So far as I know. It was the very first (about 1971) and still the most basic anti-pollution device. It is also the easiest to replace (takes 30 seconds in most vehicles), and the easiest to "fix". Remove the PCV valve, give it a good shot of spray carburetor cleaner, and shake it. If you hear a rattle when you shake it, it's fine - put it back, you don't need to replace it yet.
A few vehicles, Jeep 4.0L inline 6 for example, use a fixed size orifice instead of a PCV valve.

Positive Crankcase Ventilation Answer 2: The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system reduces hydrocarbon emissions by scavenging crankcase vapors. It does this by circulating fresh air from the air cleaner through the crankcase, where it mixes with blow-by gases and is then rerouted through a PCV valve to the intake manifold. - Haynes Repair Manual #36071
