More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard ultrasound catheter and explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found".

No
The device is described as an "imaging guidance" tool, explicitly stating it is "not treatment delivery".

Yes
The device is described as providing "real-time three-dimensional ultrasound images of anatomical structures and devices," which are used for "imaging guidance." This process of visualizing internal anatomy to aid in medical procedures inherently involves gathering information to inform a diagnosis or guide a medical intervention.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "12.5F catheter with 90 cm of usable length and four-way steering," which is a physical hardware component.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a catheter intended for intracardiac and intra-luminal visualization using ultrasound. This means it is used inside the body to create images of internal structures.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for imaging guidance during procedures, not for analyzing samples taken from the body.

The device is an imaging catheter used for real-time visualization within the heart and great vessels. This falls under the category of medical devices used for imaging and diagnosis in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro.

Dear Hyunjung Lee:

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. Iisting 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-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

A SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF THE CLINICAL TESTS SUBMITTED, REFERENCED, OR RELIED ON FOR A DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE.

Because the ACUSON AcuNav Volume ICE catheter in this submission uses the same technology, patient contact materials and principles as the predicate device, clinical data is not required to establish substantial equivalence.

SUMMARY

Intended use and other key features are consistent with traditional clinical practice and FDA guidelines. Changes to the currently cleared AcuNav Volume ICE catheter include 1) a clarification to the indications for use statement and 2) update on labeling. There are no new Indications for Use in this device modification. The design and development process of the manufacturer conforms with 21 CFR 820 Quality System Regulation and ISO 13485:2003 quality system standards. The product is designed to conform to applicable medical device safety standards and compliance is verified through independent evaluation with ongoing factory surveillance. Diagnostic ultrasound has accumulated a long history of safe and effective performance.

Therefore it is the opinion of Siemens Medical that the ACUSON AcuNav Volume ICE Catheter is substantially equivalent with respect to safety and effectiveness to devices currently cleared for market.
