More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard dental operative unit with mechanical and electrical controls, with no mention of AI or ML features, image processing, or data analysis capabilities typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

No.
The device is a dental operative unit, providing power and serving as a base for other dental devices, rather than directly diagnosing, treating, or preventing a disease or condition itself.

No

The device is described as a Dental Operative Unit that supplies power and serves as a base for dental devices. Its components (treatment chair, dentist's element, assistant's element, dental lamp) facilitate dental procedures but do not diagnose conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a treatment chair, dentist's element, assistant's element, and dental lamp.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the product is a "Dental Operative Unit with accessories that is intended to supply power to, and serve as a base for dental devices and accessories." It's used for supporting and powering dental procedures, not for examining specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The components listed (Treatment Chair, Dentist's Element, Assistant's Element, Dental Lamp) are all physical components used in a dental procedure environment. None of them are designed for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any features related to sample collection, preparation, analysis, or interpretation of results from biological specimens, which are core functions of an IVD.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a general dental device used for supporting clinical procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
