No
The summary describes a physical implant for nasal augmentation and reconstruction. There is no mention of software, data processing, or any terms related to AI or ML.

No
The device is described as an implant for augmentation and reconstruction of the nasal contour, which suggests a cosmetic or structural purpose rather than treating a disease or medical condition.

No
The device description states its use for "augmentation and reconstruction of the nasal contour," indicating a therapeutic or reconstructive purpose rather than diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "Implant," which 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 is for "augmentation and reconstruction of the nasal contour." This describes a surgical implant used directly on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "Silimed Nasal 'L' Shaped Implant." This is a physical implant.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. The provided information does not mention any such use or interaction with biological samples.

Therefore, the Silimed Nasal Implant is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a surgical implant rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear E.J. Smith:

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 Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, 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 II (Special Controls) or 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 (OS) 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 the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
