The description details a purely mechanical device with manual operation and no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.
No
The device is described as a surgical instrument intended to lift and position the heart, not to treat a disease or condition. It is a tool for a surgical procedure, not a therapy itself.
No
The device is described as a "surgical instrument intended to lift and position the heart during cardiac surgery," not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a balloon, shaft, hand pump, air tube, and valves, indicating it is a hardware device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "lift and position the heart during cardiac surgery." This is a surgical instrument used in vivo (within the living body) to manipulate an organ.
- Device Description: The description details a physical tool (balloon, shaft, pump) used for mechanical manipulation.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition. IVDs are used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the living body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
This device is clearly a surgical tool used during a procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

Device Description
The CTS Heart-LIFT Balloon Positioner consists of a manually inflatable, latex-free balloon attached to a malleable shaft. The balloon is inflated using a hand pump, which is attached via a flexible air tube to the proximal end of the malleable shaft. A pressure release valve allows deflation of the balloon. There also is a pressure relief valve to prevent over-inflation.
