HI-TORQUE BALANCE MIDDLEWEIGHT™ Guide Wire
Not Found
No
The description focuses on the physical construction and materials of a guide wire, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The performance studies are bench tests of mechanical properties.
No
The device is a guide wire, which facilitates the placement of other therapeutic devices (like balloon dilatation catheters, atherectomy, and stent devices) and is not itself intended to treat a disease or condition.
No.
The device's intended use is to facilitate the placement of other medical devices (balloon dilatation catheters, atherectomy, and compatible stent devices) during therapeutic procedures (PTCA and PTA), not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly details a physical guide wire constructed from materials like wire and coated with PTFE and HYDROCOAT™. It also mentions physical characteristics like length, diameter, and a radiopaque distal tip coil. This is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to facilitate the placement of catheters and other equipment during percutaneous procedures (PTCA and PTA). This is a procedural device used in vivo (within the body) to aid in a medical intervention.
- Device Description: The description details the physical construction of a guide wire, including its materials, coating, and features like a radiopaque tip and markers. This is consistent with a medical device used for navigation and support within blood vessels.
- 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.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. IVDs are typically reagents, instruments, or systems used in vitro for these purposes.
In summary, the ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire is a medical device used during a medical procedure, not a device used to perform diagnostic tests on samples outside the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
To facilitate the placement of balloon dilatation catheters during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). The wire is also intended to facilitate the placement of equipment such as atherectomy and compatible stent devices during other diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

Device Description
The ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating is a guide with a 200 cm exchange length and lengths of 175 cm and 190 cm and 190 and lengths of 175 cm and 190 cm extendation of the are a soland tapered so that it has The proximal end of the 175 cm and 190 cm models and one Wire Extension. This enables the physician to extend the working length of this guide wire to exchanges.
The ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating is constructed from astable wire consists of an HYDROCOAT™ Hydropinne Coating is course in consists of the wire consists of an ewith a nominal oute with a nominal outer diameter of 0.017 . The wire is coated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and the distal, segment of the wire is coated with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating.
The distal tip coil has a radiopaque length of 4.5 cm. The distal end of the guide wire is available either as a straight tip that is shapeable, or as a pre-shaped "J". The 190 cm and 300 cm guide wires have markers located 90cm and 100 cm from the distal tip.

Summary of Performance Studies
Bench testing was performed to demonstrate that the ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating met the acceptance criteria and performed similar to the predicate HI-TORQUE BALANCE MIDDLEWEIGHT™ Guide Wire. The following tests were performed: Distal Tip Pull Test, Distal Tip Turns-to-Failure Test, Rotational Accuracy Test and Tip Flexibility Test.
The results from the bench tests showed that the new ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating met the acceptance criteria and performed in a manner equivalent the predicate ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE MIDDLEWEIGHT™ Guide Wire. No new safety or effectiveness issues were raised during the testing program.

polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and the distal, segment of the wire is coated with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating.
The distal tip coil has a radiopaque length of 4.5 cm. The distal end of the guide wire is available either as a straight tip that is shapeable, or as a pre-shaped "J". The 190 cm and 300 cm guide wires have markers located 90cm and 100 cm from the distal tip.
Intended Use:
To facilitate the placement of balloon dilatation catheters during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). The wire is also intended to facilitate the placement of equipment such as atherectomy and compatible stent devices during other diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
Technological Characteristics:
Comparisons of the new and predicate devices show that technological characteristics such as materials, biocompatibility, performance properties, sterilization, and packaging are identical or substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate devices. The design feature that distinguishes the new guide wires from that of the predicate wires is the tapered distal coil.
Performance Data:
Bench testing was performed to demonstrate that the ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating met the acceptance criteria and performed similar to the predicate HI-TORQUE BALANCE MIDDLEWEIGHT™ Guide Wire. The following tests were performed: Distal Tip Pull Test, Distal Tip Turns-to-Failure Test, Rotational Accuracy Test and Tip Flexibility Test.
The results from the bench tests showed that the new ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating met the acceptance criteria and performed in a manner equivalent the predicate ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE MIDDLEWEIGHT™ Guide Wire. No new safety or effectiveness issues were raised during the testing program.
Conclusions:
Since the new guide wires have the same intended use, technological characteristics, performance properties, identical sterilization and packaging, and no new safety or effectiveness issues, the ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE HEAVYWEIGHT™ Guide Wire with HYDROCOAT™ Hydrophilic Coating may be considered substantially equivalent to the predicate ACS HI-TORQUE BALANCE MIDDLEWEIGHT™ Ghide Wire.
