No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the device description is not available to provide further clues.

Yes

The device delivers gases and anesthetic vapor to patients, which directly affects the patient's physiological state during medical procedures.

No
Explanation: The device is an anesthesia machine used for delivering gases and anesthetic vapor, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description is not found, but the intended use clearly describes a physical anaesthesia machine that delivers gases and anesthetic vapor, which are hardware functions.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as an anaesthesia machine used for delivering gases and anaesthetic vapour to patients during medical procedures. This is a therapeutic and life-support function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) or to provide information for the diagnosis of a disease or condition.
  • Device Description (Not Found): While the description is missing, the intended use is the primary indicator of whether a device is an IVD.
  • Other Sections: The absence of information in sections like "Mentions image processing," "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML," "Input Imaging Modality," "Anatomical Site," and performance study details further supports that this is not a diagnostic device.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This anaesthesia machine does not fit that description.

Re: K982137 Blease Frontline Genius Range Anesthesia Machines Requlatory Class: II (two) Product Code: 73 BSZ Dated: February 2, 1999 February 5, 1999 Received:

Dear Mr. Cooke:

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 legally marketed predicate 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, Druq, 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 requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) 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 requlation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. 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.
