AI/MLSaMDIVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)TherapeuticDiagnosticis PCCP Authorized
Intended Use
The Applied Medical EVS is a single-use sheath intended for percutaneous access to the perioheral vascular system. The EVS is designed to assist in the placement and removal of therapeutic instrumentation.
Device Description
The device consists of three major components: a sheath with deployable mesh funnel, an obturator with deployable mesh umbrella and a hemostasis valve with luer port.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical device for vascular access and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.

No.
The device is described as a 'sheath intended for percutaneous access' and designed to 'assist in the placement and removal of therapeutic instrumentation', meaning it facilitates the use of other therapeutic devices rather than being therapeutic itself.

No
The device is described as an access sheath for placing and removing therapeutic instrumentation, not for diagnosing conditions. Mechanical and safety tests were performed, but no diagnostic performance metrics are mentioned.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (sheath, obturator, hemostasis valve) and performance studies focus on mechanical, safety, and biocompatibility tests, indicating a hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "percutaneous access to the peripheral vascular system" and assisting in the "placement and removal of therapeutic instrumentation." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a procedural purpose, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The components (sheath, obturator, hemostasis valve) are consistent with a device used for vascular access and procedures, not for laboratory testing.
  • 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 tests.

Therefore, the Applied Medical EVS is a medical device used for a procedural intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

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

Mechanical, safety and biocompatibility tests were performed to verify functional safety, structural integrity and material safety. All testing demonstrated that the AMR EVS is comparable to the predicate device and introduces no new safety and effectiveness issues when used as indicated.

SUMMARY STATEMENT:

The Applied Medical EVS is a single-use sheath intended for percutaneous access to the perioheral vascular system. The EVS is designed to assist in the placement and removal of therapeutic instrumentation. The device consists of three major components: a sheath with deployable mesh funnel, an obturator with deployable mesh umbrella and a hemostasis valve with luer port.

Since the EVS is designed for percutaneous insertion, patient "cut down" is unnecessary. Percutaneous insertion may be accomplished with or without the use of a standard 9F vascular introducer sheath. The EVS may also be inserted into an exposed vessel.

The EVS is substantially equivalent to the Applied Medical "Catheter Introducer Sheath" covered by K890766. The hemostasis valve portion of this product was previously approved under K895214.

Mechanical, safety and biocompatibility tests were performed to verify functional safety, structural integrity and material safety. All testing demonstrated that the AMR EVS is comparable to the predicate device and introduces no new safety and effectiveness issues when used as indicated.
