The device description and intended use focus on mechanical components (harness, straps, buckles) for physical restraint and line management. There is no mention of any computational or data-driven processes that would indicate AI/ML.
No
The device is described as a safety line to prevent medical line disconnections or occlusions, and to improve patient comfort and caregiver ease, not to treat a disease or condition.
No.
The device is described as a safety harness to secure medical lines to a patient, preventing line dislodgement, kinking, and occlusion. Its purpose is to facilitate the connection between a patient and a medical machine safely, rather than to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components such as a harness, tether strap, anchor strap, zipper sleeve, and buckles, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the AP Harness is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- AP Harness Function: The AP Harness is a physical device designed to provide a safety line and manage medical tubing connected to a patient. It's a mechanical support system used on the patient's body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a safety line between a patient and a medical machine connected by a medical line. This involves physical interaction and support, not laboratory testing of specimens.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of the harness and how it's worn and used to manage tubing. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the AP Harness falls under the category of a medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The AP Harness is to be used as a safety line between a patient and a medical machine which are connected by a medical line, (ie IV tubing, oxygen tubing, enteral tubing, etc. ). This device would be used when the patient or caregiver cannot maintain an adequate level of safety for an important catheter or other medical line.

Device Description
The A.P. Harness System facilitates increased safety and comfort of the active child or other patient while he/she is hooked-up to TPN, IV, enteral tube feed or other medical lines. This safety is accomplished by providing the maximum distance between the child and pump stand, determined by the length in the medical lines. This allows the child better access to his/her environment. The harness also limits kinking and subsequent occlusion in the medical lines. This frees the child from interruptions in play, while the caregiver searches for the location of an occlusion in the medical lines. Another benefit is increased safety and lowered stress for the caregiver. This means the supervision of the medical lines is done less intensively, and therefore the caregiver's attention can be directed to the child as a whole person and not just as a patient.
This system is comprised of a harness, a tether strap, an anchor strap, and a zipper sleeve. It is equipped with buckles that are small, low profile, strong, and secure. The shoulder straps are moveable along the chest strap; this facilitates infinite adjustability for a growing patient or for multiple patient use. The chest strap is worn directly underneath the axillas (armpits), which facilitates unhindered diaper changes and avoids soiling. The harness's location high on the chest puts the minimum amount of restriction on the respiratory system, as well as keeping access for common medical evaluations and nursing procedures. The chest strap is made of soft tubular webbing, which contours to the patients chest, preventing abrasion and pinching.
