Intended Use
The ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter is intended to provide support to facilitate the placement of Guide wires in the coronary and peripheral vasculatures and can be used to exchange one guide wire for another. The Corsair Microcatheter is also intended to assist in the delivery of contrast media into the coronary, peripheral, and abdominal vasculatures.
Device Description
The ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter consists of a distal tip and a shaft tube that are inserted into a vascular connector for catheter control and infusion of contrast media. No accessories are part of this device. The Corsair has a radiopaque marker coil that is imbedded into the inner layer of resin to facilitate the tip location during angiographic procedures. In addition, the device has a hydrophilic coating on the outer surface of the shaft tube to provide a smooth transition in blood vessels. The distal tip of the Corsair has a tapered shape and is designed to have increased flexibility towards the distal end. PTFE is applied to the inner lumen of the catheter for the purposes of a smooth transition and exchange of guidewires. The microcatheter also contains wires to reinforce the distal tip and shaft tube to allow the physician greater control of the device during interventional procedures.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the physical construction and materials of a microcatheter, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No.
The device facilitates placement of guide wires and delivery of contrast media, but does not directly treat a disease or condition.

No

The ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter is explicitly stated to "provide support to facilitate the placement of Guide wires" and "assist in the delivery of contrast media." These are interventional and delivery functions, not diagnostic; it does not analyze or interpret biological data to determine a medical condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly details physical components such as a distal tip, shaft tube, radiopaque marker coil, hydrophilic coating, and reinforcing wires, indicating it is a hardware device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter Function: The description clearly states the device's purpose is to facilitate the placement of guide wires, exchange guide wires, and assist in the delivery of contrast media within the body (coronary, peripheral, and abdominal vasculatures). It is an interventional device used directly on the patient.
  • No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze any specimens taken from the body.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter is a medical device used for interventional procedures within the body, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non clinical laboratory testing was performed on the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter to determine substantial equivalence. Torque durability testing was conducted to ensure that the shorter length of the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter maintained the torque durability within the acceptance criteria. Coating integrity/peel testing confirmed equivalent performance of the Subject device as compared to its predicate. Confirmatory biocompatibility testing was done to ensure that the minor modifications to the coating materials had no negative impact upon biocompatibility of the device.

The in vitro bench test demonstrated that the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter met all acceptance criteria and performed similarly to the predicate devices. Performance data demonstrate that the Subject device functions as intended and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

INTENDED USE/INDICATIONS FOR USE

The ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter is intended to provide support to facilitate the placement of Guide wires in the coronary and peripheral vasculatures and can be used to exchange one guide

wire for another. The Corsair Microcatheter is also intended to assist in the delivery of contrast media into the coronary, peripheral, and abdominal vasculatures.

DESCRIPTION:

The ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter consists of a distal tip and a shaft tube that are inserted into a vascular connector for catheter control and infusion of contrast media. No accessories are part of this device. The Corsair has a radiopaque marker coil that is imbedded into the inner layer of resin to facilitate the tip location during angiographic procedures. In addition, the device has a hydrophilic coating on the outer surface of the shaft tube to provide a smooth transition in blood vessels. The distal tip of the Corsair has a tapered shape and is designed to have increased flexibility towards the distal end. PTFE is applied to the inner lumen of the catheter for the purposes of a smooth transition and exchange of guidewires.

The microcatheter also contains wires to reinforce the distal tip and shaft tube to allow the physician greater control of the device during interventional procedures.

COMPARISON WITH PREDICATE DEVICES:

Comparisons of the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter and predicate device show that the technological characteristics of the Subject device such as the components, design, materials, sterilization method, shelf life and operating principle are identical or similar to currently marketed predicate devices. The addition of a shorter length catheter does not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.

NON CLINICAL TESTING / PERFORMANCE DATA:

Non clinical laboratory testing was performed on the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter to determine substantial equivalence. Torque durability testing was conducted to ensure that the shorter length of the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter maintained the torque durability within the acceptance criteria. Coating integrity/peel testing confirmed equivalent performance of the Subject device as compared to its predicate. Confirmatory biocompatibility testing was done to ensure that the minor modifications to the coating materials had no negative impact upon biocompatibility of the device.

The in vitro bench test demonstrated that the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter met all acceptance criteria and performed similarly to the predicate devices. Performance data demonstrate that the Subject device functions as intended and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

BIOCOMPATIBILITY:

The ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter was compared to the predicate and reference devices. The ratios of the coating material were modified slightly from the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter predicate but are the same as used on the reference ASAHI Fubuki (K141981). Confirmatory testing (cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, systemic toxicity (acute), and hemocompatibility) supports that the modifications to the coating material continue to render the device biocompatible.

CONCLUSION:

The ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter has identical intended use and the same or 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.

Therefore, the ASAHI Corsair Microcatheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
