Intended Use
The Nexus Detachable Coils are intended for the endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms that - because of their morphology, their location, or the patient's general medical condition - are considered by the treating neurosurgical team to be a) very high risk for management by traditional operative techniques, or b) be inoperable. The Nexus Detachable Coils are also intended for the embolization of other neuro vascular abnormalities, such as, arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous fistulae.
Device Description
The Nexus coils are platinum alloy coils, enlaced with absorbable polymer fibers, and attached to a stainless steel guiding system with a radiopaque positioning coil. Nexus coils are designed for use with the NXT Detachment System specifically designed for coil detachment. The NXT Detachment System is sold separately.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a physical medical device (platinum alloy coils) and its intended use for embolization. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI or ML.

Yes
The device is intended for the endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other neurovascular abnormalities, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

This device, the Nexus Detachable Coils, is an interventional device used for embolization (treatment) of intracranial aneurysms and other neurovascular abnormalities, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states the device is made of platinum alloy coils and a stainless steel guiding system, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the Nexus Detachable Coils are for the endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other neuro vascular abnormalities. This is a therapeutic procedure performed within the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical implant (platinum alloy coils) used for a surgical procedure.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

The information provided describes a medical device used for a therapeutic intervention, not for testing samples outside the body.

§ 882.5950 Neurovascular embolization device.

(a)
Identification. A neurovascular embolization device is an intravascular implant intended to permanently occlude blood flow to cerebral aneurysms and cerebral ateriovenous malformations. This does not include cyanoacrylates and other embolic agents, which act by polymerization or precipitation. Embolization devices used in other vascular applications are also not included in this classification, see § 870.3300.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls.) The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Vascular and Neurovascular Embolization Devices.” For availability of this guidance document, see § 882.1(e).

Summary of Substantial Equivalence

The data presented in this submission demonstrates the technological similarity and equivalency of the Nexus Morpheus 3D CSR coils compared with the predicate device Nexus Tetris 3D CSR.

The two devices,

  • Have the same intended use, .
  • Use the same operating principle, .
  • Incorporate the same basic design, .
  • Use similar construction and material, ●
  • Are packaged and sterilized using same processes. .

In summary, the Nexus coils described in this submission are, in our opinion, substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
