The device description and performance testing focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a guide wire, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No.
The device is intended to facilitate the placement and exchange of devices during diagnostic and interventional procedures, acting as a tool rather than providing direct therapeutic action.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is intended to "facilitate the placement and exchange of devices during peripheral diagnostic and interventional procedures." The inclusion of "diagnostic" directly indicates its use in diagnostic procedures.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a stainless-steel core wire, PTFE coating, coils, and an optional extension system connector, indicating it is a hardware medical 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 and exchange of devices during peripheral diagnostic and interventional procedures." This describes a tool used within the body during a medical procedure, not a device used to test samples outside the body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description details a guide wire with physical characteristics and components designed for navigating within blood vessels. This is consistent with an interventional medical device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
Therefore, the Merit GO2WIRE™ is a medical device used for interventional procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Merit Go2Wire guide wire will consist of 0.035" guide wire configurations available in 145, 175, 210, 260, and 300cm. The distal tip flex configurations are Floppy, Standard and Intermediate (Modified J). The distal tip shapes are either straight or modified J.
The wire is composed of a stainless-steel core wire, a PTFE coated coil, a white PTFE sleeve, a platinum-tungsten marker coil, and an optional extension system connector. The wire's proximal end is covered by a white PTFE sleeve that terminates at 100cm from the distal tip. The distal 100 cm of the wire is covered with a green PTFE pre-coated coil. The PTFE coated coil and platinum-tungsten coil are welded to the core on the very distal tip. The distal tip is shapeable and radiopaque. A torque device is included to facilitate wire steering within the vascular anatomy.
An 0.035" extension wire consisting of PTFE coated stainless steel 155cm in length to extend the length of the wire to allow initial usage with a short wire and then extendable to allow catheter exchanges when required.

Dear Michael O'Sullivan:
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/cfpmp/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

to Predicate | The Technological characteristics of the subject Merit Go2Wire | |
Guide Wire are substantially equivalent to those of Predicate Device, | ||
the Wholey Guide Wire System[K120863]. The Wholey Guide wire | ||
was fully characterized by Merit and an equivalent wire was | ||
developed by Merit based upon this characterization. The subject | ||

composed of a stainless-steel core wire, a PTFE coated coil, a white | ||
PTFE sleeve, a platinum-tungsten marker coil, and an optional | ||
extension system connector. | ||
The fundamental technology and operating principles of the subject | ||
