Intended Use
To facilitate the placement of balloon dilatation catheters during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and compatible stent devices.
Device Description
The HI-TORQUE PILOT™ Guide Wire with Hydrocoat Hydrophilic Coating is a guide wire with a maximum diameter of 0.0140" and is available in 175 cm and 190cm extendable lengths and a 300 cm exchange length. There are three HI-TORQUE PILOT™ Guide Wire designs with varying tip stiffness (i.e., HI-TORQUE PILOT™ 50, HI-TORQUE PILOT™ 150, and HI-TORQUE PILOT™ 200 Guide Wires). The distal tip of the guide wire is available either as a straight tip that is shapeable, or as a pre-shaped "J". The straight shape allows the physician to shape the tip according to his/her preference; the J shapes provide the physician the convenience of a J shape without manual shaping. Brachial and femoral markers are located on the proximal segment of the 190 cm and 300 cm guide wires to indicate when the tip of the guide wire is about to exit the guide catheter. The proximal section of the wire is coated with polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE). The distal, polyurethane-covered area, of the wire is coated with hydrocoat hydrophilic coating.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a guide wire, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
This device is a guide wire used to facilitate the placement of other devices (balloon dilatation catheters and stent devices) during angioplasty procedures, rather than directly treating a condition itself.

No
The intended use is to facilitate the placement of other devices during procedures, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical guide wire with specific materials, coatings, and lengths, indicating it is a hardware device, not software only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description and intended use of the HI-TORQUE PILOT™ Guide Wire clearly indicate it is a device used within the body to facilitate a medical procedure (angioplasty and stent placement). It is a tool for navigating blood vessels, not for analyzing biological samples.

The device is an invasive medical device used in interventional cardiology and peripheral vascular procedures.

Dear Ms. Brown:

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
