Intended Use

This product is designed to direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the peripheral vasculature during diagnostic or interventional procedures. Do not use the guide wire in neurovascular.

Device Description

The CROSSLEAD Tracker is steerable quide wire with a maximum diameter of 0.014 inches (0.36mm) and available in 100cm, 200cm, 235cm and 300cm length. This Guide Wire consists of a hybrid Ni-Ti and stainless-steel core wire with a Pt-Ni inner coil and Pt-Ni and stainless-steel outer coil is soldered to the core wire with Ag-Sn solder. The coil has radiopacity to achieve visibility and can be made to bend easily with the vessel curve. A hydrophilic coating is applied to the distal portion of the guide wire. A hydrophobic coating is applied to proximal portion. The basic structure, construction, and material of the CROSSLEAD Tracker are similar to that previously described in the predicate Regalia XS 1.0 (K083146/K163426) and reference devices MINAMO (K190176), ASAHI Gaia Next(K192599) and ASAHI Gladius (K150445/K163426).

AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning)

No
The description focuses on the physical construction and materials of a steerable guide wire, and the performance studies are bench tests comparing it to predicate devices. There is no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities that would suggest AI/ML.

Therapeutic

No
The product is designed to direct a catheter, making it an accessory to a procedure rather than a device that directly provides therapy.

Diagnostic

No

The device is a steerable guide wire used to direct a catheter during diagnostic or interventional procedures, indicating it is an accessory tool rather than a diagnostic device itself. Its function is primarily mechanical guidance.

SaMD (Software as a Medical Device)

No

The device description clearly details a physical guide wire made of various materials and coatings, which is a hardware component, not software.

IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)

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

Here's why:

• Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the product is designed to "direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the peripheral vasculature during diagnostic or interventional procedures." This describes a device used within the body for procedural guidance, not a device used to test samples outside the body to diagnose conditions.
• Device Description: The description details a physical guide wire with specific materials and coatings, designed for navigation within blood vessels. This aligns with an invasive medical device, not an IVD.
• Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

Therefore, the CROSSLEAD Tracker is a medical device used for guiding catheters within the peripheral vasculature, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

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 (the 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.
