Intended Use
The Matrix™ Detachable Coils have the same indications for use as the predicate GDC" coils. Matrix™ Detachable Coils are intended for embolization of those intracranial aneurysms that because of their morphology, their location, or the patient's general medical condition - are considered by the treating neurosurgical team to be: a) very high risk for management by traditional operative techniques, or, b) inoperable, and for embolization of other neuro vascular abnormalities such as arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous fistulae. The Matrix™ Detachable Coils are also intended for arterial and venous embolizations in the peripheral vasculature.
Device Description
The Matrix™ Detachable Coil system consists of the following, each of which is sold seperately: - · GDCTM SynerGTM Power Supply - · Matrix™ Detachable Coil attached to a delivery wire - · Set of GDCTM SynerGTM connecting cables - Patient return electrode - · Two 9-volt batteries The coil is detached by electrolytically dissolving a small portion of the delivery wire upon desired placement of the coil in the anatomy. Matrix™ Detachable Coils are manufactured from platinum wire, which is first wound into a primary coil and then formed into a secondary helical shape. Coating the platinum coil is a proprietary biocompatible absorbable polymer mixture. Coils are attached to a delivery wire, which consists of a ground stainless-steel core wire with a stainless-steel coil welded at the distal end and a Teflon® outer jacket. The delivery wire is identical to that employed for the predicate GDCTM Coils cleared under K001083. The GDCTM SynerGTM power supply is a battery-operated, selfcontained unit designed to initiate and control the electrolytic detachment of a GDC™ Coil or Matrix™ Detachable Coil inside an aneurysm. The GDC™ SynerG™ Power Supply is designed to apply a constant current through the GDC™ System and to detect when coil detachment has occurred. It maintains a constant current by: 1) sensing the amount of resistance to current flow through the Matrix™ Detachable Coil, and 2) adjusting the voltage needed to maintain the desired current setting. It is also designed to identify subtle changes in the way current is flowing through the Matrix™ Detachable Coil and to recognize those changes, which indicate detachment. Once those patterns are identified, the GDCTM SynerGTM power supply signals detachment and stops the flow of current through the Matrix™ Detachable Coil.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on the mechanical and electrical properties of the coil and power supply, with no mention of AI or ML for image analysis, decision support, or any other function. The power supply uses basic electrical sensing and pattern recognition for detachment, not complex AI/ML algorithms.

Yes

The device is intended for embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other neurovascular abnormalities, which is a medical treatment.

No

Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that the Matrix™ Detachable Coils are for embolization (treatment) of aneurysms and other neurovascular abnormalities, not for diagnosis. The power supply is for detaching the coil, which is part of the therapeutic procedure.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components, including the coils themselves, a power supply, cables, and batteries. The software component (within the power supply) controls the detachment process, but it is integral to a system that includes significant hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other neurovascular abnormalities. This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's anatomy.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical coil designed to be placed within blood vessels to block blood flow. It is used in conjunction with a power supply for detachment.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, while this device is a therapeutic implant used within the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Matrix™ Detachable Coils are intended for embolizing certain intracranial aneurysms that - because of their morphology, their location, or the patient's general medical condition - are considered by the treating neurosurgical team to be:

b) inoperable,

and for embolizing other vascular malformations such as arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous fistulae of the neurovasculature.

MatrixTM Detachable Coils are also intended for arterial and venous embolizations in the peripheral vasculature.

Device Description

The Matrix™ Detachable Coil system consists of the following, each of which is sold seperately:

  • · GDCTM SynerGTM Power Supply
  • · Matrix™ Detachable Coil attached to a delivery wire
  • · Set of GDCTM SynerGTM connecting cables
  • Patient return electrode
  • · Two 9-volt batteries

The coil is detached by electrolytically dissolving a small portion of the delivery wire upon desired placement of the coil in the anatomy.

Matrix™ Detachable Coils are manufactured from platinum wire, which is first wound into a primary coil and then formed into a secondary helical shape. Coating the platinum coil is a proprietary biocompatible absorbable polymer mixture.

Coils are attached to a delivery wire, which consists of a ground stainless-steel core wire with a stainless-steel coil welded at the distal end and a Teflon® outer jacket. The delivery wire is identical to that employed for the predicate GDCTM Coils cleared under K001083.

The GDCTM SynerGTM power supply is a battery-operated, selfcontained unit designed to initiate and control the electrolytic detachment of a GDC™ Coil or Matrix™ Detachable Coil inside an aneurysm.

Each time the power supply is turned on, the unit defaults to the 1.0 mA current setting. Pressing the "Current" switch one time changes the setting to the 2.0 mA current setting; pressing a second time changes the setting to 0.5 mA; pressing a third time returns the unit to the default 1.0 mA setting. Each time the switch is pressed, the current display flashes the new current setting.

The GDC™ SynerG™ Power Supply is designed to apply a constant current through the GDC™ System and to detect when coil detachment has occurred. It maintains a constant current by:

  1. sensing the amount of resistance to current flow through the Matrix™ Detachable Coil, and

  2. adjusting the voltage needed to maintain the desired current setting. It is also designed to identify subtle changes in the way current is flowing through the Matrix™ Detachable Coil and to recognize those changes, which indicate detachment.

Once those patterns are identified, the GDCTM SynerGTM power supply signals detachment and stops the flow of current through the Matrix™ Detachable Coil.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
