None

No
The summary describes a humidifier, a device that typically does not incorporate AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets which would indicate the presence of such technology.

No
A therapeutic device is used to treat a disease or condition. This device is intended to add moisture and warm breathing gases, which is a supportive function rather than a direct treatment.

No

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the device is "intended to add moisture and to warm the breathing gases for administration to a patient." This describes a therapeutic or supportive function, not a diagnostic one. Diagnostic devices are used to identify or monitor medical conditions.

No

The intended use describes a device that adds moisture and warms breathing gases, which inherently requires hardware components to perform these functions. The summary does not mention any software-only aspects.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "add moisture and to warm the breathing gases for administration to a patient." This describes a device that interacts directly with the patient's breathing system, not a device used to examine specimens taken from the body (which is the core function of an IVD).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
    • Using reagents or assays

The device described is a therapeutic device used to condition breathing gases for patient comfort and potentially clinical benefit, not a diagnostic tool.
