The summary describes an updated control system for a steam sterilizer with added functionality and ease of use, but there is no mention of AI or ML technology.
No.
The device is a sterilizer intended for use in healthcare facilities to sterilize instruments, linens, and liquids. Its function is to prepare items for use, not to directly treat or diagnose a patient.
No
Explanation: The device is a sterilizer intended for sterilizing medical instruments, linens, and liquids. It is not used for diagnosing medical conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly states it is a series of steam sterilizers, which are hardware devices used for sterilization. The update mentioned is to the control system, which is a component of the hardware device, not a standalone software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to sterilize surgical instruments, linens, and liquids. This is a process performed on items outside the human body to make them sterile.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health.
- No Mention of Biological Specimens: The description and intended use do not mention the analysis of any biological specimens.
Therefore, the Castle® Series 100HC Steam Sterilizer is a sterilization device, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
