Intended Use
The Pre-Formed guidewires are intended to facilitate the introduction and placement of interventional devices within the chambers of the heart including those used within transcatheter aortic valve procedures.
Device Description
The 0.035" diameter, 260-300cm length guidewire is composed of two primary wire components: a core and a coil. Both components are manufactured from Stainless Steel per ASTM A313. The core wire is a stainless steel wire which forms the inner body of the guidewire. The coil component is the guidewire's outer layer and is a stainless steel wire coated in Green Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), The coil and the core components are welded together on the distal and proximal ends, forming the guidewire. The distal ends are shaped into a double-curve.

No
The description focuses on the physical composition and intended use of a guidewire, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
The device is a guidewire intended to facilitate the introduction and placement of interventional devices, not to provide a therapeutic effect itself.

No

The guidewires are intended to facilitate the introduction and placement of interventional devices, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly details a physical guidewire made of stainless steel, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the guidewires are used to "facilitate the introduction and placement of interventional devices within the chambers of the heart". This describes a device used in vivo (within the living body) for a procedural purpose.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical guidewire made of stainless steel and PTFE, designed to be inserted into the body.
  • 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, etc.) to provide information for diagnostic purposes. IVDs are typically used in a laboratory setting or at the point of care to analyze biological samples.

Therefore, this device is an interventional medical device used within the body, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
