Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical balloon catheter and its intended uses and performance testing, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is indicated for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, which is a therapeutic procedure to treat obstructive lesions. It also has a secondary function for the infusion of therapeutic agents.

No

Explanation: The device is a balloon catheter used for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and infusion of agents, which are therapeutic procedures, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Balloon catheter," which is a physical hardware device, not software. The performance studies also describe physical testing of the catheter.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a balloon catheter used for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and infusion of agents directly into blood vessels. This is an in vivo procedure, meaning it is performed within the living body.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing samples or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

The device is a therapeutic and interventional medical device, not a diagnostic one.
