The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a ureteral access sheath, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No
The device facilitates surgical procedures by providing a conduit for instruments; it does not directly treat a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a "Ureteral Access Sheath" used for establishing a continuous conduit to facilitate the passage of endoscopes and instruments during urological procedures. Its function is to aid in surgical access and not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a reinforced tube/sheath, introducer/dilator, connector, and clip, and the performance studies include mechanical testing and biocompatibility, indicating it is a physical medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "establish a continuous conduit during urological endoscopic procedures facilitating the in and out passage of endoscopes and other instruments into the urinary tract." This describes a surgical/interventional device used within the body to facilitate a procedure.
- Device Description: The description details a physical sheath and introducer designed for insertion into the urinary tract. It focuses on mechanical properties, coatings, and connectors for facilitating the passage of other instruments.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information about a patient's health.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies listed (Biocompatibility, Mechanical Testing, Sterilization, Packaging) are typical for a medical device intended for insertion into the body, not for an IVD which would focus on analytical performance, accuracy, precision, etc.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a tool used during a medical procedure, not for analyzing samples.

Device Description
The ReTrace Ureteral Access Sheath is a sterile, single use device that is inserted over a guidewire into the upper or lower urinary tract of patients requiring ureteroscopic procedure sin a hospital environment. The ReTrace Ureteral Access Sheath consists of:
- Reinforced tube/sheath ●
- Introducer/dilator ●
- Connector ●
- Clip ●
The reinforced polymeric introducer sheath includes a hydrophilic coating on the exterior and a lubricious inner surface. The sheath is reinforced to provide kink resistance. The distal tip of the sheath is fitted with a radiopaque ring. A white connector is fitted on the proximal end of the sheath and an orange connector is on the proximal end of the introducer to allow the two components to be attached. The dilator is fitted with a Luer connector on the proximal end and has a hydrophilic coating on the distal end. A guidewire entry and exit eye and exit holes for fluid delivery are located at the distal end of the introducer. The dilator protrudes out the distal end and allows for a gradual enlargement of the passage if needed and improves trackability along the guidewire. Once in the desired location, the dilator is removed to establish a hollow conduit for insertion of endoscopes and other instruments into and out of the urinary tract. The ReTrace Ureteral Access Sheaths are available in two diameters 10/12 Fr and 12/14 Fr. Lengths range between 28 and 55 cm. This submission is for modifications to device materials, labeling, packaging, and connector design.

Dear Jennifer Tvrdik:
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. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available 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.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device"

(https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30. Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90. Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review. the OS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
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 Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 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 Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rue"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-advicecomprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
