No
The document describes a mechanical device for clot retrieval and does not mention any software or algorithms that would incorporate AI/ML.
Yes
The device is clearly indicated for therapeutic use, specifically for restoring blood flow by removing thrombus in acute ischemic stroke patients, which directly treats a medical condition.
No
Explanation: The Solitaire™ Revascularization Device is described as a device used to restore blood flow by removing thrombus in patients experiencing ischemic stroke. Its function is therapeutic (removing a clot), not diagnostic (identifying or characterizing a condition).
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical device made of nitinol with radiopaque markers, designed for mechanical clot retrieval. It is not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Solitaire™ Revascularization Device is a physical device used within the body (in the neurovasculature) to mechanically remove blood clots. It does not analyze biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a therapeutic intervention (restoring blood flow by removing thrombus) performed directly on the patient's anatomy.
Therefore, the Solitaire™ Revascularization Device is a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
- The Solitaire™ Revascularization Device is indicated for use to restore blood flow in the neurovasculature by removing thrombus for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke to reduce disability in patients with a persistent, proximal anterior circulation, large vessel occlusion, and smaller core infarcts who have first received intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV t-PA). Endovascular therapy with the device should be started within 6 hours of symptom onset.
- The Solitaire™ Revascularization Device is indicated to restore blood flow by removing thrombus from a large intracranial vessel in patients experiencing ischemic stroke within 8 hours of symptom onset. Patients who are ineligible for IV t-PA or who fail IV t-PA therapy are candidates for treatment.
- The Solitaire™ Revascularization Device is indicated for use to restore blood flow in the neurovasculature by removing thrombus for the treatment of acute ische to reduce disability in patients with a persistent, proximal anterior circulation, large vessel occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) or middle cerebral artery (MCA)-M1 segments with smaller core infarcts (
§ 882.5600 Neurovascular mechanical thrombectomy device for acute ischemic stroke treatment.
(a)
Identification. A neurovascular mechanical thrombectomy device for acute ischemic stroke treatment is a prescription device used in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke to improve clinical outcomes. The device is delivered into the neurovasculature with an endovascular approach, mechanically removes thrombus from the body, and restores blood flow in the neurovasculature.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) The patient contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(2) Non-clinical performance testing must demonstrate that the device performs as intended under anticipated conditions of use, including:
(i) Mechanical testing to demonstrate the device can withstand anticipated tensile, torsional, and compressive forces.
(ii) Mechanical testing to evaluate the radial forces exerted by the device.
(iii) Non-clinical testing to verify the dimensions of the device.
(iv) Non-clinical testing must demonstrate the device can be delivered to the target location in the neurovasculature and retrieve simulated thrombus under simulated use conditions.
(v) Non-clinical testing must demonstrate the device is radiopaque and can be visualized.
(vi) Non-clinical testing must evaluate the coating integrity and particulates under simulated use conditions.
(vii) Animal testing must evaluate the safety of the device, including damage to the vessels or tissue under anticipated use conditions.
(3) Performance data must support the sterility and pyrogenicity of the patient contacting components of the device.
(4) Performance data must support the shelf-life of the device by demonstrating continued sterility, package integrity, and device functionality over the specified shelf-life.
(5) Clinical performance testing of the device must demonstrate the device performs as intended for use in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke and must capture any adverse events associated with the device and procedure.
(6) The labeling must include:
(i) Information on the specific patient population for which the device is intended for use in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, including but not limited to, specifying time from symptom onset, vessels or location of the neurovasculature that can be accessed for treatment, and limitations on core infarct size.
(ii) Detailed instructions on proper device preparation and use for thrombus retrieval from the neurovasculature.

Dear Jennifer Correa:
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.
