The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a guidewire, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No.
The device facilitates the placement of other interventional catheters and leads, but does not directly treat a medical condition or disease.
No
Explanation: The device, a guidewire, is intended to facilitate the placement of catheters, not to diagnose a medical condition. While it aids in procedures that might be diagnostic, the device itself doesn't perform diagnostic functions. The mention of "greater visibility on x-ray equipment" refers to its radiopacity for procedural guidance, not for generating diagnostic images itself.
No
The device description clearly details a physical guidewire made of stainless steel, platinum tungsten, and polymer tubing. It undergoes physical performance testing, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "facilitate the selective placement of interventional catheters... and Biotronik coronary venous leads" within the coronary and peripheral vasculature. This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a procedural purpose, not a device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the body for diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The description details a physical guidewire designed to be inserted into blood vessels. This aligns with an interventional device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or diagnostic assays, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.
The device is an interventional medical device used during procedures guided by imaging (x-ray).
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Streamer Polymer guide wires are intended for use in the coronary and peripheral vasculature to facilitate the selective placement of interventional catheters with compatible guidewire lumen and Biotronik coronary venous leads.

Device Description
The Biotronik Streamer polymer guide wire is a disposable medical device designed for single use only. It consists of a PTFE coated 195cm 0.014" diameter stainless steel core wire, one end of which is reduced in diameter over a 38cm segment in a progressive fashion through a centreless grinding operation. The profile of this reduced section affords the product a reduced area of stiffness and is varied to produce 3 unique levels of support, standard support, extra support (ES) and extra distal support (XT). There are a total of 8 versions of the guidewire, 2 standard support versions (straight & J), 4 extra support versions (straight and ), Bulach and Berlin) and 2 extra distal support versions (straight & J}.
The distal part of the reduced section is covered with a platinum tungsten spring coil of equivalent diameter to the main core body. This provides greater visibility on x-ray equipment. A 30cm length of blue heat shrink polymer tubing is applied over the tapered distal end of the wire and ground to form a constant outer diameter, OD. The polymer jacket over distal coils provides for smoother lead-guidewire interaction.

Biotronik Streamer Polymer Guidewire Guidewire Catheter, Guidewire Class II, 21 CFR §870.1330
(4) Summary of Substantial Equivalence
Predicate devices: Brivant Guidewire (K060551) and Whisper EDS Guidewire (K030019)
The Streamer Polymer Guidewires have minor design differences from the predicate Brivant guidewire and Whisper EDS Guidewire.
The Streamer Polymer guide wires are intended for use in the coronary and peripheral vasculature to facilitate the selective placement of interventional catheters with compatible guidewire lumen and Biotronik coronary venous leads. The intended use is similar to that of the Whisper EDS and the Brivant guidewire with features of the Streamer intended use incorporated into both predicates.
The techological characteristics of the Streamer Guidewire and the predicate guidewires are closely similar. Where there are differences these differences are minor such that they do not affect safety or effectiveness. Brivant have conducted testing which compares the techical similarities between the Streamer Guidewire and predicate devices and this data demonstrates that the minor technical differences have not diminished safety or effectiveness
