No
The summary describes a device that measures muscle contraction using accelerometry and acts as a nerve stimulator. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the provided text.
Yes
The device objectively monitors the degree of neuromuscular block in anesthetized patients and can be used as a peripheral nerve stimulator or nerve location device, indicating a therapeutic or diagnostic function in patient care.
Yes
The device is described as a "neuromuscular transmission monitor capable of estimating the degree of neuromuscular block in anesthetized patients," and can measure "muscle contraction following stimulation of the respective motorneuron," which indicates it is used to assess a patient's physiological state to assist in diagnosis or monitoring.
No
The device description explicitly states that the complete package contains hardware components such as an acceleration transducer and a surface electrode cable, in addition to the TOF-Watch S device itself.
Based on the provided information, the TOF-Watch S device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The TOF-Watch S device directly interacts with the patient's body (stimulating nerves and measuring muscle contraction) rather than analyzing a sample taken from the patient.
- The intended use and device description clearly describe a device used for monitoring neuromuscular transmission in anesthetized patients. This is a direct physiological measurement, not an in vitro test.
Therefore, the TOF-Watch S falls under the category of a medical device used for physiological monitoring and stimulation, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The TOF-Watch S device can be used as an objective monitor using accelerometry for measuring the muscle contraction following stimulation of the respective motorneuron, as a peripheral nerve stimulator (without the objective measuring function) for subjective monitoring or as a nerve location device.
