Dear Mr. Shapiro:
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 Devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, 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 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 requirement, 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 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.
