The device description focuses on the mechanical components and function of a steerable guide catheter and dilator. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any software-driven analytical capabilities. The performance studies are based on in vitro mechanical and physical tests.
No.
The device is described as a steerable guide catheter used for introducing other cardiovascular catheters, acting as a conduit rather than providing a therapeutic effect itself.
No
The device is a steerable guide catheter used for introducing other cardiovascular catheters, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a catheter shaft, handle, steering knob, valves, and a dilator, indicating it is a hardware medical 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 introduce cardiovascular catheters into the left side of the heart. This is a procedural device used in vivo (within the body) for a medical intervention.
- Device Description: The description details a physical catheter and dilator designed for insertion into the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. IVDs are typically used to test samples outside the body to diagnose or monitor conditions.
Therefore, the Evalve Steerable Guide Catheter is a medical device used for a therapeutic or interventional procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Steerable Guide Catheter consists of a Steerable Guide (Guide) and a Dilator provided EO sterile and for single-use only. The Steerable Guide Catheter consists of a distal and proximal catheter shaft, a radiopaque tip ring, a handle with a steering knob, a hemostasis valve with a luer lock flush port, a Dilator with a single central lumen and an atraumatic distal tip. The central lumen of the Guide allows for aspiration of air and infusion of fluids such as saline, and serves as a conduit during introduction and or exchange of the Dilator and ancillary devices (e.g. catheters) that have a maximum diameter of .204". The atraumatic distal tip of the Steerable Guide Catheter is radiopaque to allow visualization under fluoroscopy. The Dilator consists of a radiopaque shaft, an echogenic feature at the distal tip, a hemostasis valve with a flush port and an internal lumen designed to accept ancillary devices that have a maximum diameter of 0.035" (e.g. needles or guidewires). The Steerable Guide Catheter and Dilator are packaged in two sealed Tyvek pouches, and boxed in a shelf-cardboard carton.
