Intended Use
The TORAYGuide guidewire is intended for use in percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the heart and peripheral vasculature. The device is not intended for use in the coronary arteries.
Device Description
The TORAYGUIDE™ Guidewire is manufactured of 304 stainless steel, which is consistent with guidewires presently in commercial distribution and with the same intended use. The device diameter is 0.65 mm, and is supplied in lengths ranging from 175 to 230 cm. The guidewire has a spring core at the distal end, also of stainless steel. The device is ethylene oxide sterilized and intended for single use only.

No
The description focuses on the material and physical characteristics of a standard guidewire and does not mention any computational or analytical capabilities.

No
A therapeutic device is used to treat or cure a medical condition. This device is a guidewire, used to introduce and position other devices, not to treat a condition itself.

No
Explanation: The device description states it is a guidewire intended to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices. This is an interventional/therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical guidewire made of stainless steel, which is a hardware component.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the heart and peripheral vasculature." This describes a device used within the body for a medical procedure, not a device used to test samples outside the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical guidewire made of stainless steel, designed to be inserted into blood vessels. This is consistent with a surgical or interventional device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any process related to diagnosing a disease or condition based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. The TORAYGuide guidewire does not fit this description.

Date of Summary: November 12, 2004

Device Name: TORAYGUIDE™ Guidewire

Device Classification Name: Catheter Guide Wire (74 DQX); 21 CFR, Part 870.1330

Legally Marketed Device to which Equivalence is Claimed: The legally marketed predicate device is the Guidewire (K982559) manufactured by Galt Medical Corporation, determined to be substantially equivalent to a legally marketed (preAmendment) device on February 1, 1999.

Device Description: The TORAYGUIDE™ Guidewire is manufactured of 304 stainless steel, which is consistent with guidewires presently in commercial distribution and with the same intended use. The device diameter is 0.65 mm, and is supplied in lengths ranging from 175 to 230 cm. The guidewire has a spring core at the distal end, also of stainless steel. The device is ethylene oxide sterilized and intended for single use only.

Intended Use: The TORAYGUIDE guidewire is intended for use in percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the heart and peripheral vasculature. The device is not intended for use in the coronary arteries.

Descriptive Summary of Technological Characteristics and Those of Predicate Device: The TORAYGUIDE Guidewire has the same indications for use and is otherwise technically identical to the legally marketed predicate device.

Performance Data: Applicable testing was conducted on the TORAYGUIDE guidewire in accordance with the FDA guidance. All samples met the acceptance criteria. The test results establish that the TORAYGUIDE Guidewire possesses performance characteristics that make it acceptable for its intended use.

Conclusion: The information and data provided in this 510(k) Notification establish that the TORAYGUIDE Guidewire is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device.
