No
The document describes a mechanical aspiration system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is indicated for "removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the coronary and peripheral vasculature," which directly treats a medical condition.
No
The device is indicated for the "removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi," which describes a therapeutic or interventional function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including catheters, tubing, a pump, and a canister, which are integral to the system's function.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the removal of emboli and thrombi from vessels in the coronary and peripheral vasculature. This is a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The description details a system designed to physically remove material from blood vessels using aspiration. This is a mechanical process, not a diagnostic test performed on samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to treat a condition by removing blockages, not to diagnose or monitor a condition through sample analysis.

Device Description
The INDIGO Aspiration System is comprised of several devices:
- INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter .
- INDIGO Separator 4 ●
- . INDIGO Aspiration Tubing
- . INDIGO Pump Canister/Tubing
- . Penumbra Aspiration Pump
The INDIGO Aspiration System is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using continuous aspiration. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter is a dual lumen rapid exchange catheter that targets aspiration from the Pump directly to the thrombus, removing it via the INDIGO Aspiration Tubing and depositing it in the Pump Canister. The INDIGO Separator 4 may be used, if needed, to clear the lumen of the INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter should it become blocked with thrombus. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter is introduced through a guide catheter or long introducer sheath and into the coronary or peripheral vasculature and guided over a guidewire to the site of the primary occlusion. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter may be provided with a rotating hemostasis valve and a peelable sheath. The INDIGO Separator 4 is provided with an introducer and torque device. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter and INDIGO Separator 4 are visible under fluoroscopy.

Dear Sindokht (Sisi) Soltanzadeh:
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 and the limitations described below. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at
https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration. Ilsting of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
The OHT2: Office of Cardiovascular Devices has determined that there is a reasonable likelihood that this device will be used for an intended use not identified in the proposed labeling and that such use could cause harm. Therefore, in accordance with Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act, the following limitation must appear in the Precautions section of the device's labeling:
-
- The safety and effectiveness of this device for use in the treatment of ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) have not been established. Complications from the use of this device in this
1
manner could lead to death, permanent impairment, and/or the need for emergency medical intervention.
Please note that the above labeling limitations are required by Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act. Therefore, a new 510(k) is required before these limitations are modified in any way or removed from the device's labeling.
The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and permits your device to the market. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification if the limitation statement described above is added to your labeling.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
