The device description focuses on the physical components (wires, generator, OCR unit) and their functions (RF energy for crossing, OCR for visualization). There is no mention of AI, ML, or any algorithms that would process data for decision-making or analysis beyond basic visualization.
Yes.
The device uses RF energy to assist in moving the wire tip through an occlusion to facilitate vascular interventions, which is a therapeutic action.
No
The device is designed to facilitate the placement of other devices by crossing total occlusions in the vascular system, using visualization for navigation and RF energy to assist movement. It is not used to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly lists multiple hardware components including crossing wires, an OCR unit with a display monitor, and an RF generator with a footswitch and interface cable.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition.
- Device Function: The Safe-Cross® Radio Frequency Total Occlusion Crossing System is a device used within the body (in vivo) to facilitate the placement of other devices during vascular interventions. It uses a guidewire, RF energy, and optical imaging to navigate through blockages in arteries.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: The device does not analyze any specimens derived from the human body. It directly interacts with the patient's vascular system.
Therefore, the Safe-Cross® Radio Frequency Total Occlusion Crossing System is an in vivo medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description
The Safe-Cross™ Radio Frequency (RF) Total Occlusion (TO) Crossing System consists of a the following:
- 0.014" Safe-Cross RF Crossing Wire Straight and Angled Tip (with Torquer)
- 0.035'' Safe-Cross RF Crossing Wire Straight and Angled Tip (with Torquer) .
- Safe-Steer™ Optical Coherence Reflectometry (OCR) Unit with . Display Monitor
- Safe-Cross RF Generator with Footswitch and Interface Cable .
The Safe-Cross RF Crossing Wires are similar to the predicate guidewires in construction and intended use. The proximal end of the Crossing Wire is connected to a Y-Site hub that houses the optic fiber connector and the RF connector. The optical connector is connected to the OCR Unit to allow the medical practitioner to visualize structures within the vessel for navigation purposes. The RF connector is connected to the RF Generator. This allows the medical practitioner to provide discrete RF energy to the distal tip to assist in moving the wire tip through the occlusion in the vessel.
The RF Crossing Wire is packaged in a Tyvek® sealed plastic tray. The packaged RF Crossing Wire is sterilized by ethylene oxide gas. The packaged RF Crossing Wire is provided "STERILE" and Non-pyrogenic, and is intended for single use only.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Biocompatibility testing, in vitro bench testing and in vivo animal studies were conducted to exaluate the biological and performance characteristics of the Safe-Cross System. Biocompatibility test results indicate that the patient contact components of the Safe-Cross Crossing Wire are biocompatible. Benchtop performance test results indicate that the components of the Safe-Cross System satisfy safety and performance requirements of the device specifications. In Vivo animal studies demonstrate that the various components of the Safe Cross System function together, as intended, in the animal model and do not raise unanticipated safety issues.
Human clinical studies have been conduct to verify the safety and performance characteristics of the Safe-Cross System when used in human subjects for the indicated use of crossing total occlusions in native iliac and superficial arteries (SFA) of the lower extremities. The results of the clinical studies indicate that the device performs as intended and does not involve unacceptable risk to the patient.
