No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties of standard medical device components, with no mention of AI/ML, image processing, or data-driven analysis.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended for "diagnostic and therapeutic purposes."

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended for "diagnostic and therapeutic purposes."

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components (introducer needle, guide wire, dilator, percutaneous sheath introducer) and the performance studies focus on the physical properties and interactions of these hardware components. There is no mention of software as a component or its function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "percutaneous introduction of devices into the radial artery for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for accessing a blood vessel, not a device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens like blood, tissue, or urine.
  • Device Description: The components listed (introducer needle, guide wire, dilator, sheath introducer) are all instruments used for accessing and navigating within the circulatory system in vivo.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens, reagents, or any processes typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

Therefore, this device is a medical device used for accessing the radial artery in vivo, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies

To demonstrate safety and functional efficacy of the TransRadial Artery Access devices, the following tests were performed on the device components and met acceptability requirements:

  • Biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993-1: cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, systemic toxicity, hemocompatibility, and rabbit pyrogen
  • Introducer needle testing: surface, bevel, and needle point visual inspections, corrosion resistance, radiodetectability, hub to cannula and guidewire interface, hub female luer lock testing (air and liquid leakage, separation force, unscrewing torque, ease of assembly, resistance to overriding, and stress cracking), strength of union of needle tube and needle hub, penetration force, and needle bevel alignment and dimensional analysis
  • introducer testing: surface visual inspection. · Sheath radiodetectability, freedom from leakage from sheath introducer, freedom from leakage through hemostasis valve, sidearm stopcock hub luer lock testing (air and liquid leakage, separation force, unscrewing torque, ease of assembly, resistance to overriding, and stress cracking), force at break between sheath introducer and the junction between sheath introducer and the hub (hemostasis valve), and force at break between hemostasis valve body barb to side arm extrusion and side arm extrusion to stopcock
  • Guide wire testing: surface visual inspection, lateral stiffness, corrosion resistance, radiodetectability, fracture, flexing, strength of union of core wire and coil, and tensile strength pull testing
  • Dilator testing: surface visual inspection, radiodetectability, dilator hub luer slip testing (air and liquid leakage, separation force, stress cracking), and strength of union between hub and dilator
  • Sheath/dilator assembly testing: sheath/dilator rollback upon insertion, sheath/dilator insertion force, sheath/dilator assembly rigidity, and sheath and dilator dimensional inspections
  • Overall device component compatibility testing

Description of the device:The TransRadial Artery Access devices are comprised of the
components required to perform percutaneous transradial artery
access: an introducer needle, a guide wire, a dilator, and a
percutaneous sheath introducer with hemostasis valve and sidearm
assembly with a stopcock.
Intended use of the
device:The TransRadial Artery Access Device is intended for use for
percutaneous introduction of devices into the radial artery for
diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
Technological
characteristics:The TransRadial Artery Access devices use the same fundamental
technology as the aforementioned predicate percutaneous catheter
introducer devices. All provide the device components necessary
for introduction of a catheter into a vessel using the Seldinger
technique.
Performance tests:To demonstrate safety and functional efficacy of the TransRadial
Artery Access devices, the following tests were performed on the
device components and met acceptability requirements:
• Biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993-1: cytotoxicity,
