Intended Use
The catheters are intended for use in the peripheral and coronary vascular system including the carotid arteries in angiographic procedures by physicians trained and experienced in angiographic techniques. Standard techniques for placement of vascular access sheaths, angiographic catheters and wire guides should be employed.
Device Description
The Beacon® Tip Torcon NB® Advantage Catheters are visually identified by a distal radiopaque tip bonded onto a nylon catheter shaft with braided stainless steel. Beacon® Tip Torcon NB® Advantage Catheters are available in 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, and 6.0 French with lengths measuring 40 to 170 centimeters. The catheter inner lumen is manufactured to accept a 0.035 or 0.038 inch diameter wire guide. These devices are manufactured without sideports and in a variety of distal tip configurations. The Torcon NB® Advantage Catheters are selective angiographic catheters manufactured with a thinwall radiopaque nylon material and constructed with stainless steel braiding. The Torcon NB® Advantage Catheters are available in 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0 French with lengths measuring 35 to 150 centimeters. The catheter inner lumen is manufactured to accept a 0.025, 0.035, or 0.038 inch diameter wire guide. These devices are manufactured with zero to twelve sideports, depending on the distal curve radius, and are available in a variety of distal tip configurations. These tips may be tapered at the distal endhole, depending upon device specifications. The catheters are also available in a variety of distal tip configurations. Beacon® Tip Torcon NB® Advantage Catheters and Torcon NB® Advantage Catheters are for use in angiographic procedures as a conduit for the delivery of contrast media and can help physicians diagnose occlusion or stenosis.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and mechanical performance of the catheters, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an angiographic catheter used for diagnostic purposes by delivering contrast media to help physicians diagnose occlusion or stenosis. It is not intended for treating a condition or disease.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the catheters are used in "angiographic procedures" and the "Device Description" section states they "can help physicians diagnose occlusion or stenosis," which are diagnostic purposes. Angiography itself is a diagnostic imaging technique.

No

The device description clearly details physical components such as a nylon catheter shaft, braided stainless steel, and a radiopaque tip, indicating it is a hardware device. The performance studies also focus on physical properties like burst pressure, tensile strength, and leakage.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the catheters are for use in the peripheral and coronary vascular system for angiographic procedures. This involves direct interaction with the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter designed for insertion into blood vessels.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body). IVDs are typically used for diagnostic testing on these types of samples.

The device described is a medical device used in vivo (within the body) for diagnostic imaging procedures (angiography) by delivering contrast media. This falls under the category of interventional or diagnostic medical devices, not in vitro diagnostics.
