No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a guide wire, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No.
The device is a guide wire, which is used to facilitate the placement of catheters for diagnostic and interventional procedures, not directly to treat a condition.
No
The device is a guide wire intended to facilitate the placement of catheters for diagnostic and interventional procedures, but it is not a diagnostic device itself. It aids in the placement of other devices which may then be used for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a stainless steel core wire, tungsten coil, polymer jacket, dispenser, insertion tool, tip straightener, and torque device. This indicates it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the Merit True Form Reshapable Guide Wire is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "facilitate the placement of catheters within the peripheral and coronary vasculature for various diagnostic and interventional procedures." This describes a device used within the body to aid in 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 with components like a core wire, coil, jacket, and coatings. It also mentions accessories for handling the wire. This aligns with a medical device used for navigation within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of:
- Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
- Detecting or measuring substances in biological specimens.
- Providing information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition based on the analysis of biological specimens.
In summary, the Merit True Form Reshapable Guide Wire is a medical device used for guiding other instruments within the body, which is the definition of an interventional or diagnostic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Merit True Form Reshapable Guide Wire consists of a stainless steel core wire, flattened at the distal end, with a 5cm Gold Plated Tungsten coil attached to the distal tip and is fully jacketed with a radiopaque filled polymer jacket. The True Form Reshapable Guide Wire is fully coated with a hydrophilic coating. The 5cm radiopaque coil is attached to the internal stainless steel core wire with a multitude of solder joints.
The wires are placed within a spiralled hoop dispenser with a flush luer attached and clips to secure the wire within the hoop. Included within the pouch, with the spiralled hooped guidewire, is another pouch containing an Insertion Tool, a Tip Straightener, and a Torque device.
The wire will be offered in straight and angled versions, in various lengths.

Dear Michael O'Sullivan:
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.
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 or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device
