No
The summary describes a physical catheter device for sampling and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
The device is described as a "sampling tool" and designed to "obtain bronchoalveolar samples for laboratory testing and diagnosis." Its purpose is diagnostic, not therapeutic.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the device is used to obtain samples "for laboratory testing and diagnosis." This indicates its role in aiding the diagnostic process.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "radiopaque, double plugged, telescoping catheter," which is a physical hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the COMBICATH Catheter is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body. The COMBICATH Catheter is a device used in vivo (inside the body) to collect samples.
- The device description clearly states it's a catheter designed to capture samples from patients. It's a tool for sample collection, not for performing the diagnostic test itself.
- The intended use is to obtain samples for laboratory testing and diagnosis. This indicates that the diagnostic process happens after the sample is collected using the COMBICATH.
The COMBICATH Catheter is a medical device used for sample collection, which is a step that precedes in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 874.4680 Bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories is a tubular endoscopic device with any of a group of accessory devices which attach to the bronchoscope and is intended to examine or treat the larynx and tracheobronchial tree. It is typically used with a fiberoptic light source and carrier to provide illumination. The device is made of materials such as stainless steel or flexible plastic. This generic type of device includes the rigid ventilating bronchoscope, rigid nonventilating bronchoscope, nonrigid bronchoscope, laryngeal-bronchial telescope, flexible foreign body claw, bronchoscope tubing, flexible biopsy forceps, rigid biopsy curette, flexible biopsy brush, rigid biopsy forceps, flexible biopsy curette, and rigid bronchoscope aspirating tube, but excludes the fiberoptic light source and carrier.(b)

Dear Mr. McCormick:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21. Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613.
