The description focuses on a mechanical safety mechanism for a syringe and does not mention any AI or ML components.
No
The device is a syringe used for administering injections, which is a delivery mechanism for therapeutic agents, but it is not a therapeutic device itself.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a safety syringe for administering injections, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "piston syringe combined with a sharps Injury Prevention mechanism," indicating a physical hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the SuperGuard™ Safety Syringe is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the "administration of intramuscular and subcutaneous injections." This describes a device used to deliver substances into the body, not to perform tests on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical function of the syringe and its safety mechanism for preventing needle sticks. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Testing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in samples
- Providing diagnostic information
IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The SuperGuard™ Safety Syringe is a delivery device, not a diagnostic one.
