Intended Use

For use in the endovascular treatment of symptomatic infrainguinal lower extremity vascular disease where total obstructions can not be crossed with standard guide wires.

Device Description

Spectranetics' CLiRpath excimer laser atherectomy catheters, including CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ models, consist of a bundle of optical fibers, encased within medical grade tubing. The optical fibers conduct ultraviolet laser light (excimer laser light at 308 nm) from a source to the tip of the catheter. The catheter is inserted into a patient's vasculature along the length of a previously inserted guidewire, allowing the operator to deliver laser energy targeted to a lesion (blockage) in the vasculature. CLiRpath laser catheters are provided in models designed for both "over-the-wire" and "rapid exchange" interventional techniques. Laser energy impinged on a blockage photoablales, or debulks, the lesion material re-establishing blood flow within the vessel, and permitting placement of devices used in vascular interventions.

Spectranetics brand CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheters will add 80 Hz as a maximum repetition rate for pulsed laser energy to the peripheral atherectorny catheter models not already cleared for 80 Hz operation.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ Excimer Laser Catheter. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than presenting a study to prove performance against specific acceptance criteria in the context of AI/ML-based medical devices.

Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, ground truth, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training set details cannot be extracted from the provided text.

The document highlights:

  • Device Identification: CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ Excimer Laser Catheter, a peripheral atherectomy catheter.
  • Intended Use: For endovascular treatment of symptomatic infrainguinal lower extremity vascular disease where total obstructions cannot be crossed with standard guidewires.
  • Comparison to Predicate Devices: The core of the submission is to establish substantial equivalence to existing CLiRpath Turbo excimer laser catheters. The primary enhancement of the "Plus" version is an increased pulse repetition rate from 40 Hz to 80 Hz, leading to faster ablation speeds.
  • Testing Mentioned: Biocompatibility, sterilization, packaging, and bench testing were performed. These tests confirmed that the device meets Spectranetics' in-house requirements and ISO 10555-1 standards. However, specific acceptance criteria or performance metrics for these tests are not detailed.

In summary, this submission is not a clinical study report or a performance validation for an AI/ML device, but rather a regulatory filing asserting substantial equivalence based on material and functional similarities, with an enhanced operational parameter (80 Hz pulse rate).

IDENTIFICATION OF PREDICATE DEVICES

Spectranetics CLiRpath Turbo excimer laser catheters with continuous-on functionality, [510(k) K052296], serve as predicates to the line of CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheters with 80 Hz and continuous-on capability. The 2.5 mm CLiRpath Turbo excimer laser catheter and CLiRpath™ excimer laser catheters, cleared under 510(k)'s K043465 and K043465, respectively, likewise serves as a predicate devices.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Spectranetics' CLiRpath excimer laser atherectomy catheters, including CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ models, consist of a bundle of optical fibers, encased within medical grade tubing. The optical fibers conduct ultraviolet laser light (excimer laser light at 308 nm) from a source to the tip of the catheter. The catheter is inserted into a patient's vasculature along the length of a previously inserted guidewire, allowing the operator to deliver laser energy targeted to a lesion (blockage) in the vasculature. CLiRpath laser catheters are provided in models designed for both "over-the-wire" and "rapid exchange" interventional techniques. Laser energy impinged on a blockage photoablales, or debulks, the lesion material re-establishing blood flow within the vessel, and permitting placement of devices used in vascular interventions.

Spectranetics brand CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheters will add 80 Hz as a maximum repetition rate for pulsed laser energy to the peripheral atherectorny catheter models not already cleared for 80 Hz operation.

INTENDED USE

For use in the endovascular treatment of symptomatic infrainguinal lower extremity vascular disease where total obstructions can not be crossed with standard quide wires.

COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICES

CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheters for peripheral use are substantially equivalent in form, fit, and function to Spectranelics CLiRpath Turbo excimer laser catheters, including the 2.5 mm Turbo catheter, which has received market clearance under section 510(k) rules. Prior peripheral atherectomy laser catheters with lip sizes ranging from 1.4 to 2.5 mm, delivered photoablating laser energy at up to 40 pulses per second (40 Hz). CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheters are enhanced versions of these catheters, providing the physician with faster ablation speeds due to a doubled pulse rate of 80 Hz.

CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheters are fiber optic catheters with a selection of working lengths between 110 cm and 150 cm. Tip diameters range from 1.4 mm to 2.5 mm. The catheters deliver excimer laser energy at 308 nm to an occlusion within a patient's targeted peripheral artery. Delivered energy photoablates occlusive material, such as arterial plaque, and permits its removal via the patient's reticuloendothelial system. The arterial channel opened by either the predicate device or the Turbo catheler, facilitates subsequent placement of other devices and interventions, and reestablishes blood flow within the diseased vessel.

BIOCOMPATIBILITY, STERILIZATION, PACKAGING, AND BENCH TESTING

CLiRpath Turbo Plus ™ excimer laser catheters are built from the same components and materials of construction as other, already-marketed, Spectranetics products, Therefore, biocompatibility of both component materials and the finished CLiRpath Turbo catheters have been previously confirmed in accord with the ISO 10993 series of standards. Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices. Spectranetics conducts and maintains valid ethylene oxide sterilization processes in accord with ISO 11135, Medical Devices -Validation and Routine Control of Ethylene Oxide Sterilization. Package integrity is initially validated, and, in addition, visually verified for 100% of Spectranetics devices prior to transfer to finished goods inventory.

Device integrity and functionality were qualified and/or validated using samples produced under routine manufacturing conditions. All CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheter models meet or exceed both Spectranetics in-house requirements, and requirements listed in ISO 10555-1, Sterile, Single-use Intravascular Catheters – Part 1: General Requirements.

CONCLUSION

The above statements establish substantial equivalence between the CLiRpath Turbo predicate devices, including 2.5 mm Turbo model, and the CLiRpath Turbo Plus™ excimer laser catheters.
