Intended Use
Delivery of approximately 1 ml of sperm into the uterus over 3-4 hours using a controlled release pump.
Device Description
The IUI Catheter is a balloon catheter for slow release insemination. The catheter is placed in the uterus and sperm is injected through the catheter. The kit includes a standard BD 3 ml syringe and a mechanical actuator, as well as an ancillary component, a leg strap. Sperm is loaded into the syringe which is attached to the IUI catheter. The syringe is placed in a plastic, spring loaded mechanical actuator to press on the syringe plunger and deliver the sperm over a 3-4 hour period.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description details a purely mechanical system for controlled release, with no mention of AI or ML components or functions.

No
The device facilitates the delivery of sperm but does not itself provide a therapeutic effect or treatment of a disease or condition. Its purpose is to aid in the process of insemination.

No
Explanation: The device is described as an IUI Catheter designed for the delivery of sperm into the uterus, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a catheter, syringe, mechanical actuator, and leg strap, indicating it is a hardware device with mechanical function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is the "Delivery of approximately 1 ml of sperm into the uterus over 3-4 hours using a controlled release pump." This describes a procedure performed on the patient's body (in vivo), not a test performed on a sample taken from the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The device is a catheter and a mechanical actuator designed to deliver a substance into the uterus. This is a delivery system, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes a sample to provide information about a patient's health status.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information. The device's function is purely mechanical delivery.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Legally Marketed Devices To Which Substantial Equivalence Is Claimed:

K032835 H/S Catheter

Device Description: The IUI Catheter is a balloon catheter for slow release insemination. The catheter is placed in the uterus and sperm is injected through the catheter. The kit includes a standard BD 3 ml syringe and a mechanical actuator, as well as an ancillary component, a leg strap. Sperm is loaded into the syringe which is attached to the IUI catheter. The syringe is placed in a plastic, spring loaded mechanical actuator to press on the syringe plunger and deliver the sperm over a 3-4 hour period.

Intended Use: The delivery of sperm into the uterus. The predicate device is intended for the delivery of contrast media or saline into the uterus.

Summary of Technologies: The IUI Catheter has the identical technologies as the predicate device. The IUI Catheter is identical in materials and function to CRI's presently marketed product. Cat. No. TMI 1154, without the placement sheath; without the pinch clamp, and with depth marks printed on the catheter shaft.

Non-clinical/Clinical Testing: Biocompatibility, endotoxin, HSSA, sterility validation, mechanical function, and shelf life testing were completed to document safety and effectiveness of this device. In addition a small clinical trial was included in the testing results, and which lent support to the safety and effectiveness of the device. In conclusion, we feel the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate.
