The description details a physical guide wire and its accessories, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No.
The device is a guide wire, which facilitates the placement of diagnostic or therapeutic catheters, but it is not itself a therapeutic device. It is an accessory to therapeutic procedures rather than having a therapeutic effect itself.
No
The device description indicates it is a guide wire used to facilitate the placement of other catheters, which can be diagnostic or therapeutic. The guide wire itself is not described as performing any diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly lists multiple hardware components, including a guide wire, torque device, and insertion tool.
Based on the provided information, the Micrus Watusi guide wire is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "general intravascular use, including the neuro and peripheral vasculature" to facilitate the placement of diagnostic or therapeutic catheters. This describes a device used within the body for medical procedures, not a device used to test samples outside the body.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of a guide wire used in interventional procedures (shaft, tip, core wire, coating, torque device, insertion tool). These are all components of an invasive medical device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), performing tests on these samples, or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Micrus Watusi guide wire is a tool used to navigate within the body during medical procedures.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Micrus Watusi guide wire is intended for general intravascular use, including the neuro and peripheral vasculature. The Watusi guide wire is not intended for use in the coronary arteries. The guide wire can be torqued to facilitate the selective placement of diagnostic or therapeutic catheters. A torque device (pin vise) in included with the guide wire to facilitate directional manipulation of the guide wire. An introducer device is included to introduce the guide wire into the catherer or hemostatic valve, and can also be used to shape the tlexible tip of the guide wire, as desired.

Dear Ms. Webber:
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.
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 comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21
