Intended Use
The Recovery Filter System is indicated for use in the prevention of recurrent pulmonary embolism via permanent placement in the vena cava in the following situations: - -Pulmonary thromboembolism when anticoagulants are contraindicated. - -Failure of anticoagulant therapy for thromboembolic disease - Emergency treatment following massive pulmonary embolism where anticipated benefits of conventional therapy are reduced. - -Chronic, recurrent pulmonary embolism where anticoagulant therapy has failed or is contraindicated. - -Recovery filter may be removed according to the instructions supplied in the Section labeled: Optional Procedure for Filter Removal. Data from removals in a 58 patient study suggests that the device can be safely removed (mean of 60 days; range 1-161 days).
Device Description
The Recovery Filter System consists of a nitinol vena cava filter and a delivery system. The filter has two levels of filtration and is prepackaged in a storage tube. The delivery system consists of a 7 Fr ID introducer sheath and dilator and a pusher system. Both components of the system are packaged in Tyvek/film pouches.

No
The summary describes a physical medical device (vena cava filter) and its delivery system, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is a medical intervention aimed at preventing recurrent pulmonary embolism, which is a therapeutic goal.

No

This device is a vena cava filter, which is an implantable medical device used to prevent pulmonary embolism. Its function is therapeutic (prevention of embolism), not diagnostic (identifying a disease or condition).

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a nitinol vena cava filter and a delivery system, which are physical hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the prevention of recurrent pulmonary embolism by being permanently placed in the vena cava. This is a therapeutic intervention performed within the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical filter and delivery system designed for implantation.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic information. This device is a medical implant used for treatment.

Summary of Performance Studies

The safety of removal was addressed in a series of animal and clinical testing. The results of animal testing (including histology) and the confirmatory experience of 58 patients (mean 60 days to removal; range 1-161 days) show that the Recovery Filter may be safely retrieved and that the benefit of this procedure outweighs the potential associated risks.

§ 870.3375 Cardiovascular intravascular filter.

(a)
Identification. A cardiovascular intravascular filter is an implant that is placed in the inferior vena cava for the purpose of preventing pulmonary thromboemboli (blood clots generated in the lower limbs and broken loose into the blood stream) from flowing into the right side of the heart and the pulmonary circulation.(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are:(1) “Use of International Standards Organization's ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ” and
(2) FDA's:
