Device Story

The Radionics XDC Ventricular Catheter is a sterile, single-use device designed for neurosurgical applications. It consists of barium-impregnated silicone tubing featuring distal flow holes and a luer lock connector. The catheter serves as the proximal component in an external ventricular drainage system. It is inserted into the lateral ventricles of the brain by a physician to facilitate the drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or to monitor intracranial pressure. The device connects to an external drainage system, allowing for the management of CSF volume and pressure, which can help alleviate symptoms of hydrocephalus or manage elevated intracranial pressure in clinical settings.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Barium-impregnated silicone tubing. Design: Distal flow holes, luer lock connector. Sterilization: Provided sterile for single use.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage or intracranial pressure monitoring via the lateral ventricles of the brain.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations. {2}------------------------------------------------ ## Page 2 - Mr. Kevin J. O'Connell This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market. If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4595. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
