The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and function of a guidewire, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
The device is a guidewire used to facilitate the placement of endoscopic accessories and for cannulation, which are diagnostic or procedural steps, not therapies themselves. It guides other devices that may be therapeutic, but it does not directly apply a therapy.
No
The device is described as a guidewire used to guide endoscopic accessories and for cannulation, which are interventional procedures, not diagnostic ones. Its "Intended Use" focuses on guiding other devices, not on providing diagnostic information.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components (core segments, jackets, coatings) and bench testing related to physical properties (stiffness, torque, radiopacity), indicating it is a hardware medical device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a guidewire used to guide endoscopic accessories into the GI tract and for cannulation of the pancreatobiliary ducts. This is a procedural device used within the body to facilitate other procedures, not to analyze samples taken from the body.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device interacting with or analyzing any biological specimens.
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for interventional procedures, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Summary of Similarities and Differences 6.2
The Bard ® Director™ Guidewire is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Microvasive® Geenen Endotorque™ Guidewire (#K942677/A), the Wilson-Cook® Tracer™ Wire Guide (#K910497), and the Davol® Laparoscopic Suction Irrigation Probe (#K941334).
The indication statements are different, however, the Director guidewire has the same intended use as the Geenen Endotorque guidewire and the Tracer wire guide. The Director guidewire is used to guide endoscopic accessories into the GI tract and for cannulation of the pancreatobiliary ducts. The general design and functionality of the Director guidewire is similar to these devices. All three of the guidewires are advanced through a duodenoscope (side viewing endoscope) under endoscopic and/or fluoroscopic visualization into the GI tract to the desired location. The major differences between the guidewires are:
The Director guidewire is constructed with three core segments that are bonded together. The proximal core is a Bisphenol A epoxy with fibers, covered with a polyethylene jacket, the mid section of the guidewire is a PTFE coated stainless steel, and the distal section is a nitinol tapered core covered with a polyester weave, polyurethane, and proprietary hydrophilic coating. Both the Geenen Endotorque guidewire and the Tracer wire guides have a single nitinol distal tapered core with a teflon jacket and a distal tip coating for lubricity.
Although the materials and construction are different: these materials are used in currently marketed devices. The Bisphenol A epoxy used in the proposed Director guidewire is the same material utilized with the Davol Laparoscopic Suction Irrigation Probe tip. The Davol Laparoscopic Suction Irrigation Probe is a nonconductive fiberglass probe intended for suction and irrigation of the operative site during electrosurgical laparoscopic procedures. PTFE and stainless steel are standard materials used in the manufacturing of guidewires. The jacket material covering the distal tapered nitinol core is different from the Geenen Endotorque and the Tracer wire guide, however, biocompatibility testing has confirmed the materials are safe for contacting mucosa and tissue.
The distal tapered core with the polyurethane coating provides a kink resistant, radiopaque, lubricious guidewire. Stiffness, torque, and radiopacity bench testing has confirmed the device is substantially equivalent to the Microvasive Geenen Endotorque™ guidewire and the Wilson-Cook Tracer™ wire guide.
