More Information

No
The summary describes a physical embolization device (microspheres) and its intended use. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML. The performance study focuses on clinical outcomes of the physical device.

Yes
The device is used for the "embolization of hypervascular tumors, including leiomyoma uteri, and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs)", which is a therapeutic intervention.

No
The device is described as being used for "embolization," which is a therapeutic procedure to block blood vessels, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states "Contour SE™ Microspheres," indicating a physical product (microspheres) used for embolization, not a software-only device.

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 embolization of hypervascular tumors and AVMs. This is a therapeutic procedure performed in vivo (within the body) to block blood vessels.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces the use of microspheres for embolization, which is an interventional procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition. IVDs are used for diagnostic purposes, not therapeutic intervention.

The device is clearly intended for a medical procedure performed directly on the patient, which is characteristic of a therapeutic or interventional device, not an IVD.

§ 870.3300 Vascular embolization device.

(a)
Identification. A vascular embolization device is an intravascular implant intended to control hemorrhaging due to aneurysms, certain types of tumors (e.g., nephroma, hepatoma, uterine fibroids), and arteriovenous malformations. This does not include cyanoacrylates and other embolic agents, which act by polymerization or precipitation. Embolization devices used in neurovascular applications are also not included in this classification, see § 882.5950 of this chapter.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls.) The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Vascular and Neurovascular Embolization Devices.” For availability of this guidance document, see § 870.1(e).
