Intended Use
The Convoy Advanced Delivery Sheath Kit is intended to facilitate the intracardiac placement of interventional devices.
Device Description
The Convoy Advanced Delivery Sheath Kit consists of: (1) a disposable Introducer Sheath, (2) a Vessel Dilator and (3) Guidewire with Guidewire Introducer. These devices are designed for the introduction of various types of cardiovascular catheters to the heart. The Introducer Sheaths are constructed in a range of curve reach configurations, diameters and lengths to respond to physician preferences. The Introducer Sheath configurations covered under the subject 510(k) Premarket Notification include 8.5 F and 9.5 F diameters, angles ranging from 0° - 180°, radius of curvatures ranging from 0.6" - 1.75", lengths of 60 cm - 101.5 cm, and may be configured with either one, two or three curves in a single or dual plane.

No
The device description and summary of performance studies do not mention any AI or ML components or capabilities. The device appears to be a purely mechanical delivery system.

No.
The device is intended to facilitate the intracardiac placement of interventional devices, acting as a delivery sheath, rather than directly treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an "introducer sheath" used to facilitate the placement of interventional devices and cardiovascular catheters. Its function is to provide access for other devices, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components (disposable Introducer Sheath, Vessel Dilator, Guidewire with Guidewire Introducer) and describes their physical characteristics (diameters, angles, radius of curvatures, lengths), indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "facilitate the intracardiac placement of interventional devices." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a procedural purpose, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details components like sheaths, dilators, and guidewires used for introducing catheters into the heart. These are all tools for a medical procedure performed on a patient, not for laboratory testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other elements typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

Therefore, the Convoy Advanced Delivery Sheath Kit is a medical device used for interventional procedures, not an IVD.
