No
The device description and intended use focus on a mechanical catheter with an inflatable balloon for delivering fluids. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.
No
The device is used for the delivery of contrast media or saline for diagnostic examination of the female reproductive tract, not for treating a condition.
Yes
The device is used to deliver contrast media or saline for examination of the uterus and fallopian tubes, specifically to identify conditions like polyps, fibroids, adhesions, endometrial thickening, or evaluate fallopian tube patency. This process of identifying disease or conditions is diagnostic in nature.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter with a balloon, stopcock, lumen, luer connector, and introducing sheath. These are all hardware components, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is NOT an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside the body (in vitro).
- Device Function: The "Advance Catheter for HSG and SIS" is a device used to deliver substances (contrast media or saline) into the body (the female reproductive tract) for imaging purposes. It is an instrument used during a diagnostic procedure, but it does not perform a diagnostic test on a sample taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the "delivery of contrast media or saline during hysterosalpingogram (HSG) and saline infusion sonohysterography (SIS) into the female reproductive tract for examination of the uterus and/or fallopian tubes." This describes a procedure involving imaging, not an in vitro test.
- Device Description: The description details a catheter with a balloon and lumen for fluid delivery, consistent with a device used for internal procedures.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, reagents, or performing tests on bodily fluids or tissues outside the body.
Therefore, the "Advance Catheter for HSG and SIS" is a medical device used in diagnostic imaging procedures, but it is not an In Vitro Diagnostic device itself.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of "The Advance Catheter for HSG and SIS" is for the delivery of contrast media or saline during hysterosalpingogram (HSG) and saline infusion sonohysterography (SIS) into the female reproductive tract for examination of the uterus and/or fallopian tubes.
The following are some clinical indications: suspected polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or endometrial thickening, and/or selective evaluation of fallopian tube patency.

Device Description
The "The Advance Catheter for HSG and SIS (Advance Catheter) consist of a plastic tube, the distal end of which has an inflatable balloon. When the balloon is inflated inside the uterus, the device seals the cervix. A stopcock is provided at the proximal end of the device to allow inflation of the balloon with a syringe. The center lumen is open through the device to the distal end, and the device has a luer connector at the proximal end for injecting fluids.
An introducing sheath is placed over the tube to provide a stiffener and quide. The sheath can be placed into the endocervix to the level of the internal os with no dilatation required; therefore, allowing the catheter to pass easily through the cervix and into the uterine cavity. The Advance catheter like its predicate will be available in 5F and 7F sizes.

§ 884.4530 Obstetric-gynecologic specialized manual instrument.
(a)
Identification. An obstetric-gynecologic specialized manual instrument is one of a group of devices used during obstetric-gynecologic procedures to perform manipulative diagnostic and surgical functions (e.g., dilating, grasping, measuring, and scraping), where structural integrity is the chief criterion of device performance. This type of device consists of the following:(1) An amniotome is an instrument used to rupture the fetal membranes.
(2) A circumcision clamp is an instrument used to compress the foreskin of the penis during circumcision of a male infant.
(3) An umbilical clamp is an instrument used to compress the umbilical cord.
(4) A uterine curette is an instrument used to scrape and remove material from the uterus.
(5) A fixed-size cervical dilator is any of a series of bougies of various sizes used to dilate the cervical os by stretching the cervix.
(6) A uterine elevator is an instrument inserted into the uterus used to lift and manipulate the uterus.
(7) A gynecological surgical forceps is an instrument with two blades and handles used to pull, grasp, or compress during gynecological examination.
(8) A cervical cone knife is a cutting instrument used to excise and remove tissue from the cervix.
(9) A gynecological cerclage needle is a looplike instrument used to suture the cervix.
(10) A hook-type contraceptive intrauterine device (IUD) remover is an instrument used to remove an IUD from the uterus.
(11) A gynecological fibroid screw is an instrument used to hold onto a fibroid.
(12) A uterine sound is an instrument used to determine the depth of the uterus by inserting it into the uterine cavity.
(13) A cytological cervical spatula is a blunt instrument used to scrape and remove cytological material from the surface of the cervix or vagina.
(14) A gynecological biopsy forceps is an instrument with two blades and handles used for gynecological biopsy procedures.
(15) A uterine tenaculum is a hooklike instrument used to seize and hold the cervix or fundus.
(16) An internal pelvimeter is an instrument used within the vagina to measure the diameter and capacity of the pelvis.
(17) A nonmetal vaginal speculum is a nonmetal instrument used to expose the interior of the vagina.
(18) A fiberoptic nonmetal vaginal speculum is a nonmetal instrument, with fiberoptic light, used to expose and illuminate the interior of the vagina.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an umbilical clamp with or without a cutter, a uterine tenaculum which is sterile and does not use suction and is intended for single use, a nonmetal vaginal speculum, or a fiberoptic nonmetal vaginal speculum, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.(2) Class I for the amniotome, uterine curette, cervical dilator (fixed-size bougies), cerclage needle, IUD remover, uterine sound, and gynecological biopsy forceps. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 884.9.

Dear Mr. Diouf:
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.
