The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of the guidewires, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The device (guidewire) is used to introduce and position other interventional devices, not to provide therapy directly.
No
Explanation: The document states the guidewires are "intended for use in percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices." This describes an interventional or procedural tool, not a device used to identify, evaluate, or monitor a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly states the material of construction is stainless steel and PTFE coating, and describes physical characteristics like diameter and length, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the guidewires are for "percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the coronary and peripheral vasculature." This describes a device used within the body for a medical procedure, not a device used to test samples outside the body to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description details the physical characteristics and materials of a guidewire used in interventional procedures.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This guidewire does not fit that description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
These guidewires are intended for use in percutaneous procedures to introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the coronary and peripheral vasculature.

Device Description
The material of construction is stainless steel which is consistent with guidewires presently in commercial distribution. The wires are also manufactured using a PTFE coating. The wires are available straight, with "J" end, or moveable core. The wires range from .014" diameter through .065' diameter and lengths from 15cm. to 400cm.

Dear Mr. Catlin:
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 legally marketed predicate 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 provisions 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 (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with 895. the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) 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
