Intended Use
This catheter is recommended for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) of the femoral, iliac, and renal arteries. These catheters are not designed to be used in the coronary arteries.
Device Description
The Mini Ghost PTA Catheter is a coaxial catheter indicated for PTA of small vessels outside of the heart. This catheter is not intended for use in the coronary arteries. The catheter consists of a 3.5F polyamide outer shaft with a distally mounted balloon. The catheter terminates proximally in a bifurcated Y sleeve with separate extensions for the balloon and the guidewire. The inner tubing extends through the balloon and accommodates a 0.018" guidewire. The lumen has radiopaque platinum marker bands under the balloon shoulders for placement using fluoroscopy. The catheter balloon diameter is stamped onto the Y sleeve and the balloon extension is labeled with balloon diameter x balloon length x introducer size x shaft size x usable length x guidewire size and the catheter lot number. The catheter is packaged in a polyethylene sheath and is double packed in two heat sealed Tyvek pouches.

No
The device description and intended use focus solely on the physical components and function of a PTA catheter, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

Yes
The device is a medical catheter used for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) to open constricted arteries, which is a therapeutic procedure.

No

Explanation: The device, a Mini Ghost PTA Catheter, is used for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) to treat blockages in arteries. Its function is interventional (therapeutic) rather than diagnostic, as it is used to open vessels, not to identify or characterize a disease. While it uses fluoroscopy for placement, this is for guidance during the interventional procedure, not for diagnostic imaging itself.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter with a balloon, shafts, guidewire lumen, and radiopaque markers, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that this is a catheter used for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) of arteries. This is a medical procedure performed within the body, not a test on a sample outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for a therapeutic procedure (PTA) to open narrowed arteries, not for diagnostic testing of a sample.

Therefore, the Mini Ghost PTA Catheter is a medical device used for a therapeutic intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

• This catheter is recommended for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) of the femoral, iliac, and renal arteries. These catheters are not designed to be used in the coronary arteries.

Dear Ms. LaFlesh:

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 Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Postmarket Surveillance at 240-276-3474.
