Intended Use
The ARROW Endurance catheter system permits access to the patient's peripheral vascular system for short-term use (less than 30 days) to sample blood, monitor blood pressure, or administer fluids. The catheter may be used for high pressure injection. The safety feature is intended to minimize the risk of sharps injuries.
Device Description
The Arrow® Endurance™ Extended Dwell Peripheral Catheter System is a sterile, single use peripheral intravascular device designed to permit access to the peripheral vascular system. The insertion device consists of an ergonomically designed handle with an integral echogenic needle with a passively-activated needle protection mechanism, guide wire with slider advancer, catheter release tab, and single-lumen catheter is advanced over the needle and threaded over a guide wire into a peripheral vessel. Throughout catheter insertion, blood is contained within the device to aid in prevention of blood exposure. The catheter system consists of a translucent radiopaque polyurethane catheter, a needle with openings to enhance flashback visibility, a seal in the catheter hub designed to reduce blood exposure, a stabilization platform with a strain relief nose designed to reduce kinking at the hub of the catheter, integrated extension tubing with Luer hub. vent plug to prevent blood from leaking out during insertion, and a clamp to eliminate blood exposure when the vent plug is removed and replaced with a mating Luer component such as an infusion set or Luer access device. The catheter is intended for short-term use (less than 30 days) to permit delivery of infusion therapies, infusion of blood products, pressure monitoring, high pressure injection at a maximum of 325 psi, and withdrawal of blood. The Arrow Endurance™ Extended Dwell Peripheral Catheter System is available in single lumen, 20 gauge configurations with usable lengths of 6 cm (2.36") and 8 cm (3.15").
More Information

No
The provided text describes a mechanical catheter system with a safety feature and does not mention any computational or data-driven components indicative of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is used to administer fluids and therapies, which are intended to treat or manage a patient's condition, making it a therapeutic device.

No

The device is a catheter system used to access the peripheral vascular system for administering fluids, monitoring blood pressure, sampling blood, and high-pressure injection, none of which primarily involve diagnosing a medical condition. While it allows for blood sampling and pressure monitoring, these are functions that support patient management rather than active diagnosis by the device itself.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical catheter system with various hardware components (needle, guide wire, catheter, tubing, etc.) and describes bench testing related to physical properties and performance. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a catheter system used for accessing the patient's peripheral vascular system for purposes like sampling blood, monitoring blood pressure, or administering fluids directly into the body.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze or test a specimen in vitro. The blood sampling mentioned is for collection, not for analysis by the device itself.

The device is an invasive medical device used for accessing the circulatory system.
