The description focuses on the mechanical components and intended use for guidewire introduction, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
The device is described as a "Safety Needle with Introducer" used for guidewire placement during gastrointestinal procedures, which is an interventional tool rather than a therapeutic device.
No
The device is intended for guidewire introduction during gastrointestinal procedures, which is an interventional/therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components (Safety Needle, Peelable Splitable Introducer) and discusses physical characteristics like length and size, indicating it is a hardware 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 for guidewire introduction during gastrointestinal procedures. This is a surgical/interventional procedure performed directly on the patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
- Device Description: The device is a needle and introducer, used for physical access and placement of a guidewire within the body. This is a medical device used for a procedural purpose, not for analyzing a biological sample.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Device Description
This device, with the exception of length, is identical to the TFX Medical Safety Needle with Introducer cleared by the FDA in K000665. The working length of the needle has been increased, due to the intended gastrointestinal use, and will be available in 2F - 6F sizes with lengths ranging between 2.50″ - 4.0″. The Modified TFX Medical Safety Needle with Introducer will allow placement of guidewires ranging from 0.015″ - 0.052″. The variance in sizes and lengths is due to specific procedure, physician preference and patient body type.
This product consists of two components:
- Safety Needle (Needle with Passive Sharps Protection)- The Safety Needle, which has the same blunter technology the Bio-Plexus, Punctur-Guard® Blood Collection as needle, is manufactured under the QSR Design Control The guidance document, "Supplementary requirements. Guidance on the Content of Premarket Notification Submissions for Medical Devices with Sharps (510 (k) | Injury Protection Features", was used in the design and verification of the function of the Safety Needle.
- Peelable Splitable Introducer- This introducer is identical to the existing introducer sold by TFX Medical, which was cleared under K920908.
