The description focuses on the material composition, physical characteristics, and accessories of a drainage catheter. There is no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities that would suggest the use of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is designed for the drainage of cerebrospinal fluid to reduce and control increased intracranial pressure, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is described as a catheter for drainage of cerebrospinal fluid to control intracranial pressure, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter made of polyurethane with silver ions, a stainless steel stylet, a stainless steel subgaleal trochar, and other physical components. It is a hardware device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to reduce and control increased intracranial pressure. This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a catheter designed for temporary implantation within the body.
- Lack of In Vitro Testing: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such testing.
The Neurocath Ag catheter is a medical device used for a surgical/interventional procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Neurocath Ag catheter is designed to be temporarily implanted (less than 30 days) for the drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to reduce and control increased intracranial pressure (ICP).

Device Description
The Neurocath Ag is an external drainage catheter composed of polyurethane and impregnated with the silver ions for the purpose of radionacity. The catheter is available with 3 holes off-set at 120" or 16 holes, in lengths of 32, 23.5, and 15.5cm. Biocompatibility and performance testing demonstrates the safety and efficacy of these devices. The Neurocath Ag is supplied with a stainless steel stylet (for introducing it into the ventricle), a stainless steel subgaleal trochar (for tunneled catheter placement), a male luer connector, a slitted wing and a compression hub (for connecting the cathetex to the tubing set). The Neurocath Ag eatherer is available individually or packaged with the tubing set.

§ 882.5550 Central nervous system fluid shunt and components.
(a)
Identification. A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.(b)

Intended Use:
The Neurocath Ag catheter is designed to be temporarily implanted (less than 30 days) for the drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to reduce and control increased intracranial pressure (ICP).
Technology Characteristies: The fundamental scientific technology of the Neurocatio Ag is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
Summary of Design Control Activities:
Blocompatibility testing of the material demonstrate that it is nonirritant and non-toxic. Performance testing demonstrates that the changes do not affect safety or efficacy. Risk Assessment was conducted in compliance with ISO 14971.
Conclusion:
The only change between the prodicate device (Fifth Ventricle Drainage Catheter K800168 and K853365) and the preamendment prodicate device and the Neurocath Ag is the change in material from barium impregnated silicone and silver impregnated silicone, respectively, to polyurethane impregnated with silver ions. Biocompatibility testing, performance testing and risk assessment demonstrate that the Neurocath Ag is safe and effective to use, when used in accordance with the supplied instructions for use.

Dear Courtney Smith:
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.
