Intended Use
The Merit MAK® (Mini Access Kit) is intended for percutaneous placement of a 0.035" (0.89mm) or 0.038" (0.97mm) guide wire into the vascular system.
Device Description
The Merit MAK® (Mini Access Kit) utilizes a small diameter coaxial introducer/dilator pair and guide wire for placement of larger diameter guide wires into the vasculature system when a small needle stick is preferred. The Merit MAK® consists of the following components: One (1) 4F or 5F Coaxial Introducer/Dilator Pair One (1) 21 gauge Introducer Needle One (1) 0.018" (0.46mm) Guide Wire Two new versions of guide wires will be offered: Stainless Steel Wire with Palladium Tip Nitinol Wire with Palladium Tip
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use describe a mechanical access kit for placing guide wires, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No
The device is described as an introducer kit intended for percutaneous placement of guide wires, which facilitates access to the vascular system for other procedures, rather than directly treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an access kit for placing guide wires into the vascular system, which is a procedural function, not a diagnostic one. It facilitates access for other procedures rather than providing information about a patient's condition.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components such as introducers, dilators, needles, and guide wires, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

Based on the provided information, the Merit MAK® (Mini Access Kit) is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "percutaneous placement of a 0.035" (0.89mm) or 0.038" (0.97mm) guide wire into the vascular system." This describes a procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
  • Device Description: The components listed (introducer/dilator pair, needle, guide wire) are all instruments used for accessing and navigating within the vascular system. They are not reagents, analyzers, or other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostic testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

In summary, the Merit MAK® is a medical device used for a procedural purpose within the patient's body, not for performing diagnostic tests on samples outside the body.

Dear Ms. Christensen:

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. Drue, 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 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.
