No
The document describes a mechanical device (a balloon catheter) and its intended use for physical dilation. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would suggest the use of AI/ML. The performance studies focus on physical characteristics and mechanical performance.
Yes
The device is used to dilate the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft and for the postdelivery expansion of balloon expandable stents, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is a PTCA Dilatation Catheter, used for therapeutic interventions (widening artery blockages, dilating stents) rather than for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical catheter with a balloon, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used for a therapeutic procedure (dilating coronary arteries and stents) performed in vivo (within the body). IVDs are used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The device description details a catheter with a balloon, designed for insertion into the body. This is consistent with an interventional medical device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any other components typically associated with IVD testing.
Therefore, the Emerge Over-The-Wire and Emerge Monorail PTCA Dilatation Catheters are therapeutic medical devices, not IVDs.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Emerge Over-The-Wire and Emerge Monorail PTCA Dilatation Catheters (1.20 mm balloon models) are indicated as pre-dilatation catheters in the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis (≥70% stenosis).

§ 870.5100 Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) Catheter.
(a)
Standard PTCA Catheter —(1)Identification. A PTCA catheter is a device that operates on the principle of hydraulic pressurization applied through an inflatable balloon attached to the distal end. A PTCA balloon catheter has a single or double lumen shaft. The catheter features a balloon of appropriate compliance for the clinical application, constructed from a polymer. The balloon is designed to uniformly expand to a specified diameter and length at a specific pressure as labeled, with well characterized rates of inflation and deflation and a defined burst pressure. The device generally features a type of radiographic marker to facilitate fluoroscopic visualization of the balloon during use. A PTCA catheter is intended for balloon dilatation of a hemodynamically significant coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A PTCA catheter may also be intended for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction; treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and/or post-deployment stent expansion.(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Certain Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) Catheters.” See § 870.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(b)
Cutting/scoring PTCA Catheter —(1)Identification. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter with cutting/scoring elements attached, which is used in those circumstances where a high pressure balloon resistant lesion is encountered. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is intended for the treatment of hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter may also be indicated for use in complex type C lesions or for the treatment of in-stent restenosis.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval). As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 870.3.
