AI/MLSaMDIVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)TherapeuticDiagnosticis PCCP Authorized
Intended Use
GuideLiner catheters are intended to be used in conjunction with guide catheters to access discrete regions of the coronary and/or peripheral vasculature, and to facilitate placement and exchange of guidewires and other interventional devices.
Device Description
The GuideLiner is a catheter that consists of a single lumen distal tube (with a radiopaque marker band at the distal tip) secured to a proximal shaft. GuideLiner catheters are available in three sizes for use with 6F, 7F or 8F guide catheters. The catheters are packaged in a dispenser coil inside a single sterile barrier pouch and sterilized by ethylene oxide.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use describe a mechanical catheter for facilitating access and device placement, with no mention of AI/ML terms, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics.

No.
The device facilitates placement and exchange of guidewires and other interventional devices within the vasculature but does not directly treat a disease or condition itself.

No
The document states that the GuideLiner catheters are used to access blood vessels and facilitate the placement and exchange of guidewires and other interventional devices. This describes an interventional or therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "catheter" and describes physical components like a "single lumen distal tube," "proximal shaft," and "radiopaque marker band," indicating it is a physical medical device, not software only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • GuideLiner Function: The GuideLiner catheter is a device used within the body (in vivo) to facilitate the placement and exchange of other devices in the coronary and peripheral vasculature. It does not analyze specimens from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a procedural tool for accessing and navigating blood vessels, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter designed for insertion into the body, not a device for laboratory analysis.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the GuideLiner catheter is a medical device used for interventional procedures, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
