Yes.
The device is used to achieve hemostasis (the stopping of blood flow) at a biopsy site, which is a therapeutic action.
No
The device is indicated for applying temporary focal mechanical compression to a stereotactic breast biopsy site to achieve hemostasis, which is a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function. It is an accessory used with biopsy devices, but it itself does not diagnose.
No
The device description clearly states the device is comprised of physical materials (Delrin® DuPont) and has different physical configurations. It also mentions a physical cover made of polyethylene blend material. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the Xpress BCD is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use of the Xpress BCD is to apply temporary focal mechanical compression to a stereotactic breast biopsy site to achieve hemostasis. This is a physical action performed on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is described as a reusable accessory made of a specific material, used in conjunction with stereotactic breast biopsy devices and a sterile cover. This description aligns with a mechanical or physical device.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, tissue, urine) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Xpress BCD does not interact with or analyze any biological samples.
- Mechanism of Action: The device works by applying mechanical compression, not by analyzing biological markers or performing chemical reactions on a sample.
The information provided clearly indicates that the Xpress BCD is a medical device used during or after a biopsy procedure to manage bleeding, which is a physical intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic test.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
A prospective historical control single arm clinical study (NCT02327598) was conducted at one investigational site to evaluate the performance of the XPress BCD breast compression device to obtain hemostasis after stereotactic-guided breast biopsy following 120 biopsies in 118 female subjects with mammographic findings that warranted stereotactic biopsy.
Key results:
Immediate post-compression hematoma was detected by primary investigators in 9/120 biopsies (7.5%). Additional delayed hematomas detected out to one week after biopsy were found following 4/120 (3.2%) of the biopsies. No mammographic evidence of fat necrosis was noted at one-year post-biopsy in a subgroup of 65 subjects who had not been subject to open biopsy or lumpectomy and were evaluated with mammography at one year post-biopsy. All biopsy sites meeting the criteria for evaluation were assessed for mammographic for evidence of fat necrosis by both the primary study and independent mammographers.
Table 9-2 provides the results from two independent mammographers' examinations; one found hematomas on immediate post-biopsy imaging following 7/120 (5.8%) of biopsy procedures and the other in 9/120 (7.5%). Neither noted any mammographic evidence of fat necrosis in the 65 subjects who did not proceed to open biopsy or lumpectomy and for whom mammography at one year post-biopsy was available for review.

9.0 CLINICAL TESTING
A prospective historical control single arm clinical study (NCT02327598) was conducted at one investigational site to evaluate the performance of the XPress BCD breast compression device to obtain hemostasis after stereotactic-guided breast biopsy following 120 biopsies in 118 female subjects with mammographic findings that warranted stereotactic biopsy. Five investigators and six assistants participated in this study; the 118 enrolled and treated subjects met the following inclusion criteria:
- Adult women: eighteen years of age and older. ●
- . Sites of calcification (size not restricted) and/or breast lesions (masses) ≤ 1.5 cm in diameter deemed suspicious by radiologist/ breast surgeon.
- Provided written informed consent.
None of the 118 enrolled and treated subjects met the study's criteria for exclusion:
- Pregnancy.
- Lactation.
- Cognitive impairment.
- . On active blood thinners including, but not limited to, warfarin, clopidogrel and heparin. Low dose aspirin or non-steroidal medication are not subject to this requirement.
- A known bleeding disorder or uncorrected coagulopathy with a platelet count of ≤ . 80,000 and/or an international normalized ratio of ≥ 1.5.
5
- Note : Coagulation parameters were not routinely performed unless suspicion of . coagulopathy including known deficiencies such as Factor VIII and XI, Diffuse Intravascular Coagulation, Uremia, Liver Failure, Myeloproliferative Disorder, Alpha 2 Antiplasmin deficiency, Monoclonal Gammopathy, and Lupus Anticoagulant).
Follow-up after discharge included phone contact after 24 hours and 7 days. Patients were asked to return if they developed significant bruising greater than 3 cm in diameter, a new lump at the biopsy site, increasing pain, or signs of infection including redness, increased warmth, or increased temperature. Returning patients out to one week were evaluated clinically as well as with ultrasound of the biopsy site.
Additionally, all 65 of the 120 original biopsy sites deemed evaluable for evidence of fat necrosis were reviewed at one year. Evaluable sites required the absence of interval surgical biopsy/lumpectomy and mammograms available for review at one year following biopsy and mechanical compression.
The primary clinical performance measure / adverse effect were hematoma formation. Hematoma was defined as a new three dimensional mass (> 0.52 cm') detected on standard post-biopsy full- field mammography. Incidence and size of delayed hematomas were also noted. Unanticipated adverse events were defined as any serious adverse effect on health, safety, or any life-threatening problem or death caused by or associated with the device. No unanticipated adverse events were noted during the course of the study and follow-up evaluation.
Table 9-1 summarizes demographics and performance measures for 120 biopsy procedures performed on 118 enrolled and treated clinical study patients. Immediate post-compression hematoma was detected by primary investigators in 9/120 biopsies (7.5%). Additional delayed hematomas detected out to one week after biopsy were found following 4/120 (3.2%) of the biopsies. No mammographic evidence of fat necrosis was noted at one-year post-biopsy in a subgroup of 65 subjects who had not been subject to open biopsy or lumpectomy and were evaluated with mammography at one year post-biopsy. All biopsy sites meeting the criteria for evaluation were assessed for mammographic for evidence of fat necrosis by both the primary study and independent mammographers.

Note: Staff evaluation compared their impressions on the use of mechanical compression on workflow relative to the use of standard manual compression using a 10 point scale (-5 extreme degradation to +5 extreme enhancement of workflow). The effect on workflow closely mirrored staff estimates of net time saved or lost (in minutes) relative to standard manual compression (assuming that they would have been responsible for performing manual breast compression).
SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE FEATURES 10.0
During breast biopsy procedures, the XPress BCD is used to apply direct mechanical compression to the biopsy site, as a replacement for standard manual compression. The XPress BCD is inserted into the stereo guide compression paddle, and pressure is applied mechanically by the paddle and attached XPress BCD device. Before insertion into the compression paddle, the XPress BCD is placed inside, and enclosed by, a sterile XPress BCD Cover, so that the device does not come in direct contact with the patient. Further, sterile 4 X 4 gauze pads are placed between the covered XPress BCD device and the patient, which is an additional barrier to direct contact with the patient.
The XPress BCD Breast Compression Device, is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed, commercially available Biopsy Digit S and Biopsy Digit SL (K113607). manufactured by Giotto USA, LLC, Wichita, KS 67226. The XPress device does not introduce any technological characteristic differences that raise questions of safety or effectiveness; to establish this, a list of comparative features and their similarities and differences is provided in the table below:

11.0 SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
The XPress BCD, and the claimed predicate device, the Biopsy Digit S and Biopsy Digit SL device, are accessories used during stereotactic-guided breast biopsy procedures including breast biopsies. The XPress BCD device and the predicate device have the same general intended use – they are accessories for mammographic procedures requiring stereotactic guidance including breast biopsies. The XPress device does not introduce any technological characteristic differences that raise questions of safety or effectiveness. The XPress BCD device has been demonstrated to be as safe and effective as the predicate device for intended use in a prospective, single site single arm historical control clinical study (NCT02327598). There are no additional significant questions of safety or effectiveness.
