The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and mechanical performance of a catheter sheath and accessories, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No.
The device is an introducer sheath used to facilitate placement of other interventional devices, rather than directly treating a condition.
No
The device is designed to facilitate the intracardiac placement of interventional devices, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description explicitly details physical components like a disposable introducer sheath, vessel dilator, and guidewire, along with their construction and physical properties. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "facilitate the intracardiac placement of interventional devices." This describes a device used within the body for a procedural purpose, not for testing samples outside the body to diagnose conditions.
- Device Description: The description details physical components like sheaths, dilators, and guidewires, which are tools for accessing and navigating within the heart. This aligns with an interventional device, not a diagnostic test kit or instrument.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of an interventional medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
In vitro testing qualified the equivalence between the subject device and the predicate devices for the intracardiac deployment of devices and verified that no new safety or effectiveness issues. The type of testing is summarized below:
- Biocompatibility testing on manufactured sheaths and dilators;
- Sterilization validation of packaged units per ISO 11135 guidelines;
- Reliability testing such as shiping, and accelerated aging of packaged units:
- Tensile testing of the critical bond joints;
- Rotational testing on the sheath to luer bond;
- Leak, friction forces and insertions tests of the subject device in an in vitro setup;

Re : K992309 Intracardiac Introducing Sheath and Accessories Trade Name: Regulatory Class: II Product Code: DYB July 8, 1999 Dated: Received: July 9, 1999
Dear Ms. Pool:
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. However, you are responsible to determine that the medical devices you use as components in the kit have either been determined as substantially equivalent under the premarket notification process (Section 510(k) of the act), or were legally on the market prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments. Please note: If you purchase your device components in bulk (i.e., unfinished) and further process (e.g., sterilize) you must submit a new 510(k) before including these components in your kit. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, and 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 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 (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, FDA will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (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 531 through 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 the labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4586. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, " Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597, or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
