More Information

ClotTriever Thrombectomy System (K210190)

No
The description focuses on the mechanical components and function of the device for thrombus removal. There is no mention of AI/ML, image processing, or data-driven analysis.

Yes
The device is intended for the non-surgical removal of thrombi and emboli from blood vessels, which is a therapeutic intervention to treat a medical condition (e.g., deep vein thrombosis).

No

The device is described as a thrombectomy system intended for the non-surgical removal of thrombi and emboli from blood vessels, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. While it uses fluoroscopic visualization, this is for guidance during the procedure, not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a sheath, catheter, ports, and accessories, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the non-surgical removal of thrombi and emboli from blood vessels and injection, infusion, and/or aspiration of contrast media and other fluids into or from a blood vessel. This involves direct interaction with the patient's circulatory system for therapeutic and diagnostic imaging purposes, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The device is described as a system of catheters and sheaths designed for insertion into blood vessels to physically remove clots or deliver/remove fluids. This is consistent with an interventional medical device used in vivo.
  • Anatomical Site: The device is used in the peripheral vasculature, which is within the patient's body.
  • Input Imaging Modality: Fluoroscopic visualization is used to guide the device within the body.
  • Performance Studies: The non-clinical testing described focuses on the physical properties and functionality of the device itself (e.g., leak testing, tensile testing, in vivo functional testing), not on the performance of a diagnostic test on biological samples.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The ClotTriever Thrombectomy System operates directly within the patient's body for therapeutic and procedural purposes.

| Principles of operation | The ClotTriever Catheter is advanced into the vessel and
beyond the clot. The self-expanding braided nitinol wire net
is deployed. The expanded net cores, separates, and entraps
thrombus from the vessel as it is being drawn to the funnel
opening of the ClotTriever Sheath. The net is collapsed and
pulled into and through the ClotTriever Sheath with the
entrapped clot. A 60 cc syringe is provided for the aspiration
of clot in the sheath and the infusion of contrast media and
