The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and mechanical performance of a sheath introducer, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No
The device is described as a sheath introducer used to facilitate the introduction of other devices, not to provide therapy itself. The "Intended Use" section states it's for "diagnostic and therapeutic procedures," but the device's role is to provide access for other devices, not perform therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is intended to facilitate the introduction of other devices for "a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures." While the device itself isn't diagnostic, it plays a role in diagnostic procedures.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a sheath introducer, side port extension, stopcock, hemostasis valve, suture ring, and vessel dilator. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.
Based on the provided information, the Merit Prelude™ Sheath Introducer is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "percutaneous introduction of various devices into veins and/or arteries." This describes a procedure performed on a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient.
- Device Description: The description details a physical device used for accessing blood vessels, not a reagent, instrument, or kit used for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), diagnostic testing, or providing information about a patient's health status based on sample analysis.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Merit Prelude™ Sheath Introducer is a medical device used for accessing the vascular system during procedures.

Summary of Performance Studies
Bench testing was conducted on the Prelude in order to establish substantial equivalence. Comparative testing with the predicate device performed includes radiodetectability of the sheath introducer and vessel dilator, valve leak pressure, tip insertion force, sheath hub/cap snap fit, dilator snap fit to sheath hub, and guide wire compatibility. Performance testing was conducted according to international standards as well as Merit's in-house protocols. Where performance could affect the safety or effectiveness of the Prelude, comparison with the predicate device was conducted (i.e., valve leak, tip insertion force). Performance data demonstrate that the Prelude is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Summary of Characteristics in Relation to Predicate Device
Does the new device have the same indication statement as the predicate device? Yes.
Although there are minor differences, the intended use is the same, (i.e., to gain intravascular access).
Does the new device have the same technological characteristics, e.g., design, materials, etc. as the predicate device?
Yes.
The Merit Prelude Sheath Introducer employs a similar method of operation and design as compared to the predicate device. Both devices consist of a sheath introducer that has a side port extension tube with a stopcock attached to it and a vessel dilator. Both devices are comprised of similar materials and are the same sizes.
Are the descriptive characteristics precise enough to ensure equivalence to the predicate device?
No.
Bench testing was conducted on the Prelude in order to establish substantial equivalence. Comparative testing with the predicate device performed includes radiodetectability of the sheath introducer and vessel dilator, valve leak pressure, tip insertion force, sheath hub/cap snap fit, dilator snap fit to sheath hub, and guide wire compatibility.
Are performance data available to assess effects of the new device as compared to the predicate device?
Yes.
Performance testing was conducted according to international standards as well as Merit's in-house protocols. Where performance could affect the safety or effectiveness of the Prelude, comparison with the predicate device was conducted (i.e., valve leak, tip insertion force).
Does performance data demonstrate equivalence?
Yes.
Performance data demonstrate that the Prelude is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
Conclusion: "Substantial Equivalence" Determination
Based on CDRH's substantial equivalence decision tree, the Prelude is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
