Intended Use
The iTind System is intended for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men age 50 and above.
Device Description
The iTind System is a prescription temporary implantable transprostatic tissue retractor system and consists of the iTind System and a Retrieval Kit. The iTind System consists of an implant and a delivery system. The iTind implant is pre-mounted on a dedicated guide wire. The iTind implant is made of nitinol super elastic shape memory alloy (SMA), and biocompatible material widely used in the manufacture of medical devices. When in its folded configuration, the device is inserted through a sheath and deployed within the bladder neck and prostatic urethra where it assumes its expanded configuration at a maximum diameter of 33 mm and a length of 50 mm. When in expanded configuration, the struts of the iTind implant exert radial force outwardly on the bladder neck and prostatic urethra to push obstructive tissue away from the urinary path. The implant is designed to cover the entire length of the prostatic urethra, from the bladder neck to a point proximal to the external urinary sphincter. The iTind implant is left in position for 5–7 days. The device is subsequently removed using a sheath. The deployment and removal of the iTind implant should follow the Instructions For Use supplied by Medi-Tate and should only be attempted after the operator has been appropriately trained. The device is compatible with commercially available cystoscopes at least 19Fr in diameter.

No
The device description focuses on the mechanical properties and function of a temporary implantable device made of nitinol. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes

The device is intended for the "treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)" and works by exerting "radial force outwardly on the bladder neck and prostatic urethra to push obstructive tissue away from the urinary path," which are therapeutic actions.

No.
The device is described as a temporary implantable transprostatic tissue retractor system intended for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction, not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description clearly states that the iTind System consists of a physical implant made of nitinol and a delivery system, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of symptoms due to BPH by physically retracting tissue. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a temporary implantable system that exerts physical force on tissue. This is a medical device used for treatment, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample to provide diagnostic information.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. The iTind System does not fit this description.

Conclusions

The subject iTind is as safe and effective as the predicate iTind. The subject iTind has the same intended use, indications, and principles of operation and similar technological characteristics as its predicate device. The minor technological differences between the iTind and its predicate devices raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that the iTind is as safe and effective as the predicate iTind. Thus, the subject device is substantially equivalent.
