Intended Use

The Edwards Lifesciences LifeStent Valeo Biliary Stent Systems are indicated for use in the palliation of malignant strictures (neoplasms) in the biliary tree.

Device Story

LifeStent Valeo is a balloon-expandable biliary stent system; used to maintain patency of bile ducts obstructed by tumors. Device consists of laser-cut stainless steel stent mounted on an over-the-wire PTA balloon catheter. Physician inserts system percutaneously to diseased site; expands stent via balloon inflation. Stent remains permanently implanted. Used in clinical settings for palliative care. Output is mechanical support of biliary duct; enables bile flow; relieves obstruction symptoms. Safety/effectiveness for vascular use not established.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included deployment, dimensional, balloon performance, stent deformation, and tensile testing on delivery system joints. Results demonstrated performance substantially equivalent to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Balloon-expandable stent; laser-cut stainless steel; over-the-wire PTA balloon delivery catheter. Available in lengths 17-36mm and diameters 6-10mm. Permanent implant. Sterilization method not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for palliation of malignant biliary strictures (neoplasms) in the biliary tree.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A biliary catheter and accessories is a tubular flexible device used for temporary or prolonged drainage of the biliary tract, for splinting of the bile duct during healing, or for preventing stricture of the bile duct. This generic type of device may include a bile collecting bag that is attached to the biliary catheter by a connector and fastened to the patient with a strap.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a bile collecting bag or a surgical biliary catheter that does not include a balloon component, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Device Description: The LifeStent Valeo consists of a balloon expandable stent that is provided on an over the-wire catheter that acts as a delivery system. The stent is a permanently implanted device used to maintain patency of a major bile duct obstructed by tissue of an impinging tumor. The flexible. balloon expandable stent is made by laser cutting an open lattice design into a stainless steel tube. The stent is supplied mounted onto a PTA balloon catheter, inserted percutaneously to the diseased site and expanded by balloon inflation. The subject device is supplied in lengths of 17/18mm, 26mm, 36 mm and diameters of 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm and 10mm. # 9. Intended Use: The LifeStent Biliary Stent Systems are indicated for use in the palliation of malignant strictures (neoplasms) in the biliary tree. # 10. Technological Characteristics: Comparisons of the subject and predicate devices show that the technical characteristics such as materials, performance properties, biocompatibility, method of sterilization, and packaging are identical or substantially equivalent. ### 11. Performance Data: Edwards Lifesciences completed bench testing such as deployment testing, dimensional testing, balloon performance testing, stent deformation testing as well as tensile testing on applicable joints of the delivery system. The results indicate that the system performed in a manner substantially equivalent to the predicate devices cited in item 7 above. # 12. Conclusion: Since the LifeStent Valeo has the same intended use, similar materials, similar performance properties, packaging and sterilization methods, it may be considered substantially equivalent to the predicate device cited in item 7 above. {2}------------------------------------------------ # DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
