Intended Use
The Silk Road® Access Catheter is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral vasculature.
Device Description
The Silk Road Access Catheter is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, single-use access catheter indicated for introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral vasculature. The Silk Road Access Catheter is a single-lumen, coil-reinforced shaft, variable stiffness catheter in a range of diameters and working lengths to accommodate target anatomy. All sizes contain a radiopaque marker on the distal end and a catheter hub on the proximal end. The catheter shaft has a hydrophilic coating on its distal portion to reduce friction during use. The catheter is offered with a dilator. The Silk Road Access Catheter is a limited duration (<24 hours), externalcommunicating device, contacting circulating blood.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and mechanical performance of a catheter, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is used to introduce other interventional devices, rather than directly treating a condition itself.

No

The device is an access catheter used to introduce interventional devices into the peripheral vasculature, not to diagnose a condition. Its function is to facilitate a medical procedure, not to identify a disease or medical state.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter with a shaft, radiopaque marker, hub, and hydrophilic coating, indicating it is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, the Silk Road® Access Catheter is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral vasculature." This describes a device used within the body for a procedural purpose, not for examining specimens outside the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed for insertion into blood vessels. It mentions contact with "circulating blood," which is part of its function within the body, not for analyzing blood samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any diagnostic purpose. The focus is entirely on facilitating access for other interventional devices.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Silk Road® Access Catheter does not fit this description.
