The device description details a mechanical shunt system for fluid drainage, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any components that would typically incorporate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
Yes
The device is described as a medical device (shunt) intended to treat specific medical conditions (chylothorax, intractable pleural effusion) by draining fluid from the pleural space, which directly impacts a patient's health.
No
The device is a shunt designed to treat chylothorax and pleural effusion by transferring fluid from the pleural space to the peritoneum, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as silicone catheters, a valved pump chamber, and polyester cuffs, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to manage pleural effusions and chylothorax by shunting fluid from the pleural space to the abdominal cavity. This is a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The device is a physical implantable or external system of catheters and a pump chamber designed to move fluid within the body. It does not involve the examination of specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic results based on laboratory testing.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens such as blood, urine, or tissue in vitro to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is purely mechanical and therapeutic.

Device Description
The Denver Pleural Effusion Shunt with External Pump Chamber has three major components:
-
- A 15.5 Fr silicone catheter, which is implanted in the pleural space and collects the accumulated pleural effusion fluid. In the shunt with the externalized pump chamber, the catheter is tunneled subcutaneously and incorporates a polyester cuff.
-
- A valved pump chamber, which is either implanted or remains external to the body. The patient compresses the pump chamber to transfer fluid from the pleural space to the peritoneum.
- A second 15.5 Fr. silicone catheter, similar to the first, which terminates in the abdominal cav-3. ity. This catheter also bears a polyester cuff in the shunt with the externalized pump chamber.
Except for the polyester cuff, all components of the shunt are made of silicone rubber.

§ 876.5955 Peritoneo-venous shunt.
(a)
Identification. A peritoneo-venous shunt is an implanted device that consists of a catheter and a pressure activated one-way valve. The catheter is implanted with one end in the peritoneal cavity and the other in a large vein. This device enables ascitic fluid in the peritoneal cavity to flow into the venous system for the treatment of intractable ascites.(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are FDA's:(1) “Use of International Standard ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices—Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ”
(2) “510(k) Sterility Review Guidance of 2/12/90 (K90-1),” and
(3) Backflow specification and testing to prevent reflux of blood into the shunt.

This 510(k) summary was prepared on March 30, 2001.
Device Identification
This special 510(k) is for a modification to the Denver Pleural Effusion Shunt and Pleural Effusion Shunt with External Pump Chamber. The modification is a change in the supplier of the silicone tubing used to fabricate the catheters. The new tubing is very similar to the existing tubing, and the modified devices have been found to be substantially equivalent to the original devices.
Intended Use
The Denver Pleural Effusion Shunt with external pump chamber is used to palliate symptoms of recurrent pleural effusion, an accumulation of fluid in the cavity around the lungs.
Device Description
The Denver Pleural Effusion Shunt with External Pump Chamber has three major components:
-
- A 15.5 Fr silicone catheter, which is implanted in the pleural space and collects the accumulated pleural effusion fluid. In the shunt with the externalized pump chamber, the catheter is tunneled subcutaneously and incorporates a polyester cuff.
-
- A valved pump chamber, which is either implanted or remains external to the body. The patient compresses the pump chamber to transfer fluid from the pleural space to the peritoneum.
- A second 15.5 Fr. silicone catheter, similar to the first, which terminates in the abdominal cav-3. ity. This catheter also bears a polyester cuff in the shunt with the externalized pump chamber.
Except for the polyester cuff, all components of the shunt are made of silicone rubber.
Summary of the change
The change that was the subject of the special 510(k) was a change in the silicone tubing used to manufacture the catheters. The original silicone tubing is no longer available. The specifications of the originl material have been matched as closely as possible. Testing has verified that the tubing bonds well to the other components of the shunts. Biocompatibility testing has been carried out on the raw elastomer of the silicone tubing and on the finished devices.
