No
The device description focuses on mechanical components and physical characteristics, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is indicated for "removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the arterial system," which is a direct treatment of a medical condition.
No
The device is designed for the removal of emboli and thrombi (treatment), not for diagnosing their presence or characteristics. While it mentions filtering blood for laboratory analysis, this analysis is performed separately and is not part of the device's diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical catheter with lumens, a distal tip, radiopaque markers, and accessories like a syringe, extension line, and stopcock. This is a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, the Vascular Solutions Pronto Extraction Catheter is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is the removal of emboli and thrombi from vessels in the arterial system. This is a therapeutic procedure performed in vivo (within the living body).
- Device Description: The description details a catheter designed for physical extraction of material from blood vessels. While it includes a filter basket for potential laboratory analysis of the removed thrombus, the primary function of the device itself is the extraction, not the in vitro examination of a specimen.
- IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Pronto catheter's primary action is within the body.
The inclusion of a filter basket for laboratory analysis of the removed thrombus suggests that the removed material might be used for in vitro diagnostic purposes, but the catheter itself is the tool for removal, not the diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Pronto extraction catheter is a dual lumen catheter with related accessories. The extraction lumen allows for the aspiration and removal of emboli/thrombi using the included syringe, extension line and stopcock. The catheter has a rounded distal tip with a protected, sloped opening of the extraction lumen to facilitate advancement of the catheter into the blood vessel and maximize extraction of emboli/thrombi through the extraction lumen. Incorporated within the catheter distal tip is a non-blood contacting radiopaque marker for fluotoscopic visualization. Two visible markers are located on the shaft of the catheter to provide guidance to the user concerning the relative position of the Pronto and the associated guide catheter. The catheter is a monoral design with a distal flexible region and a proximal stiff region. The catheter has an approximate outer diameter of 0.065 inches, allowing delivery through standard 6Ft. guide catheters. The smaller wire lumen of the catheter is able to accommodate guide wires that are ≤ 0.014" in diameter. The catheter will be available in working lengths of 40 to 145 cm, in increments of 15 cm. The proximal end of the catheter incorporates a standard luct adapter to facilitate the attachment of the catheter to the included extension line, stopcock, and syringe. A 74 micron filter basket is included for assistance in filtering the blood removed during the procedure for laboratory analysis of thrombus.
