Intended Use

The PRO-PICC m C catheter is indicated for short term or long term peripheral access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy and power injection of contrast media. For blood sampling, infusion, or therapies, use a 4F or larger catheter. The maximum recommended infusion rate varies by catheter French size and is printed on the catheter.

Device Description

The PRO-PICC m C catheter is a triple lumen open-ended picc designed for power injection through one designated lumen. The catheter is an extension of the Medcomp® Pro-Line™ CT Power Injectable CVC (K053345) and Power Injectable Implantable Port (K070003) catheter line. The PRO-PICC m C catheter is comprised of a soft radiopaque polyurethane material. The lumen has a reverse taper design and is connected to the extensions via a soft pliable hub with suture wing for secure placement. Clamps are provided on the extension tubes to prevent air/fluid communication. Female luer connectors provide the connection for intravenous administration. The designated power injectable extension line and clamp material are purple in color to differentiate it from the non-power injectable extensions and the purple lumen identifies it as a power injectable catheter. The center extension also is printed with the words power injectable. The I.D. Ring within the clamp on the power extension contains information regarding checking for blood return and flushing along with rate of infusion for power injection. Injectable CVC. The PRO-PICC m ™ catheter is available in 6F triple lumen. The catheter has a usable length of 60 cm with depth markings in 5 cm increments. Stylet and adaptor sideport are provided to assist in catheter insertion. The catheter is packaged sterile in two radiology versions and two nursing configurations with the necessary accessories to facilitate catheter insertion.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size for Test Set: Not explicitly stated. The document mentions "in vitro testing was performed" without specifying the number of units tested.
  • Data Provenance: In vitro testing was performed. The country of origin for the testing is not specified, but the submitter is based in Harleysville, PA, USA. The testing is not retrospective or prospective in the clinical sense, as it was lab-based in vitro testing.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

  • No human experts were used to establish ground truth for this in vitro test set. The acceptance criteria are based on engineering standards (ISO 10555-1, 10555-3) and internal engineering protocols, which are objective, measurable performance parameters.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Not applicable. As the ground truth was established by objective engineering standards and measurements, no human adjudication was required.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

  • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. Clinical studies were explicitly not deemed necessary. The device's safety and effectiveness were demonstrated through in vitro testing and comparison to legally marketed predicate devices.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

  • Not applicable. This device is a physical medical catheter, not a software algorithm. Therefore, "standalone (algorithm only)" performance is not a relevant concept for this product.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Objective Engineering Standards and Measurements: The ground truth for the device's performance was established using objective measurements against established international engineering standards (ISO 10555-1, 10555-3) and internal engineering protocols. These standards define the acceptable range for physical and chemical properties (e.g., burst pressure, flow rate, leakage).
  • Biocompatibility Standard: For biocompatibility, the ground truth was meeting the requirements of ISO 10993.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not applicable. This refers to a physical medical device, not a machine learning algorithm. Therefore, there is no "training set." The design and materials are based on existing, cleared predicate devices and engineering principles.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • Not applicable. As there is no "training set" in the context of this device, this question is not relevant. The device's design is informed by established engineering principles and prior validated devices.

E. Intended Use:

'The PRO-PICC ™ C catheter is indicated for short term or long term peripheral access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy and power injection of contrast media. For blood sampling, infusion, or therapics, use a 4F or larger catheter. The maximum recommended infusion rate varies by catheter French size and is printed on the catheter.

મું. Performance Data:

In vitro testing was performed on the PRO-PICC m C catheter to assure reliable design and performance in accordance with ISO 10555-1 and 10555-3 and internal engineering protocol. Testing includes air/liquid leakage, force at break, elongation, gravity flow, static burst pressure, high pressure injection flow rate and chemical testing.

Clinical studies were not deemed necessary since in vitro testing was sufficient to demonstrate safety and effectivencss by way of comparison to legally marketed predicate devices.

All materials used for the proposed device were previously cleared in the Medcomp K053345 Pro-Line™ CT Pressure Injectable CVC. Biocompatibility testing on the Pro-Line™ CT Pressure Injectable CVC demonstrated that the materials used meets the requirements of ISO 10993 for a permanent external communicating blood contact device.

G. Comparison to Predicate Device:

The PRO-PICC m C catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of intended use, insertion method, anatomical location, design, materials, performance, labeling, packaging and method of sterilization.
