No
The description focuses on the mechanical and sensor components of the catheter and the computerized control system, without mentioning any AI or ML algorithms for data analysis, decision-making, or control. The performance studies are bench tests comparing the device to predicates, not studies evaluating AI/ML performance.
Yes
The device is described as an Intra-Aortic Balloon Catheter, which is placed in the aorta to improve cardiovascular functioning for conditions such as Acute Coronary Syndrome and Heart Failure, directly indicating a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is an intra-aortic balloon catheter, which is a therapeutic device used to assist the heart's pumping function. While it has a pressure sensor, its primary function is not to diagnose conditions but to provide mechanical circulatory support.
No
The device description clearly details physical components like an inflatable balloon, lumens, catheter shaft, and a fiber optic pressure sensor, indicating it is a hardware device. While it mentions a computerized control system (IABP), the core device being described is the physical catheter.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes a device used in vivo (within the body) to improve cardiovascular functioning by assisting the heart's pumping action. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description details a catheter with an inflatable balloon placed in the aorta and a control system. This is consistent with a medical device used for direct patient treatment.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or performing tests to diagnose a condition based on these samples.
Therefore, the FiberOptix IAB Catheter is a therapeutic medical device, not an IVD.

§ 870.3535 Intra-aortic balloon and control system.
(a)
Identification. An intra-aortic balloon and control system is a prescription device that consists of an inflatable balloon, which is placed in the aorta to improve cardiovascular functioning during certain life-threatening emergencies, and a control system for regulating the inflation and deflation of the balloon. The control system, which monitors and is synchronized with the electrocardiogram, provides a means for setting the inflation and deflation of the balloon with the cardiac cycle.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) when the device is indicated for acute coronary syndrome, cardiac and non-cardiac surgery, or complications of heart failure. The special controls for this device are:(i) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must be conducted to validate electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety of the device;
(ii) Software verification, validation, and hazard analysis must be performed;
(iii) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible;
(iv) Sterility and shelf-life testing must demonstrate the sterility of patient-contacting components and the shelf life of these components;
(v) Non-clinical performance evaluation of the device must demonstrate mechanical integrity, durability, and reliability to support its intended purpose; and
(vi) Labeling must include a detailed summary of the device- and procedure-related complications pertinent to use of the device.
(2) Class III (premarket approval) when the device is indicated for septic shock and pulsatile flow generation.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of completion of product development protocol (PDP) is required. A PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required to be filed with the Food and Drug Administration on or before March 31, 2014, for any intra-aortic balloon and control system indicated for septic shock or pulsatile flow generation that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, on or before March 31, 2014, been found to be substantially equivalent to any intra-aortic balloon and control system indicated for septic shock or pulsatile flow generation that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other intra-aortic balloon and control system indicated for septic shock or pulsatile flow generation shall have an approved PMA or declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
