Intended Use
This product is intended to be used to guide interventional devices for neurovascular therapy to a lesion or a procedural site for a percutaneous intravascular procedure in the neurovasculature. This product is also intended to be used for injection of contrast media. This product is intended for use only in the neurovasculature.
Device Description
The FUBUKI XF Neurovascular Long Sheath consists of a long sheath and a dilator. The long sheath is a single lumen neurovascular catheter designed for introduction of interventional devices, such as guidewires and other therapeutic devices. The long sheath consists of three sections: (1) a shaft, (2) a protector and (3) a connector. The distal portion of the shaft consists of a soft tip and a soft tube. The proximal part of the shaft is covered by the protector (strain relief) and the connector is bonded to the proximal end of the shaft. The FUBUKI XF Neurovascular Long Sheath is provided sterile, by ethylene oxide, and is intended for single use only by physicians who have been adequately trained in neurointerventional procedures. The outer surface of the long sheath is coated with a hydrophilic polymer to provide high lubricity when the surface is wet. The inner lumen of the shaft (excluding the connector portion) is lined with a fluoropolymer layer to facilitate movement of the quide wire and other devices. The dilator consists of two parts: (1) a shaft and (2) a connector. The FUBUKI XF Neurovascular Long Sheath is composed of a long sheath and a dilator packed in a sterile package. This sterile package is packed in an outer box with the Instructions for Use.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and functionality of a neurovascular long sheath and dilator, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is a long sheath for guiding other interventional or therapeutic devices, not a therapeutic device itself.

No

The device is described as a long sheath and dilator intended to guide interventional devices and inject contrast media, which are therapeutic and procedural functions, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical medical device consisting of a long sheath and a dilator, made of materials like hydrophilic polymer and fluoropolymer, and intended for physical insertion into the neurovasculature. It also details bench testing and biocompatibility testing, which are characteristic of hardware devices.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the product is used to "guide interventional devices for neurovascular therapy to a lesion or a procedural site for a percutaneous intravascular procedure in the neurovasculature" and for "injection of contrast media." These are procedures performed within the body (in vivo), not on samples taken from the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The description details a physical device (long sheath and dilator) designed for insertion into the neurovasculature.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is an interventional tool used directly in a medical procedure.

Dear Cynthia Valenzuela:

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.
