Not Found

No
The provided 510(k) summary contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other terms typically associated with AI/ML technology in medical devices.

Yes
The Intended Use section clearly states that the device is for "surgical intervention to reattach the retina and preserve/reserve the patient's vision," which describes a therapeutic action.

No
The intended use describes a surgical intervention to reattach the retina, which is a treatment, not a diagnostic process.

Unknown

The provided 510(k) summary lacks a device description, which is crucial for determining if the device is software-only or includes hardware components.

Based on the information provided, it is highly unlikely that this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "Retinal detachment requiring surgical intervention to reattach the retina and preserve/reserve the patient's vision." This describes a surgical procedure and its goal, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The provided information lacks any of the typical characteristics of an IVD:
    • No mention of samples: IVDs analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.). There is no mention of samples here.
    • No mention of diagnostic testing: The focus is on surgical intervention and preserving vision, not on diagnosing the condition itself (which would likely be done prior to considering this device).
    • No mention of analytical or clinical performance metrics relevant to diagnostics: Metrics like sensitivity, specificity, AUC, etc., are crucial for evaluating the performance of diagnostic tests. These are listed as "Not Found."

Conclusion:

The intended use and the absence of any information related to sample analysis or diagnostic testing strongly suggest that this device is a surgical device or instrument used during or for the surgical treatment of retinal detachment, rather than a device used to diagnose retinal detachment.

Therefore, it is not an IVD.
