Intended Use
The Bidirectional Guiding Sheath is intended for introducing various cardiovascular catheters into the heart, including the left side of the heart through the interatrial septum.
Device Description
The MobiCath™ Bidirectional Guiding Sheath is an 8.5 French, flexible tipped percutaneous catheter introducer (or guiding sheath) designed for gaining access to the coronary systems. The device features adjustable tip geometry that allows deflection of the distal portion of the device bi-directionally 150°. This feature provides steerability to facilitate the delivery of therapeutic devices into the heart including the left atrium, using minimally invasive techniques. The sheath is fitted with a hemostatic valve which minimizes blood loss and air intake by providing hemostasis sealing to venous pressures as well as reduce dilator insertion and removal force. The sheath is also equipped with a sideport attached to a segment of extension tubing terminating in a 3-way stopcock. The sheath and dilator contain radiopaque material for visualization under fluoroscopy.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical and structural features of a guiding sheath, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as a "guiding sheath" designed to "facilitate the delivery of therapeutic devices into the heart," indicating it is an accessory for therapy rather than a therapeutic device itself.

No

The device description clearly states it is designed for "introducing various cardiovascular catheters into the heart" and to "facilitate the delivery of therapeutic devices," indicating its primary function is for interventional procedures, not diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter introducer (guiding sheath) with mechanical features (adjustable tip geometry, hemostatic valve, sideport) and radiopaque material for visualization under fluoroscopy. This is a hardware device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "introducing various cardiovascular catheters into the heart." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a medical procedure, not a device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens like blood or tissue for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter introducer designed for insertion into the body. It mentions features like steerability, a hemostatic valve, and a sideport, all related to facilitating a medical procedure within the cardiovascular system.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the "Heart," which is an internal organ. IVDs typically analyze samples taken from the body, not devices inserted into the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

Therefore, the MobiCath™ Bidirectional Guiding Sheath is a medical device used for a therapeutic or interventional procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The MobiCath™ Bidirectional Guiding Sheath passed all verification specification criteria for dimensional, strength, functional, packaging, sterilization, biocompatibility and shelf life tests. Test results confirm the device performs as intended without raising additional questions of safety and efficacy when compared to the predicates. Given the similar technological characteristics and principles of operation of the MobiCath™ Bidirectional Guiding Sheath and the predicate devices, it was determined that no animal or clinical study was deemed necessary.

Dear Ms. Fox:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of November 26, 2010.

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.
