Intended Use
The RX ACCUNET™ Embolic Protection System is indicated for use as a guide wire and embolic protection system to contain and remove embolic material (thrombus/debris) while performing angioplasty and stenting procedures in carotid arteries. The diameter of the artery at the site of filter basket placement should be between 3.25 mm and 7.0 mm.
Device Description
The RX ACCUNET™ Embolic Protection System is a filtration type embolic protection system consisting of the RX ACCUNET™ Guide Wire, the RX ACCUNET™ Delivery System and the RX ACCUNET™ Recovery Catheter. The RX ACCUNET™ Embolic Protection System is delivery Sheath with a flexible tip coil that facilitates movement of the Sheath through tortuous anatomy. Once across the lesion, the Filter Basket is expanded in the arterial lumen by peeling the Delivery Sheath from the guide wire using the torque device and peel away adapter. At the conclusion of the interventional procedure, the Filter Basket is collapsed inside the Recovery Catheter. Once collapsed, the entire system is removed as a single unit. The Recovery Catheter has a radiopaque tip to facilitate movement though tortuous anatomy
More Information

No
The device description focuses on mechanical components and procedures, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

Yes
This device is designed to contain and remove embolic material during angioplasty and stenting procedures, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at treating a medical condition.

No
The device is described as an embolic protection system used during angioplasty and stenting procedures to contain and remove embolic material, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple physical components (Guide Wire, Delivery System, Recovery Catheter, Delivery Sheath, Filter Basket) and their mechanical functions, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The RX ACCUNET™ Embolic Protection System is a physical device used inside the body (in vivo) during a surgical procedure. It's designed to capture and remove debris from blood vessels.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a procedure performed on the patient's carotid arteries, not the analysis of a sample taken from the patient.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the RX ACCUNET™ Embolic Protection System is an in vivo medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic.

Dear Ms. Anastas:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of August 16, 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 (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.

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.
