No
The device description focuses on the physical properties and construction of a reinforced endotracheal tube, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML. The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found".
Yes
The device is used for airway management during anesthesia, facilitating the delivery of gases and drugs and preventing aspiration, which directly relates to supporting or restoring a bodily function or structure.
No
The device is an endotracheal tube designed for airway management during anesthesia by maintaining the patency of the lumen, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly details a physical, single-use tracheal tube with metal wire reinforcement, indicating it is a hardware medical device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Well Lead Reinforced Endotracheal Tube is a device inserted into the airway to manage breathing during medical procedures. It is a physical device used in vivo (within the body) to maintain an open airway and deliver gases.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological specimens. The device's function is purely mechanical and related to airway management.
The information provided clearly describes a medical device used for airway management, not for diagnostic testing of biological samples.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Well Lead Reinforced Endotracheal Tubes are designed for oral or nasal intubation for airway management during anaesthesia. The product may be used where the patient's neck is likely to be moved or flexed or the patient is in the prone positiom so that a non-reinforced tracheal tube might become kinked.
The Well Lead Reinforced Endotracheal Tubes are designed for nasal intubation for airway management during anaesthesia. The product may be used where the patient's neck is likely to be moved or the patient is in the prone position so that a non-reinforced tracheal tube might become kinked.

Device Description
Single Use. A Tracheal tube with addidional metal wire spiral reinforcement to provide kink-resistance. This type of product is typically used during operations where a high degree of flexibility is required from the tube, for instance prone position, head and neck surgery, and oral surgery.
The plastic material and the spring allow the tube to be easily bent in all directions. The steel reinforcement maintains the patency of the lumen.
The Well Lead Reinforced Endotracheal tube is available in cuffed and uncuffed variants. The cuff is intended to provide a seal against the trachea, ensuring that inspiratory and expiratory gasses are routed through the tube and not allowed to escape to the patients upper airway, thus preventing loss of ventilation / anaesthetic and nebulised drugs, and reducing the likelihood of any aspirated stomach contents from entering the lungs. Uncuffed tubes are used mainly for paediatric patients or when patients require less protection from loss of ventilation / anaesthetic and nebulised drugs and or stomach aspiration.
The Reinforced Endotracheal tube (Cuffed) is available in sizes 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, 1 9.0, and 9.5 mm only.
The Reinforced Endotracheal tube (Uncuffed) is available in sizes 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0, and 9.5 only

K032112 – Portex Reinforced Tracheal Tube (Cuffed and Uncuffed) K042683 Well Lead Endotracheal Tube
Substantial Equivalence:
Well Lead Medical Instruments claims the proposed devices to be substantially equivalent to the devices previously cleared by FDA in K032112. Well Lead Medical Products claims this equivalence because the proposed devices have an equivalent intended use, manufacturing materials, operating principles, and physical, operational specifications as compared to the predicate devices. In addition this 510(k) is a variation of the already cleared Well Lead 510(k) K042683 with a wire reinforcement added.
The similarities and differences between the proposed and predicate devices have been identified and explained in the Comparison Matrix which has been included in Section 9 of this submission. Additionally, this matrix is included as an attachment to the 510(k) Summary. These differences have no effect on safety and effectiveness.

Dear Dr. Ward:
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 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial cquivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
