No.
This device is a guide wire, which facilitates the placement of therapeutic devices (like balloon dilatation catheters), but it is not a therapeutic device itself. Its purpose is to aid in access, not to directly treat a condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a guide wire intended to facilitate the placement of balloon dilatation catheters and other devices for treating narrowing and obstruction of blood vessels. It is used in interventional procedures rather than for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly details physical components like a taper core wire, coil, soldering, radiopaque sections, and coatings, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to facilitate the placement of balloon dilatation catheters during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a guide wire, a physical tool used to navigate within blood vessels.
- Lack of In Vitro Activity: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This guide wire does not perform any such analysis on specimens.
The device is a medical device used in vivo (within the living body) for a therapeutic purpose.

Device Description
The product, ASAHI PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI RG3 (hereinafter ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft), is intended to facilitate the insertion of an inflatable balloon catheter and other devices for treating narrowing and obstruction of the blood vessels.
The basic structure of the ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft consists of a taper core wire and a coil. The taper core wire and the coil are soldered. The coil is radiopaque in part length so its position can be easily confirmed under radioscopy. In addition to this, coatings are applied on the surface of the product. The distal end of ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft are coated with hydrophilic polymer. On the other hand, the proximal end of the taper core of ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft wire is coated with silicone oil.

Dear Candace Cederman:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of September 25, 2014.
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be

DESCRIPTION:
The product, ASAHI PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI RG3 (hereinafter ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft), is intended to facilitate the insertion of an inflatable balloon catheter and other devices for treating narrowing and obstruction of the blood vessels.
The basic structure of the ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft consists of a taper core wire and a coil. The taper core wire and the coil are soldered. The coil is radiopaque in part length so its position can be easily confirmed under radioscopy. In addition to this, coatings are applied on the surface of the product. The distal end of ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft are coated with hydrophilic polymer. On the other hand, the proximal end of the taper core of ASAHI RG3 and ASAHI RG3 Soft wire is coated with silicone oil.
COMPARISON TABLE WITH PREDICATE DEVICES:
Comparisons of the ASAHI PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI RG3 and predicate devices show that the technological characteristics of the ASAHI RG3 such as the intended use, components, design, materials, sterilization method, shelf life and operating principle are similar to the currently marketed predicate devices. The ASAHI PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI RG3 has an overall length of 330 cm and a nominal outer diameter of 0.26 mm.
NON CLINICAL TESTING / PERFORMANCE DATA:
Non clinical laboratory testing was performed on the ASAHI RG3 to determine substantial equivalence. The following testing/assessments were performed:
- Tensile Strength ●
- Torque Strength
- o Torqueablity
- Tip Flexibility ●
- Coating Adhesion/Integrity ●
- Catheter Compatibility ●
BIOCOMPATIBILITY:
The ASAHI RG3 Guidewire was compared to the predicate devices. Based on similariites of the materials used in the subject devcie to its predicates, the biocompatibiity of the ASAHI RG3 was verified to be the same as those of the predicates.
CONCLUSION:
The ASAHI RG3 GuideWire has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics such as components, design, materials, sterilization method, shelf life and operating principles as the predicate devices. Performance data demonstrates that the device functions as intended, and is as safe and effective as the predicate devices.
Therefore, the ASAHI PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI RG3 is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
