No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical components and established surgical techniques, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is used for surgery requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea, which is not considered a therapeutic function. It is a surgical tool.

No

The device description and intended use indicate it is a surgical tool used for lamellar resection of the cornea, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a power unit, keratome head, blade, motor, footswitches, applanator lenses, and suction rings. This indicates it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "initial lamellar resection of the cornea" during surgery. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device components are all instruments used for a surgical procedure (cutting, suction, fixation).
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide diagnostic information.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (in glass, or outside the body) to diagnose diseases or other conditions. This device is used in vivo (in the living body) for a surgical purpose.

Device Description

The MORIA CARRIAZO BARRAQUER microkeratome system is composed of:
a) Power unit
b) Keratome head
c) Keratome blade
d) Motor
e) Footswitches
f) Applanator lenses
g) Suction rings

The power unit includes pumps for producing vacuum and is designed to operate the keratome using either a 12 V DC motor or a nitrogen motor. It features a 2-position switch to select the power option, and a front panel with displays for vacuum pressure, gas pressure, battery level, battery charge, and various connectors.

The keratome motor has two options:

  1. Turbine motor: Gas-powered (recommended nitrogen, but accepts any medical gas), similar to those used in dental applications.
  2. Electrical 12 V DC motor.

The keratome head adapts to either the turbine or the motor via a threaded part and includes the blade, which is moved by the motor. Different heads are available to adjust the thickness of the cut.

Suction rings are used to fixate and pressurize the eye, providing a base for the microkeratome. They feature high precision guideways for accurate cut depth and translation across the cornea.

Applanator lenses are made of clear methylmethacrylate with a stainless steel handle. They are used with the rings to control disk diameter before the cut. The upper face is convex for magnification, and the base face is plano with an engraved and calibrated reticle diameter.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Keratomes have been used for lamellar keratoplasty for more than 30 years. The CARRIAZO BARRAQUER keratome performs equivalently to the predicate devices for creating circular lamellar resection of a predetermined diameter and thickness, and do not raise new issues of safety and effectiveness.

The keratome head adapts to the turbine or to the motor by means of a threaded part.

The keratome head includes the blade which is moved by the motor.

Different heads are available in order to adjust the thickness of the cut.

d) Suction rings

The suction rings are used to fixate and pressurize the eye and provide a base for the microkeratome. High precision guideways ensure accurate cut depth and translation accross the cornea.

The disks are mounted on the suction handle by means of a threaded tube welded on the ring.
