The description focuses on the mechanical and structural features of a deflectable guide catheter and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device is described as a guide catheter meant for introducing other medical instruments, implying it is a diagnostic or access device rather than directly treating a condition.
No
This device is a guide catheter intended to facilitate the introduction of other medical instruments. It does not perform diagnostic functions like analyzing images or physiological signals to diagnose a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical catheter with a handle, tip, marker, valve, and stopcock, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a guide catheter intended to provide a pathway for other medical instruments to be introduced into the peripheral and coronary vasculature. It is a tool used within the body for interventional procedures.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of this device analyzing any biological specimens. Its function is purely mechanical and structural to facilitate access.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the BioCardia Morph Universal Deflectable Guide Catheter is a medical device used for interventional procedures, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description
The BioCardia 8F Morph® DNA Deflectable Guide Catheter is a sterile, single use, bi-directional deflectable guide catheter. When the handle is fully actuated, the distal tip deflects to a minimum 135° arc in either of two directions with a nominal curve distance of 30 mm. The catheter tip includes a fluoroscopic marker to help visualize the tip location. The Morph DNA handle includes a brake to hold the deflection angle, an integrated hemostasis valve with a swiveling sideport, and 3-way stopcock.

Dear Patrick 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. 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
