No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets typically associated with AI/ML devices.

No
The device is designed to extend guidewires for catheter exchange, which is a procedural aid rather than a direct therapeutic intervention.

No
The document describes a guidewire extension used to exchange catheters, which is a procedural function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "flexible stainless steel wire coated with DURAGLIDETM", indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to extend a guidewire to facilitate catheter exchange within the body. This is an invasive procedure, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical wire used for medical procedures, not a reagent, instrument, or system intended for the examination of specimens from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples like blood, urine, or tissue outside of the body to diagnose diseases or conditions. This device is clearly used inside the body during a medical procedure.

Performance standards have not been established by the FDA under section 514 of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.

V. Intended Use and Device Description

The Cordis CINCH® OR Steerable Guidewire Extension is designed to extend Cordis Steerable Guidewires so that a catheter can be exchanged for another catheter

The CINCH® QR Steerable Guidewire Extension is a flexible stainless steel wire coated with DURAGLIDETM . The extension is 145 cm long and has a shaft diameter of 0.014 inches.

VI. Biocompatibility

Biocompatibility testing was not repeated since the CINCH® QR and the currently marketed CINCH® 3 (K914863) Steerable Guidewire Extensions are made of the same materials. The DURAGLIDE™ coating and method of application have also been cleared for use with the WIZDOM™ Steerable Guidewire (K953760).
