Device Description
The Well Lead PVC Hydrophilic Urethral Catheter is a flexible tubular single use urinary catheter that is inserted through the urethra to allow drainage of the bladder. The device consists of disposable polyvinyl chloride catheter (medical grade PVC) coated with hydrophilic polymer. When the catheter is immersed in water for 30 seconds it becomes slippery and ready to use. The catheters come in sizes from 12Fr-24Fr for Male, 12Fr-24Fr for Female and 6Fr-10Fr for Pediatric.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and function of a standard urinary catheter, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used for "clean intermittent catheterization-CIC treatment" for "patients with chronic urine retention" and is inserted to "emptying the bladder," indicating a therapeutic purpose to manage or treat a medical condition.

No

The device is a catheter used for draining the bladder (treatment), not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a flexible tubular single use urinary catheter made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coated with a hydrophilic polymer, indicating it is a physical hardware device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Well Lead PVC Hydrophilic Urethral Catheter is a device used to physically drain urine from the bladder. It is inserted into the body and performs a mechanical function.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Testing: The description does not mention any analysis of a sample for diagnostic purposes. It's a tool for managing a condition (chronic urine retention) by emptying the bladder, not for diagnosing or monitoring the condition through sample analysis.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Well Lead PVC Hydrophilic Urethral Catheter is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a therapeutic or procedural device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-Clinical Testing was performed on 3 different size catheters, 8Fr (pediatric size), 14Fr and 24Fr, based on the data generated from the testing on it can be concluded that the Well Lead PVC Hydrophilic Urethral Catheters are substantially equivalent to the Hi-Slip Single Use Hydrophilic Urinary Catheters. Tests performed include Analysis of Flow Rate, Analysis of Strength of the Catheter, Analysis of Connector Security, and Analysis of Coefficients of Friction. Biocompatibility testing was also performed, including In Vitro Cytotoxicity, Delayed Contact Sensitization Study, and Penile Irritation Test.
