No
The document describes a physical medical device (sheath introducer) and its intended use, without any mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
No
The device is described as an introducer sheath intended to facilitate the introduction of other devices for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, and can also be used for temporary hemodialysis. It is an access device, not a device that directly performs therapy.
No
The device is described as an introducer sheath intended to provide access for other devices, and while it mentions "diagnostic and therapeutic procedures," it itself is not performing the diagnosis. It's a tool to facilitate access, not to diagnose.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a sheath introducer, hemostasis valve, side port extension tubing, and vessel dilator. It also mentions being marketed with or without a guide wire and/or access needle. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for providing access and facilitating the introduction of devices into veins and/or arteries for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, and for temporary hemodialysis. This involves direct interaction with the patient's vascular system.
- Device Description: The description details a physical device (sheath introducer, dilator, tubing) used for accessing blood vessels.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to directly access or manipulate structures within the body. This device is a medical device used for interventional procedures.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Merit's Prelude® Short Sheath Introducer is intended to provide access and facilitate the percutaneous introduction of various devices into veins and/or arteries while maintaining hemostasis for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. This device can also provide access to a native or synthetic graft used for hemodialysis. The side port of the sheath allows adequate flow to perform temporary hemodialysis. The device is not indicated for long term vascular or hemodialysis access.

Device Description
The Prelude® Short Sheath Introducer (PSS) consists of a sheath introducer with integral hemostasis valve. The side port extension tubing extending from the sheath hub may be used to infuse solutions and/or for temporary hemodialysis. A vessel dilator snaps securely into the sheath introducer hub. The PSS devices are available in 5 French (F) through 8F sizes in 4cm effective length. The vessel dilator is tipped specifically to accept either a 0.038" (0.97mm) or a 0.018" (0.46mm) diameter guide wire. The device is marketed with and without an appropriately sized guide wire and/or access needle.

Dear Ms. Hendrickson:
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. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmarket surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics' (OSB's) Division of Postmarket Surveillance at 240-276-3474. For questions regarding the reporting of device adverse events (Medical Device Reporting (MDR)), please contact the Division of Surveillance Systems at 240-276-3464.
