Intended Use
The ITI IntraMAX™ Guide Catheter is intended for intravascular introduction of diagnostic, therapeutic and interventional devices into the extracranial vasculature.
Device Description
The ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheters are single lumen devices designed to aid the physician in the access of distal vasculature with the aid of a guidewire. The ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheters are a family of catheters currently manufactured in three French sizes (6, 7 and 8 FR), in lengths 65-110 cm and with multiple distal stem configurations ("style features"). The style features are offered with differing handling characteristics to allow flexibility in meeting physician preferences within the indication for use.

No
The document describes a physical guide catheter and its performance characteristics, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No
The device description states it is a guide catheter intended for intravascular introduction of diagnostic, therapeutic and interventional devices, meaning it is used to introduce other devices, not to perform therapy itself.

No
The device, a guide catheter, is intended for the introduction of diagnostic, therapeutic, and interventional devices, but it is not itself a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical catheter, a hardware device, and the performance studies focus on physical characteristics and biocompatibility.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "intravascular introduction of diagnostic, therapeutic and interventional devices into the extracranial vasculature." This describes a device used within the body to facilitate other procedures, not a device used to test samples outside the body to diagnose conditions.
  • Device Description: The description details a single-lumen catheter designed to aid in accessing vasculature. This aligns with an interventional or diagnostic tool used in vivo, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

Therefore, the ITI IntraMAX™ Guide Catheter is a medical device used for interventional and diagnostic procedures within the body, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

510(k) Summary

Product Name: ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheter Common Name: percutaneous catheter

Submitter's Name:

IntraTherapeutics, Inc. 651 Campus Drive St. Paul, MN 55112

Summary Preparation Date: September 1, 1998

This summary is provide in compliance with section 513(I)(3)(A) of the Act and summarizes the safety and effectiveness information contained in this premarket notification submission.

The ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheter is a Class II product classified as a percutaneous catheter (21 CFR $870.1250). Substantial equivalence is claimed to the Cordis Vista Brite Tip®, Mallinckrodt Trax Craven, and SciMed Cyber guide catheters.

The ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheters are single lumen devices designed to aid the physician in the access of distal vasculature with the aid of a guidewire. The ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheters are a family of catheters currently manufactured in three French sizes (6, 7 and 8 FR), in lengths 65-110 cm and with multiple distal stem configurations ("style features"). The style features are offered with differing handling characteristics to allow flexibility in meeting physician preferences within the indication for use.

The intended use is "for intravascular introduction of diagnostic, therapeutic and interventional devices into the extracranial vasculature ".

Technological characteristics were assessed through comparison bench tests and results demonstrated, at minimum, equivalence performance characteristics between the ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheter and predicate devices. Bench tests included tensile, introducer resistance, kink resistance, torque, body stock stiffness, stem shape recovery and back-up support. All appropriate biocompatibility tests for a guide catheter were successfully completed per ISO 10993-1. The guide catheter is provided sterile.

The composite results of these tests indicate the ITI IntraMAX™ guide catheter is safe for the intended use with a shelf life of two years.
