No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms or data processing for decision support or image analysis.
Yes
The Penumbra System, including components like the Reperfusion Catheters, Separators, and 3D Revascularization Device, is indicated for revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusion, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at restoring blood flow and treating a medical condition.
No
The Penumbra System is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using continuous aspiration, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including catheters, pumps, tubing, and separators, which are physical medical devices used in a procedure.
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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Penumbra System is a medical device designed for the mechanical removal of thrombus (blood clots) from blood vessels in patients experiencing acute ischemic stroke. It is an interventional device used directly within the patient's body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a therapeutic procedure to revascularize patients by removing blockages in their arteries. This is a treatment, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.
- Device Description: The description details catheters, pumps, and tubing used to physically interact with and remove the thrombus from the vasculature. This aligns with an interventional therapeutic device.
Therefore, the Penumbra System falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Penumbra Reperfusion Catheters and Separators
As part of the Penumbra System, the Reperfusion Catheters and Separators are indicated for use in the revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (within the internal carotid, middle cerebral - M1 and M2 segments, basilar, and vertebral arteries) within 8 hours of symptom onset. Patients who are ineligible for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV t-PA therapy are candidates for treatment.
Penumbra 3D Revascularization Device
As part of the Penumbra System, the Penumbra 3D Revascularization Device is indicated for use in the revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (within the internal carotid, middle cerebral - M1 and M2 segments) within 8 hours of symptom onset. Patients who are ineligible for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV t-PA) or who fail IV t-PA therapy are candidates for treatment.
Penumbra Aspiration Tubing
As part of the Penumbra System, the Penumbra Sterile Aspiration Tubing is indicated to connect the Penumbra Reperfusion Catheters to the Penumbra Aspiration Pump.

Device Description
The Penumbra System® is comprised of the following devices:
- . Penumbra Reperfusion Catheter
- Penumbra Aspiration Pump .
- Penumbra Aspiration Pump/Canister Tubing .
- Penumbra Aspiration Tubing ●
- . Penumbra Separator
- Penumbra 3D Revascularization Device .
The Penumbra System is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using continuous aspiration. The Reperfusion Catheter targets aspiration from the pump directly to the thrombus. The 3D Revascularization Device is used with Reperfusion Catheters to facilitate aspiration and removal of the thrombus when needed. The Separator may be used to clear the lumen of the Reperfusion Catheter should it become blocked with thrombus. The use of the Separator may not be necessary when using a Reperfusion Catheter with an ID of 0.054 in. or larger. The Reperfusion Catheter is introduced through a guide catheter or long femoral sheath and into the intracranial vasculature and guided over a neurovascular guidewire to the site of the primary occlusion. The Penumbra Reperfusion Catheter is used with the Aspiration Pump to aspirate thrombus from an occluded vessel. As needed, a Penumbra Separator may be deployed from the Reperfusion Catheter to assist with thrombus removal. The Penumbra Separator is advanced and retracted through the Penumbra Reperfusion Catheter at the proximal margin of the primary occlusion to facilitate clearing of the thrombus from the Reperfusion Catheter tip. For the aspiration source, the Penumbra Reperfusion Catheter is used in conjunction with the Aspiration Pump, which is connected using the Penumbra Aspiration Tubing and the Penumbra Pump/Canister Tubing. The Penumbra Reperfusion Catheter is provided with a steam shaping mandrel and rotating hemostasis valve, and a peelable sheath. The Penumbra 3D Revascularization Device is provided with an introducer sheath. The Penumbra Separator is provided with an introducer and torque device. The Penumbra Reperfusion Catheters, 3D Revascularization Device and Separators are visible under fluoroscopy.
