Intended Use
The G2 Filter is indicated for use in the prevention of recurrent pulmonary embolism via permanent placement in the vena cava in the following situations: - Pulmonary thromboembolism when anticoagulants are contraindicated. - Failure of anticoagulant therapy for thromboembolic disease. - Emergency treatment following massive pulmonary embolism where anticipated benefits of conventional therapy are reduced. - Chronic, recurrent pulmonary embolism where anticoagulant therapy has failed or is contraindicated.
Device Description
The G2 Filter System (subject) description is identical to the Recovery Filter System (predicate) description and indications for use. The modifications made to the predicate filter device and delivery system are primarily dimensional. No material changes or additional components have been incorporated. The predicate filter device has been modified as a result of continued product improvement. The predicate delivery system has been modified to accommodate the geometry modifications of the predicate filter.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on dimensional modifications to a predicate device.

Yes
The device is described as preventing recurrent pulmonary embolism via permanent placement in the vena cava, indicating a therapeutic purpose in treating a medical condition.

No

The device description and intended use indicate it is an implantable filter for preventing pulmonary embolism, not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "filter device and delivery system," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device that is implanted in the vena cava to prevent pulmonary embolism. This is a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a physical filter and delivery system, which are typical components of an implantable medical device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo for a therapeutic purpose.

§ 870.3375 Cardiovascular intravascular filter.

(a)
Identification. A cardiovascular intravascular filter is an implant that is placed in the inferior vena cava for the purpose of preventing pulmonary thromboemboli (blood clots generated in the lower limbs and broken loose into the blood stream) from flowing into the right side of the heart and the pulmonary circulation.(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are:(1) “Use of International Standards Organization's ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ” and
(2) FDA's:
(i) “510(k) Sterility Review Guidance and Revision of 2/12/90 (K90-1)” and
