More Information

The input "Not Found" does not contain any K/DEN numbers or information about predicate devices. Therefore, I cannot identify or list them.

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on physical components (catheters, wire guides) and their materials and dimensions. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML. The performance studies are related to physical properties and sterilization, not algorithmic performance.

No.
The device is used for diagnostic purposes (evaluation of tubal patency) rather than for treating a condition.

Yes

The device's intended use is for "evaluation of tubal patency," and it facilitates the injection of contrast medium for "fluoroscopic selective catheterization," which are actions that aid in diagnosing a condition (tubal patency).

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as catheters and wire guides, which are hardware. The performance studies also focus on physical properties and sterilization, not software validation.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue that have been taken from the human body to detect diseases or other conditions.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is used for the catheterization of the fallopian tubes and the injection of contrast medium for fluoroscopic evaluation of tubal patency. This is an in vivo procedure (performed within the living body) using a medical device to visualize and assess the physical structure and function of the fallopian tubes.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing a biological sample taken from the patient. The device is used directly within the body.

Therefore, the Rosch Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set is a medical device used for an in vivo diagnostic procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic test.

Both the Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set, the Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set, and the Fallopian Tube Catheterization Wire Guide with Platinum Tip are sterilized using ethylene oxide, packaged in Tyvek® polyethylene peel-open pouches, and have a shelf-life of three years. The devices are intended for one time use.

Indications for Use:

Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set:

The Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set is intended to be used through a uterine access device for fluoroscopic selective catheterization of the proximal fallopian tube(s) and injection of contrast medium in the evaluation of tubal patency.

Comparison to Predicate Device:

The predicate device is the Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set (K955508). The intended use for the predicate device is as follows:

The Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set is a fallopian tube catheterization set intended to be used through a Thurmond-Rösch Hysterocath® (K884291) or other uterine access device for fluoroscopic selective catheterization and cannulation of the proximal fallopian tube(s), followed by the introduction of contrast medium, in the evaluation of the tubal patency.

This indication for use is identical to the indication for use in the subject device sets except it includes reference to a specific uterine access device and indicates for cannulation in addition to catheterization of the proximal fallopian tubes. The Fallopian Tube Catheterization Wire Guide with Platinum Tip is indicated to assist in the evaluation of tubal patency as indicated by both the predicate and subject device sets.

The differences between the predicate and the subject devices are listed below:

Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheter Set

(1) Wording in the indications for use

Fallopian Tube Catheterization (FTC) Set

(1) Wording in the indications for use

(2) The injection catheter for the FTC Set is made from Nylon instead of Teflon and has a radiopaque tip

(3) The wire guides included in the FTC Set vary slightly from those included in the predicate

(4) The FTC Set is not sold with an introduction catheter

As noted above the differences in the indications for use of the predicate and subject device sets do not raise any different questions of safety and effectiveness because subject device indications are within the intended use of the predicate device.

Though the nylon injection catheter included in the FTC Set is a different material and has a radiopaque tip, the material serves the same function as the Teflon in the predicate submission. Testing has been conducted to assure the nylon material performs as intended. The radiopaque tip provides visibility under fluoroscopy but as the Teflon

6

material was also visible under fluoroscopy there is no change to the procedure or safety and effectiveness.

The wire guides included with the Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set are slightly different from those included in the predicate. The 0.035 inch diameter Double Flexible Tip Safe-T-J® Wire Guide included in the FTC Set has a flexible tip on one end and a curved tip on the other. This effectively combines the functionality of both the straight safety wire guide and the curved tip 0.035 Safe-T-J® wire guide included in the predicate. The 0.035 inch diameter wire guides are made from the same materials. One variation of the FTC set comes with a 0.018 inch diameter Nitinol Cope Wire Guide which varies from the corresponding predicate wire guide in that it is nitinol instead of stainless and its diameter is 0.003 inches larger. The functionality and biocompatibility of the nitinol material has been tested and the results demonstrate that no different questions of safety and effectiveness were raised.

The FTC Sets are not sold with a 9 French introduction catheter because many physicians prefer to use a uterine access device with a smaller working channel which makes this set component unnecessary.

The subject devices have similar indications for use, methods of operation, and fundamental technological characteristics as the predicate device. Modifications to the subject devices from the predicate device are supported by testing and raise no different questions of safety and effectiveness.

Test Data:

The following testing was performed to demonstrate that Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set and the Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set met applicable design and performance requirements.

  • Sterilization Validation testing per ISO 11135-1:2007 .

  • O Seal Strength testing per ASTM F88-09
  • Visual Inspection: No package displayed damage (tears, folds, puncture holes, O etc.)
  • Bench Performance studies before and after aging demonstrated that all predetermined . acceptance criteria were met in the following tests (No age testing was conducted for the wire guides, radiopacity, or tip deflection):
    • . Compatibility Testing –The components in each set to be used together as stated in the instructions for use were tested for dimensional compatibility. The testing demonstrated compatibility between the components included in the sets being submitted.
    • . Tensile Testing (catheters hub to shaft and tip to shaft) – Tensile testing was performed on the hub to shaft connection for each catheter and also on the tip to shaft section of the catheters that have a bonded tip. The acceptance criterion for these tensile tests was determined by Cook's internal procedures and according to Section 5.3 of JIS T 3246:2011. Testing demonstrated that that the peak load value was greater than the predetermined acceptance criterion.
    • Torque Response Testing (5.5 Fr catheter) Torque control catheter was ■ placed through its corresponding 9.0 French introducing catheter and the hub was rotated and the response of the distal tip was noted. Testing demonstrated that the torque-control catheter has an appropriate torque response per the predetermined acceptance criteria.
    • I Liquid Leakage Test (5.5 Fr and 3 Fr catheters) – Liquid leakage testing was done on the catheters that will be used for the injection of contrast. The acceptance criterion was that the catheter assembly will not leak when an injection pressure of 38 kPa is applied. Testing demonstrated that fluid path catheter assembly did not leak under the predetermined injection pressure.
    • . Corrosion Resistance (wire guide) - Representative testing was conducted according to Annex B of BS EN ISO 11070:2014 for each wire guide included in the subject device sets. Testing demonstrated that tensile

8

properties did not degrade after exposure of wires to corrosive conditions. The predetermined acceptance criterion was met.

  • Fracture Testing (wire guide) - Representative testing was conducted for each wire guide included in the subject device sets. The fracture testing was performed according of Annex F of BS EN ISO 11070:2014 and an approved study protocol. The Testing demonstrated that no signs of fracture were observed in the region of interest, according to the predetermined acceptance criterion.
  • . Tensile Test (wire guide) - Representative testing was conducted according to Annex H of BS EN ISO 11070:2014 for each wire guide included in the subject device sets. Testing demonstrated that the peak load value was greater than or equal to the predetermined acceptance criterion.
  • Resistance to Damage by Flex (wire guide) Representative testing was " conducted according to Annex G of BS EN ISO 11070:2014 for each wire guide included in the subject device sets. Testing demonstrated that there were no signs of defects or damage, when subjected to repeated flexing. The predetermined acceptance criterion was met.
  • Radiopacity Evaluation Testing demonstrated that the subject device was ■ determined to be radiopaque in a simulated clinical setting.
  • . Tip Deflection Testing – Testing was conducted in order to compare the distal tip flexibility of the subject device to the predicate. Tested section included both the shaft material and bonded tip material of the subject device. Testing demonstrated that tip flexibility between the subject and predicate devices was comparable.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the minor differences in indications for use statements between the subject and predicate devices do not alter the intended use of the subject device. The differences in technological characteristics between the subject and predicate device do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The results of performance testing support that the Rösch-Thurmond Fallopian Tube Catheterization Set and the Fallopian Tube

9

Catheterization Set are as safe and effective as the predicate device. Therefore, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate.
