    Intended Use

    The Glidewire® GT is designed to direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the peripheral vasculature during diagnostic or interventional procedures. This device is not intended for neurovascular or coronary interventions.

    Device Description

    The Glidewire® GT is a guide wire which is designed to direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the peripheral vasculature during diagnostic or interventional procedures. It is provided sterile and is intended for single use only. The Glidewire® GT consists of a core wire of a Nickel Titanium superelastic alloy and has a flexible radiopaque gold coil around the distal tip of the core wire. The Glidewire® GT is offered with two distal tip types: Shapeable and Preshaped. The wire distal segment comes in angled or straight configurations. Physicians choose the guide wire types depending upon their personal preference and the type of interventional procedure being performed. Other considerations may include: anatomy, difficulty of access, and the interventional device used for procedure. The device is packaged in a plastic holder that is contained within an individual package. A guide wire inserter, torque device and mandrel (Shapeable type only) are contained within the individual package to assist with the manipulation of the guide wire. Following the guide wire insertion, the guide wire inserter is removed from the proximal portion of guide wire.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the Glidewire GT and describes non-clinical performance and biocompatibility testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It does not contain information about a study proving the device meets an acceptance criterion for an AI/ML device.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document describes several performance tests. It states that "All samples tested met the applicable acceptance criteria, and no new issues of safety and effectiveness were raised by the testing performed." However, it does not explicitly list the specific quantitative acceptance criteria alongside the reported performance for each test. Instead, it refers to ISO standards, FDA guidance documents, and in-house standards.
