Intended Use
The TrueTM Dilatation Balloon Valvuloplasty Catheter is indicated for balloon aortic valvuloplasty.
Device Description
The True™ Dilatation Balloon Valvuloplasty Catheter is an over-the-wire co-axial catheter with a balloon fixed at the tip. The catheter is 110 cm long and has two lumens: one lumen is used to inflate and deflate the balloon and the other permits the use of a guidewire to position the catheter. The balloon inflation luer-lock hub (angled) connects to a syringe inflation device to deliver radiopaque contrast media for inflation. The guidewire luer-lock hub (straight) connects to the guidewire lumen. The balloon is noncompliant and is designed to reach a known diameter and length when inflated within the specified pressure range. Two radiopaque marker bands are provided for fluoroscopic positioning of the device across the aortic valve. These bands are positioned at the proximal and distal balloon shoulders. Balloon catheter dimensions, balloon nominal pressure, maximum inflation pressure, recommended introducer size, and recommended guidewire size are indicated on the package label.

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

Yes
The device is used for "balloon aortic valvuloplasty," which is a medical procedure to treat a condition and improve patient health, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device description clearly states its purpose is for "balloon aortic valvuloplasty," which is a therapeutic procedure involving the use of a balloon to dilate a narrowed aortic valve. This is an interventional treatment, not a device used to identify or determine the nature of a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical catheter with a balloon, lumens, and marker bands, indicating it is a hardware device. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics and in vitro testing of the hardware.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "balloon aortic valvuloplasty." This is a procedure performed on a patient to treat a condition, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter with a balloon designed to be inserted into the body and inflated at the aortic valve. This is a therapeutic device used for intervention, not a diagnostic device used for testing.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. The device's function is mechanical (dilating the valve).

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies

To demonstrate substantial equivalence of the subject device to the predicate device, its technological characteristics and performance criteria were evaluated. Using FDA Guidance Documents on non-clinical testing of medical devices and internal Risk Assessment procedures, the following in vitro tests were performed on the subject device:

  • Dimensional Testing (catheter shaft length, balloon OD, balloon length)
  • Marker Band Alignment .
  • Visual Inspection of Product •
  • Visual Inspection of Sterile Barrier Packaging Heat Seals •
  • . Trackability
  • Sheath Compatibility •
  • Inflation/Deflation .
  • Fatigue
  • Tip to Balloon Tensile .
  • Balloon Burst
  • Catheter Leak •
  • Failure Mode •
  • Shaft Burst
  • Radiopacity (inflated) •
  • Balloon Distensibility •
  • Reinsertion .

The following in vitro tests were leveraged from the predicate True™ Dilatation device:

  • . Dimensional testing (shaft ID, shaft OD)
  • . Dye Penetration
  • Pouch Tensile •
  • . Tip Morphology
  • Media Interaction .
  • Catheter Elongation •
  • Balloon to Shaft Tensile •
  • . Radiopacity (prior to inflation)

The results from these tests demonstrate that the technological characteristics and performance criteria of the True™ Dilatation Balloon Valvuloplasty Catheter are substantially equivalent to the predicate device, and that it can perform in a manner equivalent to devices currently on the market for the same intended use.
