Intended Use
The IQ™ Guide Wires are intended to facilitate the placement and exchange of balloon dilatation catheters or other therapeutic devices during PTCA or PTA or other intravascular interventional procedures. The IQ™ Guide Wires are not intended for use in the cerebral vasculature. The devices are provided non-pyrogenic, sterile, and intended for one procedure only.
Device Description
The IQTM Guide Wires are silicone-coated, steerable, spring-coil guide wires available in a nominal diameter of 0.014 inches (0,36 mm) and nominal lengths of 185 and 300 centimeters with Brachial and Femoral marks at 90cm and 100cm respectively. The tip will have Floppy flexibility, while the rail will offer Moderate Support (MS). The distal two centimeters of all models are radiopaque and available in either a straight shapeable or a pre-formed J-Tip. The IQTM Guide Wires will be available with and without a lesion length marker system. The 185-centimeter version is designed with a proximal extension section that allows connection to the AddWireTM Extension Wire.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a guide wire, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
The device description states it is a guide wire intended to facilitate the placement and exchange of therapeutic devices, not to be a therapeutic device itself.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a guide wire intended to "facilitate the placement and exchange of balloon dilatation catheters or other therapeutic devices." It is an accessory for interventional procedures, not a tool for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly details a physical guide wire made of silicone-coated material with specific dimensions, flexibility, and radiopaque features. It also mentions physical testing like torque response, tip prolapse, and tensile strength, which are characteristic of hardware devices. There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the IQ™ Guide Wires are used to "facilitate the placement and exchange of balloon dilatation catheters or other therapeutic devices during PTCA or PTA or other intravascular interventional procedures." This describes a device used within the body for a therapeutic or interventional purpose, not for examining specimens in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical guide wire used for navigation within blood vessels. This aligns with an interventional device, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

Therefore, the IQ™ Guide Wires are an interventional medical device, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies

Non-Clinical Test Summary: Testing and evaluation of the IQTM Guide Wires included torque response, tip prolapse, tip shapeability, radiopacity, marker location, lubricity, coating adherence/presence, tensile and shear, combined load, visual inspection, device compatibility, biocompatibility, and product shelf-life. Test results verified that the IQTM Guide Wires met all of the minimum requirements and are adequate for their intended use. The IQTM Guide Wires are considered substantially equivalent to guide wires currently marketed by Boston Scientific based on a comparison of intended use, design and the results of in vitro testing and evaluation.

Intended Use of DeviceThe IQ ™ Guide Wires are intended to facilitate the placement and exchange of balloon dilatation catheters or other therapeutic devices during PTCA or PTA or other intravascular interventional procedures. The IQ ™ Guide Wires are not intended for use in the cerebral vasculature. The devices are provided non-pyrogenic, sterile, and intended for one procedure only.
Technological CharacteristicsThe IQ ™ Guide Wires utilize similar materials and methods of construction as the IQ ™ Hydrophilic Guide Wires (K032183, August 01, 2003). The main differences in construction are the full-length outer spring coil with an inner coil instead of a spring tip and polymer sleeve, and silicone coating instead of hydrophilic coating. The IQ ™ Marker version also has marker coils, which the IQ ™ Hydrophilic does not.
Non-Clinical Test SummaryTesting and evaluation of the IQ ™ Guide Wires included torque response, tip prolapse, tip shapeability, radiopacity, marker location, lubricity, coating adherence/presence, tensile and shear, combined load, visual inspection, device compatibility, biocompatibility, and product shelf-life. Test results verified that the IQ ™ Guide Wires met all of the minimum requirements and are adequate for their intended use. The IQ ™ Guide Wires are considered substantially equivalent to guide wires currently marketed by Boston Scientific based on a comparison of intended use, design and the results of in vitro testing and evaluation.
