Intended Use
The Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides are used to facilitate the placement of devices during diagnostic and interventional procedures.
Device Description
The Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides are Class II devices according to 21 CFR §870.1330; product code DQX (Wire, Guide, Catheter). The Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides have flexible distal and proximal ends. Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides are used to facilitate the placement of devices during diagnostic and interventional procedures. The Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides, subject of this submission, have been modified from the predicate device, Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides (K171912), to include an additional diameter of 0.015 inches to the uncoated configurations with lengths of 30, 40, and 60 centimeters. Additionally, the subject device has been modified from the predicate device to include coated configurations for the existing 0.021 and 0.025 inch diameter devices with lengths of 40, 50, and 60 centimeters. The Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides are manufactured using a stainless steel core wire, and stainless steel coils. Some configurations include an exterior PTFE coating on the coils. The modification to the Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides have been created to provide additional options for physicians in selecting the appropriate wire guide during diagnostic and interventional procedures. The Double Flexible Tipped Wire Guides are packaged, sterile devices intended for single patient use and labeled with a five-year shelf life.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a wire guide, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No
The device is described as a 'wire guide' used to facilitate the placement of other devices during procedures, not to provide therapy itself. Its intended use is purely for guidance and placement.

No

The device is a wire guide used to facilitate the placement of other devices during diagnostic and interventional procedures, not to perform the diagnosis itself.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical wire guide made of stainless steel and coils, with some configurations including a PTFE coating. The performance studies also focus on physical properties like corrosion, flexing, torque strength, fracture, and tensile strength. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "to facilitate the placement of devices during diagnostic and interventional procedures." This describes a tool used during a medical procedure, not a test performed on a sample from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics and function of a wire guide used for navigation within the body. It doesn't mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Regulatory Classification: The device is classified under 21 CFR §870.1330, which is for "Wire, Guide, Catheter." This classification falls under the category of cardiovascular devices, not in vitro diagnostic devices.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described are related to the physical properties and functionality of the wire guide (corrosion, flexing, torque strength, fracture, tensile strength, tip flexibility, catheter compatibility), not the accuracy or reliability of a diagnostic test.

In vitro diagnostic devices are specifically designed to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not fit that description.

Dear Ms. Allman:

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. 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.
