More Information

No
The device description focuses on mechanical and radio frequency components, and there is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
The device facilitates the placement of other devices during percutaneous interventions by helping to cross total occlusions; it does not directly treat a disease or condition itself.

No

The device is indicated for use in facilitating the placement of devices in percutaneous interventions, not for diagnosing conditions. It assists in crossing total occlusions in arteries using RF energy for navigation and movement, rather than providing diagnostic information.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as RF Crossing Wires, a System Console with Display and Footswitch, and a Y-Site hub. This indicates it is a hardware-based medical device with potential software control, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to facilitate the placement of devices in percutaneous interventions in native peripheral arteries. This is a therapeutic and interventional procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device components are wires, a console, and a footswitch, all designed for physical manipulation within the body and delivery of energy.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The visualization mentioned is for navigation within the vessel during the procedure, not for analyzing biological samples.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide diagnostic information. This device is clearly designed for a therapeutic intervention.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Biocompatibility testing has been conducted to verify that the materials in the modified 0.014" RF Crossing Wires are safe. In vitro bench testing was conducted to evaluate the performance characteristics of the modified RF Crossing Wires. Benchtop performance test results indicate that the modified RF Crossing Wires satisfy safety and performance requirements of the device specifications and do not raise additional safety issues. In vivo animal studies have shown that the components of the system function properly logether and satisfy intravascular performance requirements in an animal model.

Dear Ms. Misajon:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of June 8, 2005.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must
