No
The device description focuses on mechanical components and a magnetic drive system for clearing the drainage tube. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is intended to prevent fluid accumulation post-surgery, which is a therapeutic function aimed at improving patient outcomes by managing a medical condition.
No
The device is described as an "adjunctive device" used to prevent fluid accumulation post-surgery, not to diagnose a condition. Its function is drainage, not diagnostic imaging or analysis.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a silicone drainage tube, shuttle assembly, guide tube, and a magnetically driven clearance apparatus. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to prevent fluid accumulation within the operative site after closure of the surgical wound during open surgical procedures. This is a therapeutic and post-surgical management function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device is a drainage tube with a mechanism to clear blockages. It collects fluid from the body, but it does not analyze or test this fluid to provide diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of any components or processes that would involve analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a disease or condition.
- Performance Studies: The performance study focuses on user preference, ease of use, and adequacy of drainage, not on the accuracy or reliability of any diagnostic results.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The PleuraFlow Catheter's function is purely mechanical drainage and clearance.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The PleuraFlow Catheter is indicated for use as an adjunctive device during open surgical procedures in order to prevent fluid accumulation within the operative site after closure of the surgical wound. The device is indicated for use in thoracic surgical procedures.

Device Description
The PleuraFlow Catheter System is comprised of a silicone drainage tube and a shuttle assembly and guide tube. The PleuraFlow drainage tube is 20 inches in length with graduated measurements in inches from the first side hole and will be available in standard sizes from 20Fr to 32Fr versions. There is a barium stripe in the tube to facilitate visualization. A connector at the proximal end of the device connects to a commercially available drainage system. Within the catheter is a tube clearance apparatus to facilitate clearing of the drainage tube. The tube clearance apparatus is composed of a PTFE-coated guide wire that has a loop set on its distal end, bent at a 90-degree angle. The clearance apparatus is sized such that it cannot exit the end of the drainage tube or the side holes. The tube clearance apparatus is magnetically driven by an attached internal magnet coupled to an external magnet contained within the shuttle assembly.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
A total of 19 patients were enrolled in a User Preference Study. Patients undergoing cardiac surgery through a median sternotomy had two chest tubes placed in the midline; one standard chest tube and a PleuraFlow system. A study questionnaire was completed by the surgeon placing the chest tube, the nurse taking care of the patient prior to removal of the chest tube, and by the Physician Assistant or Resident who removed the chest tube. Findings from the study indicated that the time for assembly and ease of placement were acceptable to the surgeons, and that ease of use of the clearance mechanism and adequacy of chest tube clearance were acceptable to the ICU nurses. It was concluded that the device was helpful and easy to use, and performed as intended in the clinical setting.

| Proprietary Name: | PleuraFlow Catheter System |
| Common Name: | Accessory to powered suction pump |
| Regulatory Class: | II |
| Product Codes: | OTK |
| Predicate Device(s): | The primary predicate device used to demonstrate substantial
equivalence is the Deutsch Anti-Blockage Wound Drain
(K052286). |
| Device Description: | The PleuraFlow Catheter System is comprised of a silicone
drainage tube and a shuttle assembly and guide tube. The
PleuraFlow drainage tube is 20 inches in length with
graduated measurements in inches from the first side hole
and will be available in standard sizes from 20Fr to 32Fr
versions. There is a barium stripe in the tube to facilitate
visualization. A connector at the proximal end of the device
connects to a commercially available drainage system.
Within the catheter is a tube clearance apparatus to facilitate
clearing of the drainage tube. The tube clearance apparatus is

its distal end, bent at a 90-degree angle. The clearance apparatus is sized such that it cannot exit the end of the drainage tube or the side holes. The tube clearance apparatus is magnetically driven by an attached internal magnet coupled to an external magnet contained within the shuttle assembly.
Indication for use: The PleuraFlow Catheter is indicated for use as an adjunctive device during open surgical procedures in order to prevent fluid accumulation within the operative site after closure of the surgical wound.
The device is indicated for use in thoracic surgical procedures.
Substantial Equivalence:
The PleuraFlow Catheter has the same or similar intended use, indications for use, principle of operation, and performance characteristics as predicate devices and is, therefore, substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
Performance Data: The safety and effectiveness of the PleuraFlow Catheter has been demonstrated through data collected from clinical and nonclinical bench tests and analysis.
A total of 19 patients were enrolled in a User Preference Study. Patients undergoing cardiac surgery through a median sternotomy had two chest tubes placed in the midline; one standard chest tube and a PleuraFlow system. A study questionnaire was completed by the surgeon placing the chest tube, the nurse taking care of the patient prior to removal of the chest tube, and by the Physician Assistant or Resident who removed the chest tube. Findings from the study indicated that the time for assembly and ease of placement were acceptable to the surgeons, and that ease of use of the clearance mechanism and adequacy of chest tube clearance were acceptable to the ICU nurses. It was concluded that the device was helpful and easy to use, and performed as intended in the clinical setting.
Conclusion:
The evaluation of the PleuraFlow Catheter does not raise any additional concerns regarding safety and effectiveness and may therefore be considered substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
