More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on a physical cassette system for holding instruments during cleaning and sterilization, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No
The device is a cassette system used to hold instruments for cleaning and sterilization, not to directly treat a medical condition or disease.

No

This device is a cassette system designed to hold instruments during cleaning and sterilization cycles, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "metal, aluminum and stainless steel container" and a "cassette system and accessories," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "General dental / medical instrument cassette intended to hold instruments and accessories in place throughout the entire instrument use, cleaning and sterilization cycle." This describes a device used for the handling and processing of medical instruments, not for testing samples from the human body to diagnose conditions.
  • Device Description: The description details a "cassette system and accessories designed to hold various dental and medical instrument to be cleaned and sterilized." This further reinforces its role in instrument management.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detect analytes, or provide diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the device's ability to withstand sterilization and cleaning processes, which is relevant to instrument handling, not diagnostic testing.

In summary, the device's function is to facilitate the cleaning and sterilization of medical instruments, which is a crucial part of infection control in healthcare settings. This is distinct from the purpose of an In Vitro Diagnostic device, which is used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to aid in diagnosis.
