Intended Use
The AMPLATZER TorqVue Exchange System is intended for removal of an AMPLATZER Delivery Sheath and subsequent exchange for an AMPLATZER Delivery Sheath of equal or larger diameter.
Device Description
The AMPLATZER TorqVue Exchange System is a sterile, single use device comprised of a delivery sheath, dilator, loader, hemostasis valve, delivery cable and vise. The system components are identical to the AMPLATZER TorqVue Delivery System, with the exception of the dilator, which incorporates an enlarged inner lumen for passage over a delivery cable. The Exchange System is available in two distal end curvatures: 180° and 45°.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical device for exchanging delivery sheaths and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
The device is used to facilitate the removal and exchange of delivery sheaths, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

The provided text indicates the device is used for the "removal of an AMPLATZER Delivery Sheath and subsequent exchange for an AMPLATZER Delivery Sheath," which describes a procedural or interventional function, not a diagnostic one. There is no mention of the device being used to identify, diagnose, or monitor a disease or condition. Its components and intended use are purely for device exchange.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple physical components (delivery sheath, dilator, loader, hemostasis valve, delivery cable, and vise), indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a procedure performed within the body (removal and exchange of a delivery sheath). IVDs are used to examine specimens from the body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The description details components used for delivering and exchanging a sheath within the body, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens, reagents, calibrators, controls, or any other elements typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

This device is a surgical or interventional medical device used directly on a patient.

Dear Ms. Nivala:

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 equivalence 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 Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120.
