Intended Use
The Strata NSC Valve is a shunt component designed to provide continued The Utrain NOO Varve is a onal from the ventricles of the brain to the right atrium of the Ocrobroopinal Hall (Cavity. The design allows the physician to non-invasively adjust valve pressure/performance level pre- and post-implantation by using a special magnetic adjustment tool.
Device Description
The PS Medical Strata NSC Valve is an adjustable non-siphon control Valve. The valve is manufactured of silicone elastomer and polypropylene (tissue contact materials). The valve is used as a shunt component. The adjustable valve is designed for non-invasive pressure-flow adjustment.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical valve with a magnetic adjustment mechanism. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would indicate the use of such technologies.

Yes
This device is designed to treat hydrocephalus by shunting cerebrospinal fluid, which directly addresses a disease state.

No
The device is a shunt component for draining cerebrospinal fluid, not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the valve is manufactured of silicone elastomer and polypropylene, indicating it is a physical hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Strata NSC Valve Function: The description clearly states the Strata NSC Valve is a shunt component designed to drain cerebrospinal fluid from the brain to another body cavity. It is an implanted device that directly interacts with the patient's internal systems.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological specimens in vitro (outside the body).

Therefore, the Strata NSC Valve falls under the category of an implanted medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 882.5550 Central nervous system fluid shunt and components.

(a)
Identification. A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.(b)

Description: The PS Medical Strata NSC Valve is an adjustable non-siphon control Valve. The valve is manufactured of silicone elastomer and polypropylene (tissue contact materials). The valve is used as a shunt component. The adjustable valve is designed for non-invasive pressure-flow adjustment.

Intended Use: The PS Medical Strata NSC valve is a shunt component designed to inconde controlled CSF flow from the ventricles of the brain into the peritoneal cavity. The Strata NSC valve allows the physician to non-invasively adjust the pressure/flow performance level pre- and post implantation to address the changing patient needs.

Intended Use of predicate device(s): The PS Medical Strata valve is a shunt component designed to provide controlled CSF flow from the ventricles of the brain into the peritoneal cavity. The Strata valve allows the physician to non-invasively adjust the pressure/flow performance level pre- and post implantation to address the changing patient needs. Additionally the Strata valve minimizes the excessive reduction of intraventricular pressure and volume due to excessive drainage of CSF that may be caused by the siphoning effect of hydrostatic pressure of the distal catheter. The siphon effect may be created by the

elevation of the ventricular catheter with respect to the distal catheter (i.e. when the patient sits, stands or is held erect).

Technological comparison: Medtronic Neurosurgery submits that the materials of fabrication, intended use, performance characteristics and design specifications of the labhoutin, monobulars, with and without BioGlide are the same as the previously reviewed and cleared Strata Valve and Shunt Assemblies with and without BioGlide. Based upon the summary above, Medtronic Neurosurgery determines substantial equivalence, safety, and efficacy of the Strata NSC products based upon the predicate and currently marketed devices.
