The document describes a chemical solution (PBS 1X) used in assisted reproductive technology procedures. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would incorporate AI or ML. The performance studies focus on biological assays and clinical use history, not algorithmic performance.
No.
The device is a solution used for manipulating gametes and embryos in assisted reproductive technology, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition in a patient. It is a support medium for procedures.
No
The device, Dulbecco's Phosphate Buffered Saline Solution (PBS 1X), is described as a medium intended for use in assisted reproductive technology procedures, specifically for sperm processing, oocyte retrieval, embryo transport, and as a support medium for embryo implantation. Its function is to facilitate and support biological processes, not to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "defined mixture of salts in a physiologic buffer," indicating a chemical solution, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as a medium for manipulating gametes and embryos in assisted reproductive technology procedures. This involves direct interaction with biological samples outside of the body for purposes like washing, retrieval, transport, and support.
- Device Description: The description reinforces its use as a medium for maintaining and transporting oocytes and embryos.
- Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: The intended use and description do not mention any diagnostic purpose, such as detecting a disease, condition, or state of health. It's a tool used in a procedure, not a test to provide diagnostic information.
- Performance Study: The performance study focuses on the product's functionality in supporting embryonic growth and the absence of toxic components, which aligns with its role as a culture/handling medium, not a diagnostic test.
IVDs are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device's function is procedural support for assisted reproduction, not diagnostic testing.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
PBS 1X is assayed by mouse embryo assay prior to its release to market. This assay assures that the product is both functional for its intended use, the support of embryonic growth, and that no toxic components are present in the formulation. PBS 1X has been used in a variety of clinical settings, for its intended use, for a number of years. In that time, the product has become one of the standard media used for the retrieval, maintenance and transport of human gametes and embryos.

§ 884.6180 Reproductive media and supplements.
(a)
Identification. Reproductive media and supplement are products that are used for assisted reproduction procedures. Media include liquid and powder versions of various substances that come in direct physical contact with human gametes or embryos (including water, acid solutions used to treat gametes or embryos, rinsing solutions, sperm separation media, supplements, or oil used to cover the media) for the purposes of preparation, maintenance, transfer or storage. Supplements are specific reagents added to media to enhance specific properties of the media (e.g., proteins, sera, antibiotics, etc.).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing). The device, when it is phosphate-buffered saline used for washing, and short-term handling and manipulation of gametes and embryos; culture oil used as an overlay for culture media containing gametes and embryos; and water for assisted reproduction applications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.

Intended Use:
PBS 1X is intended for use in assisted reproductive procedures that involve the manipulation, retrieval and transfer of gametes and embryos. These procedures include oocyte retrieval, short term oocyte maintenance and transfer of fertilized embryos during implantation.
Technological Characteristics:
Mature oocytes may be retrieved from the patient by flushing the patient's reproductive system with PBS 1X. The occytes may then be maintained for short periods of time in PBS 1X prior to assisted reproductive technology procedures, such as in vitro fertilization and ICSI. After fertilization, the embryo is then transferred to an appropriate culture and support medium for development in vitro. Once the desired stage of development has been achieved, usually three days post fertilization, the embryo is placed into fresh PBS 1X and transferred to the patient's uterus for implantation and development.
Performance Data:
PBS 1X is assayed by mouse embryo assay prior to its release to market. This assay assures that the product is both functional for its intended use, the support of embryonic growth, and that no toxic components are present in the formulation. PBS 1X has been used in a variety of clinical settings, for its intended use, for a number of years. In that time, the product has become one of the standard media used for the retrieval, maintenance and transport of human gametes and embryos.
Additional Information:
Mouse embryo testing will be performed as a condition of release for this product, as well as endotoxin and sterility testing. Results of all release assays

performed will be reported on a lot-specific certificate of analysis, and will be indicated on the labeling.
Conclusion:
The conclusion from performance testing, as well as a review of the historical information contained in professional literature shows that PBS 1X is suitable for its intended use, and meets the criteria outlined in the Notice of Final Rule, 63 FR 48428, Docket number 97N-0335.
