No
The description focuses on the physical characteristics, materials, and coatings of the catheter, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes.
This device is used for hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion, which are all therapeutic procedures. The device's description indicates it is a catheter used to facilitate these medical treatments.
No
The device description and intended use clearly state that the Palindrome™ Precision Symmetric Tip Dual Lumen Catheter is a catheter intended for therapeutic procedures such as hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion, not for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly details physical components such as a radiopaque shaft, lumens, luer adapters, extension tubes, clamps, a hub, suture wings, a cuff, and a tip. It also mentions coatings and sleeves applied to the physical catheter. This indicates a hardware device, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "acute and chronic hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion." These are procedures performed directly on the patient's body, not on samples taken from the body for diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The device is described as a catheter designed for insertion into the body, with features like lumens, hubs, extension tubes, and coatings. This aligns with a medical device used for treatment or access, not for in vitro testing.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
The device is a medical device used for therapeutic and access purposes within the patient's circulatory system.

Device Description
The Palindrome™ Precision Symmetric Tip Dual Lumen Catheter has a radiopaque shaft with two large D-shaped inner lumens designed in opposing configuration. The proximal end of the catheter features two color-coded luer adapters. The luer adapters are connected to clear extension tubes. Each extension tube contains a clamp and is connected to the catheter hub which contains suture wings. The distal end of the catheter hub is connected to the double lumen catheter shaft. The shaft contains a cuff and extends to a symmetrical distal tip configuration.
The Palindrome™ Precision RT Reverse-Tunneled Catheter will be supplied with a detached "proximal end" allowing for the catheter tip to be positioned in the vein first before the catheter shaft is pulled through the patient's subcutaneous tunnel tract in a retrograde fashion. The fully assembled Palindrome™ Precision RT Reverse-Tunneled Catheter has a 15.0 Fr. radiopaque shaft with two large D-shaped inner lumens designed in an opposing configuration. The proximal end of the catheter features two color-coded luer adapters. The luer adapters are connected to clear extension tubes. Each extension tube contains a clamp and is connected to the hub assembly which contains suture wings. The distal end of the catheter hub is connected to the double lumen catheter shaft. The shaft contains a cuff and extends to a symmetrical distal tip configuration.
The Palindrome™ Precision H Chronic Catheter with Heparin coating has a radiopaque polyurethane shaft with two D-shaped inner lumens designed in opposing configuration.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The existing Risk Analysis files for the chronic catheter product family were reviewed to identify the clinical risks specifically associated with the modifications related to this premarket notification. The output of Risk Analysis activities identified the need to conduct additional testing to confirm that the modified chronic catheters continued to meet the relevant acceptance criteria. The test regimen evaluated the devices’ performance. Testing included; dynamic flow, static flow, catheter insertion force, thrombogenicity, recirculation, marker band integrity, long term soak, mechanical hemolysis, leachability, tensile, heparin activity, heparin concentration and heparin durability. The results of the performance testing show that the modified devices continue to meet the relevant product specifications.

The device includes implanted blood access devices, nonimplanted blood access devices, and accessories for both the implanted and nonimplanted blood access devices.(1) The implanted blood access device is a prescription device and consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, or cannulae, which are surgically implanted in appropriate blood vessels, may come through the skin, and are intended to remain in the body for 30 days or more. This generic type of device includes various catheters, shunts, and connectors specifically designed to provide access to blood. Examples include single and double lumen catheters with cuff(s), fully subcutaneous port-catheter systems, and A-V shunt cannulae (with vessel tips). The implanted blood access device may also contain coatings or additives which may provide additional functionality to the device.
(2) The nonimplanted blood access device consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, cannulae or hollow needles, which are inserted into appropriate blood vessels or a vascular graft prosthesis (§§ 870.3450 and 870.3460), and are intended to remain in the body for less than 30 days. This generic type of device includes fistula needles, the single needle dialysis set (coaxial flow needle), and the single needle dialysis set (alternating flow needle).
(3) Accessories common to either type include the shunt adaptor, cannula clamp, shunt connector, shunt stabilizer, vessel dilator, disconnect forceps, shunt guard, crimp plier, tube plier, crimp ring, joint ring, fistula adaptor, and declotting tray (including contents).
