Intended Use
To be used to guide and exchange endoscopic accessories and electrosurgical devices for biliary procedures. The guidewire is indicated for selective cannulation of the biliary ducts, including but not limited to the common bile, cystic, pancreatic, and right and left hepatic ducts.
Device Description
The FXWire™ Advanced Measurement Guidewire is a kink resistant metal alloy cored guidewire, which is encapsulated in a PTFE jacket. The guidewire has a flexible radiopaque tip, with a hydrophilic coating for enhanced lubricity. At the distal end of the guidewire, there are painted marker bands beginning at 6cm and extending to 30cm from the distal tip of the guidewire, as well as two radiopaque marker bands placed at 10cm and 15 cm from the distal tip of the guidewire. Additionally, at the proximal end of the guidewire, endoscopic marker bands have been placed beginning at 210cm and extending to 270cm from the distal tip of the guidewire. These marker bands enable endoscopic and fluoroscopic visualization of movement, as well as estimation of stricture length. This guidewire meets the recognized standard for high frequency current leakage (Reference ANSI/AAMI Standard HF 18-1993) when used with a sphinctertome and may be left in place during electrosurgical cutting.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on the physical characteristics and measurement capabilities of a guidewire, with no mention of AI or ML technologies. The performance studies compare it to a predicate device based on traditional performance requirements.

No.
The device acts as a guide for other endoscopic accessories and electrosurgical devices, and helps in visualization and measurement, but it does not directly treat a condition.

No

This device is primarily used to guide and exchange endoscopic accessories and electrosurgical devices, and for selective cannulation of biliary ducts. While it assists in visualizing movement and estimating stricture length, this function is supportive of interventional procedures rather than a standalone diagnostic purpose. Its main role described is operational, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly details a physical guidewire made of metal alloy with a PTFE jacket, radiopaque tip, and marker bands. This is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is used to "guide and exchange endoscopic accessories and electrosurgical devices for biliary procedures" and for "selective cannulation of the biliary ducts." This describes a device used within the body for a procedural purpose, not for testing samples outside the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical guidewire with features for navigation and measurement during a medical procedure. It doesn't mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample. The device's function is entirely mechanical and procedural.

IVD devices are designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's purpose is to facilitate a medical procedure within the body.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.

(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
