No
The description focuses on mechanical and electrical components for atherectomy and does not mention any AI/ML capabilities or data processing for decision making.
Yes
The device is described as an "atherectomy system" intended for "atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature," which is a medical procedure to remove plaque from arteries to improve blood flow, thereby treating a medical condition.
No
This device is designed for atherectomy, which is a therapeutic procedure to remove plaque from blood vessels, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a catheter, handle with a motor and battery, and a wire support clip. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics and functional testing of these hardware components. There is no mention of software as a primary or standalone component.
Based on the provided information, the Phoenix Atherectomy System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature." This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the living body) to remove plaque from blood vessels.
- Device Description: The description details a mechanical device with a catheter, handle, motor, and cutter designed to physically remove plaque from within the patient's blood vessels.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, while the Phoenix Atherectomy System is used to directly treat a condition within the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Phoenix Atherectomy System is intended for use in atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature. It is not intended for use in coronary, carotid, iliac or renal vasculature.

Device Description
The Phoenix Atherectomy System is a sterile, single-use device designed for atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature. The Phoenix Atherectomy System has two main components: the Phoenix Catheter and the Phoenix Handle.
The Phoenix Catheter is a flexible, over-the-wire (OTW), front-cutting Catheter that continuously captures and clears debulked plaque proximally through the Catheter and Handle into a collection reservoir that resides outside the patient. For use, the Phoenix Catheter is inserted into the Phoenix Handle. The Handle incorporates a self-contained battery-powered motor designed to drive and rotate the cutter of the Phoenix Atherectomy Catheter at its specified rotational speed. The device is activated by an ON/OFF slider switch on the top of the Handle. A Wire Support Clip is used to hold a guidewire in a fixed position relative to the Handle and prevent guidewire rotation during the procedure. The Catheter, Handle, and Wire Support Clip are packaged as sterile, single-use components of the Phoenix Atherectomy System.
There are multiple models of the Phoenix Catheter. The Phoenix Tracking Catheter models track directly over the guidewire with no tip deflection capability. These models are available in 1.8 mm and 2.2 mm tip diameter sizes; a 2.4 mm tip diameter size (identical in design to the currently marketed 2.4 mm Phoenix Deflecting Catheter) has been added under this 510(k). The controls for rotation are housed in the Phoenix Handle when the Catheter is inserted into the Handle. All Phoenix Catheter models are compatible with commercially available 0.014" exchange length (260 cm or greater) guidewires, and all use the same Phoenix Handle.
This 510(k) includes modifications to the 1.8 mm and 2.2 mm tip diameter 149 cm Phoenix Tracking Catheter models to improve the overall catheter pushability and internal debris maceration of the longer length catheter models and (as just noted previously) to also add a 2.4 mm tip diameter 130 cm Phoenix Tracking Catheter to the Phoenix Catheter product family.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
To demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the modified Phoenix Atherectomy System to the predicate Phoenix Atherectomy System, the performance and technological characteristics were evaluated by completion of the following testing:
- Dimensional and Visual Inspection .
- Simulated Use
- Cutter Torque Chain Torque-to-Failure Test
- Functional Outer Shaft Torque Test
- Knob to Shaft Testing
- . Catheter Drive Train Stress Test
- Cutter Stall Test
- . Temperature Rise of Catheter During Simulated Use
- Kink Bend Radius Test
- Catheter Trackability in Below-the-Knee Anatomy ●
- . Sheath Flow Rate (2.4mm X 130 cm Phoenix Catheter only)
- Sheath Compatibility (2.4mm X 130 cm Phoenix Catheter only)
The results from this testing demonstrate that the performance and technological characteristics of the modified Phoenix Atherectomy System meet pre-defined design requirements and that the modified Phoenix Atherectomy System performs in a manner equivalent to the predicate Phoenix Atherectomy System with the identical intended use.

Dear Ms. Chang:
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.
