Intended Use
The Safe-Steer™ Guide Wire System is indicated for use in facilitating the placement of catheters used in percutaneous interventions in native coronary arteries with total occlusions.
Device Description
The Safe-Steer™ Guide Wire System consists of the following: - Safe-Steer™ 0.014" Guide Wire ● - Safe-Steer™ OCR Unit with Display Monitor . The Safe-Steer™ Guide Wire is similar to a conventional 0.014" coronary guide wire, except that it incorporates an optic fiber, which runs the length of the guide wire. The Safe-Steer™ Guide Wire is connected to the OCR Unit, providing information on the Display Monitor of the location of the distal tip relative to the vessel wall.

No
The description focuses on an optical fiber for location sensing and does not mention AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No
A therapeutic device is one that treats a disease or condition. This device is a guide wire system that facilitates the placement of catheters for percutaneous interventions; it does not directly treat the condition itself.

No
The Safe-Steer™ Guide Wire System facilitates the placement of catheters. It provides information on the location of the distal tip relative to the vessel wall, which aids in guiding an intervention rather than diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a guide wire and an OCR unit with a display monitor, which are hardware components.

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 such as blood, urine, or tissue taken from the human body to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The Safe-Steer™ Guide Wire System is a medical device used in vivo (inside the body) to facilitate the placement of catheters during percutaneous interventions in coronary arteries. It provides real-time information about the guide wire's location relative to the vessel wall.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze any biological samples taken from the patient. It interacts directly with the patient's anatomy.

Therefore, the Safe-Steer™ Guide Wire System is a therapeutic/interventional medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Misajon:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device we neve reviewed your be device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4646. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
