The 510(k) summary describes a simple introducer sheath with a silicone pinch valve and a minor modification to add a new size. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The device is purely mechanical.
No
The device is used to facilitate the introduction of other medical devices into the vasculature and minimize blood loss, not to treat a specific medical condition.
No
This device is an introducer sheath used to facilitate the introduction of catheters and other medical devices into the vasculature. Its function is to provide access, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is an "Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve," which are physical hardware components used in medical procedures. The modification is adding a new size to this physical product line.
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 used to "facilitate the introduction of catheters and other medical devices into the vasculature." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a procedural purpose, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics and function of an introducer sheath, which is a tool used during medical procedures.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit that description.

Device Predicate:
K032073 GORE Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve
Device Description:
This 510(k) is being submitted for a minor modification to the product configuration made to the GORE Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve cleared under K032073. The proposed modification that is subject of this 510(k) submission is to offer an additional 18Fr size introducer sheath to the current product line. No other changes are being made to the GORE Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve or its packaging as cleared under K032073.

Statement of Intended Use:
The GORE Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve is intended for use to facilitate the introduction of catheters and other medical devices into the vasculature and to minimize blood los associated with such introduction.
Note: The intended use of the modified device, as described in its labeling, has not changed as a result of the modification.
Technological Characteristics:
The sole difference between the predicate GORE Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve and the GORE Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve which is subject of this 510(k) submission is the additional 18Fr device size.
Substantial Equivalence:
A variety of tests, assessments, and comparisons demonstrate that the GORE Introducer Sheath with Silicone Pinch Valve is substantially equivalent to its predicate in terms of design, intended use, principle of operation, and performance attributes.
Differences between the predicate GORE Introducer Sheath device and the proposed GORE Introducer Sheath device with the additional 18Fr device size do not raise any significant issues of safety or effectiveness.

Dear Ms. Hemphill:
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.
