More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a standard medical catheter and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
The device is described as a catheter for accessing the vascular system to sample blood or administer fluids, which are diagnostic or supportive functions, not directly therapeutic.

No

This device is a catheter intended for administering fluids or sampling blood, not for diagnosing conditions. Its function is to provide access to the vascular system, which is a therapeutic or procedural function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical catheter with an introducer needle and guidewire, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The PowerGlide® Midline Catheter is a device that is inserted into the patient's vascular system to directly administer fluids or sample blood from within the body. It is a tool for accessing the vascular system, not for analyzing samples outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "sampling blood or administer fluids intravenously," which are procedures performed on the patient, not on a sample in a lab.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the PowerGlide® Midline Catheter is a medical device used for direct patient care, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
