Intended Use
The CliniCath™ IR Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter is used when patient therapy requires repeated venous access for intravenous injection or infusion therapy and/or venous blood sampling.
Device Description
The modified CliniCath™ IR Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters are similar in design and function to the current commercially available CliniCath™ Peripherally Inserted Venous Catheters. The catheters are designed to permit repeated access to the venous system for the delivery of medications, fluids, and nutritional solutions, and for blood therapy and/or sampling. The product consists of a single-lumen, radiopaque silicone catheter with preinserted catheter stiffening wire and attached flushing assembly. Catheters will be made available with and without the following accessories: introducer needle, guidewire, dilator/sheath assembly, syringe, tape measure, mini-scalpel and injection cap. Catheters will be provided in single- and multi-unit package configurations.

No
The summary describes a physical medical device (catheter) and its accessories, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any terms related to AI or ML.

No.
The device is described as a catheter for venous access and delivery/sampling, which is a diagnostic/delivery tool, not a therapeutic device in itself.

No

The device is a catheter designed for repeated venous access for infusions, injections, and blood sampling, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like a silicone catheter, stiffening wire, flushing assembly, and various accessories (needle, guidewire, etc.), indicating it is a hardware medical device.

Based on the provided information, the CliniCath™ IR Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for providing venous access for intravenous injection, infusion therapy, and blood sampling. This is a direct interaction with the patient's circulatory system for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes on the patient, not for testing samples outside the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed to be inserted into a vein. This is a medical device used for direct patient care.
  • 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.) for the purpose of providing information about a physiological state, health, disease, or congenital abnormality.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, such as blood glucose meters, pregnancy tests, or laboratory analyzers. The CliniCath™ is a device used to access the body for treatment and sample collection, not to analyze those samples.

§ 880.5970 Percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter.

(a)
Identification. A percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings, such as luer hubs, and accessories that facilitate the placement of the device. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for long-term use of 30 days or more, and it is intended for administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, composite materials, or any combination of these materials and may be of single or multiple lumen design.(b)
