No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a guidewire, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a guidewire used for vessel entry to facilitate the introduction of another intravascular device, rather than performing a therapeutic function itself.

No

The device is a guidewire intended for percutaneous vessel entry to facilitate the introduction of other intravascular devices; it does not diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is comprised of physical components (stainless steel cable, coil, PTFE coating) and the performance studies involve physical testing (kink, torqueability, corrosion, etc.), indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "percutaneous vessel entry typically using the Seldinger technique to facilitate subsequent introduction of an intravascular device." This describes a surgical or interventional procedure performed directly on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a guidewire, a physical tool used to navigate within blood vessels.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) 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 (inside the body) as a tool for a medical procedure.

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

A. Functional Testing
In-vitro testing was conducted in accordance with ISO 11070, Sterile single-use intravascular catheter introducers and FDA Coronary and Cerebrovascular Guidewire Guidance, January, 1995. The AMPLATZER Noodlewire samples were subjected to kink, torqueability, torque strength, corrosion, fracture, flexure, tip flexibility, lubricity, and pull testing.
In-vitro Simulated Life Testing to document performance of the AMPLATZER Noodlewire Guidewire under simulated, but accelerated, in-use conditions was performed.
Biocompatibility testing was completed per ISO 10993-1.

B. Clinical Studies
The AMPLATZER Noodlewire Guidewire was used as a part of a feasibility clinical trial conducted in the United States. Specific data to the Noodlewire Guidewire was collected as part of the clinical trial.

C. Conclusions Drawn from the Studies
The results of the testing indicated that the AMPLATZER Noodlewire Guidewire functions according to specifications and the materials used in the Noodlewire Guidewire are biocompatible. Therefore, the Noodlewire Guidewire is considered acceptable for human use.

Dear Ms. LaForte:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.
