The summary describes an ELISA test system for detecting antibodies, which is a standard laboratory technique and does not mention any AI or ML components.
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test system used to detect antibodies for the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, not to treat the condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the test system "is intended to be used as aid in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis."
No
The device is an ELISA test system, which is a laboratory-based assay involving physical reagents and equipment, not solely software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states:
