Intended Use
The Bipore PTA catheters are indicated for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of the illac, femoral, and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of autologous or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. The Birgore, Inc. PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is also indicated for post-deployed stent expansion. Use of the Signe Dilatation Catheter for post-deployment sten expansion was demonstrated on the bench with the Cordi's Palmaz™ stent *. All sterts must be implanted and deployed according to the stent manufacturer's indications, contraindications, and instructions for use.
Device Description
The Bipore Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a double lumen balloon catheter for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in peripheral vessel. One lumen is for inflation and deflation of the balloon; the other lumen is used to pass the catheter over a guide wire to locate the balloon at the sire of stenosis. This submission adds two balloon sizes to the existing product line, as follows, and does not affect the safety or effectiveness of the device.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard balloon dilatation catheter and its intended use, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The performance studies are focused on physical properties and biocompatibility, not algorithmic performance.

Yes
The device is used for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and post-deployed stent expansion, which are medical treatments aimed at improving patient health.

No

The device is a balloon dilatation catheter used for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, which is a therapeutic intervention to treat obstructive lesions, not to diagnose them.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical balloon catheter with lumens for inflation and a guidewire, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a procedure performed within the body (percutaneous transluminal angioplasty) to treat blockages in blood vessels and dialysis fistulae. This is an in vivo procedure.
  • Device Description: The device is a balloon catheter designed to be inserted into blood vessels. This is a medical device used for treatment, not for testing samples outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. The device's function is mechanical (balloon inflation for dilation).

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The Bipore Balloon Dilatation Catheter is recommended for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of the iliac, femoral, and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of autologous or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae.

The Bipore PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is also indicated for post deployed stent expansion. Use of the Bipore Balloon Dilatation Catheter for post-deployed stent expansion was demonstrated on the bench within Cardis Palmaz™ stent. *

^Il stents must be implanted and deployed according to the stent manufacturer's indications, contraindications, and instructions for use.
