Intended Use

The LiquID Guide Catheter Extension is intended to be used in conjunction with guide catheters to access discrete regions of the coronary and/or peripheral vasculature, and to facilitate placement of interventional devices.

Device Description

The LiquID device is a guide catheter extension that is substantially equivalent to currently marketed devices with the distinction of having a larger intraluminal diameter. The device is available in two models: Liquid 061 and LiquID 071 which are designed to fit within 6F and 7F conventional guide catheters, respectively. The device has a 150 cm working length and a 0.018" diameter proximal stainless-steel shaft connected to a 15cm single lumen distal shaft (exchange length).

The LiquID device distal shaft includes an internal PTFE liner, a MP35N coil internally clad with a tantalum core for support and radiopacity, and an exterior nylon-based encapsulation layer. The rounded and atraumatic distal tip includes PTFE and Pebax that is monolithically attached (no joints) to the distal shaft. The distal shaft exterior is wiped with silicone fluid for lubricity.

The transition between the single lumen distal shaft and proximal shaft includes a stainless collar that is welded to the proximal shaft, positioned over the PTFE liner, and encapsulated in polymer. This construction provides a smooth transition and structural integrity.

The LiquID device has proximal positioning marks (laser created oxide marks) that are approximately 95cm and 105cm from the distal tip and has a colored proximal handle that follows the coronary guide catheter size color code. The proximal shaft is not coated.

The LiguID device is packaged in a HDPE hoop within a Tyvek poly sealed pouch. The pouch is contained in an SBS shelf box. Twenty-five (25) shelf boxes are contained within a shipping container. The shipping containers are used for transporting the devices between the manufacturer, the ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization contractor, and the distribution locations.

AI/ML Overview

The document provided is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device (guide catheter extension). It does not describe a study involving an AI algorithm or software. Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and studies proving the device meets those criteria, pertaining to AI-related aspects like sample size, ground truth, expert adjudication, or MRMC studies, cannot be extracted from this document.

Dear Chad Kugler:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for

Indication for Use:

The LiquID Guide Catheter Extension is intended to be used in conjunction with guide catheters to access discrete regions of the coronary and/or peripheral vasculature, and to facilitate placement of interventional devices.

Comparison to Predicate Devices:

The LiquID Guide Catheter Extension is substantially equivalent to the Vascular Solutions/Teleflex Guideliner V3 Catheters (K172090). In addition, the Boston Scientific Guidezilla II Guide Extension Catheter (K163314), Medtronic Telescope Guide Extension Catheter (K183353) and the OX Medical Boosting Catheter (K160561) are included as reference devices.

Guide catheter extensions are designed to facilitate the placement of interventional devices. They are placed within the interior lumen and advanced beyond the distal tip of conventional guide catheters. These devices allow physicians to achieve deeper vascular intubation providing enhanced placement and support for subsequent interventional device delivery.

The LiquID device and, the predicate device, and the reference devices include a PTFE lined single lumen distal shaft that is metal (coil or braid) supported with an exterior polymer encapsulation layer. The device distal shafts have an exterior coating for lubricity and include radiopaque features. The devices transition from the distal shaft to a push rod with designs that allow the introduction of interventional devices from the guide catheter and into the device distal shaft. The device transitions are also designed for strength. The devices are EO sterilized and are conventionally packaged (hoop, pouch, and box).
