The description focuses on mechanical and electronic functions (suction, fluid collection, sterilization, volume measurement, smoke evacuation triggered by infrared signal) and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.
No
Explanation: The device is intended to collect and sterilize surgical fluid waste and evacuate smoke. It does not treat, diagnose, cure, or prevent disease.
No
The device description clearly states its purpose is to collect and sterilize surgical fluid waste and evacuate smoke, and it does not mention any function related to diagnosing a disease, condition, or health status.
No
The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a Rover unit, Docking Station, Infrared Transmitter, basin, vacuum blower motor, and control panel. While software is mentioned as being tested, the device is fundamentally a hardware system with integrated software.
Based on the provided information, the Neptune Waste Management System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to collect and sterilize surgical fluid waste and evacuate smoke. This is a system for managing waste generated during surgical procedures, not for performing tests on biological samples to diagnose or monitor a patient's condition.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components and functions related to fluid collection, smoke evacuation, and suction. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic, monitoring, or screening information
- Using reagents or assays
- Measuring analytes or biomarkers
The Neptune Waste Management System is a surgical support device designed to manage waste and improve the surgical environment. It does not perform diagnostic testing.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Neptune Waste Management System is intended to be used in the Operating Room, Pathology, Surgical Centers and Doctor's Offices to collect and sterilize surgical fluid waste as well as collect smoke generated from electrocautery or laser devices.

Device Description
The Neptune Waste Management System (hereafter referred to as the Neptune System) collects and evacuates surgical fluid waste as well as smoke generated from lasers and electro-cautery devices. The Neptune System also provides its own independent suction capability, in lieu of wall suction, and can electronically measure fluid volume output. The Neptune System is a closed system. It replaces vacuum canisters and reduces the solid waste that is generated by the use of suction canisters.
The Neptune System includes two pieces of equipment; a Rover unit and the Docking Station. The Rover has an accessory, the Infrared Transmitter, to actuate the Rover's smoke evacuation capability.
The Rover incorporates a 20 liter basin for the collection of fluid waste and can evacuate smoke generated from electro-cautery and laser devices through a variety of disposable tubing kits. The Rover's basin features volume markings and a built-in electronic volume meter. The Rover's manifold can handle up to four suction lines. The Rover features a vacuum blower motor that is used to evacuate smoke. The vacuum blower motor can also be used as an independent source of suction.
The Docking Station's control panel incorporates three switches that allow for simple user interaction and control of the process. A series of voice alarms provides user instructions for ease of use.
The Infrared Transmitter attaches onto the power cord of a laser or an electrocautery device. When a laser or electro-cautery device is turned on, an infrared signal is sent that activates the Rover's smoke evacuation capability.
