Intended Use
The Aspire MAX 7 - 11F Mechanical Thrombectomy System and Aspirator is indicated for the removal of fresh soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the peripheral vasculature.
Device Description
The Subject Device includes (1) Aspire Aspirator and (1) MAX 7F - 11F Catheter. Subject Device and the Predicate are single-use, sterile, and short-term use medical devices designed to remove fresh soft emboli, debris, and thrombi from the peripheral vasculature. The Subject Device's Intended Use and Fundamental Scientific Principle are the same as the Predicate. The Predicate and Subject Device are the same in the way they are inserted into the body over a guidewire and advanced to the target arterial or venous peripheral vascular anatomy. The Subject Device and Predicate share the same core Aspirator to create thrombectomy force. MAX 7 - 11F Catheters may be connected to basic syringes and other aspiration pumps. Aspire Mechanical Aspirators may be connected to other catheters. The Subject Device does not add any new materials or manufacturing processes to the manufacturing process.
More Information

No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on mechanical aspiration and catheter technology, with no mention of AI/ML components or functions.

Yes
The device is indicated for the removal of fresh soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the peripheral vasculature, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No
The device is described as a "Mechanical Thrombectomy System and Aspirator" indicated for the "removal of fresh soft emboli and thrombi," which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes a physical aspirator and catheter, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states the device is a "Mechanical Thrombectomy System and Aspirator" intended for the "removal of fresh soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the peripheral vasculature." This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples, reagents, or diagnostic results.

Therefore, the Aspire MAX 7 - 11F Mechanical Thrombectomy System and Aspirator is a therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Fojtik:

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

1

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 https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
