ASAHI PTCA Guide Wires are intended to facilitate the placement of balloon dilatation catheters during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). The ASAHI PTCA Guide Wires are not to be used in the neurovasculature.
The ASAHI® PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI SION black consists of a core wire and a coil assembly. The coil assembly consists of an inner coil, safety wire, and an outer coil, soldered to the core wire. The distal portion of the coil is radiopaque so as to easily confirm its position under radioscopy. In addition, coatings are applied on the surface of the ASAHI® PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI SION black. The coil and distal portion of the quide wire are coated with polyurethane and then covered with hydrophilic coating. The proximal portion of the guide wire is coated with PTFE. The ASAHI® PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI SION black is available in various lengths and tip shapes. The shorter length device is designed for use with a commercially available ASAHI INTECC extension wire.
This document describes the premarket notification for the ASAHI® PTCA Guide Wire ASAHI SION black. It does not contain information about an AI/ML powered device, therefore no information regarding acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets acceptance criteria related to AI/ML device performance can be extracted.
The document discusses non-clinical laboratory testing performed on the guide wire to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, but this is for a physical medical device, not a software or AI-based one. The types of tests conducted are standard for guide wires (e.g., tensile strength, torqueability, tip flexibility, etc.) and the conclusion is that the device met all acceptance criteria and performed similarly to predicate devices.
§ 870.1330 Catheter guide wire.
(a)
Identification. A catheter guide wire is a coiled wire that is designed to fit inside a percutaneous catheter for the purpose of directing the catheter through a blood vessel.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a torque device that is manually operated, non-patient contacting, and intended to manipulate non-cerebral vascular guide wires, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.
