Intended Use
The Detachable Silicone Balloon (DSB) is intended for artificial embolization of the internal carotid artery in the presence of certain intracranial aneurysms 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

Not Found

No
The description focuses on a physical device (silicone balloon) and its mechanical function for embolization. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is intended for artificial embolization of the internal carotid artery in patients with intracranial aneurysms, which is a medical intervention to treat a condition.

No
The device is described as an artificial embolization device, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one. Its purpose is to treat intracranial aneurysms by occluding arteries, not to identify or characterize a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical silicone balloon and catheter, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the artificial embolization of the internal carotid artery, which is a therapeutic procedure performed in vivo (within the body).
  • Device Description: The device is a physical object (a balloon) used to block a blood vessel in vivo.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used to perform tests in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples. This device is used in vivo for a therapeutic purpose.

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

Biocompatibility testing was performed and the results demonstrated the device to be safe for its intended use. Functional bench testing included cycle testing, rupture testing, pressure volume testing, detachment force testing, inflation-deflation cycle rate testing and catheter insertion valve testing. The results of these tests demonstrated the DSB to be safe for its intended use.

§ 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).
