More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical device for vascular access and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
The device is described as an introducer for catheters and electrodes, facilitating access to the vascular system, but it does not directly treat or diagnose a disease or condition.

No

The device is an introducer, designed to facilitate the insertion of other medical devices into a vessel, not to diagnose a condition. Its stated purpose is about access and minimizing blood loss for procedures, not identifying diseases or conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical introducer designed for vascular access, which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the introduction of catheters and electrodes into a vessel for procedures like angiography and pacing. This is a surgical/interventional procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.
  • Device Description: The device description reinforces its function as an introducer for accessing the vascular system during these procedures.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device's function is purely procedural for accessing the vascular system.
