The summary describes a standard guidewire with materials and features consistent with existing devices, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or image processing.
No
The device is a guidewire used to position other medical devices, not provide therapy itself.
No
Explanation: The device is a guidewire used to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices. It does not perform any diagnostic function. Its purpose is for interventional procedures, not for identifying diseases or conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a guidewire made of physical materials (stainless steel, nitinol, platinum) and has physical dimensions (diameter, length). It is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the guidewires are for "percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the coronary and peripheral vasculature." This describes a device used within the body for a medical procedure, not a device used to test samples outside the body (which is the definition of an IVD).
- Device Description: The description details the physical characteristics and materials of a guidewire used in interventional procedures.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for interventional procedures, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
These guidewires are intended for use in percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the coronary and peripheral vasculature.

(2) Device Name: Guidewire Trade Name: No proprietary name has been established. Classification Name: Wire, Guide, Catheter Classification Code: DQX
-
(3) Substantial Equivalency: Galt Medical Corp. guidewires (Mandrel Type) are substantially equivalent to guidewires from K982559.
-
(4) Device Description: The materials of construction stainless steel, nitinol, platinum are consistent with guidewires presently in commercial distribution. The wires are available straight, or with "J" end. The wires range from .014" diameter through .025" diameter and lengths from 20cm. to 360 cm. The wires may also be PTFE coated.
These guidewires are intended for use in percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the coronary and peripheral vasculature.
- (5) Technological Characteristics: Galt Medical's guidewires have the same indications for use and are otherwise technically the same as the predicate devices.
- (6) Non-Clinical Tests: The results of these tests demonstrated that the functionality and performance characteristics of the guidewires are comparable to the currently marketed guidewires. Tests performed include: tensile strength and torqueability.
- (7) Conclusions: Based on the information presented in this 510(k) premarket notification. Galt Medical's guidewires are considered substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Catlin:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the 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 (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
