Intended Use
The Bard® Quantum™ CVR is designed to function in an extracorporeal circuit. The filtered cardiotomy/reservoir receives dynamic blood from: (1) venous return (2) intracardiac suction (3) ventricular vent devices (4) arterial-venous shunts. It defoams, filters and stores this blood before returning it to the circuit.
Device Story
The Bard® Quantum™ CVR is a cardiotomy and venous reservoir used in extracorporeal circuits during cardiopulmonary bypass. It receives blood from venous return, intracardiac suction, ventricular vents, and arterial-venous shunts. The device functions by defoaming, filtering, and storing this blood before returning it to the bypass circuit. It is intended for intraoperative use by perfusionists or surgeons in a clinical setting. The device benefits patients by managing blood volume and ensuring blood quality (defiltration/defoaming) during bypass procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance and integrity characteristics were compared against predicate devices (Cobe HVRF and Bard H-3700). Testing evaluated cell damage, defoaming ability, and filtration efficiency. Biocompatibility testing was conducted in accordance with ISO 10993 standards.
Technological Characteristics
Cardiotomy and venous reservoir with integral defoamer and filter. Materials are consistent with predicate devices. Biocompatibility compliant with ISO 10993.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in extracorporeal systems during cardiopulmonary bypass to receive, defoam, filter, and store blood from venous return, intracardiac suction, ventricular vents, and arterial-venous shunts.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cardiopulmonary bypass defoamer is a device used in conjunction with an oxygenator during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery to remove gas bubbles from the blood.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Guidance for Extracorporeal Blood Circuit Defoamer 510(k) Submissions.”

# E. Technological Characteristics Summary
The "510(k) Substantial Equivalence Decision-Making Process (Detailed)" decision tree (FDA 92-415, Premarket Notification 510(k): Regulatory Requirements for Medical Devices, Page 51) was utilized to make a determination of substantial equivalence as follows:
1. Does New Device Have Same Indication Statements?
Yes. The Bard® Quantum™ CVR (Bard H6770VR) has the same indications as the Cobe HVRF although the Bard H6770VR includes additional detail. The Bard H-3700 and the Bard H6770VR have the same indications for use intraoperatively; however the Bard H6770VR will not be indicated for post-operative use as the Bard H-3700 is. Although the wording in the Indications for Use for all of these devices is not identical, all of these devices are indicated for use in extracorporeal systems during cardiopulmonary bypass.
2. Does New Device Have Same Technological Characteristics, e.g., Design, Materials, etc.?
Yes. The Bard H6770VR has the same technological characteristics and the same materials as at least one of the predicate devices or the difference is insignificant.
3. Are the Descriptive Characteristics Precise Enough to Ensure Equivalence?
No. Although the materials and technological characteristics are the same, bench testing is necessary to ensure equivalence because of (1) differences between vendors and manufacturing techniques and (2) the fact that neither of the predicate devices individually include all the same materials and technological characteristics as those of the proposed device.
4. Are Performance Data Available to Assess Equivalence?
Yes. The Bard H6770VR, the Cobe HVRF, and the Bard H-3700 were compared for performance and integrity characteristics. In addition, the Bard H6770VR was subjected to biocompatibility testing.
{2}
# 5. Performance Data Demonstrate Equivalence?
Yes. The proposed device was found to be equivalent to or better than the predicated devices or differences were clinically insignificant in terms of cell damage, defoaming ability, and filtration efficiency.
The Bard H6770VR passed all tests of biocompatibility required by the International Standard ISO 10993.
## SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT DETERMINATION:
The Bard H6770VR is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices, the Cobe HVRF and the Bard H-3700.
