Intended Use
The Stingray LP Catheter is indicated for directing, steering, controlling, and supporting a guidewire in order to access discrete regions of the coronary and peripheral vasculature. When used as part of the system consisting of the CrossBoss™ Catheter, Stingray LP Catheter, and Stingray Guidewire, the Stingray LP Catheter is indicated for use to facilitate the intraluminal placement of conventional guidewires beyond stenotic coronary lesions (including chronic total occlusions [CTOs]) prior to PTCA or stent intervention.
Device Description
The Stingray LP Catheter facilitates the placement, support and steering of a guidewire into discrete regions of the coronary and peripheral vasculature through the central guidewire lumen or through one of two side-ports. These side-ports are on opposite sides of the balloon and are identified by radiopaque markers. The side-ports communicate with the central guidewire lumen and facilitate guidewire steering (at an angle to the central lumen) by allowing the guidewire to exit the Stingray LP Catheter. The Stingray LP Catheter contains a small balloon used for fluoroscopic orientation on the distal tip of a flexible shaft. The distal end of the catheter is hydrophilic coated. The Stingray LP Catheter is compatible with 6F guide catheters with minimum inner diameter of 0.070 in (1.7 mm), and may be used with guidewires ≤0.014 in (0.36 mm).

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and physical properties of a catheter and its interaction with guidewires and other devices. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational analysis of data for decision-making or guidance.

No.
The device facilitates guidewire placement and steering within the vasculature but itself does not provide a therapeutic effect. It is a tool for accessing and supporting other interventions (PTCA or stent intervention).

No

The device is indicated for directing, steering, controlling, and supporting a guidewire to access regions of the coronary and peripheral vasculature, and to facilitate guidewire placement for PTCA or stent intervention. It is an interventional device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter with a balloon, guidewire lumen, side-ports, and a flexible shaft, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The description of the Stingray LP Catheter clearly indicates it is a medical device used within the body (in vivo) to facilitate the placement and steering of guidewires in the coronary and peripheral vasculature. It is a tool for interventional procedures, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to access and navigate within blood vessels, not to analyze biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components and function of the catheter for guiding and supporting guidewires.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies mentioned are bench testing and biocompatibility testing, which are typical for in vivo medical devices, not IVDs.

Therefore, the Stingray LP Catheter is an interventional medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
