Intended Use
The TightRail and TightRail Mini Rotating Dilator Sheaths are intended for use in patients requiring the percutaneous dilation of tissue to facilitate removal of cardiac leads, indwelling catheters, and foreign objects
Device Description
The TightRail and TightRail Mini Rotating Dilator Sheaths are intra-operative devices. The devices consist of a proximal handle drive mechanism with a distal dilation sheath. Each rotating dilator sheath is packaged with an optional outer support sheath. The dilator sheath is advanced, withdrawn, and rotated about the lead, catheter, or foreign object to be removed. Actuating the trigger on the proximal handle activates a rotary dilation mechanism sheathed at the distal terminus of the dilation sheath. Rotation of the inner shaft is translated to axial actuation of the dilation mechanism via a cam path contained within the distal components. Actuation of the distal dilation mechanism causes dilation of tissue and fibrous attachments surrounding the object targeted for removal thereby facilitating removal of said object. For the TightRail the diameter sizes range from 9 French (F) to 13 F with a nominal effective length of 47.5cm. For the TightRail Mini, the diameter sizes range from 9 French (F) to 11 F with a nominal effective length of 15.5 cm.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on mechanical components and actions (rotation, dilation) and the performance studies are standard mechanical, material, and biological tests. There is no mention of data processing, algorithms, or learning.

No.
The device facilitates the removal of cardiac leads, indwelling catheters, and foreign objects by dilating tissue, which is a preparatory step for removal, not a therapeutic action itself.

No

This device is described as an "intra-operative device" intended for the "percutaneous dilation of tissue to facilitate removal of cardiac leads, indwelling catheters, and foreign objects." This function is interventional/therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (proximal handle drive mechanism, distal dilation sheath, outer support sheath) and mechanical actions (advanced, withdrawn, rotated, actuating trigger, rotary dilation mechanism, axial actuation, cam path). There is no mention of software as a component or function of the 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 the device is for "percutaneous dilation of tissue to facilitate removal of cardiac leads, indwelling catheters, and foreign objects." This is a surgical/interventional procedure performed directly on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical device with a handle, sheath, and rotating dilation mechanism used to physically manipulate tissue. This is consistent with a surgical tool.
  • 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 samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) for a procedural purpose.
