No
The summary describes a physical catheter device and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets typically associated with AI/ML development or validation.

No
The device is intended to facilitate the entry of interventional devices, rather than directly treat a condition.

No
Explanation: The device's intended use is to facilitate the entry of interventional devices into vessels, which is a procedural/treatment function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly identifies it as a "Sheath-in Sheath Catheter," which is a physical, hardware medical device used in cardiovascular procedures. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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 entry of interventional devices into the vessels of the cardiovascular system." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a procedural purpose, not a device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens for diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
    • Using reagents or assays

The device is a catheter, which is a tool used directly within the patient's body during a medical procedure.
