The device description clearly identifies it as a physical catheter, which is a hardware component.

Based on the provided information, the Vygon LIFECATH-PICC (PUR) Catheter is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for administering substances directly into a patient's bloodstream (I.V. therapy). This is an in vivo (within a living organism) application.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter, which is a medical device used for accessing the vascular system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVDs are devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not devices inserted into the body for therapeutic purposes.
