Intended Use
The Quattro Catheter Model IC4593, connected to an Alsius Catheter Thermal Regulation System, is indicated for use: - in cardiac surgery patients to achieve and or maintain normothermia during surgery and recovery/intensive care, and - to induce, maintain and reverse mild hypothermia in neurosurgery patients in surgery and recovery/intensive care.
Device Description
The QUATTRO catheters are multi lumen intravascular catheters in various sizes. In common across the models, the catheters have two lumens that are used to circulate sterile saline to exchange heat with the central venous blood supply. When the heat exchange feature of the catheter is in use, heated/chilled saline is pumped through the heat exchange lumen, expanding the diameter of the distal portion of the catheter to a nominal 5mm or 8mm where the heating/cooling membranes interface with the patient's circulating blood.
More Information

No
The summary describes a physical catheter and a thermal regulation system, with no mention of AI, ML, or any software-based decision-making or analysis.

Yes
The device is described as being used in cardiac surgery patients to achieve and/or maintain normothermia and to induce, maintain, and reverse mild hypothermia in neurosurgery patients. These applications directly involve treating or managing physiological conditions, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is used to regulate body temperature (normothermia or hypothermia) by exchanging heat with the central venous blood supply. This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a multi-lumen intravascular catheter, which is a physical hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used outside of the body.
  • Device Function: The Quattro Catheter is an intravascular catheter that is inserted into the patient's central venous blood supply. Its function is to directly exchange heat with the blood to regulate body temperature. This is a therapeutic intervention performed within the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to achieve and maintain normothermia or induce, maintain, and reverse mild hypothermia in patients during surgery and recovery. This is a treatment or management function, not a diagnostic test.

Therefore, the Quattro Catheter is a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
