Intended Use
The HI-TORQUE STEELCORE™ 18 Guide Wire is intended to facilitate the placement and exchange of diagnostic and therapeutic devices during intravascular procedures. It is not intended for use in the cerebral vasculature.
Device Story
Steerable guide wire; 0.018-inch diameter; 130 cm, 190 cm, and 300 cm lengths. Used by physicians during intravascular procedures to navigate and position diagnostic or therapeutic devices. Manual operation. Bench testing confirms performance equivalence to predicate wires regarding tip pull, turns-to-failure, rotational accuracy, and tip flexibility.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Tests included distal tip pull, turns-to-failure, rotational accuracy, and tip flexibility. Results met acceptance criteria and demonstrated equivalence to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
0.018-inch diameter steerable guide wire; available in 130 cm, 190 cm, and 300 cm lengths. Materials, biocompatibility, and performance properties are substantially equivalent to predicates. Sterilization and packaging identical to predicates.
Indications for Use
Indicated for facilitating placement and exchange of diagnostic and therapeutic devices during intravascular procedures. Contraindicated for use in cerebral vasculature.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A catheter guide wire is a coiled wire that is designed to fit inside a percutaneous catheter for the purpose of directing the catheter through a blood vessel.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a torque device that is manually operated, non-patient contacting, and intended to manipulate non-cerebral vascular guide wires, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.

2. Device Trade Name: HI-TORQUE STEELCORE™ 18 Guide Wire
> Device Common Name: Guide Wire
Device Classification Name: Catheter Guide Wire (74DQX)
- 3. Predicate Devices: ACS HI-TORQUE IRON MAN™ Guide Wire (K963702, approved January 22, 1997) Medi-tech Platinum Plus™ Guide Wire (K945379, approved June 5, 1995)
- 4. Device Description:
The HI-TORQUE STEELCORE™ 18 Guide Wire is a steerable guide wire with a nominal diameter of 0.018 inches and three lengths: a 130 cm, a 190 cm and a 300 cm exchange length.
- న్. Intended Use:
The HI-TORQUE STEELCORE™ 18 Guide Wire is intended to facilitate the placement and exchange of diagnostic and therapeutic devices during intravascular procedures. It is not intended for use in the cerebral vasculature.
{2}------------------------------------------------
- 6. Technological Characteristics:
Comparisons of the new and predicate devices show that technological characteristics such as materials, biocompatibility, performance properties (see below), sterilization, and packaging are identical or substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate devices.
- 7. Performance Data:
Bench testing was performed to demonstrate that the HI-TORQUE STEELCORE™ 18 Guide Wire met the acceptance criteria and performed similar to the predicate guide wires. The following tests were performed:
- . Distal Tip Pull Test
- Turns-to-Failure Test .
- Rotational Accuracy Test ●
- Tip Flexibility Test .
The results from the bench tests showed that the new HI-TORQUE STEELCORE™ 18 Guide Wire met acceptance criteria and performed in a manner equivalent to the predicate guide wires. No new safety or effectiveness issues were raised during the testing program.
- 8. Conclusions:
Since the new guide wire has the same intended use, similar design and technological characteristics, equivalent performance properties, identical sterilization and packaging, and no new safety or effectiveness issues, the HI-TORQUE STEELCORE™ 18 Guide Wire may be considered substantially equivalent to the predicates, ACS Hi-Torque IRON MAN™ and the Medi-tech Platinum Plus™ Guide Wires.
