No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter made of silicone with lumina, adapters, and varying lengths, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a central venous access device for procedures like hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion. These are procedures performed on the patient, not tests performed on samples taken from the patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed for insertion into the central venous system to facilitate the flow of blood or fluids. This is a therapeutic/access device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to provide access to the central venous system for therapeutic procedures.
