No
The document does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like deep learning, neural networks, or algorithms that typically indicate the use of such technologies. The description focuses on standard IVUS, FFR, and DFR functionalities and automatic pullback, which are not inherently AI/ML features.
No.
The descriptions indicate that the device is for "diagnosis and treatment" and "provides hemodynamic information," and that its IVUS modality is for "ultrasound examinations." While it aids in procedures, it primarily provides diagnostic and guidance information rather than directly performing a therapeutic intervention.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that FFR and DFR are "indicated to provide hemodynamic information for use in the diagnosis and treatment of patients". It also mentions the IVUS modality is "intended for ultrasound examinations of intravascular pathology." These phrases clearly indicate the device's role in diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system "consists of hardware and software components." Additionally, the performance studies section mentions "software, hardware, packaging and electrical safety verification and validation," confirming the presence of hardware components.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a "non-patient contacting medical device system" that supports Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS), Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR), and Diastolic hyperemia-Free Ratio™ (DFR™) functionalities. These are all in vivo procedures, meaning they are performed within the living body.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes ultrasound examinations of intravascular pathology and providing hemodynamic information based on measurements taken directly from within the body. This is not based on analyzing specimens taken from the body.
Therefore, the AVVIGO Guidance System II, as described, is an in vivo medical device, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The IVUS modality of the System is intended for ultrasound examinations of intravascular pathology. Intravascular ultrasound is indicated in patients who are candidates for transluminal interventional procedures such as angioplasty and atherectomy. 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.

All Ultrasound Imaging Catheters will be referred to as Imaging Catheters throughout the remainder of this User Guide. The Imaging Catheters generate ultrasound images and are intended for ultrasound examination of vascular and cardiac pathology. Boston Scientific manufactures a wide variety of catheters for different applications. The recommended use of each of these catheters may vary depending on the size and type of the catheter. Please refer to the Imaging Catheter Instructions for Use, packaged with each catheter.
Indications for Auto Pullback Use (IVUS Only)
Automatic Pullback is indicated when the following occurs:
- The physician/operator wants to standardize the method in which intravascular ultrasound . images are obtained and documented: procedure-to-procedure, operator-to-operator.
- . The physician/operator wants to make linear distance determinations post-procedurally, which requires the imaging core of a catheter to be pulled back at a known uniform speed.
- . Two-dimensional, longitudinal reconstruction of the anatomy is desired.

Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The AVVIGO Guidance System II has the same fundamental design technology, functional modalities (IVUS and FFR/DFR), software functionality, power requirement, Windows 10 OS, DICOM, case archiving capability, and accessories, as the iLab Polaris Multi-Modality Guidance System (K210889) and AVVIGO Guidance System (K201713).
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 II. 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 quidance 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.

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, IVUS and FFR/DFR functional modalities, and performance features, the AVVIGO Guidance System II is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. 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.
