The SonoFlow Device can instill salineonly or a mixture of saline and air for performance of saline infusion sonohysterography and sono-hysterosalpingography (Sono-HSG), respectively, for the evaluation of the fallopian tubes and/or the uterus. The following are generally recognized clinical indications for saline infusion sonohysterography and sonohysterosalpingography procedures: suspected polyps, fibroids, adhesions, endometrial thickening, and/or the selective evaluation of fallopian tube patency.
Device Description
The CrossBay Medical SonoFlow™ Device is a catheter that enables saline and air infusion of contrast media to perform sonohysterosalpingography and sonohysterography procedures. The catheter is comprised of standard polymer materials and contains a silicone acorn tip to enable a cervical seal. The distal end of the device contains an aeration component that provides an alternating pattern of saline and air as a stream of contrast media into the uterus and fallopian tubes. The proximal end of the device contains a handle with an air supply opening that allows the physician to reduce or eliminate the amount of air infusion selectively by occluding the opening of the air supply. The proximal end of the device contains an empty PVC bag that can be filled with saline. The device is provided sterile and is intended for single use only.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and material properties of a catheter for fluid and air delivery, with no mention of AI/ML or image processing.

No
The device is used for diagnostic purposes (sonohysterography and sonohysterosalpingography procedures to evaluate the uterus and fallopian tubes) by instilling saline and air, not for treating any condition.

Yes

Explanation: The device is indicated for use in sonohysterography and sonohysterosalpingography procedures for the evaluation of fallopian tubes and/or the uterus, specifically for generally recognized clinical indications such as suspected polyps, fibroids, adhesions, endometrial thickening, and/or the selective evaluation of fallopian tube patency. These are all diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description clearly states it is a catheter made of polymer materials with a silicone tip, handle, and PVC bag, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software only.

Based on the provided information, the CrossBay SonoFlow Sonohysterography and Sonohysterosalpingography Device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The SonoFlow device is used within the human body (uterine cavity, fallopian tubes, uterus) to facilitate imaging procedures.
  • The device's function is to instill contrast media (saline and air) for imaging. It doesn't analyze biological samples or provide diagnostic information based on the analysis of those samples. The diagnosis is made by the physician interpreting the images obtained using the device.
  • The description focuses on the device's mechanical function and biocompatibility. There is no mention of analyzing biological fluids or tissues.

Therefore, the SonoFlow device is a medical device used in conjunction with imaging equipment, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

V. INDICATIONS FOR USE

The CrossBay SonoFlow Sonohysterography and Sonohysterosalpingography Device is indicated for use to access the uterine cavity for sonohysterography and sonohysterosalpingography procedures. The SonoFlow Device can instill saline-only or a mixture of saline and air for performance of saline infusion sonohysterography and sono-hysterosalpingography (Sono-HSG), respectively, for the evaluation of the fallopian tubes and/or the uterus. The following are generally recognized clinical indications for saline infusion sonohysterography and sonohysterosalpingography procedures: suspected polyps, fibroids, adhesions, endometrial thickening, and/or the selective evaluation of fallopian tube patency.

The Indications for Use Statement is not identical to each predicate device; however, the differences do not alter the intended use of the device nor do they affect the safety and effectiveness of the device relative to the predicates. Both the subject and predicate devices have the same intended use – for use during sonohysterography and sonohysterosalpingography procedures.

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICES

The subject and predicate devices are catheter based technologies that employ the use of similar materials of construction and share similar principles of operation. The devices are used during hysterosalpingography and hysterosonography procedures. At a high level, the subject and predicate devices share the following technological characteristics:

  • Devices are all catheter based or require use of a catheter based device.
  • Devices have similar dimensions and are comprised of standard medical grade materials.

The following technological differences exist between the subject and primary predicate device (FemVue Saline-Air):

  • . The primary predicate device requires the use of a separate uterine catheter and saline / air infusion device; the subject device combines these functions.
  • . The primary predicate device requires simultaneous air and saline infusion; the subject device contains a device feature that enables selective infusion of air within the saline media.

The different technological characteristics of the subject device do not raise different types of safety and effectiveness questions as they are routinely encountered during premarket review of saline infusion sonohysterography and Sono-HSG devices.

Accepted scientific methods exist to assess the effects of the different technological characteristics, including mechanical, animal, and/or clinical performance testing. The submission included sufficient
