Intended Use
The ACIST HDi System is intended to be used for the intravascular ultrasound imaging assessment of coronary artery disease. Intravascular ultrasound imaging is indicated in patients who are candidates for transluminal coronary interventional procedures. The ACIST Kodama Intravascular Ultrasound Catheter is a medical device for use by or on the order of a physician and is intended for ultrasound examination of coronary intravascular pathology only. Intravascular ultrasound imaging is indicated in patients who are candidates for transluminal coronary interventional procedures.
Device Description
The primary function of HDi System is to collect reflected ultrasonic (sound) waves from the Kodama catheter and render an intravascular image on the console touchscreen. The catheter emits sound energy from a transducer at the tip; sound waves reflected from the inner vascular tissues are received from the transducer and sent to the console where a high resolution, cross-sectional image is displayed on the touchscreen in real-time. The main devices are the Console, Patient Interface Module (PIM), Linear Translation System (LTS) (optional), and Kodama Catheter. The console houses hardware and software required to generate the energy used to excite the transducer in the Kodama catheter; it is the center of control and system architecture for how signals are acquired, processed, images constructed and presented, and overall power management and control of the PIM and LTS. The system digitally records case images, provides a review of recorded cases, and provides for the archival of recorded cases onto removable media The handheld PIM provides the electromechanical interface between the catheter and the console. It also provides the mechanical interface to secure the catheter, as well as the mechanical energy to rotate the catheter's imaging assembly. The LTS device provides automated, controlled linear translation of the catheter by providing mechanical coupling to the PIM and to the catheter's telescoping anchor as the PIM is pulled back along the longitudinal axis. The coupling between the LTS and PIM and LTS to catheter is strictly mechanical. The LTS device allows the user to perform automatic pullbacks and can be controlled via touchscreen buttons on the console or the buttons on the LTS. Manual pullbacks may be performed with or without the LTS, making the use of the LTS optional to the user. The Kodama Catheter emits sound energy from its transducer at the distal tip, which is guided into the coronary arteries of the heart. The catheter can be operated at two different frequencies, 40MHz and/or 60MHz, depending on user preference. The catheter design includes an imaging assembly (with transducer, drive cable, coaxial cable, and rotor), sheath assembly (which includes the femoral marker and hydrophilic coating), telescope assembly, and catheter hub assembly. The electrical energy from the catheter is transmitted, via the transmission line embedded in the drive cable, back to the HDi console for signal processing and image reconstruction.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard ultrasound signal processing and image reconstruction, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No.
The device is used for imaging assessment of coronary artery disease, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a direct therapeutic one. It provides imagery for physicians to make decisions, but it does not treat or cure the condition itself.

Yes

The device is intended for "intravascular ultrasound imaging assessment of coronary artery disease" and "ultrasound examination of coronary intravascular pathology," which are diagnostic purposes. It generates and displays images of internal structures to help physicians identify and evaluate disease or pathology.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a Console, Patient Interface Module (PIM), Linear Translation System (LTS) (optional), and Kodama Catheter, all of which are integral to the device's function. While software is mentioned as being housed in the console for processing and control, the device is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended to be used in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue samples, derived from the human body, in order to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring or compatibility purposes.
  • Device Function: The ACIST HDi System and Kodama Catheter are used for intravascular ultrasound imaging. This is a technique that uses sound waves to create images of the inside of blood vessels within the body.
  • Specimen Type: The device does not examine specimens derived from the human body. It directly images structures within the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "intravascular ultrasound imaging assessment of coronary artery disease" and "ultrasound examination of coronary intravascular pathology." This is an imaging procedure performed in vivo, not an in vitro test on a sample.

Therefore, the ACIST HDi System and Kodama Catheter fall under the category of imaging devices used for diagnostic purposes in vivo, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The Medical Advisory Board supports the proposed changes to the labeling contraindications and adverse events.
Cumulative changes are supported by bench testing, operating environment testing, packaging verification, software verification, electrical safety testing (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility testing (IEC 60601-1-2), and biocompatibility testing. The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the proposed devices have been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for their intended use.
No new safety or performance issues were raised during the testing and, therefore, the HDi System and Kodama Catheter may be considered substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
