Intended Use
The ZigiWire Guidewire Systems facilitate placement and exchange of catheters and other instruments in the peripheral vasculature. The ZigiWire Guidewire Systems are not intended for use in the coronary arteries or neurovasculature.
Device Description
The Vadiswire ZigiWire Mode2 and ZigiWire Mode3 Guidewire Systems are sterile guidewire systems designed to facilitate the placement of diagnostic catheters and sheaths in the peripheral vasculature. The individual guidewires used in the ZigiWire Systems consist of exchange length peripheral guidewires cleared under AdvanceCath (TechDevice) Corporation's 510(k) K053251. TechDevice Corporation manufactures the guidewires used in the ZigiWire Systems for Vadiswire, which are individually the same as several of the guidewires previously cleared under K053251. The ZigiWire Systems consist of two models: one (ZigiWire Mode3) incorporates three individual exchange length peripheral guidewires, and the second (ZigiWire Mode2) incorporating two individual exchange length peripheral guidewires. The individual guidewires used in the system range from 0.014 - 0.022 inches in diameter and are standard Teflon-coated, stainless steel guidewires with flexible radiopaque tips. Each ZigiWire System is provided with the individual guidewires in an all straight tip shape, or with all guidewires in the J-tip shape. The ZigiWire Systems are also provided with accessories which are intended to assist in inserting the guidewires into diagnostic catheters. These accessories consist of a wire introducer, which loosely holds the individual guidewires and helps to guide them into the hub of a catheter, a handle to separate the wires prior to use, and wire torquers for each wire. The handle incorporates a side port to enable flushing the introducer with the guidewires in place.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and physical properties of the guidewires and accessories, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device facilitates the placement and exchange of other instruments, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition itself.

No

Explanation: The device is a guidewire system, which facilitates the placement of diagnostic catheters, but it is not itself a diagnostic device. It is a tool used in a diagnostic procedure.

No

The device description explicitly details physical components such as guidewires, a wire introducer, a handle, and wire torquers. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics and functionality of these hardware components. There is no mention of software as a component of this device.

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 "facilitate placement and exchange of catheters and other instruments in the peripheral vasculature." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a procedural purpose.
  • Device Description: The description details a guidewire system used to guide catheters and sheaths within blood vessels. This is consistent with an in vivo medical device.
  • 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.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. IVDs are used in vitro (outside the body) on these types of samples.

Therefore, the ZigiWire Guidewire Systems are medical devices used in vivo for interventional procedures, not IVDs.

Summary of Performance Studies

To demonstrate substantial equivalence of the subject ZigiWire Guidewire Systems to the predicate devices, the technological and performance characteristics were evaluated by completion of the following testing:

  • Bond Testing
  • Aseptic Removal from Pouch
  • Wire Removal from Handle
  • Wire Handle Hold and Release of Guidewire
  • Introducer Flushing
  • Manual Tip Forming
  • Wire Placement in Simulated Use
  • Catheter Compatibility
  • Steerability
  • Deliverability of Guiding Catheter or Sheath
  • Guidewire Removal
  • Tip Flexibility

The results from these tests:

  • demonstrate that the technological and performance characteristics of the subject ZigiWire Guidewire Systems are comparable to the predicate devices,
  • support the safety and effectiveness of the devices that are the subject of this 510(k), and
  • ensure the subject devices can perform in a manner equivalent to the predicate devices with the identical intended use.

Performance Standards: Performance Standards do not currently exist for these devices. None are established under Section 514.

Device Description: The Vadiswire ZigiWire Mode2 and ZigiWire Mode3 Guidewire Systems are sterile guidewire systems designed to facilitate the placement of diagnostic catheters and sheaths in the peripheral vasculature. The individual guidewires used in the ZigiWire Systems consist of exchange length peripheral guidewires cleared under AdvanceCath (TechDevice) Corporation's 510(k) K053251. TechDevice Corporation manufactures the guidewires used in the ZigiWire Systems for Vadiswire, which are individually the same as several of the guidewires previously cleared under K053251.

The ZigiWire Systems consist of two models: one (ZigiWire Mode3) incorporates three individual exchange length peripheral guidewires, and the second (ZigiWire Mode2) incorporating two individual exchange length peripheral guidewires. The individual guidewires used in the system range from 0.014 - 0.022 inches in diameter and are standard Teflon-coated, stainless steel guidewires with flexible radiopaque tips. Each ZigiWire System is provided with the individual guidewires in an all straight tip shape, or with all guidewires in the J-tip shape. The ZigiWire Systems are also provided with accessories which are intended to assist in inserting the guidewires into diagnostic catheters. These accessories consist of a wire introducer, which loosely holds the individual guidewires and helps to guide them into the hub of a catheter, a handle to separate the wires prior to use, and wire torquers for each wire. The handle incorporates a side port to enable flushing the introducer with the guidewires in place.

Indications for Use: The ZigiWire Guidewire Systems facilitate placement and exchange of catheters and other instruments in the peripheral vasculature. The ZigiWire Guidewire Systems are not intended for use in the coronary arteries or neurovasculature.

Predicate Devices: Vadiswire Corporation cites the following devices as the predicate devices for the substantial equivalence basis.
