The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and mechanical performance of a balloon catheter, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is intended for the "dilation of the urinary tract," which is a direct treatment or modification of a body function for therapeutic purposes.
No
Explanation: The device is indicated for "dilation of the urinary tract," which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one. While it uses x-ray fluoroscopy for visualization, this is for guiding the dilation procedure, not for diagnosing a condition.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter with a balloon, constructed from medical-grade nylon and containing radiopaque materials. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Device Function: The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a surgical device used to physically dilate a part of the urinary tract. It is used within the body to perform a procedure, not to analyze a specimen taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is "dilation of the urinary tract," which is a therapeutic procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and function of the catheter itself, not on the analysis of biological samples.

Device Description
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a multiple lumen catheter with a dilatation balloon mounted at the distal tip. Dilatation balloon catheters are used to exert radial force to dilate narrow ureteral segments.
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheters are sterile, single-use devices. The EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheters are available in 5.8 French (Fr) diameter, with a catheter length of 80 centimeters (cm). There will be three (3) balloon diameters, (4mm, 5mm and 6mm) and two (2) balloon lengths (4cm and 10cm)
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheters are constructed of a medical grade nylon material. This material has been USP Class VI tested. The base material is compounded with BaSO4 to render the Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter radiopaque under x-ray fluoroscopy. The catheter also has radio-opaque marker bands on the proximal and distal ends of the balloon for visualization during use. All colorants used are compliant with FDA standards.

Dear John Hoffer:
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

Device Description
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a multiple lumen catheter with a dilatation balloon mounted at the distal tip. Dilatation balloon catheters are used to exert radial force to dilate narrow ureteral segments.
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheters are sterile, single-use devices. The EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheters are available in 5.8 French (Fr) diameter, with a catheter length of 80 centimeters (cm). There will be three (3) balloon diameters, (4mm, 5mm and 6mm) and two (2) balloon lengths (4cm and 10cm)
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheters are constructed of a medical grade nylon material. This material has been USP Class VI tested. The base material is compounded with BaSO4 to render the Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter radiopaque under x-ray fluoroscopy. The catheter also has radio-opaque marker bands on the proximal and distal ends of the balloon for visualization during use. All colorants used are compliant with FDA standards.
Technological Characteristics
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheters have the same basic technological characteristics as the predicate device, Boston Scientific's Uromax Ultra Balloon Dilatation Catheter. They both are a multiple lumen catheter with a dilatation balloon mounted at the distal tip. They are both manufactured using PET for the inflation balloon which is the primary functional component of the devices. At the proximal end, they both have leur lock connectors that will attach to the inflation device to inflate the balloon during use. As noted above, both devices are compounded with Barium sulfate and radiopaque marking bands to allow visualization under fluoroscopy.
Performance Data
The Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter was subjected to the following tests to assure design and performance under the specified testing parameters:
- Sterilitv Packaging Biocompatibility Balloon Burst Durability Test Balloon Deflation Time Balloon/Scope Compatibility Radiopacity Effective Working Length Catheter Tip Length Balloon Diameter @ RBP Balloon Length @ OP Catheter Shaft OD
5
All testing was found to be acceptable and substantially equivalent to those of the predicate device.
Substantial Equivalence
A comparison of design characteristics has been performed and demonstrates that the proposed Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of intended use, technological characteristics, type of materials and performance characteristics. Therefore, the proposed Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device.
Conclusion
Based on the data and information comparing the Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter and the predicate device we conclude they are substantially equivalent as they have the same intended use, basic design, principle of operation, technology, materials, and performance to the predicate. Any minor differences between the subject and predicate devices do not raise any concerns regarding the overall safety or effectiveness. Thus, the Dornier EQUINOX Balloon Dilatation Catheter is substantially equivalent to its predicate device.
