Intended Use
The Rotablator™ Rotational Atherectomy System with the Peripheral RotaLink™ Plus is intended to ablate occlusive material and restore luminal patency in the peripheral vasculature. The Rotablator™ Rotational Atherectomy System is intended for percutaneous use in peripheral vessels in patients with occlusive atherosclerotic disease who are acceptable candidates for endovascular procedures.
Device Description
The Rotablator Rotational Atherectomy System with the Peripheral RotaLink Plus is a catheter based angioplasty device that utilizes a high speed, rotating, diamond-coated burr to ablate occlusive material and restore luminal patency. The burr spins at up to 190,000 RPM and ablates material into very fine particles that are carried distally and removed via the reticuloendothelial system. There are three main components that comprise the Rotablator Rotational Atherectomy: 1) the Peripheral RotaLink Plus, 2) Peripheral RotaWire Guidewire with the wireClip Torquer, and 3) Rotablator Console with Dynaglide foot pedal. Rotaglide, a lubricant is also available as an accessory.

No
The description focuses on mechanical ablation and does not mention any AI/ML components or functions.

Yes
The device is used to ablate occlusive material and restore luminal patency in peripheral vessels, thus treating a medical condition.

No

This device is designed to ablate occlusive material and restore luminal patency in peripheral vessels, which describes a therapeutic or interventional function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a catheter, burr, guidewire, console, and foot pedal. It is a physical medical device with software likely controlling some functions, but it is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "ablate occlusive material and restore luminal patency in the peripheral vasculature." This describes a therapeutic procedure performed directly on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a "catheter based angioplasty device that utilizes a high speed, rotating, diamond-coated burr to ablate occlusive material." This is a surgical/interventional tool.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "peripheral vessels," which are part of the living body.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the body to provide information about a person's health. This device operates within the body to treat a condition.

Dear Ms. Torok:

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.
