No
The summary describes a simple mechanical syringe and explicitly states that AI, DNN, or ML are not mentioned.
No
The device is a syringe used for aspiration during diagnostic imaging procedures, not for treating a condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a syringe used during procedures, not for diagnosing conditions. Its purpose is to assist in angiographic or radiologic procedures which often follow a diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "polycarbonate piston syringe," which is a physical hardware component, not software.
Based on the provided information, the VACLOK Syringe is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for use by a cardiologist or radiologist during angiographic or radiologic procedures. These are procedures performed on the patient, not on samples taken from the patient for diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The description of a polycarbonate piston syringe modified for vacuum use aligns with a medical device used in procedures, not a device for testing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on testing samples.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The VACLOK Syringe's function is procedural, not diagnostic in the IVD sense.
