Intended Use
For patients aged 18 and older, the Relieva Seeker Balloon Sinuplasty System is intended to provide a means to access the frontal sinus space and to dilate the frontal recess, frontal sinus ostia and spaces within the frontal sinus cavity for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. In addition, the device is intended to illuminate within and transilluminate across nasal and sinus structures.
Device Description
The Relieva Seeker Balloon Sinuplasty System (Seeker) is an integrated device with a low-profile rail, balloon catheter, sinus illumination system with an illuminated ball tip, and a handle. The sinus balloon may be inflated to dilate the frontal recess, frontal sinus ostia, and spaces within the frontal sinus cavity.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical device for dilation and illumination, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven algorithms.

Yes
The intended use explicitly states the device is for "diagnostic and therapeutic procedures," and its function involves dilating frontal sinus spaces, which is a therapeutic action.

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

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "integrated device with a low-profile rail, balloon catheter, sinus illumination system with an illuminated ball tip, and a handle," which are all hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes a device used for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures within the frontal sinus. This involves physically accessing, dilating, and illuminating structures within the body.
  • Device Description: The device description details a system with a rail, balloon catheter, illumination system, and handle, all designed for physical intervention within the sinus cavity.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not involve the analysis of biological specimens outside the body.

The device is clearly intended for direct use within the patient's body for both diagnostic (illumination) and therapeutic (dilation) purposes. This aligns with the definition of a medical device used in vivo, not an IVD.

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

Bench testing met all acceptance criteria for attributes such as dimensional attributes, cycle fatigue, balloon burst, and bond separation. Testing also showed that the Seeker Balloon Sinuplasty System is biocompatible. Sterilization of the subject device is achieved by ethylene oxide, which was validated according to AAMI/ANSI/ISO 11135-1: 2007 and demonstrated a sterility assurance level of 10 °. The method used for sterilization validation was the overkill (half-cycle approach) in a fixed chamber. Ethylene oxide residuals were tested and met ISO 10993-7:2008 requirements. The subject device is not tested nor labeled as "non-pyrogenic". Packaging shelf life was established per ASTM F1980-07, ISTA 2A:2011, ASTM F88-09, ASTM F2096-11, F1886, and F1929-98 requirements. Clinical data were not necessary for the Seeker Balloon Sinuplasty System. The performance data demonstrate that the device performs as intended.

Indications for Use:

For patients aged 18 and older, the Relieva Seeker Balloon Sinuplasty System is intended to provide a means to access the frontal sinus space and to dilate the frontal recess, frontal sinus ostia and spaces within the frontal sinus cavity for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. In addition, the device is intended to illuminate within and transilluminate across nasal and sinus structures.

Technological Characteristics: The Seeker Balloon Sinuplasty System combines features of a frontal ostium seeker with the tissue expansion effect of balloon dilation. The distal end of the device is permanently curved to optimize frontal ostium access. Light from an extendable integrated illumination system can be seen via transillumination.

Performance Data:

Bench testing met all acceptance criteria for attributes such as dimensional attributes, cycle fatigue, balloon burst, and bond separation. Testing also showed that the Seeker Balloon Sinuplasty System is biocompatible.

Sterilization of the subject device is achieved by ethylene oxide, which was validated according to AAMI/ANSI/ISO 11135-1: 2007 and demonstrated a sterility assurance level of 10 °.
