No
The summary describes a physical catheter and its accessories, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.

Yes
The device is intended for short-term central venous access for hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion, which are therapeutic procedures.

No
The device is described as a catheter for central venous access for "hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion," which are therapeutic and access procedures, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter made of polyurethane with lumens and extensions, indicating it is a hardware device, not software only.

Based on the provided information, the MAHURKAR® QPLUS® Catheter is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "short-term central venous access for hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for therapeutic and access purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed to be inserted into a vein.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests outside the body on biological samples. The MAHURKAR® QPLUS® Catheter is clearly designed for direct interaction with the patient's circulatory system.

§ 876.5540 Blood access device and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A blood access device and accessories is a device intended to provide access to a patient's blood for hemodialysis or other chronic uses. When used in hemodialysis, it is part of an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions and provides access to a patient's blood for hemodialysis. The device includes implanted blood access devices, nonimplanted blood access devices, and accessories for both the implanted and nonimplanted blood access devices.(1) The implanted blood access device is a prescription device and consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, or cannulae, which are surgically implanted in appropriate blood vessels, may come through the skin, and are intended to remain in the body for 30 days or more. This generic type of device includes various catheters, shunts, and connectors specifically designed to provide access to blood. Examples include single and double lumen catheters with cuff(s), fully subcutaneous port-catheter systems, and A-V shunt cannulae (with vessel tips). The implanted blood access device may also contain coatings or additives which may provide additional functionality to the device.
(2) The nonimplanted blood access device consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, cannulae or hollow needles, which are inserted into appropriate blood vessels or a vascular graft prosthesis (§§ 870.3450 and 870.3460), and are intended to remain in the body for less than 30 days. This generic type of device includes fistula needles, the single needle dialysis set (coaxial flow needle), and the single needle dialysis set (alternating flow needle).
(3) Accessories common to either type include the shunt adaptor, cannula clamp, shunt connector, shunt stabilizer, vessel dilator, disconnect forceps, shunt guard, crimp plier, tube plier, crimp ring, joint ring, fistula adaptor, and declotting tray (including contents).
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for the implanted blood access device. The special controls for this device are:(i) Components of the device that come into human contact must be demonstrated to be biocompatible. Material names and specific designation numbers must be provided.
(ii) Performance data must demonstrate that the device performs as intended under anticipated conditions of use. The following performance characteristics must be tested:
(A) Pressure versus flow rates for both arterial and venous lumens, from the minimum flow rate to the maximum flow rate in 100 milliliter per minute increments, must be established. The fluid and its viscosity used during testing must be stated.
(B) Recirculation rates for both forward and reverse flow configurations must be established, along with the protocol used to perform the assay, which must be provided.
(C) Priming volumes must be established.
