No
The device is a simple strap for securing medical monitors and the summary contains no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is described as a strap for securing a uterine contraction monitor, which itself is a diagnostic device used to track contractions and baby's heartbeat. The strap does not provide any therapeutic benefit, but rather facilitates the use of a diagnostic device.

No
Explanation: The device is a strap used to secure a uterine contraction monitor. It does not perform any diagnostic function itself. The diagnostic function is performed by the separate monitor it secures.

No

The device description clearly states the product is made of "stretch fabric material" and is a physical strap used to secure a monitor. This indicates a hardware component, not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The described device is a strap used to secure a uterine contraction monitor to a patient's abdomen. Its function is purely mechanical and external to the body. It does not analyze any biological samples or provide diagnostic information based on such analysis.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to physically secure a monitoring device, not to perform a diagnostic test.

Therefore, this device falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic.
