Intended Use
The ENVOY® Guiding Catheter is intended for use in the peripheral, coronary, and neurovasculature for the intravascular introduction of interventional/diagnostic devices.
Device Description
The ENVOY® Guiding Catheter is a single lumen, braided catheter with a large non-tapered lumen that facilitates the intravascular passage of interventional/diagnostic devices. The guiding catheter is pre-shaped to facilitate positioning.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical guiding catheter and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

No.
The device (ENVOY® Guiding Catheter) is intended for the introduction of interventional/diagnostic devices, not for direct therapeutic action or treatment itself.

No
The device is a guiding catheter intended to facilitate the introduction of other "interventional/diagnostic devices", but it is not itself a diagnostic device. Its purpose is to guide, not to diagnose.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical catheter, which is a hardware component, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for the "intravascular introduction of interventional/diagnostic devices" within the peripheral, coronary, and neurovasculature. This describes a device used within the body to facilitate other procedures, not a device used to test samples outside the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed for guiding other devices, consistent with its intended use. There is no mention of reagents, sample analysis, or any components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting specific analytes (proteins, genes, metabolites, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information based on sample analysis

Therefore, the ENVOY® Guiding Catheter is a medical device used for interventional and diagnostic procedures in vivo, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

The following Verification and Validation tests were conducted to verify the modified design ENVOY® Guiding Catheter:

  • Visual Inspection
  • Catheter Shape
  • Catheter Dimensional Verification
  • Tensile Strength Testing
  • System Liquid Leakage Testing
  • Lateral Stiffness Testing
  • Linear Stiffness Testing

The following Biocompatibility Testing was conducted with the proposed ENVOY® Guiding Catheter:

  • Cytotoxicity: MEM Elution
  • Hemocompatibility - In vitro Hemolysis (Direct & Extract)
  • USP Physicochemical Aqueous Extraction Test

Animal Testing:
No animal studies were required as appropriate verification and validation of the ENVOY® Guiding Catheter line extension was achieved based on the similarities of the proposed device to the predicate device, and from results of bench testing.

Clinical testing:
No clinical studies were required as appropriate verification and validation of the ENVOY® Guiding Catheter line extension was achieved based on the similarities of the proposed device to the predicate device, and from results of bench testing.

Conclusion:
Based upon the design, materials, function, intended use, and the non-clinical testing performed by Codman it is concluded that the proposed ENVOY® 7Fr Guiding Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate ENVOY® 6Fr Guiding Catheter (K093184), and therefore, does not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.
