No
The summary describes a process indicator, which is a simple chemical or physical indicator, and contains no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts.

No
The device is described as a "Process indicator" used to demonstrate exposure to a process and distinguish between processed and unprocessed units, not for treating any medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device, described as a "process indicator," is intended to demonstrate exposure to a process and distinguish between processed and unprocessed units. This function relates to quality control or process validation rather than diagnosing a medical condition in a patient.

The provided text is a 510(k) summary template with most sections marked as "Not Found" or "Not Applicable". It only describes the intended use of "process indicators" which are typically physical items used to demonstrate exposure to a process (like sterilization). Without a device description, it's impossible to determine if this is a software-only device or a physical indicator.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to demonstrate exposure to a process and distinguish between processed and unprocessed units. This is a quality control or process monitoring function, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples to determine the state of health or disease.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description lacks any mention of:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing information about a patient's health or disease status
    • Diagnostic testing

The device described is a process indicator, which is a type of quality control tool used in various settings (like sterilization or manufacturing) to confirm that a specific process has occurred.

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.

(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
