Intended Use

The Titan Micro Catheter is intended for the controlled selective infusion of physician-specified therapeutic agents or contrast media into the vasculature of the peripheral and neuro anatomy.

The MTI HD Injector is intended for the infusion of physician-specified fluids with the MTI Titan™ Micro Catheter.

Device Description

The MTI Titan™ Micro Catheter is an end-hole, single-lumen catheter designed to be introduced over a steerable guidewire into the vasculature. The catheter has a semi-rigid proximal shaft which transitions into the flexible distal shaft to facilitate the advancement of the catheter in the anatomy. Dual radiopaque markers at the distal end facilitate fluoroscopic visualization. The outer surface of the catheter is coated to increase lubricity. The catheter is provided with a removable adapter for attachment to either standard luer fitting devices or the MTI HD Injector.
The HD Injector is a 1 mL syringe with threaded plunger and a vial septum-piercing needle. The connector at the distal end of the injector is threaded for connecting to the MTI Titan™ Micro Catheter.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for the MTI Titan™ Micro Catheter and MTI HD Injector, focusing on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through in-vitro performance testing and biocompatibility verification.

Based on the provided information, here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study details:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The submission describes in-vitro performance testing for both the micro catheter and the injector. While specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., "burst pressure must exceed X psi") are not explicitly stated in the provided text, the text implies that the tests were conducted to demonstrate acceptable performance for intended use and substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The reported device performance is that the devices met these unstated criteria.
