Intended Use

Cross-Pilot™ Turbo Elite® Support Catheters are intended to guide and support Spectranetics laser catheters during access of the vasculature and provide a conduit for the delivery of saline solutions or diagnostic contrast agents.

Device Description

All models have 3 radiopaque markers spaced equally along the distal shaft to aid in estimating geometry within the vascular system. The most distal radiopaque marker is positioned within 3 mm of the distal catheter tip. A standard female luer is placed on the proximal end of each model. The catheter is coated with a lubricious, hydrophilic coating. Predicate devices of this type with similar intended uses have been classified into Class II. The support catheters are single-use and provided in sterile packaging.

IDENTIFICATION OF PREDICATE DEVICES

Spectranetics Cross-Pilot Turbo Elite Support Catheters are equivalent to the Terumo 5Fr Radifocus Optitorque Angiographic Catheter (K992051), marketed at the 5Fr Radifocus Glidecath, and the Asahi Angiographic Catheters (K051561), marketed as Cook Slip-Cath XL, with regard to materials, basic design principles, construction, specifications, intended use and performance. Both are examples of a support catheter for guide wires, a common and familiar tool of cardiovascular interventionist.

COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICES

Comparative laboratory testing was conducted to assess physical dimensions, infusion rates and burst pressure. Test results show that the Spectranetics Cross-Pilot Turbo Elite Support Catheters are equivalent to the predicate devices with regard to safety, effectiveness, indication and performance.

BIOCOMPATIBILITY, STERILIZATION, PACKAGING, AND BENCH TESTING

Cross-Pilot Turbo Elite Support Catheters are built from the same components and materials of construction as the predicate devices, already-marketed products. Biocompatibility of the finished Cross-Pilot Turbo Elite Support Catheters utilizing identical component materials have been confirmed in conformance with ISO 10993-1:2003, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices. Device integrity and functionality were qualified and/or validated using samples produced under routine manufacturing conditions. An internal company protocol was prepared and executed in conformance with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135:1994, Medical Devices - Validation and Routine Control of Ethylene Oxide Sterilization. All Cross-Pilot Turbo Elite Support Catheters 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. Package integrity was initially validated in conjunction with sterilization studies.

TECHNILOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The Spectranetics Cross-Pilot Turbo Elite Support Catheters have the same technical characteristics as the Terumo 5Fr Radifocus Optitorque (GlideCath) and the Asahi Angiographic Catheters (Slip-Cath XL), the predicate devices. Both devices feature a stainless steel braided shaft for aided support and torque response and a tapered tip.

CONCLUSION

The Spectranetics Cross-Pilot Turbo Elite Support Catheters are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
