No
The document describes a physical medical device (microcatheter) and its intended use and technical specifications. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, ML, or data sets, which are typically associated with AI/ML technologies in medical devices.

No.
The device facilitates the placement of guidewires and delivery of contrast media, which are diagnostic or interventional support functions, not direct therapeutic treatment.

No

The device is a microcatheter used for facilitating guidewire placement and contrast media delivery, which are interventional procedures, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter, a hardware component, and the performance studies focus on physical properties and biocompatibility, not software validation.

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 in vivo (within the body) for facilitating guidewire placement and contrast media delivery in the coronary and peripheral vasculatures. IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter designed for insertion into blood vessels. This is consistent with an in vivo medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with in vitro diagnostics.

Therefore, the Surmodics Microcatheter is an in vivo medical device, not an IVD.

No

The "Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) - All Relevant Information" section explicitly states: "FDA inadvertently indicated that the SE determination also included review and clearance of a predetermined change control plan (PCCP). However, your 510(k) submission did not include a PCCP, so FDA is providing this administrative correction." This clearly indicates that the device is NOT a PCCP authorized device.
