No

The device description clearly states it consists of two component devices, a detachable coil (hardware) and a detachment generator (hardware), and mentions hardware components like platinum coils, a pusher, a PVA rod, a sheath adapter, a power source, and connection cables. While software verification and validation testing was performed, the device itself is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the endovascular embolization and vascular occlusion of blood vessels within the neurovascular and peripheral vasculature. This is a therapeutic procedure performed in vivo (within the body) to treat conditions like aneurysms and malformations.
  • Device Description: The device is a system of coils and a generator used to physically block blood flow. This is a mechanical/electrical intervention, not a test performed on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The following in vitro tests were performed:

  • Appearance test on i-ED COIL: Visual inspection using a microscope was conducted on the detach coil and the sheath adaptor. In addition, the position markers was visually checked. All samples had no visual abnormalities and passed the acceptance criteria.
  • Dimensional verification on i-ED COIL: Dimensions of the samples were measured with instruments (gauge, caliper, and scale). All samples were confirmed to meet all acceptance criteria based on the dimensional specification.
  • Strength test on i-ED COIL: After swelling the PVA rod, inner line strength, product strengths, coil strength and pusher strength were measured by a tensile tester. All samples without deviation passed each acceptance criterion. It was demonstrated that i-ED COIL has necessary strength for clinical usage.
  • Delivery performance test on i-ED COIL: A test sample was inserted into the microcatheter in a simulated ICA circuit. All samples met the acceptance criteria about maximum load based on the result of the control device.
  • Detachment performance test on i-ED COIL System: After the PVA rod of the detach coil was swelled, the detach coil was advanced through the sheath adapter. The detachment part of the sample was soaked in heparinized saline at 35°C in the beaker. The tester pressed the detach button of the EDG v4, and confirmed that the platinum coil could be successfully detached from the pusher within pre-specified time. All test samples could be detached within the pre-specified time and met the acceptance criteria.
  • Detachment durability test on EDG v4: Measured whether sufficient power for the detachment of i-ED COIL was output from the EDG v4 samples during 30 times detachment operations using the digital power meter and non-inductive variable resistor. Since the outputs from all EDG v4 samples during 30 times detachment procedures were stable, the acceptance criteria was met.
  • Corrosion resistance test on i-ED COIL: In reference to ISO 11070: 2014, test procedures were carried out. The tester confirmed whether there was sign of corrosion in metal section of sample using a digital microscope. In all test samples, there was no sign of corrosion. Therefore, the result met the acceptance criterion.
  • Particulate evaluation on i-ED COIL: The simulated use test model incorporated with the tortuous part was used for the evaluation. After 20 cycles of retraction and advancement of a test sample were repeated in the model, the platinum coil was detached with the EDG v4. The test sample solution and the baseline sample solution were analysed using the light obscuration tester. The particulates generated from i-ED COIL were equivalent or less than the control device. Therefore, the result met the acceptance criterion.
  • Simulated use evaluation on i-ED COIL System: The vessel model with aneurysms, the biplane imaging system and simulated worst neurovascular system, guiding catheter, microcatheters, etc. were used in this test. Physicians semi-quantitatively evaluated trackability and delivery performance in microcatheter, coil positioning performance, repositioning performance (repeat delivery), framing, filling and finishing performance, and detachment performance of i-ED COIL System. Considering the test results, the i-ED COIL System was judged to be able to use without problems even in the very tortuous vasculature considered to be the worst case.
  • Usability evaluation on i-ED COIL System: Physicians were briefed on the device operation, testing procedures, and were provided i-ED COIL and EDG v4 IFUs. The physicians semi-quantitatively scored each stage (from the preparation of i-ED COIL and EDG v4 to the detachment of the platinum coil). In all of stages, all of physicians scored the usability as equal to or greater than the acceptance criterion. Therefore, it was concluded the i-ED COIL System had adequate usability.
  • MRI Compatibility tests on i-ED COIL: In reference to related FDA Guidance 'Establishing Safety and Compatibility of Passive Implants in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment' and related ASTM F2052-15, ASTM F2213-06, ASTM F2182-11a, and ASTM F2119-07, effects of displacement force, torque, heating by RF fields, image artifact of MR imaging on implanted i-ED COIL were evaluated to establish safety and compatibility of i-ED COIL in the MR environment. It was concluded that i-ED COIL was MR conditional as same as the predicate devices. The MR compatibility information was reflected appropriately in the labeling.
  • MRA Artifact on i-ED COIL: According to ASTM F2119-07, image artifact of i-ED COIL in MR Angiography was measured. The worst-case image artifact by i-ED COIL was considered as minimal as with the predicate device.
  • Shelf Life testing on i-ED COIL: Aging test was conducted on samples that underwent simulated transportation (according to ISO 4180) and accelerated-aged storage equivalent to three years real time storage. Package integrity tests were carried out on the samples in reference to ASTM standards including F88/F88M and F2096. All results of the aging tests met the acceptance criteria were the same as those of the performance testing. Therefore, three-years shelf-life of i-ED COIL was established.

on i-ED COIL
SystemThe purpose was to demonstrate that i-ED COIL could be
detachable with the EDG v4 within pre-specified time, and
the combination of i-ED COIL and the EDG v4 is a reliable
detachment mechanism for the clinical usage.
According to the IFU, after the PVA rod of the detach coil
was swelled, the detach coil was advanced through the
sheath adapter. The detachment part of the sample was
soaked in heparinized saline at 35°C in the beaker. The tester
pressed the detach button of the EDG v4, and confirmed that
the platinum coil could be successfully detached from the
pusher within pre-specified time.All test samples could be
detached within the pre-
specified time and met
the acceptance criteria.
Detachment
durability test on
EDG v4In order to demonstrate the detachment reliability of i-ED
COIL System and durability of the EDG v4, it was measured
whether sufficient power for the detachment of i-ED COIL
was output from the EDG v4 samples during 30 times
detachment operations using the digital power meter and
non-inductive variable resistor.Since the outputs from
all EDG v4 samples
during 30 times
detachment procedures
were stable, the
acceptance criteria
was met.
Corrosion
resistance test on
i-ED COILThe purpose was to demonstrate that the i-ED COIL does not
show sign of corrosions in the intended clinical use.

conducted on samples that underwent simulated
transportation (according to ISO 4180) and accelerated-
aged storage equivalent to three years real time storage. The
test items were same as above-mentioned performance
testing except for the MRI compatibility and MRA artifact
testings. Furthermore, to verify maintenance of sterility for
sterilization packages of i-ED COIL within the proposed
shelf life, package integrity tests were carried out on the
samples in reference to ASTM standards including
F88/F88M and F2096. | All results of the aging
tests met the acceptance
