Intended Use
The Rotablator Rotational Atherectomy System with the Peripheral RotaLink Plus is intended to ablate occlusive material and restore luminal patency in the peripheral vasculature.
Device Story
Catheter-based atherectomy system for peripheral vasculature; utilizes high-speed, diamond-coated burr (up to 190,000 RPM) to ablate occlusive atherosclerotic material into fine particles for distal removal via reticuloendothelial system. System components: Peripheral RotaLink Plus catheter, Peripheral RotaWire guidewire with wireClip torquer, Rotablator console, and Dynaglide foot pedal; Rotaglide lubricant accessory. Used in clinical settings by physicians; restores luminal patency. Bench testing confirms performance and biocompatibility.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing and biocompatibility assessment. Bench tests included strain relief, burr cutting ability, operational speeds, tensile strength, stall torque, brake engagement, infusate flow/temperature, catheter advancement, lumen patency, and component compatibility. Guidewire testing included corrosion, torque transmission, radiodetectability, pushability, fracture, tip deflection, flexure, stiffness, and functional life.
Technological Characteristics
Rotational atherectomy system; diamond-coated burr; high-speed pneumatic/electric console; catheter-based delivery; includes guidewire and torquer. Materials include natural rubber latex. Sterilization method not specified. Standalone system; non-software controlled mechanical/pneumatic operation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for percutaneous use in peripheral vessels in patients with occlusive atherosclerotic disease who are acceptable candidates for endovascular procedures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intraluminal artery stripper is a device used to perform an endarterectomy (removal of plaque deposits from arterisclerotic arteries.)

| Device<br>Description | The Rotablator Rotational Atherectomy System with the Peripheral<br>RotaLink Plus is a catheter based angioplasty device that utilizes a high<br>speed, rotating, diamond-coated burr to ablate occlusive material and<br>restore luminal patency. The burr spins at up to 190,000 RPM and ablates<br>material into very fine particles that are carried distally and removed via the<br>reticuloendothelial system. There are three main components that<br>comprise the Rotablator Rotational Atherectomy: 1) the Peripheral<br>RotaLink Plus, 2) Peripheral RotaWire Guidewire with the wireClip Torquer,<br>and 3) Rotablator Console with Dynaglide foot pedal. Rotaglide, a lubricant<br>is also available as an accessory. | | |
