The summary describes a simple physical device for delivering allergens and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would suggest the use of such technologies.
No
The device is used for diagnostic purposes (allergen patch testing) rather than treating a condition.
Yes
The device is used for performing patch testing, which is a diagnostic procedure to identify allergens.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "plastic tray with shallow indentations or chambers," indicating a physical hardware component.
Based on the provided information, the IQ Chamber is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The IQ Chamber is used to apply allergens to the surface of the skin, not to analyze a sample taken from the body.
- The intended use is for performing patch testing. Patch testing is a method of applying substances to the skin to see if a reaction occurs, which is a form of in vivo (within the living body) testing, not in vitro (in glass or outside the living body) testing.
- The device description focuses on a physical tray for holding allergens. This aligns with a device used for direct application to the skin, not for processing or analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the IQ Chamber is a device used in a diagnostic procedure, but it is not an IVD itself.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The IQ Chamber is an allergen delivery system which places allergens or allergen mixes in contact with the surface of the skin for the purpose of performing patch testing.
