No
The device description and intended use are for a simple acupuncture needle with a copper handle, with no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities.
Yes
The device is used to perform acupuncture, which is a therapeutic treatment.
No
The device is described as an acupuncture needle used to "pierce the skin in the practice of acupuncture". Its function is to facilitate the delivery of acupuncture treatment, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical needle made of stainless steel and copper wire, which is a hardware component.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Device Intended Use: The intended use of this device is "To pierce the skin in the practice of acupuncture." This is a direct interaction with the body for a therapeutic purpose (acupuncture), not for analyzing a specimen outside the body.
- Device Description: The description details a needle for piercing the skin, not a device for analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device clearly falls outside the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.
