The intended use states the device is an "accessory to cleaning a toothbrush," which is not a diagnostic function.
No
The provided 510(k) summary lacks sufficient information about the device description and its components to definitively determine if it is a software-only medical device. The intended use as an "accessory to cleaning a toothbrush" also suggests a potential hardware component or interaction.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "as an accessory to cleaning a toothbrush." This clearly indicates the device is used for cleaning a physical object (a toothbrush) and not for examining specimens derived from the human body to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document lacks any mention of typical IVD characteristics such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information
- Measuring biomarkers
- Using reagents or assays
Therefore, based solely on the provided text, this device falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic.
