Intended Use
The Dr. Amplatz Micro Plug is indicated for arterial embolization in the peripheral vasculature.
Device Description
The Dr. Amplatz Micro Plug includes the Micro Plug Device which is a self-expanding braided Nitinol vascular occlusion implant that is supplied with components used for implantation. The Micro Plug Device has been designed with a material, size, configuration and shape that allows introduction through a catheter for the occlusion of blood vessels in the peripheral vasculature. The Micro Plug Devices are provided in four different diameters (3 mm - 6 mm) to treat different sized blood vessels in the peripheral vasculature. The Micro Plug Device has radiopaque marker bands attached to each end and a screw attachment for connection to a Delivery Wire. The Micro Plug Device is packaged collapsed within a Loader and attached to a 180 cm Delivery Wire that is provided within a hoop dispenser. The delivery system includes a 125 cm Delivery Catheter that is provided within a hoop dispenser for delivery and implantation of the Device; the Delivery Catheter contains a standard luer hub adapter at the proximal end and a single radiopaque marker band at the distal end. The Delivery Catheter is hydrophilic coated. Tuohy Borst Valves are provided for flushing; a Torque Device is provided for releasing the Device. The Dr. Amplatz Micro Plug is designed to be used under fluoroscopy for delivery and implantation in the peripheral vasculature by physicians trained in vascular embolization.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a vascular occlusion implant and its delivery system. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance data.

Yes
The device is indicated for "arterial embolization in the peripheral vasculature," which involves occluding blood vessels to treat a medical condition or prevent bleeding, thus directly addressing a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is indicated for arterial embolization in the peripheral vasculature, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one. It is used to occlude blood vessels, not to provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description clearly details a physical implant (Micro Plug Device) and associated hardware components for delivery and implantation, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the Dr. Amplatz Micro Plug is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "arterial embolization in the peripheral vasculature." This describes a therapeutic procedure performed within the body to block blood vessels.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical implant (a self-expanding braided Nitinol vascular occlusion implant) designed to be placed inside blood vessels. It is delivered using a catheter and delivery wire.
  • Function: The device's function is to physically occlude (block) blood vessels.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions.

The Dr. Amplatz Micro Plug is a therapeutic medical device used for interventional procedures, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.

§ 870.3300 Vascular embolization device.

(a)
Identification. A vascular embolization device is an intravascular implant intended to control hemorrhaging due to aneurysms, certain types of tumors (e.g., nephroma, hepatoma, uterine fibroids), and arteriovenous malformations. This does not include cyanoacrylates and other embolic agents, which act by polymerization or precipitation. Embolization devices used in neurovascular applications are also not included in this classification, see § 882.5950 of this chapter.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls.) The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Vascular and Neurovascular Embolization Devices.” For availability of this guidance document, see § 870.1(e).

Dear Mr. Oslund:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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) for

devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.html; good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.

For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/) and CDRH Learn (http://www.fda.gov/Training/CDRHLearn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic.
