The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.
No
The device is used to create, maintain, and monitor pressure in a balloon catheter during cardiovascular procedures, which is an ancillary function to the primary therapeutic action of the balloon catheter itself. It does not directly provide therapy.
No
The device is an inflation device for balloon catheters used in cardiovascular procedures, and its primary function is to create, maintain, and monitor pressure, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components such as a barrel, plunger, manometer, and tubing, indicating it is a hardware 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 is to "create, maintain and monitor pressure in the balloon catheter" during cardiovascular procedures. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body during a medical procedure, not an analysis of a sample taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device components (barrel, plunger, manometer, tubing, luer locks) are all consistent with a device used for mechanical manipulation and fluid delivery/pressure control within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

- Pressure
- Force
- Plunger Torque
- Tensile
- Fluid Capacity
- Luer Compatibility
The extension tubing design has been verified through the following tests:
- Luer Compatibility
- Pressure

Dear Beka Vite:
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. However, you are responsible to determine that the medical devices you use as components in the kit have either been determined as substantially equivalent under the premarket notification process (Section 510(k) of the act), or were legally on the market prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments. Please note: If you purchase your device components in bulk (i.e., unfinished) and further process (e.g., sterilize) you must submit a new 510(k) before including these components in your kit. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, and 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

Device Description
The Fluent inflation device consists of a barrel with a plunger, locking button, rotating handle, manometer, and high pressure tube with a rotating male luer lock. The manometer is graduated between vacuum and 30 atm. The extension tubing is a plastic tube with plastic luer lock connector hubs (one male and one female) at either end. It is available in 25 cm and 50 cm lengths.
Indications for Use
The Fluent inflation device is intended for use during cardiovascular procedures to create, maintain and monitor pressure in the balloon catheter. The sidearm extension tubing is intended to provide a sterile fluid pathway between two devices.
Technological Characteristics Comparison
The Fluent inflation device and the sidearm extension tubing are similar in design and intended use to their respective predicate devices. The Fluent and its predicate are both single-use, sterile inflation devices used to inflate, deflate, and measure the pressure in angioplasty balloon catheters. Both devices are manually operated by manipulation of a rotating handle, and both include a locking mechanism to maintain pressure or achieve rapid deflation. The extension tubing and its predicate are both plastic tubes with plastic luer lock connector hubs (one male and one female) at either end.
