The device description and intended use focus on a mechanical retrieval device with grasping jaws, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts in the provided text.
No.
The device is used to retrieve foreign bodies from the vasculature, which is a diagnostic or interventional function, not a therapeutic one.
No
The device is described as a "Retrieval Device" intended for "foreign body retrieval." Its function is to physically remove objects, not to diagnose conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical medical device with grasping jaws, a flexible wire, and radio opaque material, intended for foreign body retrieval. It is not a software-only device.
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, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- Device Function: The Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device is a tool used inside the body (in vivo) to physically retrieve foreign bodies from blood vessels. It does not analyze or test biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "for foreign body retrieval" within the peripheral, neuro, and cardiovasculature. This is a therapeutic/interventional procedure, not a diagnostic test.
The device description and intended use clearly indicate it's an interventional medical device used for a physical procedure within the body, not for laboratory testing of samples.

Device Description
The Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device (ARD-HD) is a retriever with grasping jaws attached to the tip of a flexible wire. The device is designed to be used in conjunction with an off-the-shelf 0.21 in. (0.51mm) ID (inner diameter) microcatheter. The grasping jaws and the distal end of the ARD-HD device are made of radio opaque material facilitating fluoroscopic visualization. The ARD-HD is for single use only.

Trade Name: Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device, ARD-HD
Common Name: Endovascular snare device
Classification Name: Catheter, Percutaneous (21 CFR 870.1250, Product Code DOY)
Device Description:
The Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device (ARD-HD) is a retriever with grasping jaws attached to the tip of a flexible wire. The device is designed to be used in conjunction with an off-the-shelf 0.21 in. (0.51mm) ID (inner diameter) microcatheter. The grasping jaws and the distal end of the ARD-HD device are made of radio opaque material facilitating fluoroscopic visualization. The ARD-HD is for single use only.
Indications for Use:
The Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device is intended for use in the peripheral, neuro and cardiovasculature for foreign body retrieval.
Predicate Device: Alligator™ Retrieval Device; 510k # K043580, Boston Scientific, Target In-Time Retrieval Device; 510k# K014109, Microvena Corp. Amplatz Microsnare, 510k# K970668
Comparison to Predicate Devices to Support Substantial Equivalence Determination:
The information presented in the 510k shows that the Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device, ARD-HD is substantially equivalent to predicate endovascular snare devices in regards to the following aspects:
1
| Design: | The subject (Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device, ARD-HD) and
predicate device (Alligator™ Retrieval Device; 510k # K043580)
are substantially equivalent with respect to design and
technological characteristics. Both are made of similar materials
and fabricated using the same manufacturing procedures. |
|----------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Function: | The subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent with
respect to functional characteristics. The subjective device will be
provided with shorter lengths and one size larger size jaw for the
cardiovascular indication. |
| Manufacturing: | The subject and predicate devices are similar with respect to
technological manufacturing processes. |
| Materials: | The subject and predicate devices are composed of identical
material composition, all of which have an extensive clinical
history of safe use in medical devices. Although the differences in
construction and materials are incidental, the ARD-HD was tested
for biocompatibility. |
| Indications: | The subject (Alligator™-HD Retrieval Device, ARD-HD) and
predicate device (Alligator™ Retrieval Device, ARD) are
substantially equivalent with respect to the indication.
The predicate ARD is intended for use in the peripheral and
neurovasculature for foreign body retrieval.
The subject ARD-HD is intended for use in the peripheral, neuro
and cardiovasculature for foreign body retrieval.
The cardiovasculature indication was granted to the predicate
devices: Boston Scientific, Target In-Time Retrieval Device;

K970668 |
| Packaging: | The subject and predicate devices utilize identical packaging
configurations. |
| Sterilization: | The subject and predicate devices are both sterilized utilizing an
Ethylene Oxide sterilization cycle validated in accordance with
ISO 11135 - Medical Devices - Validation and Routine Control of
Ethylene Oxide Sterilization. |

Dear Dr. Cher:
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, Drug, 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act
