Intended Use
The AOS Orion Ir-192 Source Cable is a sealed radionuclide brachytherapy source to be placed onto a body surface or into a body cavity or tissue as a source of nuclear radiation for therapy. This device is the replaceable Ir-192 source for the Nucletron Corp. MicroSelectron HDR V2 and V3 Afterloaders.
Device Description
The AOS Orion Ir-192 Source Cable (Model No. CSO0012-192) is a nominal 12 Curie Iridium-192 source cable for use in the Nucletron microSelectron HDR Version 2 (Model No. 105.99) and the Nucletron microSelectron V3 (Model No. 106.990) Remote Afterloaders.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a radioactive source cable for brachytherapy, a purely mechanical and radioactive component, with no mention of AI or ML in its function or testing.

Yes
The 'Intended Use / Indications for Use' section explicitly states that the device is "a source of nuclear radiation for therapy."

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "sealed radionuclide brachytherapy source... as a source of nuclear radiation for therapy." It is used for therapeutic purposes, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device is a physical radioactive source cable used in brachytherapy, not a software application.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "sealed radionuclide brachytherapy source to be placed onto a body surface or into a body cavity or tissue as a source of nuclear radiation for therapy." This describes a therapeutic device used in vivo (within the body) for treatment.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such examination of specimens.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "nominal 12 Curie Iridium-192 source cable" for use in remote afterloaders, which are used for delivering radiation therapy.

The information provided consistently points to a therapeutic device used for radiation treatment, not a diagnostic device used for analyzing samples outside the body.

1 The AOS Orion Ir-192 Source Cable is a one piece cable constructed of a 1x7 nitinol inner core with a 6 Wire Crosslaid Stainless Steel Outer Wrap. Performance testing has demonstrated that this design provides the same strength and flexibility as the 2 piece predicate cable.

² The addition of nitinol strands provides the required flexibility without the need for a smaller diameter cable attachment as found on the predicate cable.

6. Conclusion

Based on the above information, the AOS Orion Ir-192 Source Cable has been demonstrated to be equivalent to the source cable used in both predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Robnett:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of

3

medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 796-5450. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to

http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.

You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
