The description focuses on mechanical tissue resection and ablation controlled by the surgeon, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.
Yes
The device is used for the resection and ablation of varicose veins, indicating a therapeutic purpose to treat a medical condition.
No
The device is a surgical tool used for the resection and ablation of varicose veins, which is a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function. Its purpose is to remove targeted tissue, not to identify or analyze medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical blade with a rotating inner blade and suction mechanism, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood, tissue, and urine, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological state, state of health, or disease or congenital abnormality.
- Device Function: The Dyonics Varicose Vein Ablation Blade is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient's body during a procedure (ambulatory phlebectomy). It physically resects and ablates tissue.
- Lack of Specimen Examination: The device does not examine specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Dyonics Varicose Vein Ablation Blade is a surgical device, not an IVD.

Device Description
The design of the blades offers required precision for varicose vein ablation by controlling the location and extent of tissue resection. Target tissue is drawn into the cutting window of the blade under suction while the rotating inner blade shears off the tissue. The location and extent of tissue removal is completely controlled by surgeon placement and rotary activation of the blade.
