No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The intended use and device description (though not found) suggest a simpler verification mechanism.

No.
The device is designed to assist verification of placement of an endotracheal tube, acting as an adjunct to assess tracheal intubation. It is a diagnostic aid, not a device that provides therapeutic treatment itself.

Yes
The device is designed to "assist verification of placement of the endotracheal tube in the trachea," which is a diagnostic function to determine the correct location of a medical device within the body.

Unknown

The provided summary lacks a "Device Description" section, which is crucial for determining if the device is software-only. Without this information, it's impossible to ascertain if the Ventlab Verify II includes hardware components in addition to any potential software.

Based on the provided information, the Ventlab Verify II is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to assist in verifying the placement of an endotracheal tube in the trachea. This is a procedure performed directly on a patient's airway, not on a sample of biological material taken from the body.
  • 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.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information about a patient's health status based on analysis of biological samples

The Ventlab Verify II appears to be a device used during a medical procedure to assess the location of a medical device (the endotracheal tube) within the body. This falls under the category of a medical device used for diagnosis or monitoring during a procedure, but not an in vitro diagnostic.

Dear Mr. Smith:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Druq, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
