No
The device description and the lack of any mention of AI, ML, image processing, or performance studies related to algorithmic analysis strongly suggest this is a traditional medical device without AI/ML components.

Yes.
The device is used for CSF drainage, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at relieving pressure or removing excess fluid, making it a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as a catheter for CSF drainage or monitoring, which implies a therapeutic or monitoring function, not a diagnostic one. It facilitates access to CSF but doesn't analyze or process information to make a diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical catheter made of silicone tubing with flow holes and a luer lock connector, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "CSF drainage or monitoring from the lateral ventricles of the brain." This is a procedure performed in vivo (within the living body) to manage or assess a physiological fluid.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter designed for insertion into the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVDs are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform such an analysis.

The device described is a medical device used for a surgical or clinical procedure, not for laboratory testing of specimens.

§ 882.5550 Central nervous system fluid shunt and components.

(a)
Identification. A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Dear Mr. O'Connell:

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 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 Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, 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 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.
