Intended Use
The MedComp® Duo-Coat Catheter is indicated for use in attaining short term vascular access for hemodialysis and apheresis. It may be inserted percutaneously and is ideally placed in the internal jugular vein of an adult patient. Alternate insertion sites are the subclavian or femoral vein.
Device Description
The MedComp® DUO-COAT Catheter Double Lumen combines the MEDCOMP Duo-Flow Catheter with a dual purpose surface coating. Bound heparin reduces thrombus formation on the catheter outer surface and at arterial and venous ports, in 4-hour invitro-studies'. The round catheter design and lubricious surface may aid in catheter insertion by reducing friction on the outer surface. The fixed circular tube within a tube allows for a 360 arterial uptake and provides consistent flows from 350 to 400 ml/min. The catheter lumen is fabricated from a soft, thermo-sensitive, polyurethane material that is rigid upon insertion, but which becomes soft upon reaching body temperature to reduce vessel trauma. The external lumen surface incorporates heparin to reduce the risk of thrombus. The catheter hub is molded from soft pliable polyurethane to increase patient comfort. The soft radiopaque tip reduces vessel trauma and aids in confirmation of tip placement. Extensions are color coded with a red luer and clamp for the arterial lumen and a blue luer and clamp for the venous lumen for easy identification.

The description focuses on the physical properties, materials, and mechanical performance of a catheter, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes
The device is indicated for use in hemodialysis and apheresis, which are medical treatments for kidney failure and blood component removal, respectively. These are therapeutic activities.

No.
The device is a catheter used for vascular access for hemodialysis and apheresis, which is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly details a physical catheter made of polyurethane with a surface coating, hubs, extensions, and a tip. It 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 is for "attaining short term vascular access for hemodialysis and apheresis." This is a procedure performed directly on the patient for therapeutic purposes (removing waste products from the blood or separating blood components).
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed for insertion into a blood vessel. It focuses on the physical properties of the catheter itself and its function in facilitating blood flow.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.

Therefore, the MedComp® Duo-Coat Catheter is a medical device used for a therapeutic procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Testing conducted on the uncoated catheter, similar to that conducted on the predicate device (including biocompatibility screens and mechanical integrity) confirmed that the presence of the lubricious heparin did not affect the safety of the catheter. Comparison of treated and untreated surfaces showed a marked reduction in drag on the surface after application of the lubricious heparin. Hemodynamic testing under strenuous simulation testing demonstrated that the surface modification reduced the risk of thrombosis.

DESCRIPTION of the DEVICE:

The MedComp® DUO-COAT Catheter Double Lumen combines the MEDCOMP Duo-Flow Catheter with a dual purpose surface coating. Bound heparin reduces thrombus formation on the catheter outer surface and at arterial and venous ports, in 4-hour invitro-studies'. The round catheter design and lubricious surface may aid in catheter insertion by reducing friction on the outer surface. The fixed circular tube within a tube allows for a 360 arterial uptake and provides consistent flows from 350 to 400 ml/min. The catheter lumen is fabricated from a soft, thermo-sensitive, polyurethane material that is rigid upon insertion, but which becomes soft upon reaching body temperature to reduce vessel trauma. The external lumen surface incorporates heparin to reduce the risk of thrombus. The catheter hub is molded from soft pliable polyurethane to increase patient comfort. The soft radiopaque tip reduces vessel trauma and aids in confirmation of tip placement. Extensions are color coded with a red luer and clamp for the arterial lumen and a blue luer and clamp for the venous lumen for easy identification.

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

The MedComp® Duo-Coat Catheter is indicated for use in attaining short term vascular access for hemodialysis and apheresis. It may be inserted percutaneously and is ideally placed in the internal jugular vein of an adult patient. Alternate insertion sites are the subclavian or femoral vein.

SAFETY and EFFECTIVENESS :

Testing conducted on the uncoated catheter, similar to that conducted on the predicate device (including biocompatibility screens and mechanical integrity) confirmed that the presence of the lubricious heparin did not affect the safety of the catheter. Comparison of treated and untreated surfaces showed a marked reduction in drag on the surface after application of the lubricious heparin.
