No
The description focuses on the material and physical characteristics of silicone implants for chest augmentation and reconstruction, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is used for augmentation and reconstruction, which are cosmetic or structural modifications, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is described as an implant for augmenting or reconstructing the pectoralis, not for diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states the device is a physical implant made of silicone elastomers, intended for surgical implantation. It is not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Seare Biomedical Pectoralis Implants are silicone implants intended for surgical implantation into the body to augment the chest or reconstruct the pectoralis muscle. This is an in vivo (within the living body) application, not an in vitro test.

The provided information describes a surgically implanted medical device, not a diagnostic test performed on bodily samples.

§ 874.3620 Ear, nose, and throat synthetic polymer material.

(a)
Identification. Ear, nose, and throat synthetic polymer material is a device material that is intended to be implanted for use as a space-occupying substance in the reconstructive surgery of the head and neck. The device is used, for example, in augmentation rhinoplasty and in tissue defect closures in the esophagus. The device is shaped and formed by the suregon to conform to the patient's needs. This generic type of device is made of material such as polyamide mesh or foil and porous polyethylene.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Seare:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of September 30, 1998.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809 ); medical device reporting (reporting of
