Intended Use
The Haskal™ Torque Device is intended to facilitate steering of guidewires during interventional procedures.
Device Description
The Haskal™ Torque Device is a one-piece molded unit with rows of interlocking "teeth". When the sides of the device are squeezed, the "teeth" line up and a groove is exposed in the center. The device is then positioned with the guidewire in the groove. When the sides are released, the device "teeth" close onto the guidewire to secure it firmly. The Haskal™ accommodates guidewires with diameters between 0.010 inches to 0.038 inches. The Haskal™ is designed to be mounted onto the guidewire from the side with one hand, eliminating the need for threading along the wire starting from the distal end. It can also be released from the guide wire or repositioned as the guide wire advances by squeezing it on both sides to release the wire. The Haskal™ is a sterile, non-pyrogenic single use device. It is manufactured in several colors.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and usability, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is intended to facilitate steering of guidewires, which are tools used in interventional procedures. It is a mechanical aid for a medical procedure, not a device that directly treats, cures, mitigates, or prevents a disease or condition itself.

No

The Haskal™ Torque Device is intended to facilitate the steering of guidewires during interventional procedures, which is a procedural or therapeutic function rather than a diagnostic one. It does not provide information about a patient's condition or disease state.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical, molded unit with mechanical features ("teeth", "groove") designed to interact directly with a guidewire. The performance studies also focus on physical and material properties, not software validation.

No, the Haskal™ Torque Device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "to facilitate steering of guidewires during interventional procedures." This describes a device used within the body during a medical procedure, not a device used to test samples outside the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The description details a physical tool used to manipulate a guidewire, which is consistent with an interventional device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on physical characteristics, operational forces, and biocompatibility, which are relevant to devices used in the body, not IVDs.
  • Predicate Devices: The predicate devices are also described as "Guide Wire Torque Device" and "WireClip™ Torquer," indicating they are similar tools for manipulating guidewires during procedures.

In summary, the Haskal™ Torque Device is a tool used in vivo (within the body) during interventional procedures, not a device used in vitro (outside the body) for diagnostic testing.

6. Intended Use:

The Haskal™ Torque Device is intended to facilitate steering of guidewires during interventional procedures.

7. Device Description:

The Haskal™ Torque Device is a one-piece molded unit with rows of interlocking "teeth". When the sides of the device are squeezed, the "teeth" line up and a groove is exposed in the center. The device is then positioned with the guidewire in the groove. When the sides are released, the device "teeth" close onto the guidewire to secure it firmly. The Haskal™ accommodates guidewires with diameters between 0.010 inches to 0.038 inches.

The Haskal™ is designed to be mounted onto the guidewire from the side with one hand, eliminating the need for threading along the wire starting from the distal end. It can also be released from the guide wire or repositioned as the guide wire advances by squeezing it on both sides to release the wire.

The Haskal™ is a sterile, non-pyrogenic single use device. It is manufactured in several colors.

8. Technological Characteristics:

The Haskal™ technological characteristics are the same as those of its predicate devices. It is an accessory torque device for attaching to guidewires, is compatible for use with guidewires of varying types, diameters and lengths, and can be positioned and repositioned on the quidewire. Same as the predicates, rotating the device results in steering of the guidewire.

Identical to the predicates, Haskal™ is a sterile, non-pyrogenic single use device manufactured from biocompatible materials and sterilized by ETO.

Identical to the WireClip predicate, Haskal™ is a one-piece side-mounted vise grip device. loaded by squeezing with 2 fingers to create a groove in the device into which the quidewire is placed. Release of the squeeze action allows the groove to close around the guidewire securing and firmly gripping it.

9. Summary of Supporting Data:

The Haskal™ Torque Device performance characteristics were evaluated in the following in-vitro/bench studies:

  • Packaging Environmental Endurance
  • · Dimensions Verification
  • · Device and Guidewire Axial Force
  • · Torque Force
  • · Device Operational Force
  • · Performance During Exposure to Fluids
  • · Usability
  • · Sterility Integrity and Shelf life

  • . Biocompatibility:
    • Cytotoxicity .
    • Systemic toxicity .
    • Sensitization .
    • . Irritation
    • . Subchronic toxicity
    • Genotoxicity .
    • Haemocompatibility- Hemolysis .

The torquer device remains outside the patient's body during the medical procedures and there is no contact with the blood. Therefore the Hemolysis test we perform is additional for the requirement of this device.

Results of nonclinical testing demonstrated that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed devices identified in paragraph 5 of this section.

10. Conclusion:

Elcam Medical believes that, based on the information provided in this submission, the Haskal™ Torque Device is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices without raising any new safety or effectiveness issues.

Dear Mr. Fishman:

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 or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21
