May 15, 2001 Date of Preparation:
Device Names:
Proprietary Name: CAPIOX® Arterial Filter with X-Coating Product Code: CX*AF02X Common Name: Arterial Line Blood Filter Classification Name: Cardiopulmonary Bypass Arterial Line Blood Filter
Predicate Device:
Terumo Cardiovascular Systems Corporation has identified the uncoated CAPIOX® Arterial Filter (for pediatric use), Product Code CX*AF02, as the predicate device for the determination of substantial equivalence. The predicate device is cleared with Premarket Notification K943917.
Intended Use:
The CAPIOX® Arterial Filter with X-Coating is a pediatric filter that is intended to filtrate non-biologic particles and emboli, and to facilitate air bubble removal from the blood flowing through a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit for up to 6 hours. The polymethoxyethylacrylate coating (PMEA) is intended to reduce the adhesion of platelets to the blood-contacting surfaces of the device.
Principles of Operation and Technology:
The CAPIOX® CX*AF02X performs its functions using two basic forms of technology. As a filtration device, non-biologic particulates in the blood stream are captured and removed from the blood flow as blood passes through the 32 um filter mesh material that is contained within the device housing. The 32 um filter mesh material establishes a physical barrier that entraps particulate matter.
{1}------------------------------------------------
As an air-removal device, the CAPIOX® CX*AF02X is designed so that air is removed from the blood stream as a result of centripetal force. The blood inlet port of the device is positioned on the side axis of the hardshell housing, thereby creating a spiral blood flow pattern as blood enters the device. Because the blood flows through the device in a spiral motion, centripetal forces cause the air bubbles to migrate towards the top of the housing assembly. The top of the housing assembly is conical-shaped, thereby facilitating air movement towards the air vent port that is located at the top of the assembly.
Design and Materials:
The design of the CAPIOX® CX*AF02X is such that the device meets its stated intended uses, and provides an acceptable level of performance and safety to the patient.
The device is a hardshell housing that contains a blood filter, and has both a blood inlet port and a blood outlet port. The blood inlet port is positioned along the side axis of the outer housing and provides the entry point for blood. The blood outlet port is positioned at the base of the device. The top surface of the device has a luered connection port (Air Vent Port) that will accommodate a stopcock assembly to facilitate the air removal process.
The hardshell housing contains a pleated screen filter assembly in which blood passes through for filtration of particulate matter. After the blood has been filtered, it then exits the device via the blood outlet port.
The materials of construction for the CAPIOX® CX*AF02X are the exact same materials that are used in the predicate uncoated CAPIOX® Arterial Filter - except for the addition of X-coating to the subject device. The differences in the materials do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness of the device.
