The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and performance of a guide wire, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No.
The device is a guide wire designed to direct a catheter for diagnostic or interventional procedures, not to provide a therapeutic effect itself.
No
The device is a guide wire designed to direct a catheter, not to perform a diagnostic function itself. While it is used during diagnostic procedures, its role is to facilitate the procedure, not to diagnose.
No
The device description clearly states it is a guide wire made of physical materials (Nickel Titanium alloy, gold coil) and includes physical accessories (inserter, torque device, mandrel). It is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the Glidewire® GT is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the peripheral vasculature during diagnostic or interventional procedures." This describes a device used within the body to facilitate a medical procedure, not a device used to examine specimens outside the body to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description details a physical guide wire made of specific materials and designed for insertion into the peripheral vasculature. This aligns with an invasive medical device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other typical components or processes associated with in vitro diagnostics.
Therefore, the Glidewire® GT is a medical device used for interventional and diagnostic procedures in vivo, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Glidewire GT is designed to direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the peripheral vasculature during diagnostic or interventional procedures. This device is not intended for neurovascular or coronary interventions.

Device Description
The Glidewire GT is a guide wire which is designed to direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the peripheral vasculature during diagnostic or interventional procedures. It is provided sterile and is intended for single use only. The Glidewire GT consists of a core wire of a Nickel Titanium superelastic alloy and has a flexible radiopaque gold coil around the distal tip of the core wire. The Glidewire GT is offered with two distal tip types: Shapeable and Preshaped.
The wire distal segment comes in angled or straight configurations. Physicians choose the guide wire types depending upon their personal preference and the type of interventional procedure being performed. Other considerations may include: anatomy, difficulty of access, and the interventional device used for procedure. The device is packaged in a plastic holder that is contained within an individual package. A guide wire inserter, torque device and mandrel (Shapeable type only) are contained within the individual package to assist with the manipulation of the guide wire. Following the guide wire insertion, the guide wire inserter is removed from the proximal portion of guide wire.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance testing was conducted to evaluate the performance of the Glidewire GT throughout the labeled shelf life, verify conformity to applicable standards and demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. With the exception of the Radiodetectability1 test, the following performance tests were performed on nonaged and accelerated-aged Glidewire GT samples. All samples tested met the applicable acceptance criteria, and no new issues of safety and effectiveness were raised by the testing performed.

Dear Ms. McDole-Russell:
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.

Performance
Performance testing was conducted to evaluate the performance of the Glidewire® GT throughout the labeled shelf life, verify conformity to applicable standards and demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. With the exception of the Radiodetectability1 test, the following performance tests were performed on nonaged and accelerated-aged Glidewire® GT samples. All samples tested met the applicable acceptance criteria, and no new issues of safety and effectiveness were raised by the testing performed.
1 Only baseline testing was performed since no change in the radiopacity of the gold markers is anticipated with aging.
