Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical retrieval device and explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found".

No
The explicit function of the device is for the retrieval of an implanted filter, not for treating a disease or condition itself. While removing the filter might be part of a larger therapeutic process, the device's direct action is mechanical retrieval.

No
The device description clearly states its purpose is for "retrieval of implanted Günther Tulip and Cook Celect Vena Cava Filters," which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components (retrieval loop system, sheath system, needle, wire guide, dilator) and describes physical testing (biocompatibility, dimensional verification, leakage, tensile) which are characteristic of a hardware medical device, not a software-only device.

No, 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 description clearly states that this device is a "Günther Tulip Vena Cava Filter Retrieval Set." Its intended use is to physically retrieve an implanted medical device (a vena cava filter) from within the patient's body.
  • No Sample Analysis: The device does not involve the analysis of any biological samples taken from the patient. It is a surgical tool used for a physical procedure.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a surgical or interventional medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

No performance standards have been established under section 514 performance standards, of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act for these devices. However, nonclinical tests identified to assess the impact of proposed material and additive changes were performed on the Günther Tulip Vena Cava Filter Retrieval Set to demonstrate that the device meets continues to meet critical design specifications. The Günther Tulip Vena Cava Filter Retrieval Set was subjected to applicable testing to assure reliable design and performance under the testing parameters. The following tests were conducted to ensure reliable design and performance:

  • Biocompatibility Testing Testing was performed in accordance with BS EN ISO . 10993-1:2009. The materials and methods used to manufacture the subject device are non-toxic and met the acceptance criteria for their intended use. Testing included: Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Irritation or intracutaneous reactivity, Acute systemic toxicity, Pyrogenicity, Hemocompatibility
  • Dimensional Verification Testing .
  • . Leakage Testing (Time Zero and 3-year Accelerated Aged)
  • Tensile Testing .

In conclusion, the results of these tests support a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

Dear Daniel Corbin:

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. 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, listing 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.

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
