Intended Use
FFR and DFR™ are intended for use in catheterization and related cardiovascular specialty laboratories to compute, and display various physiological parameters based on the output from one or more electrodes, transducers, or measuring devices. FFR and DFR are indicated to provide hemodynamic information for use in the diagnosis and treatment of patients that undergo measurement of physiological parameters.
Device Description
The AVVIGO Guidance System is a medical device system that consists of a touchscreen tablet with battery, a digital pen, a power supply and cable which can be mounted to a mobile pole via the pole docking station or set on tabletop via the desktop docking station. The tablet is a nonsterile, non-implantable tablet computer controlled by a graphic user interface (GUI) displayed on a touchscreen. The tablet is powered by either AC line power or a lithium polymer battery. The system software displays patient's blood pressure measurements that are received from the coronary pressure guidewire and transducer that is connected to a FFR Link. The FFR Link digitizes and wirelessly streams the data which is displayed on the tablet.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a system for displaying physiological parameters based on direct measurements from sensors, without mentioning any AI/ML components for analysis or interpretation.

No
The device is described as providing hemodynamic information for diagnosis and treatment and displaying patient blood pressure measurements; it does not directly treat a condition or restore function.

Yes
The device is indicated to provide hemodynamic information for use in the diagnosis and treatment of patients.

No

The device description explicitly states the system consists of hardware components including a tablet, digital pen, power supply, and docking stations, in addition to the software.

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 Function: The description clearly states that the device "computes, and displays various physiological parameters based on the output from one or more electrodes, transducers, or measuring devices." It specifically mentions receiving blood pressure measurements from a coronary pressure guidewire and transducer. This indicates it's measuring physiological parameters in vivo (within the living body) during a procedure, not analyzing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Intended Use: The intended use is in "catheterization and related cardiovascular specialty laboratories to compute, and display various physiological parameters." This aligns with real-time monitoring during a medical procedure, not laboratory testing of samples.

Therefore, the AVVIGO Guidance System, as described, is a medical device used for physiological monitoring during cardiovascular procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Kevin Catalano:

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.

Device Description

The AVVIGO Guidance System is a medical device system that consists of a touchscreen tablet with battery, a digital pen, a power supply and cable which can be mounted to a mobile pole via the pole docking station or set on tabletop via the desktop docking station. The tablet is a nonsterile, non-implantable tablet computer controlled by a graphic user interface (GUI) displayed on a touchscreen. The tablet is powered by either AC line power or a lithium polymer battery.

The system software displays patient's blood pressure measurements that are received from the coronary pressure guidewire and transducer that is connected to a FFR Link. The FFR Link digitizes and wirelessly streams the data which is displayed on the tablet.

Non-clinical Performance

Determination of substantial equivalence is based on an assessment of non-clinical performance data which includes software, hardware, packaging and electrical safety verification and validation carried out on the AVVIGO Guidance System. Testing was conducted according to applicable international standards, FDA recognized consensus standards, and the same wellestablished test methods and criteria applied to the predicate device. The following standards and guidance are applicable in demonstration of substantial equivalence related to software:

  • . IEC 62304 Medical Device Software - Software Lifecycle Processes, (edition 1.1 2015-06) FDA recognition: 13-79.
  • FDA Guidance for Industry, Issued May 11, 2005, Guidance for the Content of Premarket ● Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices.

Clinical Performance Data

Not applicable. A determination of Substantial Equivalence for this modification is not based on clinical data. Substantial Equivalence is based on non-clinical performance data.

Conclusion

Based on a comparison of intended use, fundamental design technology, FFR/DFR modalities, including DFR Equalization and performance features, the AVVIGO Guidance System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. A comparison of the modified and predicate devices, along with verification and validation testing applicable to the modified device, supports a conclusion of substantial equivalence and raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness.
