Intended Use
The DSB is intended for artificial embolization of symptomatic carotid cavernous fistulae in patients for whom, in the judgment of the neurosurgical management team, other medical or neurosurgical means would not be indicated.
Device Description
The DSB consists of a silicone balloon which is inflated with contrast agent and detached via catheter at the desired site of embolization.
More Information

No
The summary describes a physical medical device (a balloon) used for embolization and mentions only standard performance and biocompatibility testing, with no indication of software, image processing, or AI/ML components.

Yes
The device is used for "artificial embolization of symptomatic carotid cavernous fistulae," which is a treatment for a medical condition, making it a therapeutic device.

No
The device is used for artificial embolization, a treatment procedure, rather than for diagnosing a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of a silicone balloon and is a physical medical device used for embolization.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "artificial embolization of symptomatic carotid cavernous fistulae". This is a therapeutic procedure performed in vivo (within the body) to block blood flow.
  • Device Description: The device is a "silicone balloon which is inflated with contrast agent and detached via catheter at the desired site of embolization". This describes a medical device used for a therapeutic intervention, not for analyzing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or any diagnostic purpose. IVDs are used to diagnose diseases or conditions by examining these samples.

Therefore, this device is a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 882.5950 Neurovascular embolization device.

(a)
Identification. A neurovascular embolization device is an intravascular implant intended to permanently occlude blood flow to cerebral aneurysms and cerebral ateriovenous malformations. This does not include cyanoacrylates and other embolic agents, which act by polymerization or precipitation. Embolization devices used in other vascular applications are also not included in this classification, see § 870.3300.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls.) The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Vascular and Neurovascular Embolization Devices.” For availability of this guidance document, see § 882.1(e).
