Intended Use
The transGlide Expandable Introducer is intended to be inserted into the femoral artery, over a guidewire, and once expanded, to provide a guide for catheters and/or devices introduced into the femoral iliac arteries.
Device Description
The transGlide Expandable Introducer consists of an expandable Mesh Assembly and a flexible Sheath Assembly. The Mesh Assembly, with an indwelling Dilator, is inserted into the femoral artery over a 0.035" (or smaller) guidewire. The Mesh Assembly is introduced at a small diameter of 13F inner diameter (ID) and is designed with a hydrophilic coating on the outer diameter (OD) of the usable length (effective length), thus facilitating passage through the femoral artery. The proximal 11cm of the Mesh is sealed to prevent blood loss at the access site. Once at the target location, the Mesh Dilator is removed and the Sheath Assembly is inserted, with an indwelling Dilator, through the Mesh Assembly over the guidewire. Prior to removal, the Sheath Assembly is withdrawn through the Mesh Assembly until the Sheath Removal Indicator is visible just proximal to the Docking Port, leaving 8cm of Sheath usable length in place to prevent blood loss while the entire assembly is withdrawn and removed from the patient. The Mesh consists of a polymer braid, which expands to accommodate the profile of the Sheath. The Mesh provides a bearing surface for the Sheath, which is designed to reduce the axial forces applied to the artery wall while the Sheath is being inserted. The Sheath Assembly Dilator is removed leaving a large (16F, 18F or 20F) central lumen extending from the proximal end to the distal end of the Sheath with a usable length of 30cm. The transGlide Expandable Introducer is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, single-use prescription device. The transGlide Expandable Introducer does not supply but recommends use with commercially available 0.035" (or smaller) Guidewires.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for image processing, data analysis, or decision support.

No.
Explanation: The device is described as an introducer, intended to provide a guide for catheters and/or devices. It does not directly treat a medical condition.

No

The device is an introducer intended to guide catheters and devices into arteries, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly details physical components like a Mesh Assembly, Sheath Assembly, and Dilator, and the performance studies include bench testing and animal studies related to these physical components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Function: The transGlide Expandable Introducer is a medical device used to facilitate the insertion of other catheters and devices into the femoral artery. It is a tool used during a medical procedure, not a device used to analyze samples outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for insertion into the femoral artery to provide a guide for other devices. This is a procedural function, not a diagnostic one based on analyzing bodily specimens.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical components and how it's used to create a pathway within the artery. There is no mention of collecting or analyzing bodily fluids or tissues.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the device's physical properties, biocompatibility, and performance during simulated and animal use. There are no studies related to the accuracy or reliability of diagnostic results from analyzing specimens.

In summary, the transGlide Expandable Introducer is an interventional medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Animal Studies

A GLP animal study was performed to evaluate the safety and performance of the transGlide Expandable Introducer as compared to a control device (Terumo SoloPath® Balloon Expandable TransFemoral Introducer (K100819)) in an ovine model. Based on pathology and histopathology results, the safety acceptance criteria for the study were met. Performance observations were made based on detailed characteristics of the device. No untoward observations were found by the clinician.

VIII. CONCLUSIONS

The transGlide Expandable Introducer has been carefully compared to the legally marketed predicate device with respect to intended use/indications for use, technological characteristics, anatomical sites, performance, safety characteristics, and labeling. In addition, non-clinical testing was conducted to verify and validate the performance of the device and ensure the transGlide Expandable Introducer functions as intended and meets design specifications. The comparison, non-clinical and clinical performance testing results demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device for its intended use.
