The summary describes a temperature-controlled work station for gametes and embryos, focusing on environmental control (temperature, humidity, pH, sterile air). There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would indicate the use of such technologies.
No
The device is intended for maintaining temperature, humidity, and pH of gametes and/or embryos, which suggests a supportive or environmental control function rather than directly treating a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a workstation for maintaining temperature, humidity, and pH of gametes and/or embryos. Its intended use is for maintenance, not for diagnosing any condition or disease.
No
The description explicitly states the device is a "Work Station" intended for maintaining temperature, humidity, and pH of gametes/embryos, and is flushed with air. This indicates a physical hardware device with environmental control capabilities, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, the K-SYSTEMS Work Station is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to maintain the temperature, humidity, and pH environment for gametes and/or embryos. This is a device that supports the handling and manipulation of biological samples, but it does not perform a diagnostic test on those samples.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The K-SYSTEMS Work Station does not analyze the gametes or embryos to provide any diagnostic information about them or the patient.
The device is more likely classified as a laboratory or clinical support device used in procedures like In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The K-SYSTEMS Work Station is intended for maintaining temperature of gametes and/or embryos at or near body temperature. The work station also includes features to humidify and maintain a constant pH environment for the gametes and/or embryos. Additionally the work station is flushed with steribenair.

§ 884.6120 Assisted reproduction accessories.
(a)
Identification. Assisted reproduction accessories are a group of devices used during assisted reproduction procedures, in conjunction with assisted reproduction needles and/or assisted reproduction catheters, to aspirate, incubate, infuse, and/or maintain temperature. This generic type of device may include:(1) Powered aspiration pumps used to provide low flow, intermittent vacuum for the aspiration of eggs (ova).
(2) Syringe pumps (powered or manual) used to activate a syringe to infuse or aspirate small volumes of fluid during assisted reproduction procedures.
(3) Collection tube warmers, used to maintain the temperature of egg (oocyte) collection tubes at or near body temperature. A dish/plate/microscope stage warmer is a device used to maintain the temperature of the egg (oocyte) during manipulation.
(4) Embryo incubators, used to store and preserve gametes and/or embryos at or near body temperature.
(5) Cryopreservation instrumentation and devices, used to contain, freeze, and maintain gametes and/or embryos at an appropriate freezing temperature.
(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (design specifications, labeling requirements, and clinical testing). The device, when it is a simple embryo incubator with only temperature, gas, and humidity control; a syringe pump; a collection tube warmer; a dish/plate/microscope stage warmer; a controlled-rate cryopreservation freezer; or an assisted reproduction laminar flow workstation is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.

Re: K991229 Henning Knudsen Engineering Ltd. A/S K-SYSTEMS Work Station Dated: April 7, 1999 Received: April 12, 1999 Regulatory Class: Il 21 CFR §884.6120/Procode: 85 MQG
Dear Mr. Møllenbach:
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, Drug, 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 requlation may result in requlatory 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.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compiiance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification"(21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597, or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
Sincerely yours,
