The summary describes a simple mechanical device for probing and retracting blood vessels, with no mention of software, data processing, or AI/ML terms.
No.
The device's intended uses (probing for blockages, measuring vessel diameter, and acting as a retractor) are diagnostic or supportive of a surgical procedure, rather than directly treating or mitigating a disease or condition.
No
The device is used to physically probe for blockages and measure vessel diameters, not to diagnose or detect medical conditions through analysis of data or symptoms.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, disposable probe with a shaft and bulbs, indicating it is a hardware device.
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 Vascular Probe is a surgical instrument used directly within the body during surgery to physically probe, measure, and retract blood vessels. It does not perform any tests on samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
Therefore, the Vascular Probe falls under the category of a surgical instrument or device used in vivo (within the body), not an IVD.

Device Description
The Vascular Probe is a sterile, single use, disposable device with a polyurethane coated streamline bulb on each end of a flexible polycarbonate or polycarbonate-polyurethane shaft. The bulbs are of different size on each end of the Vascular Probe. An appropriately-sized bulb is inserted either proximally or distally through the arteriotomy to probe the interior of the vessel and may be used by the surgeon to retract the vascular wall.
The Vascular Probe is packaged in a double sterile barrier. The contents of the unopened, undamaged container are sterile.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Biocompatibility testing was performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1 (Biological Evoluation of medical devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process). The testing performed on the Vascular Probes demonstrated the devices continue to be biocompatible and safe for their intended use.
Tensile strength testing was conducted on the Vascular Probes manufactured with the new vinyl resin and concluded that the Probes continue to meet the current Vascular Probe finished device specifications.
The safety and performance of the Vascular Probes was evaluated through biocompatibility and bench testing. The bench testing results support the performance requirements for the Vascular Probes manufactured with the new vinyl resin. Biocompatibility testing was performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1 and demonstrated the Vascular Probes remain biocompatible.

Statement of Intended Use
The Synovis Vascular Probe is intended for use during coronary and peripheral vascular surgery to probe blood vessels distally and proximally for blockages, to measure the internal diameter of vessels, and to act as an intravascular retractor.
Summary/Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The Vascular Probe is acting as its own predicate device, and is therefore substantially equivalent, having the same technological characteristics and indications for use.
A new vinyl resin utilized in the colorant of the polyurethane coating was identified for manufacturing the Vascular Probes and is the subject of this submission. The Vascular Probe is a blood contacting device. The length of time the Probe is in contact with the body is typically less than 15 minutes (i.e. transient use). Testing conducted to assure the Probe Tips, manufactured with the new vinyl resin, remain safe for its intended Biocompatibility and Tensile strength testing.
Biocompatibility testing was performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1 (Biological Evoluation of medical devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process). The testing performed on the Vascular Probes demonstrated the devices continue to be biocompatible and safe for their intended use.
Tensile strength testing was conducted on the Vascular Probes manufactured with the new vinyl resin and concluded that the Probes continue to meet the current Vascular Probe finished device specifications.
Conclusion
The safety and performance of the Vascular Probes was evaluated through biocompatibility and bench testing. The bench testing results support the performance requirements for the Vascular Probes manufactured with the new vinyl resin. Biocompatibility testing was performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1 and demonstrated the Vascular Probes remain biocompatible.
