No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical and do not mention any computational or analytical capabilities, let alone AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device is described as a "Trial Transfer Catheter" intended to "assess advancement through the cervical canal and positioning of the uterus," which indicates a diagnostic or assessment purpose rather than a therapeutic one. It facilitates a procedure but does not directly treat a condition.
No
The device is intended to "assess advancement through the cervical canal and positioning of the uterus," which is a procedural assessment rather than the diagnosis of a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter with specific dimensions, materials (polypropylene), and features (Luer Lock adapter, graduation markings), indicating it is a hardware medical device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Wallace Trial Transfer Catheter is a device used within the body (in vivo) to physically assess the cervical canal and uterus. It is a tool for physical examination and measurement, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "assess[ing] advancement through the cervical canal and positioning of the uterus." This is a mechanical assessment, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
- Device Description: The description details a physical catheter designed for insertion and measurement, not for collecting or analyzing biological material.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Wallace Trial Transfer Catheter is a medical device used for in-vivo assessment, not an in-vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Wallace Trial Transfer Catheter is a sterile single-use device intended to assess advancement through the cervical canal and positioning of the uterus.

Device Description
The Wallace Trial Transfer Catheter is a single use, sterile, disposable, soft, and flexible catheter with a unique round smooth distal end. The tip has a blind/closed end. The device has an overall length of 23cm including a, polypropylene Luer Lock adapter that is affixed at its proximal end. The inner catheter is a clear tube with a 1.8-mm outer diameter and a 0.8 inner diameter that is uniform throughout its length. An outer sheath with a 2.3-mm outer diameter surrounds this inner catheter. The distal 0.1-cm of length gradually tapers, leaving the distal 5 cm of the inner catheter exposed. The proximal circumferences of the outer sheath and inner catheter are molded directly into the distal end of the Luer Lock adapter. Five black graduation markings are located on the distal portion of the outer sheath at 1-cm increments to indicate the degree of advancement into the cervix. Four black graduation markings are located on the proximal portion of the inner catheter at 1 cm increments indicate the degree of advancement into the uterus.

§ 884.6110 Assisted reproduction catheters.
(a)
Identification. Assisted reproduction catheters are devices used in in vitro fertilization (IVF), gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT), or other assisted reproduction procedures to introduce or remove gametes, zygote(s), preembryo(s), and/or embryo(s) into or from the body. This generic type of device may include catheters, cannulae, introducers, dilators, sheaths, stylets, and component parts.(b)
