The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and functionality of a medical sheath, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No.
The device is an introducer sheath intended to provide a conduit for other devices, not to provide therapeutic treatment itself.
No
The Confida™ Adaptive Sheath is designed to facilitate the insertion of diagnostic or interventional devices, not to perform diagnosis itself.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components (dilator, introducer sheath, sideport extension, valve assembly) and mentions non-clinical testing related to material properties, mechanical performance, and biocompatibility, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the Confida™ Adaptive Sheath is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide a conduit for inserting diagnostic or interventional devices into the iliofemoral vessels during cardiovascular procedures. This involves direct interaction with the patient's circulatory system.
- Device Description: The description details a physical sheath and dilator designed for insertion into the body. It focuses on features like flexibility, hemostasis, and facilitating the passage of other devices.
- Mechanism of Action: The device's function is mechanical – creating a pathway within the body. It does not involve analyzing samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide diagnostic information.
- Classification: The device is classified as a surgically invasive device for short-term use contacting circulatory blood, which aligns with a medical device used within the body, not an IVD.
In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Confida™ Adaptive Sheath does not perform this function.

Device Description
The Confida™ Adaptive Sheath is a single-use, disposable, hydrophilically coated sheath designed to provide a flexible and hemostatic conduit for the insertion of diagnostic and interventional devices, including devices used in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The Confida™ Adaptive Sheath is a prescription use device, intended to be used by professionals in healthcare/hospital facilities. There is only one model of the Confida™ Adaptive Sheath, corresponding to model number CAS131830.
The Confida™ Adaptive Sheath is comprised of two components:
- Dilator component: The Dilator component includes a flexible, tapered distal tip that facilitates atraumatic tracking through the vasculature. The Dilator component contains an internal lumen able to accommodate up to a 0.035in (0.89mm) guidewire.
- Introducer Sheath component: A hydrophilic coating is applied to the sheath body to reduce the forces required for insertion into and withdrawal from the vasculature. The seal housing contains a hemostatic valve assembly designed to minimize blood loss during device use. The Introducer Sheath component contains a sideport extension with a three-way valve, providing a means for fluid to be flushed through the Introducer Sheath component during clinical use. The sheath body temporarily expands in diameter to allow the introduction and removal of devices up to 18 Fr in outer diameter, including devices used in TAVR procedures. There are no specific accessories required for use with the Confida™ Adaptive Sheath. The Confida™ Adaptive Sheath is designed for use with guidewires up to 0.035in (.89mm) in diameter, and has been developed for use with various devices used in diagnostic and interventional procedures, including TAVR procedures. The Confida™ Adaptive Sheath is classified as a surgically invasive device for short-term use (

Dear Mark Job:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21
